STATUS: Who thought it was a good idea to leave a marking pen in the same shape and size as a whiteboard pen lying next to a whiteboard? Also, someone has misplaced the whiteboard cleaning fluid so it can't be removed. (It's also resisting the "ugly hack" method of just drawing it over with a whiteboard pen and erasing it.)
Sadly, nobody had drawn something rude with it, so no irremovable penis fun.

Getting deeper into the code written by S04E05 guy, I am getting madder and madder. Everything he wrote is subtly wrong and buggy and just plain crappy.
I remember I felt irrationally put off by this guy. But since he technically solved the test, that was enough for boss to go ahead and hire him.
I wish I had followed my gut and blocked him. Everything he touched had turned to shit.

Status: So we have to hook up to city sewer. A few weeks ago I chose a contractor and signed a contract, etc. Since then it has been a little difficult to get a timeline from them on when they will be here. As part of this hookup we have to change all of the waste lines in the house so that instead of draining to the back of the house where the septic system is they will have to run out the front of the house where the sewer lateral is stubbed out. I am going to be doing that part myself as the waste lines in this house are a total messed up clusterfuck. Repair on top of repair over the years and just a total mess of fittings that can all be simplified.
So I need to know when they are coming. No big deal on when. I just need to know so I can plan accordingly. A week and a half ago they came and located all the utilities so I expected a call from them to let me know when they would be here. Nothing. So I call on Tuesday and he tells me he will be here on Wednesday. -sigh- So I start to prep and get a text an hour later that something had come up and they would be here on Thursday. Yesterday I call and he says that because of the weather it would be next week. So I change my plan again and realize a way I can do 75% of it over the weekend and then do the final 25% when they come to dig the sewer line in.
So this morning I am talking with the wife at ~8:15am:
"So what is on your agenda for today since you are not working on plumbing?"
"@polygeekery: "I have some marketing stuff to finish up for the Initrode deal and some invoicing to do and if I get around to it there are some things I want to change on our build process to streamline things..." -doorbell rings- "Hold on, let me go see who the hell is ringing the doorbell this early in the morning."20 minutes later...
"Who was that?"
"The sewer contractor. Scratch what I said earlier, I am doing plumbing today."Fucking hell. I have never once nagged them to get started. Hell, I have been procrastinating on it because I really hate doing plumbing work. I merely wanted them to let me know when they would be here and give me a few days notice. It is a good thing I did not plan client meetings for today since they said they would not be here. All I have is a call at 11.

I was out working with the clearing saw a couple of days ago. I was just getting wamed up and into my groove when I lost the bloody nut. Fuck. And it's the kind that you screw on the wrong direction too, so I didn't have any spares. Impossible to find it among the bushes, so I had to call it a day.
Got new ones today, and immediately made one modification:
Why do they not sell them like this?

Status: Currently trying to explain to my brother that
a) an "ID" (as in "unique identifier") and a "category" are not equal unless the categories are also unique and mapped one-to-one and
b) it's a bit confusing when his adresses for table A sport an ID while the categories in table B also sport IDs but nothing else and
c) categories are mapped to adresses by said IDs and
d) if he only gives me 1% of the data and expects me to make sense of this stuff.
I assume that he wants to map the categories to adresses. He's got about 6,000 adresses but only 500 entries in the category table. I just told him to give me the whole dataset (and not some random copy&paste job from Excel) and let me make sense of that.

Why does the Event Listeners tab in Chrome's developer tools not show "click" event listeners? Were they afraid that might make the browser too useful?
EDIT: Oh I see, it doesn't show event listeners added by browser extensions at all. Yeah, probably for the best, imagine how useful that information might be if I had it!
