The Official Status Thread

No, but I realized I was saving a .ascx file while the webapp was running, so I think it wasn't just a save but a "save and reload the entire damned app but don't have any UI to show what's happening".
It actually finished its "whatever", right after I considered killing it.

I don't deal with ASP.NET mumbo-jumbo, so don't look at me for any further advice...

Status: Possibly just found a highly elusive bug thats been a problem for weeks.
Bug summary: I am an idiot.
I had one of those today. When offloading a function to a separate thread, do not pass it arguments from the stack...
Status: …and back into the 5%
So you're the one who kicked me out
-
Status: T-75 minutes till quitting time.... and they can't go by fast enough.
-
Status: 2 hours until quitting time and I can actually start working.
Better status: Used Leap chair at home is good :3

@bridget99, please call your office.

Other status: I think I just figured out why my connection was randomly dropping for about 5 seconds (I added my new UPS into my network between my modem and router)
-
Status: Dwarf Fortress keeps track of a surprising amount of information. I still need to use more of the data. This is just a little bit.

I did my job and Jeff'd a post to an existing topic
Congrats! Party! Let's all have a beer for doing our jobs!

What did you do?
I flushed the toilet! And put the seat down!
Although all that was rather unnecessary when urinating against the wall ...

FML...
Somewhat related to my aforementioned MySQL woes...
Me:
Line manager wrote [regarding email chain about above stuff including a query elsewhere in the DB]:
Carefully avoiding all the real issues… can we find a more elegant name than "[entity in DB in one of my less sane moments] clumps”?
Lump? Nugget? Jumble?
Clot?
More seriously, I also have concerns about the schema in general, having had a bit more experience since creating the original ones.
Me:
Line manager:
Nugget is good!
No it's not...
I'll come up with better nomenclature tomorrow when I rename a few other things that need renaming

Status: Freezing. I need a space heater in here. Or maybe just an old Pentium 4?

Or maybe just an old Pentium 4?
At my last job I had a workstation with two Pentium 4 Prescott processors. I think they may have even been dual-core. I kept the PC on the floor under my desk, and under the desk was easily 20 - 30 degrees warmer than ambient.
(And just now I learned Alt-codes don't work on Linux. My browser freaked out when I tried Alt-0176 to put in the degrees symbol.)

Yeah, that was a space heater first and a computer second.
-
Thanks to thermodynamics, any* device that uses several kW of power works equally well as a space heater.
* Preemptive pedantic note: some might output a non-trivial amount of energy in a different form (like sound) or store it, but that's very rare for a household appliance, and it will end up as heat anyway sooner or later.

Pedantic note: "Several" usually refers to 3 or more of something and no US household 110V outlet can put out several KW. They max out at 1650w-1800w. If you by chance have a 20A circuit, you might be able to get 2400W.

having dinner
I can't really tell what that is, but it doesn't look like something for which I would consider the label "dinner" appropriate.

It's Soylent!
It's less gross than it seems.

I typically do it once per day.

I obviously did, but chose to respond anyway.

It wasn't that funny anyway. ;)

110V outlet
I'm not sure which side of the pond @anonymous234 is on; here in Europe 220-240V 16A circuits are common, for 3520-3840W.

We are not that lucky here in the colonies.

Status: Got Git into some buggy shitty unrecoverable state... AGAIN! Ended up just wiping the local branch and re-doing my changes manually, because that's almost always quicker than actually fixing any brokenness in Git.
EDIT: in case someone cares, I accidentally typo-ed the issue number on the commit message, which caused Stash to reject the commit with the error, "unable to push tag because tag already exists on the server" (quite a sensible error message!) Talking to a co-worker, he recommended updating and then merging Develop with my branch on the theory that the guy who runs the Git server maybe fixed it somewhere, so I did that but no luck. Then he noticed the 1-digit typo in the issue number was the true cause, so I tried to change the commit message but I couldn't because it was no longer the latest commit. Then I found instructions to do some useless stupid "interactive rebase" bullshit from the webs and tried that, but then I got a merge conflict and basically at that point I said "fuck it", wiped the local branch, redid the changes in like 45 seconds and pushed the fucking thing.

Tons and tons of people use it every single day without issue. You have to be the problem.

You have to be fist-fucking me? I checked out their website and dear god that is some depressing shit.

I anticipated your response and added more detail. Read through the steps I did and tell me where I was the problem.

Well, let's see...
I accidentally typo-ed the issue number on the commit message
Yep, you caused it. It is right there in the first sentence of your explanation. Do you even comprehend what you typed?
-
depressing shit
As opposed to ?
Also, good thing they haven't released a green edition yet ...
-

Oh I don't deny that was the root cause.
Are you seriously suggesting that the server's response of, "duplicate tag!" is a reasonable way of communicating that error?
-

Was it a duplicate tag?
-
The error had nothing to do with tags. Not even remotely. It was the commit message that was wrong.

Then yes, the error message was total garbage ;)

I know that and you know that but does Intercourse know that?
Yes he does too, but he's going to call me an idiot anyway because he's a piece of shit.

We need an emoji for spoon-feeding, just for occasions like this. ;)
Seriously though, you can only write so many different error messages and exceptions. Also, I just wanted to give you a raft of shit.

It's OK @blakeyrat, I know that under that veneer of complete and total cockholery there is a good person. Somewhere, deep down inside, beneath onion like layers of complete shithead...somewhere...you are probably tolerable.
