all other employers demand modern technologies
There are a lot of employers that’ll throw good money at you for maintaining and extending their outdated crap. Have you ever considered learning COBOL?

They played us for complete fools!
Unless it’s a Sidewinder, or if you’re really fancy an AMRAAM
An American air-to-air missile modified for naval use, deployed on a land based Warsaw Pact launcher. Now that’s something!
Heck, the average SUV is taller than a Panzer I.
Better yet: Fuck’em without breaking the contract.
Currently out of stock, but what about
use English;
use strict;
Yea, an Airline Tycoon mod/dlc would have been nice.
I don’t want to build car hell yet again
this, so much
tunefind when I hear something I like while binge watching, and occasionally to see what others seem to enjoy these days (although that only matches in say 10-15% of the cases).
wekan
When atlassian acquired trello, I exported some of my boards to see if wekan could import them - to my surprise, it could (at least for the kinds of features I used).
Since I despise Excel (mostly for the auto converting feature) I appreciate that alternative.
OTOH I am all but a typical user, and while I occasionally use LibreOffice Calc I prefer basic statistics and charts for SQL-tables and CSV-like data in LINQPad (since it’s the tool I use every day, i.e. to spike out ideas before using a real IDE).
non-moving home devices
There still is a use case - not that common in America but very common in (not only Europe’s) metropolitan areas:
If the devices are located in a dense urban residential area (say Berlin Gropiusstadt in the 11th of 20 floors) you have a lot of neighbors with wifi, and - at least on 2.5GHz - roughly a third of their wifis will use the same or overlapping frequency range. In the evening, when everyone and her dog streams the newest Season of Bridgerton those will send relatively short bursts for buffering the next five-ish(?) minutes.
This of course interferes with your measurement if you happen to measure at exactly the same time, so having multiple samples instead and providing an aggregated value is - for this scenario - more helpful.
OTOH: it all depends on the use case of those appliances - if you don’t have competitive gamers who wonder why they sometimes lag in your valued customer list, that’s a non issue (and if they actual were competitive gamers, they should use an ethernet/fiber cable instead of wifi, obviously).
And you probably did not get that much time allocated to add the delay, so going with another variant could get you in trouble if it’s taking too long.
Then sneak in a test case that fails if the commit is made by Ron and ask Ron to implement it in an hour, all tests green. 😈
Instead I’d probably take multiple measurements some hundred milliseconds apart and do a basic statistical analysis (average as “main result”, but also lowest percentile, highest percentile and median). That way I don’t feel dirty for tricking the customer.
And while you’re at it, could you bring some wine and cake to GeoCities?
Yea, there are 50 game engines written in rust - or so I heard.
Just rewrite it with 80% functionality and force migrations on the users. Once the remaining 20% “edge cases” that require serious effort hop to the next job - where you where hired to “maintain” such a system and “just add a small feature here and there”. Ooops.
