  • I remember visiting my family in Brasil some 20 years ago. Lots of stores had their own financing-long-term offers. People would then continue buying without bothering with details, each buy would add to a total sum.

    There’s no way to check if the total amount was correct, without including the % they had to pay for the credit, which changed every month.

    A tedious task most people didn’t bother with.

    I took a look and it was so wrong, but written with so much confidence, that everyone thinks, that’s it. The correct answer.

    When i told him that, he just waved it away.

    For many this is like “at last i can see what the devs really do, how much code they write, how long it should take.”
