@error said in The Official Status Thread:
I always found kind of weird that SQL doesn't support booleans as first-class values.
Most times when you have a boolean, it should be expressed as a relation instead, and in SQL that means a table (or a view).
According to the purists anyway.

Purists are the reason you can't get anything done with ANSI standard SQL, so every database has a distinct dialect for the missing features.

The reason you can't get anything done with ANSI SQL is that it has to (approximately) encompass what Oracle, Microsoft and IBM agree it should be. So nothing much useful gets left in it at all.

To clarify: I'm working on an algorithm to solve arbitrary board states, that's basically come down to proving theorems with set theory.

And I really don't know much set theory so first I'm rediscovering all the base axioms for myself.

@hungrier Anything in the server log?
-
@dkf The log configuration currently only logs from my classes. I'm trying to find the codez to enable logging on whatever Spring class(es) would give me that without it being too spammy
-
@hungrier In anything vaguely production-like, virtually any server logging becomes too spammy almost instantly.
-
@dkf This project is currently far from production, so not too spammy yet. But while I'm developing it I don't want to enable debug level logging on
org.springframework
if I can narrow it down to just what I need.
-
@hungrier Apparently even that doesn't work, as I'm getting no log messages from Spring.
-
@hungrier I guess the first thing to check is that INFO level logging is on, and that it hasn't been turned down to WARN to quieten things. I've been known to do that for my projects...
OTOH, a quick check that the exception might be logged at all is a good plan. I think I used to handle that with a custom logging interceptor, but it is years ago so the details are hazy (and I was using CXF inside Spring, which might've changed how such things happen).
-
Status: Just lost 30 minutes trying to figure out why the unit tests weren't working because I didn't ensure the nested tests called Act after overriding Arrange.
-
@dkf I've got the root logger at info and my own code at debug, which prints in the console like it should. I tried adding org.springframework at debug, which did nothing, and I've also tried adding
CommonsRequestLoggingFilter
which supposedly should do the needful, but doesn't appear to.

A problem with the previous forum software, Discourse, that I summarized in a thread. A former user @aliceif named it, and it seemed to come from a few sources:- Infiniscroll didn't estimate the height of the posts it was loading or unloading correctly, causing the viewport to twitch like a bunny on MDMA whenever you scrolled enough to load a chunk. Sometimes the newly-loading chunk could cause this too, leading to recursive loss of scroll control.
- Discourse's client-side code submitted error reports to an endpoint and expected to get executable mitigations in return (i.e. a "we're sorry" toaster). However, the server-side reply was invariably
500 OK
, which isn't JavaScript. The crash handler tried to reset the viewport (scrolling it up or down in the process) and submit an error report that the previous error report wasn't understood. Which got a500 OK
, which triggered another reflow and error report, which got a500 OK
... - Images didn't include height tags, and browsers waited until the image was fully loaded before popping it in and doing re-layout. So you arrived at a thread and were scrolled to where the post you wanted to look at was (at the moment of first contentful paint), but it was rapidly pushed off the bottom of the screen by all the images loading in.
- Because Jeff Atwood, Waffles, and Riking felt like it.
-
@hungrier So I managed to get the thing working (sort of), by extending Spring's built in CommonRequestLoggingFilter to use log4j compatible logging and manually adding it to the list of filters, and the log messages I get are:
[DEBUG] 15:28:41.064 [http-nio-8080-exec-6] com.companyname.product.config.AppConfig$1 - Before request [uri=...;client=0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1;session=BAB3B2B0900EDD45675ABF58FC50F6D6] [DEBUG] 15:28:41.099 [http-nio-8080-exec-6] com.companyname.product.config.AppConfig$1 - After request [uri=...;client=0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1;session=BAB3B2B0900EDD45675ABF58FC50F6D6]

And another one in my carMe too but I also have a phone that lasts longer than a day so it's no big deal if I forget it.
-
@TimeBandit Well, yes, so do I. Technically, it wasn't the charger itself I forgot; it was the USB cable to connect it. I have an inadequate number of such cables, and need to use the same cable in more than one place. Yes, I need to buy more cables. I also need to pay my rent. Doing either requires a paycheck, which didn't happen today; if it had, I would at this moment be buying necessities, like USB cables and food, instead of posting on TDWTF.

Status: Woo! First paycheck. I can buy USB cables! And food. And almost pay my rent; next week's paycheck should make that easily possible, if the deposit isn't delayed by the Thanksgiving holidays. Then I can start paying off the credit card balance I've run up during absence of paycheck.

No, thank you. I appreciate the sentiment, but I don't drink beer — or any alcohol, but especially beer, because it's made from barley or wheat, which have gluten. I did run across a gluten-free beer made from sorghum, but I have no idea whether (people who like beer would think) it tastes any good, and it still has alcohol. Hmm, a non-alcoholic sorghum beer, maybe, but I doubt I'd like it; I don't even like the smell of beer.
I might celebrate with dinner at a gluten-free restaurant, of which there are a couple in town.
-
@HardwareGeek I bought gluten-free Peroni by accident once. It wasn't terrible. It didn't taste that different from the normal stuff.

Same here. It's taken a while of pointing out the numbers are meaningless for people in my team to learn to give me a brief description of the problem instead.
