Toward Software Quality Perfektion
summary
Satirical claim: eliminating code eliminates bugs, so the path to “quality” is to shrink or remove engineers and re-release the same binaries under new version numbers. Evidence is mock metrics and a pseudo-formula called the equivalence theorem of code (lines × files × statements × conditions, squared) plus charts showing a refactor that spikes bugs until an engineer is fired. Proposed tactics include remove internet/intranet/workstations and hire more managers; all presented as comic, not empirical, prescriptions.
