    Not a teacher, per se, but the senior dev on my old team once said something that left me scratching my head. We were trying to troubleshoot an inconsistent bug in our software, and I said, “Maybe it’s a race condition,” to which he replied, “There’s no such thing.”

    Still trying to figure out what he meant by that.

      Dude only ever wrote single threaded software, that’s his secret sauce to avoid race conditions

          10/10 joke

          n’avoir pas (verb goes in the middle)

          /joke

          I know it still needs to be conjugated. I also accept the possibility that I could be wrong.

              Ahh, I didn’t get to that part of my French classes, lol

              I learned that “ne” and “pas” are like a sandwich, and the verb stuff being negated is the sandwich contents, so that stuck with me. Lol

              Thanks for the correction!
