Lazy Programming

A pet peeve of mine. When a programmer could have clocked out 5 minutes later and made his product better.

Example #1: when you open the door of a microwave it should stop beeping automatically. You've clearly heard the alert and you're actively responding to it by taking your leftovers out. You've done everything the microwave demanded of you, but it keeps on beeping. That's lazy coding.

Example #2:

Now, I'm a big fan of Spitfire, but somebody in the office spends too much time playing video games.

btw, the "something" that went wrong was I replaced my motherboard and CPU, and had to re-authorize several products. Not just the Spitfire ones. But every other one, e.g. Kontakt, came right out and explained the problem. "ERROR #1"? Seriously?

If you click on "LET'S FIX IT" you are taken to a YouTube video, and even it doesn't come right out and tell you what you need to know.
