lucky seven

After work yesterday, I went to my first perlmongers meeting. (well, I actually went to a meeting at UCSD in August to hear Damian Conway speak, but that was sorta a special occasion). I met some interesting people (Joel, Bob, Billy, Cathy with a 'C', and Amil) and even tho' we didn't talk about Perl all that much, it was just an all-around enjoyable good time. Anyway, what I really wanted to write about is that I've learned about a new website, thedailywtf.com, and decided to check it out today. Today's post was not showing "wtf" code, but still about people writing ridiculously stupid code. The post is about a problem a Dutch bank is having with its ATM matchines.: the machines don't allow people with the number "7" in their pin to access their accounts. Who says "7" is a lucky number? ;)
