Status: The only thing I've made significant progress on so far today is, in idle moments, some concept art for a story I'm writing (and even on that I've hit a rather knotty problem).
I do not have the tools to do my job.

Did I say I don't?
That's harsh, some of my team are great (though that includes the guy who just left), others are lovely people even if they write some interesting code sometimes.

@Onyx Status no one corrected me that I should've said consistently instead of inconsistently. You're slipping, WTDTF!

Well, except no one can get to our app because
of config reasons we don't have control over.some team moved the load balancer but didn't open up the same ports on the new machine so connectivity was broken.

Status: Thinking of Paragon again.
I've played four PvP matches and won two of them, once doing crazily well. People spam notifications and try to all stand next to eachother at the start of the game and start with a teamfight, which seems crazy to me. Allies also avoid me at all costs when I play as Sparrow, meaning I just die a bunch at the beginning, because I can't retreat. Seriously, I think I had five deaths once!
It's like people have no experience with the genre. Which can't be true.

I'm on a bit of a movie binge right now.
I just finished "Young ones", a futuristic semi-apocalyptic western. Very interesting world building and story structure. Beautiful cinematography. Satisfying ending. Pretty great movie overall!
As usual, I go to IMDB to see what other people say.
WTF!? 5.9 stars!?
That's after giving 7.2 to that tone-deaf snore The Equalizer and fucking 7.7 to that even worse incomprehensible pile of director's excrement Man on Fire!?
That's it, I lost all fate in IMDB star ratings.

@cartman82 Another movie that totally got a bad rap - Snake Eyes with Nicolas Cage and that CSI guy. Fantastic direction (Brian De Palma at his peak), interesting mystery, some pretty spectacular scenes (watch that assassination scene, a work of art).
Yet, it got 5.9. Another 5.9. WTF IS UP WITH 5.9!?
At the same time, garbage like the Hobbit trilogy hovers around 8. There's no justice in this world.
BTW, this should totally be a thread.

It... might be?
A bunch of guys in the mysterious box of a department known only as the "Project Management Office" decided to mandate a "new process" that (apparently) tries to implement... something something Agile Scrum blurga, based on the previous SDLC process that (kinda sorta almost) worked in JIRA, and shove everyone to TFS, because MKS was no longer being licensed and we had to get off and OMG STUFF HAPPENED OK.
There's a ton of things that the process ignores and assumes and gets wrong, but for this project, I'm actually going to attempt to do it Their Way, and see what it's like.
This was the Business Requirements Document (BRD), and I'm not technically supposed to have done anything yet (until approvals, and then more documents get written and approved, and then I can start designing, then get that document approved, and then... yeah, apparently we're into documents and sign-offs here).

@blakeyrat said in The Official Status Thread:
You might have to be a little more specific.
Meh. Last time I asked about such a utility, it was in pretty much the same way, and a bunch of people reccomended the same one. I have it installed at work, so I'll find out tomorrow. Was hoping RED BOOB to run it on my home computer tonight.

Sorry. Having a job means a lot less time for TDWTF, especially since I don't want to go anywhere near TDWTF on the work computer, and at least on my ancient, obsolete device, NodeBB on mobile is almost completely unusable โ even worse than Discourse, if you can believe that.

Is it performance concerns, or usability? Because I did pretty well on a P4 piece of crud with 512 Mb RAM and 2 GHz Single-core processor on Chrome.

Status: Was wondering why my computer's fan was going like crazy. Tried looking at all sorts of Chrome tabs, but nothing seemed to be going crazy, not even WTDWTF. Then remembered that I'm building a new version of clang in the background. The dumb must be strong with me this morning, since I've already had plenty of coffeeโฆ

Status: I hate, hate, hate things that have hidden state that you can't easily get at when it gets screwed up.
I've broken Entity Framework code-first. I changed a string property to an enum and when that exploded and I couldn't fix it I changed it back again. Nope still spouting:
error 3004: Problem in mapping fragments starting at line 17:No mapping specified for properties IncomingDataParsing.Status in Set WireDataParseStatus. An Entity with Key (PK) will not round-trip when: Entity is type [xxx.BackingDatabase.DAL.Database.IncomingDataParsing]
I'm not making a new project, I'm going to find where it's keeping whatever piece of broken information is causing this and adjust its attitude.
Edit: Now it's working. I have no idea why. Maybe aliens...that would also explain the lack of bog-roll this morning.

@JazzyJosh Is it just me or does this emojicon look like a bra above a road in a dark theme?
Or is it @Luhmann's afro ladies that are finally catching up with me?

@cartman82 I learned that anything involving SciFi-ish themes that's not a blockbuster will hover in that range. I watched many a fun movie that IMDB rated as shit.

Gah what's wrong now???
Oh I edited a pom.
Which fucking pom? There is at least 10 of them!
Let me check which one in git.
When did I put them in git?

The multi-hour coffee-break while waiting for this to finish is getting a bit old. Colleagues are busy with other stuff, so nobody is up for some office-chair-jousting either.

Status: that'll teach me to answer a question directed at me.
Hey just remember: I already know I'm a moron stupid idiot dumbass insane illiterate fucking retard, ok? You don't need to keep asking me leading questions to point that out. My self-esteem is already at -47, you can not possibly lower it.
But by all means, keep trying.
