Not much to update on the Brogrammer situation but I did laugh when I saw him in a meeting, playing with a Rubix cube.
A few days later I walked past his desk and he was watching some Let’s Play of a strategy game like Command & Conquer. Usually, if people are chilling, they will put it in a small window even though it’s not even that inconspicuous. The Brogrammer had it full-screen; maximum chill. To be fair, I do hear him ask a lot of questions about code, so he is putting in effort. I just love his brogramming style though.
He was saying how he loves challenging himself to do things he is intimidated by, so he volunteered to present the team’s work to the department. He said he came up with the idea of using Text To Speech instead of actually speaking. His team members thought he was joking but he seemed very pleased with his idea. One guy asked him to speak to the Product Owner about it, because ultimately they would be responsible for the presentation. His reply was;
“mate, you haven’t heard it; it is proper sick!”
