Y más WTF

El mes pasado me pasaban una viñeta sobre la medida WTF para las Code Reviews. Hoy la han dejado caer de nuevo por mi trabajo y alguien contestó con esta otra web, The Daily WTF, que seguro que alguno conocerá, pero que yo no conocía y es realmente graciosa.

Me ha llamado la atención que el primer post de hoy es de un chaval de Barcelona que trata de "pedirle ayuda" a alguien que había publicado unos tutoriales de estructuras de datos en Internet. Habiendo publicado bastantes tutoriales y artículos en Internet, yo también recibí en su tiempo montones de correos eventuales de gente que te contactaba para ver si le ayudabas con las prácticas, proyectos, empresas, etc. Eso sí, nunca me habían llegado a ofrecer dinero por hacer una práctica. No tiene desperdicio :)

Dear Rob

First of all sorry for my English isn't really good : -) Well , my name es ***** ***** and I'm computer ( last year ) student in politechnical
University of Catalonia (barcelona SPAIN ). I'm writing you because

I need help in computer graphics and I'm totally desperate. The situation
is the following, I'm doing the last courses of my studies and also working ,
no way i need earn money . Conclusion, no time for be focus in all the
subjects...and particularly computer graphics subject. I have to submit a
computer graphics project for the next Monday until 8,30 am, and really for
me impossible to do it, no time, poor computer grapichs knowlodege ,etc,etc..

So i was looking on internet good example and i found your web page.. and i
decide to write you for do a business.

Probably for you my project will be easy to manage, because is an introduction
subject of computer graphics, and maybe you don't need to spend more than 4
hours.. for the reason if you want I can pay you 150 ? for this first part
and 150 ? more for the second part.. if you are agree. I'm not a reach man is
a effort for me pay all this money but as i said you I'm totally desperate and
i will do but i think is a reasonable price.

So if you are interested this is my proposition :

- Give me response to my proposal
- If you are agree more or less agree i send you my project translate (the
original is in catalan) -We can arrange the way for pay you, by PayPal, your
own bank account, as you prefer...
- I send you the money according ( I will have trust ... no other way to do it.. )
- You send me the project , finish of course before Sunday (the deadline for
submit the project is on Monday 26 of November until 8:30 pm )

Best Regards,
