DevOps, so mostly scripting and sometimes maintaining legacy Windows forms.

Omg that is going way too far, I personally wouldn't put up with shit like that

9am meetings are bullshit, I say.

Don't forget tornadoes and the lingering threats of a nuclear war...Equifax getting pwned...

But next year, pot will be legal in Canada so there's always that to look forward to!

Shouldn't that be "ourselves?" I don't see why it should be your failure if I can't express myself with code...

That hurts my brain, I don't understand why that would be necessary.

@isaacWeisberg huh? Did you also lose your beloved sunglasses and update your avatar in memory, or am I missing something?

I usually can't stand rants re: avatars but I enjoyed yours. Sorry about your shades!

Cant you get your own router and just use the isp's modem? That's what I do...then you can lock it down as much as you want.

Just make sure you are compensated accordingly and don't burn yourself out. Mentors can be a crutch sometimes.

My main fuckups have been making booboos in prod. I learned to be more careful and luckily I was always able to fix my fuckups.

Imho fuckups are 100% acceptable iff it becomes a learning experience. It's one of my pet peeves when people are afraid to admit they fucked up. Admit your mistakes, learn from them, and move on.

Wasn't Equifax, was it?

I can totally relate but I never thought it was dev-related. I asked a counselor about it once and she said it was normal /shrug

C# supports String as well as string. I just hate when people use both, so ugly

@bighead glad I could help

I have wwaayy bigger beefs with ssms than colour theme. It feels like they've just been reusing the same old UI components and putting new ones on top. Db restore failed? To try again, add a space to the DB name and erase it or okay button is disabled. Bbaahh. Even in latest ssms the file picker for backups from file are ancient.

As for auto format, it would definitely be nice...you know, you can use Visual Studio to write SQL, idk if it auto formats tho. You can execute SQL too from VS

Automating what? O.o

I use Windows for work and play and the only time it holds me back is when I type `ls` in command prompt. But they're switching it to default to PowerShell so I'm golden.

Windows sometimes annoys me, but you know what? So did Linux when I used to use it. iOS is the worst but I won't go there...the os is just a tool and you use the tool most appropriate for your needs. Stop the damn hate.

Maybe ditch that "friend"

We use Jira at work. It's not bad, lots of customizability. I don't think it's cheap to license, though.

Let your ide settings worry about it

The dev team where I work just did that. Takes FOREVER to open any of the solutions. Luckily I usually am only modifying files outside of any of the projects (ie deployment scripts) so I can avoid opening dem sln's

I wish I had a pet Panda that I could sic on people 😈

File explorer doesnt give you an admin token for security reasons, I always use smb on another PC and access c$ (ie \\prodweb1\c$\inetpub). Has to done from another computer. Or use PowerShell or cmd as admin to do it

Open Dev tools in chrome and tell it not to cache while you have Dev tools open

Is yours higher or lower?

Yes.

@theScientist I did the exact same thing!

I was so sad when they stopped updating

The second one lets you see the count and not the final index in 0-based arrays which is why I like it...

for (int i = 0; i < myList.Count; i++) { ...
