## Make it look like you are working
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Often, we find ourselves running a script or query that will take a significant amount of time to run. usually, you can leave that script open and enjoy some guilt-free procrastination.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now, what if you could write a script that seems to be one of the above scripts to any onlookers, but in looks only? You could put it up on a screen and enjoy days of kitten livestreams before anyone realised that all the complicated rigmarole on the screen didn't have anything to do with your actual job.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Your challenge is to write this script !
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## A good solution will:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Make something appear on the screen that looks like a script is doing work. "Screen" can be terminal, browser, etc.
|
||
|
|
- Be fairly original (yes, we've all seen the neverending progress bar programs)
|
||
|
|
- Survive cursory examination by a technical person
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## A bad solution will:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Get you fired
