Default Re: OT: Bug versus Feature

I work with internal customers and they call anything that doesn't work whether it is a design flaw or poor coding as a bug. If the program or application does not work as expected then it has a bug.

I can never tell my customers that the problem is technically not a bug it is a design flaw. I would rightfully get my butt chewed.

Comments like "bugs can not be caused by poor design" or "its a feature not a bug" did get me upset. I took those comments as resistance to the idea of drones having recon capability and wondered why all the hostility to the idea. I then felt that my idea of using drones for recon was being attacked and that any criticism of SEIV was taboo.

I think I was wrong, but as some of my Posts were interpreted incorrectly, I may have interpreted other Posts incorrectly.
