W.A.D.N.A.I - Works As Designed Not As Intended

W.A.D.N.A.I is one of my best, most favorite acronyms. I came up with a few years ago in the face of... well.. a W.A.D.N.A.I. situation.

Definition:

W.A.D.N.A.I. - Works As Designed Not As Intended. (Pronounced Wad-Nye)
When the software you've written does exactly what it is supposed to do - it works as designed.  But, it does not do what the end user (or the fool who wrote the specification).  Does not work as intended.

It's a pretty easy to blunder into a WADNAI.   Either the client did a lousy job of telling you what they really wanted, either because they didn't know or because you didn't get to the heart of the requirements.

The only advice I have from my own WADNAIs is:  Don't accept all the blame, they helped you get here.  But don't think you're going to get off scott free - you gotta fix it.

Hanging a the Tiger drinking Six Poimt

Just stepping out of the Blind Tiger after enjoying some really great Six Point beer. The Blind Bengali Tiger, a cask served IPA with a smack of peaches was just over throat moon good. May have had one pint too many but I'm feeling good. The Six Point brewers are great guys.
