It's probably hot as hell in that doghouse is why.
That if it’s cold and he likes to lay in that little ray of sun.
it's a nice day out, who wouldn't want to nap on the roof? I call it multi-functional.
Yea I imagine it would be awful inside there on a hot day.

engineer: we have had an experienced technical writer on the team for a year and involved them in every user-facing process, we did six rounds of A/B testing for all documentation and operation, and we've produced a manual which basically qualifies for a pullitzer.

At one of my past jobs I wanted to institute a "put a dollar in the jar" rule every time someone made a useless bug report.
"The site is down" -> dollar in the jar.
"I'm trying to access the site via the public internet in firefox 136.0.3, and I'm getting a 500 on [request], and then the whole page is blank. Here's a screenshot." -> good
Sometimes people don't know. Sometimes they don't care. But if there's no consequences, people aren't going to change. And if they're not going to change, at least we can do a team lunch every week with the jar full of money.
@The_Picard_Maneuver If anyone thinks their interface or instructions are idiot proof, I’m the tester for that. My ND brain invents ways to overthink instructions and I can mess things up they think are foolproof. I have a black belt in the fool part. Like this dog here.❤️
I love using interns for this type of stuff at work. They are most likely not idiots but still young and dumb to discover issues in my process....
