"Type mismatch : cannot convert from Root<MyClassType> to Root<MyClassType>"
Ok Eclipse, I'm gonna make some coffee for you too.4 -
WTF Is wrong with Kotlin! Every fucking time I upgrade its Android Studio plugin i receive loads of errors about: Type mismatch: inferred type is FragmentActivity? but FragmentActivity was expected
for fucks sake bitch! Why the hell you keep on switching from optional to non optional on every fucking update, my commit history is full of this type of fixes -_-5 -
So, the PowerQuery type system appears to be a Joke.
For those you that aren't familiar with PowerQuery, it's the ETL language that is used in PowerBI, and some other parts of the MS PowerPlatform. It was formerly known as the M Language.
The language has a type system, that includes records (think hashes) and tables, which are, for practical purposes, a list of records.
The wonderful M language specification document states that:
"Any value that is a record conforms to the intrinsic type record, which does not place any restrictions on the field names or values within a record value. A record-type value is used to restrict the set of valid names as well as the types of values that are permitted to be associated with those names."
Except that the restriction is only to the set of valid names, and the language interpreter doesn't throw an error when I place a number into a text field, but also doesn't do any sort of implicit conversion. This is all hunky-dory, until you then try to load the data into the Tabular Model that underlies the query engine, which does expect the values to be of the type that is specified, and it throws an error.
But PowerBI, in its infinite wisdom, doesn't actually *record* the error, it merely tells you the error exists, and tells you to go back to the query editor to list the errors thrown up by the powerquery engine. Which, as previously stated, doesn't throw up an error for this instance.
So I've spent all afternoon trying to work out why my queries aren't loading, because I have an error that doesn't exist. fml.

So i was writing sql query and every time i was getting "data type mismatch error."
In frustrations i slammed the table and went outside for some fresh air.
After 15 minutes i came back and runs the query again. Voila, it is working now.
My god these queries burned half of my blood today. LOL. 😁1 -
```
f = FREEFILE
OPEN test.gfx FOR BINARY AS #f
```
QBasic:
"Type Mismatch: 'AS #f'"
this is literally 1:1 example code with the filename changed, wtf2 -
ioctl with FIONREAD as request
it returns size of bytes ready to read, but to store that size it requires pointer to int passed in va_args
when i want to malloc a memory using that size i need variable of type size_t which is 8 bytes on 64-bit system
why do this types mismatch? if ioctl returns size with FIONREAD request it should accept pointer to size_t variable in va_args
