Memes in Parallels: "The release will be on May 1 ... And today what is May?"
The internal folklore and humor of their developers are in every team, although not every one is carefully collected and archived. But we at Parallels have carefully done this for several years in a row. Not so long ago, we shared a professional dictionary of Parallels developers . And today the next step is the opportunity to look at that section of our intranet, where we keep our memes and jokes. Many of them came from the mid 2000s.

It worked great until I fixed it.
Developer: “Andrei!” Andrei (not looking up from the monitor): “Eh ???” Developer: “The utils_dir field contains the full path?” Andrei (looking up from the monitor): “What ???” Developer: “Damn! I knew it. ”
And you look under the plinth, this implementation of usability is just somewhere there ...
With files containing apostrophe characters in the name, our product cannot work for historical reasons: Andrei is too lazy to do this.
Is it like by design? - It's not that by design, it just happened ...

It is possible to draw analogies of win-users with win-printers and win-modems, these are the same users, only simpler, without brains and memory on board.

QA
B2B is “Bug to Bug”
What you write about did not find, but fixed it.
Smoke-testing is when I put it, smoked and went to write bugs ...
- How are you going to be, from above or below? - Come on, I'll be from below. (About the letter with 79 attachments)
- Pashka, it would be necessary to scoop RT! (~ 50 tickets). - So I have already closed one ticket!
I drove a bug without a log - increased entropy.
Letter heading: daily report 28-31.03
Black box found at the crash site? In the sense, the autoinstaller log from / tmp should be attached to such bugs.
“What's in the log?” - “There is nothing interesting in /tmp/sb_config.log” - “What did you hope to see there? Nude woman? :) "

The recommendation for certification: "Read the literature, undergo rehabilitation, buy an alarm clock."

Weekdays technical support
I found a lot of errors in the log, which means: either the user's hands were shaking with joy, or he had a dirty keyboard.
