How are you doing @dfox?

@ScriptCoded thanks for filling it out!

And yes they are angled, as my idea is build on agreeing with the statements :)

Of everyone disagrees it is a bad idea, and that is also good to know as i then can stop working on it

Well not thst date but i am still with the date after that one :D

@electrineer exactly what i wanted to comment 🤣

That is awesome, good luck!

Since windows 7 the network troubleshooter has been pretty reliable :D

Except the day job is: Trying to code, while the manager keeps bothering you.

@dfox & @trogus

@C0D4 glad to see that you are also still around since 2016 :)

@ScriptCoded that was also how I was thinking.

However I just left the building and now just able to close this chapter is worth more to me than a possible legal pay out that is going to drag on for months.

@NoMad @tosensei well the problem is that the overtime compensation was verbally agreed upon, yes stupid me.

so a judge has to believe my word against theirs, so it is going to be more a legal hassle that that is worth...

@NoMad . I got my personal project out there (ranted a few times about it) as it originally started as my graduation project at their company. Which is more than enough for me.

I am just happy to be done at that place, worked there for 6 years in different capacities and functions, currently Lead developer of an entire division but there was always something.

@alturnativ 🤣

Sorry had a crazy weekend, @Frederick well to explain i have to break down the name and explain a little:

It is part of a base http library I use in everything I make to make api calls really easy

HttpServer is just a wrapper of a .Net http client that has no base adress.

ServerHttpServer is with the base adress set to a server

AuthorisedServerHttpService.... is with authorization handled and set. Calls made before authorization is finished will just wait.

The above classes do also exists because e.g. the ServerHttpService is used to call the login api's to authorize the AuthorisedServerHttpService.
They also have an interface version I*HttpService

An IHttpService is supplied in the constructor of an abstract class CrudService, which has basic Get, Post, Put and Delete handeling.

Now other classes extend this CrudService, e.g. LoginCrudService, UserCrudService, ProfileCrudService, in which tou define the API call with appropriate request and response models.

Based on which IHttpService you provide in the contructor it goes to an specific base adress and handles Authorizarion.

So when I start typing for example ServerHttpService Intelly sence wil show all the types of thosr and if i short it it will not and be really inconvenient.

@Frederick will explain later, started typing but no time anymore

@tosensei well there is indeed also an interface version of it, but not the factory stuff 🤣

Well sometimes it goes out of hand also:

I once ended up with AutoRenewTokenRetryOnceOnUnauthorizedAuthorizedServerHttpService, was a class name though

@Lensflare also want to reply with sort off, last year i fixed an board that had some burned traces, just rerouted them with cables and it worked again

Even worse, reading the full exception message can safe you hours of debugging.

Happend to me recently, did not notice the exception changed half way trough

Welcome 😄

I soo agree to this!

At work I have the policy that they can just call me and if I dont pick up or dismiss the call that means i do not have time.

And they still message me first "can i call you?" :/

H(Y)ellooow

Whahaha i like twist ending jokes

@TenHands welcome to devrant!

@TeachMeCode yes it does. I also was sceptical till i tried it out

It is actually not that uncommon. Most login api's will return 200 even when it is a failed login. This includes Google etc.

That's why I do it also on login, on other occasions I use Bad request though

@piratefox it was a great experience, learned allot, made friends, learned to follow my dreams and I am still doing so, it was not in vane

@hjk101 oh definitely true, but you also know that that is not the mainstream we are talking about or the Linux we are talking about.

I can even imagine that the manager in this story had there products running on a Linux server 🤣

Oh help

That really is crazy, i hope he is not a manager of the development team or someone you have to deal with often.

I am not even a Linux user but this is just absurd, I even can imagine a time that Linux will be mainstream

@piratefox oh sadly the start up went under sadly enough.... Still vriends with them though.
