I always have one copy of Murphy's law near me. Just do not forget some crucial things and thoughts. "If there are two or more ways to do something, and one of those ways can result in a catastrophe, then someone will do it." "If it can be shown that something that could have gone wrong did not go wrong, then subsequent events will prove that everything would ultimately have turned out better if that thing had gone wrong." "Tolerances will accumulate unidirectionally toward maximum difficulty of assembly." hmmm..... maybe members of GNOME Team would read this accidentally : http://www.murphys-laws.com/murphy/murphy-computer.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defensive_programming > > > > -- > users mailing list > users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe or change subscription options: > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users > Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > Have a question?
