An array of length 10?

That rage quit was really lacking in rage, and quit.
Toby Faire, he never did quit, and telling an admin to fuck themselves is so low on his Rage meter that it barely registers above background noise.

Status: Investigating weird Google Drive issue.
Apparently, one of our users magically acquired files in his drive, but they weren't his (and, despite being a "Super Admin", I can't peek in and see it for myself).
So he re-shares one of them to me, and indeed it's owned by someone else outside the organization.
But... how did it appear in our stuff?Nobody can find a shared-with-you notification email, so... bizarre?
Thoughts?

I think Google Drive allows people to share files without sending emails if they uncheck a box. It's a feature I've only ever seen used by spammers.

I had a scary "an item in your Drive has been removed by an administrator" message a few days after my first spam document appeared. Haven't had one since. I'm not in a domain - this was a Google administrator.

If we're the people you hang out with, I'd say you have bigger problems than that.
Eh, you're not that bad as a whole. And it's not like this forum is the only social life I have, just tends to be more prominent than other parts purely on the amount of time spent socializing since I hang out here while at work...

STATUS:
A guy who we all considered a disinterested contractor mercenary started working today full time.
He immediately jumped into planning the new green field app. Full of good ideas and insights. Sharp as a tick.
What a pleasant surprise!
For once, I wasn't the one figuring shit out and telling everyone else what needs to be done. Feels good man.

i'm sorry. truly i am, but the necessity of operating the bot meant that he has to use his words.
i did let him use a handwriting tool that takes his writing and translates it to text though, so he doesn't have to type for the game.

Status: Just fixed a bug that made one of our products completely unusable, as in failure to even load the DLL unusable. This is a product we supposedly sell which customers supposedly use in real-world applications, but I checked the SVN history and this bug has been present since the initial check-in. There is no way it has ever worked.

Yeah... I wouldn't be surprised if it was a cgi application still.
Edit: wtf is a "dgi application"?

Right. Based on my experience watching this kind of thing elsewhere, nobody will monitor it once you're gone, and then six months down the line when it hiccups and fails, nobody will be able to figure out what happened.

Well, I provided the easy-tool, it's embedded as a page in the site that anyone with supervisor-level or above can access.
The not-so-easy is getting someone who knows how to call the job if it fails.So, I'm going to pet -project a way to one-off certain portions of the process just in case. They probably won't use that either.

I would have but I'm also playing
I could make drawings anyway, they just won't have any useful info in them like they usually do. Maybe I could keep all of my game notes in club-ded-drawing format.

Yaawai!
I started to write a rant, but it's too long for the status thread and too long to write on mobile. I've only experienced it as a parent, but from that perspective, the biggest problem is that the whole process assumes that the student and parent are always filling out the form together. If circumstances do not allow both to be in the same place at the same time, it is impossible to submit the application without one or both committing forgery and/or perjury.

Yeah, you know that's not going to be enough, right? The job should actually email someone if it fails.
At my last-but-one job one of my coworkers did something like that. He had a grandfathered cell phone plan with unlimited texts before that was common, and he had some fairly important jobs that he modified to send him a single text around midnight with, basically a go/no go status.
