If you'd meant QA, you would have said QA, not engineering. You don't want engineers doing QA, which you would also know if you actually worked in the industry. They're notoriously bad at it. You'd also know that a test cycle takes a certain amount of time, and for something as complex as OS X, that amount is going to be measured in days per configuration, and there's nothing you can do about that -- adding more people will, again, just slow it down. Admit you don't know what you're talking about and move on. Or just stop talking, whatever.


I worked at Apple, in that department, so yes, I'm aware of what I'm saying and why.

Stop trying to acquire internet points by being a jerk.

Please have the bridge delivered to my home between noon and six.

(Though, really, I should just accept this absurd statement, since it amounts to you admitting your own incompetence.)

> Stop trying to acquire internet points by being a jerk.

This from the guy who decided his scintillating contribution to the thread would be redundantly accusing people of "apologism" and "incompetence". You do understand the people who actually do work at Apple are human beings, and that you are flinging insults at them, right?


> Please have the bridge delivered to my home between noon and six.

Why? Do you not already have a bridge to troll under?

> You do understand the people who actually do work at Apple are human beings, and that you are flinging insults at them, right?

Yes, and I know who they are.
