We looked at the light fixture and decided there's no point trying to maintain it. We're going to rewrite it fromscratch. Only one, but she's not available. She's the only programmer we have who can get the software ready to ship to customers, and that's higher priority, you know. Of course, as everyone knows, just five years ago all it took was a bunch of kids in a garage in Palo Alto to change a light bulb.
Real programmers prefer LEDs.
24 hours - 3 minutes to put in the bulb, the rest of the time to compile all the libraries. You're still thinking procedurally. A properly designed light bulb object would inherit a change method from a generic light bulb class, so all you'd have to do is send a light bulb change message. Aw shucks, I was going to reuse it. One, but he needs the seal of approval from Nintendo before he can put his light-bulb in their socket.
