@6ee90ca1@717a4fb4 A worker that calls up at midnight to say, "Hold on, you'll be late if you do it that way," doesn't have performance problems. A person like that who does not excel in your environment you've set up is not excelling because you've created an environment in which they can't. These people suck.
Who calls at midnight like that? Someone struggling to sleep at night worrying about how well they're setting you up to succeed. Like, a mental incapacity to put the problem down.
@f8d9bc1c That would be so great. I miss it a great deal. Used to come as a standard part of any internet connection and now the servers are almost impossible to find. I gave up like a decade ago. Miss my comp.lang.*
@f8d9bc1c Also, true story. Was a frequent participant of the comp.lang.* groups (especially c related langs where you could rub elbows with bjarne and meyers. Someone posted a block of gibberish that I spent hours deciphering--discovering base64 like some code cracking guru only to be greeted by...goatse. People today don't even know what that is.
