well, as the vendor, i'm one of the two parties who determines
'fault'...
if i write bad code and i spend a day figuring out that i wrote bad
code cuz it won't work in a browser, i eat that time...
if i'm doing something brand new for the client (like a Java ticker)
that i haven't done before, then all that time is billable... but that
was covered up-front in the scope and the quote...
if it's somewhere in between, it depends on the client... sometimes
i write it off, other times i bill it, other times i go halfsies,
sometimes i pretend i'm eating a junior mint and skiing down the
slopes of the alps... sometimes i feel like a nut... sometimes i
don't...
