I've never heard it called "Situation Theta" before, but I like the name. Unfortunately, I don't have a strategy for detecting those. So currently, I just waste my time trying to get the code path(s) executed and corrected, only to be told by the client that "Oh...that feature never worked, and we don't really need it anyway.". <sigh...>

If you're a nine-to-fiver, it's a real bummer. If you're a contractor, at least they get to pay for the time!

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
