Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

I made a mistake in my dates and so I have a few chapters to edit and upload and I have work tomorrow morning. Gonna be rough.

So, to make myself feel better, what are you time crunching this week?

At work we have a contractual design deliverable that was due yesterday, I still can't get anybody to tell me what I'm supposed to be designing/building. I've got the contract, but its so vague that it's more unhelpful than it is helpful and there's apparently been 9 months of conversations with the customer, none of which have included engineering, nor has anything from them been written down. So we're designing something just based on rumors.

So we're in crunch mode, but also we don't know what we're trying to accomplish... ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

That sucks.

Talks without any documentation is as if it didn't happen.

Yep, I'm genuinely unsure if the conversations actually happened or not. I've gotten different answers to that from different people.
