@jws Is Swift like that I wonder…

@matigo Because schools are useless these days and kids leave them half educated. I should be careful what I say because my grammar is not too great.
@matigo Does the fun and fascination of adopting a language outweigh the effort needed to acquire it and juggle both?
@joeo10 That’s the kind of thing the aristocrats don’t think about when they hand down their edicts.
@matigo So the other guy doesn’t read complaint emails and that makes your software look bad? Catch-22. Is there some way you can stop doing the work he ought to be doing but also deflect the inevitable repercussions, so they go in the direction of him or his manager?

@matigo If he was sending complaints straight into the bin for eight years, I suspect you won’t be able to get him to start doing his job 'properly' now. But it’s not your problem is it? It might be his manager's problem but it sounds like he’s not doing his job properly either (if he’s scared to confront the guy).
