(though you do see houses on the road quite a lot, because one of the most inexpensive ways to build a house is from prefabricated units which get trucked in and stacked together. Like a classy trailer park)
It is also one of the fastest ways to build a 21-story hotel.

Status: Puppy has swallowed a needle, with a thread attached! They are going to try and remove it with anesthesia. We have puppy-proofed the house, have absolutely no idea where the little devil has found the fucking needle. Perhaps in our friend's house visit.
Puppies are very efficient at finding shit like that... My boy once ate a 6ft strip of fleece (a friend was making a braided leash) - pulled most out of his mouth before it snapped. Later, pulled a bit out of his butt before it wouldn't (that was "fun". And messy). $700 later... (barium series + xrays - luckily everything passed naturally)

status: Studying the pre-publication release of Haskell Programming from First Principles, which the Developers of Athens/Classic City Developers group is doing a book club on. I went to the book club meeting last night, only to realize that we were covering chapter 3 as well as chapter 2 (I had read most of 2, so I already expected to be behind), so I want to be ready for the next one in two weeks (they might have an informal coffee-house chat Labor Day evening, but if not then it will be the week after). I don't want to lose track of time like I did last week.
So far, the book is damn good; the first chapter, on basic lambda calculus, explained things I have been trying to get a better understanding of for twenty years. It's $60 for pre-order-plus-beta-preview, but definitely looks likely to be worth it.

@Tsaukpaetra Does this database (or spreadsheet, or whatever) not have date-formatted attributes/cells/table entries/whatever, or did the developer simple not know how to use them?

I have the feeling this is a sliced file. I.e. not delimited, all the "columns" are supposed to be a particular width, etc.
What we're seeing is pieces of the slice that may or may not have been sliced correctly due to un-relayed changes upstream.

@Tsaukpaetra No. I have used it other times. Before I was able to trick it in to getting me what I wanted. Now the search functionality may as well just trigger a gif that gives me the middle finger.
With noise. Because we have come full circle to goddamn Geocities. I think what these forums are missing is a sparkly animated background and a barely recognizable midi or wav file of some shitty pop music.
Chat is fucked. Search is fucked. I am 1 pixel away from the perfect window size...
But at least has nothing to do with this. :)

@Polygeekery And just to ice the cake, my rant was the post that triggered the off by one pagination error. Good one Node BB. Good one.

Seriously though, you could on Discourse. At least for a while. I vaguely remember @ben_lubar embedding some shitty video game audio snippets.

23.07.2016 15:53:36 : Service started 23.07.2016 16:07:06 : Database connection failed
Yes, that service hasn't run for over a month. Because it couldn't find the database and then immediately noped out, no further entries in the log (until today).
Of course, the log this is pasted from is the ONLY PLACE where you could see any of that.
(Apart from the things it's supposed to do not happening, I guess)And of course, the service has been written by former coworkers.

Considering that their text chat support had a 105 minutes waiting time, maybe that was actually a smart response.
Still not very customer friendly, though.

My KeePass data has a name something like that. It was my first "How does this thing work?" experiment which turned into the actual data when the answer was found to be "pretty simple," and I never bothered to rename it.
