Having recently picked up woodworking after building my own office desk, this hit rather close to home.

I'm a software engineer who does woodworking, and I approve this message.

But my favorite explanation: you grab your hand saw, and it works. You don't find out that the latest npm japanese-hand-saw-tooth package is incompatible with plywood, and you need to downgrade the package or buy new plywood to make a cut.

Japanese handsaws aren't good for plywood? I've not got one yet so I've not experienced that for myself.

It's a joke about software development tools breaking in dumb ways, and that it's not a problem with saws

Oh, alright. Just thought there was something i should know about pull saws before I finished put my money on it and I wanted to make sure. Thanks
