I haaaate stress testing

<vent>

I HATE stress testing code. It's the most boring thing ever, running millions of iterations just to see if something breaks....

Gads, hours of staring at nothing....

Back when I was doing QA, I had 2 stress test video encoding software, hardware, etc, but never code. I know the engineers had to, but luckily I never had to. Sounds like fun.

What do you think I'm dooing right now???
responding to a post on I-Club? No!

I'm stress testing.

Yes it can be booring, if you have to sit and watch it. But it can also provide
you with free time to do as you want.

And that's what the weekend is for, stress testing. Start them off on friday,
come back monday and see what broke!
