Division of Labor

Three frames. Frame 1: People are gathered and holding drinks. A woman asks two men what they do. One says he's in movies and the other says he's in music. Frame 2: The first man proudly states he works on pixel 740, 23. The woman says that's weird and the man asks "What about my friend." Frame 3: The other man says he handles all the sounds between 402 and 403 hertz.

All Saturday Stories and Sunday Comics are works of pure fiction. Any similarity between persons depicted therein is purely coincidental.

These are common themes that run throughout a great many software development organizations.

If you think something in here is about you, you are mistaken...but you should probably look into whatever it is that makes you think that.
