Bit of fun from the NSubstitute docs team!
"partial substitutes are not generally recommended, so avoid them where possible (especially if your code deletes files, contacts payment gateways, or initiates underground lair self-destruct routines)" #NSubstitute #unittesting #tdd

@RyanONeill1970 @rippo @NathanGloyn @troyhunt Yeah letsencrypt even offer wildcard certs now so it's even more awesome.

@RyanONeill1970 Consider yourself lucky that you get to do File->New Project often enough to find it painful! Pretty sure we’ve got .net 2 ado stuff kicking around in some of my projects.

[Ben Godwin @benprog]

Software engineering: The first 90% of a project takes the first 90% of the time. And the last 10% takes the second 90% of the time.

@rippo Cheers @rippo - appreciate the support. Glad I've done it - good to get the experience. Maybe in a few months I'll feel better about it!

[Ben Godwin @benprog]

@rippo Ahh I wish I had the guts! Alas, really don't want to go through that again any time soon!

@rammesses @SmartDevsUg Slide #22: how to avoid being lynched the following day by all the devs in your team when one suggests MDDs!?
