Our clean code heroes put down their keyboards and headphones to repel swarms of zombies, gathered in an elite task force. But that's not all: in the same afternoon, they donned the roles of armored guards, balancing aliens, and civilians assaulted by pirates.
How did they fare? Let's find out together 👀⬇️
Dario: Whoever thought he only made #docker containers run soon had to think again. His intense athletic preparation in the docks of Shanghai (which we'll tell you about soon 🔜) paid off, allowing him to reach the top positions in almost all games. RUN DOCKER RUN 🐳
Andrea: He opens fire on enemies with the same ease with which he adds accordions to #React, covering his colleagues' backs when they're in trouble. With a greater range, he could have cleaned my uncle's PC of spyware. BANGAFEE TOTAL PROTECTION 🛡
Stefano: He shows great dexterity, alternating James Bond-style blows with sudden moonwalks on the playing field. The experience with viewers made him feel like a kid again, like an Eros Ramazzotti single. VISEN-TEEN 🚶
Damiano: With the toy rifle, he transforms into an infallible sniper, capable of even swatting mosquitoes outside. At the end of the simulation, he enters the classic mystical crisis of someone who pushes a hotfix solely on the compiler's guarantee. He's cool because he sacrifices fingertip sensitivity to conquer the top of the leaderboard. SNIPPET ELITE🎯
Davide: He stands out for an enviable (virtual) stride and an excessive throwing of grenades during movement phases. He gains approval thanks to his preference for Far Cry but risks lynching shortly after by suggesting dining outdoors with over 30 degrees Celsius. He is the mind behind this vexatious delirium you are reading. DIRTY READ 🔞
Alessandro (a.k.a. Il Lazza): A true coach – it is known – never steps onto the playing field, but remains to coordinate his players' movements. This is why from the very first minute he takes part in the behind-the-scenes filming, demonstrating directing skills worthy of Andrea Pirlo in his AC Milan days. The direction was just a tad muffled with epithets aimed at his colleagues. MARTIN SCORTESE 🎬
Martina: Affected by a debilitating wrist swelling, she decides to grit her teeth and join the game anyway: here she shows commendable grit, as well as the typical after-effects of a cross-functional #ProductOwner on projects. She resists until the end thanks to a timely delivery of a Brufen from the provident Stefano. ONLY FANS (Non-Steroidal Pain Relievers) 💊
Gabriele: Minimum contribution, maximum yield, thanks to the fresh Franciacorta from his family's cellars, kindly offered. He successfully participates in the first game session, then joins good Lazza in the commentary booth. A #DevOps whose many talents never cease to amaze, just like Rihanna's versatile career. POD DE REPLAY 🎤
Simone: Despite dusting off his 2002 contact lenses, he surprises everyone by sporting questionable green spectacles. In work as in game, he proves he never falters when things get complicated. Too bad only for the unfortunate choice to arrive by motorbike, given the weather forecasts on the eve. WATERFALL 💧
Cristina: She learned the hard way that Lazza's provocations are among the company's cringe benefits, and for this, we stand by her. A good first performance for her too, despite the nagging thought of still needing to sign up for the gym. STAKEHOLDER ON THE GROUND 🏋️♀️
