Woh! What is this thing?!
This is a social bar from the Dilbert team and our friends at Meebo. It is a cool little feature we've added to Dilbert to make sharing comic strips, Mashups and other content, a simple click of the mouse from any page.
Try it out – use the buttons to instantly send the next funny comic you read to your Facebook status or your Twitter feed. We’re adding even more ways to share soon, so check this space often!
As I understand it, the joke is that PHB is the test idiot brought in to validate the idiot-proofing they've already done, hence the "Again?" reply from Dilbert - he is in effect calling PHB an idiot in an indirect way.. I'm only explaining this because based on some of the comments, not everyone got the joke.
@lfleming - it's good to test your code, but hopefully there's someone else independently doing QA testing as well..
By the way, generally speaking, lack of input validation is a common cause of security vulnerabilities (think of things like SQL injection etc.). So it's not only to protect against idiots, but also against people with bad intentions.
I kind of pity PHB here. The poor guy has surprisingly figured out what Dilbert commented (check out PHB's cheeky look in the last pane) and yet he can't do anything about it because Dilbert happens to be one of his indispensable workers. :)
Ha Ha...this is very funny! There are bosses that will make statements like that. They do exist! <a href="http://www.goarticles.com/cgi-bin/showa.cgi?C=1764689">cheap checks</a> <a href="http://www.goarticles.com/cgi-bin/showa.cgi?C=1764689">cheap personal checks</a>
After I fixed the input validations in the UI of the software that I'm working on (to make the inteface idiot-proof). I've attached this strip in my email for the Software Quality Tester who is in-charged in testing my work. This one made her laugh... Nice Job Scott! ^__^
