@Tsaukpaetra said in The Official Status Thread:
I don't comprehend what's going on...
I still don't know, but I "resolved" it by telling the sub window to put itself behind the main window with
SetWindowPos
and it seems to work.
It probably only works because the main window is still able to listen to input if not the active window, but fuck it it works so I'm on to the next task...

Bleh, does BitBucket not have an integrated issue tracker? I need to keep track of this feature backlog.
Just doing a quick check, it seems to have it. You have to turn it on from repository settings, then it shows up in the sidebar.

Status: watching little Bros virtual graduation. The video is fucking FOUR HOURS LONG for about 700 students.
Why is it so long for such a comparatively small group?
Why, it's because each name has a 20 second window till the next one.
Why? Well, see for yourself!

STATUS: Need to update this Android app I've got to compile from source. A new version has been out for >60 days and it stops functioning properly once it hits the 60 day limit. This is deserving of its own rant but that's not the point here.
Attempt #1:
Boot up my dev laptop. Launch Android studio. WiFi disconnected. Gradle has a fit and fails to sync. Turn WiFi on. Gradle stays in "had a fit" mode, and I have to exit Android Studio.Attempt #2:
Launch Android Studio. Gradle begins project sync for $[current version], the project version I compiled 3 months ago. 8 minutes later the build fails because my Android Studio version is out of date for this project (despite having not touched vcs since I started this)Attempt 2.5: screaming internally, I decide to pull the latest branch and at least get that up to date, to get as many things out of the way before I have to redownload Android Studio. Pull Failed. Current state is detached HEAD. No easy way to resolve this from Android Studio. Gitkraken, my normal go-to, has decided now is a good time to forget my password. I close the laptop in frustration and decide to murder some kittens.

You're running into the general crappiness of JetBrains's git support there. They've dumbed things down too far IMO, and have made everything fragile in the process. If you were using Eclipse you'd be able to pull up the Git Repositories view and hard reset to a sensible state in a few seconds.

@dkf the sad part is I know there's actually a way to, but they did a redesign of the VCS stuff at some point and moved my cheese all over the fucking place. And because I never really used that all that often, I never memorized the keyboard shortcuts to get there.
Also, in jetbrains' defense, normally it works fantastic.
Ctrl K
Type commit message
Alt I
Ctrl Shift K
Alt PDone.

That's what dumbing down gets you: the ultra-common workflows are very well supported. The problems come when anything knocks you off those well-trodden paths.

That's how I feel about everything Apple does. Doing it the Apple Way works great. Trying to deviate from those paths (even to fix something) means hitting invisible walls like you're on a badly done rails shooter.

OK. Gradle files were confounding me because they look like configuration files but they're actually fucking interpreted Groovy files, which has bizarre syntax that doesn't include semicolons or parentheses (usually) and blocks AFTER a function are actually lambdas passed in as the last argument to the function call BEFORE it, and the last line of a function is implicitly a return... What the fuck even is this language?
task installer(type: Zip) { mustRunAfter dist from( 'installer' ) { include '**/*' } archiveName = 'tdwtf-minecraft-mods.zip' }
Looks like this in a sane language:
task( installer( { type: global.Zip }, function() { this.mustRunAfter( global.dist ); this.from( 'installer', () => include( '**/*' ) ); this.archiveName = 'tdwtf-minecraft-mods.zip'; } ) );
Anyway, every document I pulled up trying to learn Gradle assumed that I was already familiar with Groovy. Which I wasn't because fuck that language. ...But I guess I am now.

Status: Turns out this beer was cheaper than usual because the bottle is just 400ml. I hate this downsizing trend so much. Selling beverages - non-alcoholic too - in bottles that aren't in half liter increments should be illegal. I'm looking at you, 1.8L Pepsi.
And once upon a time, ice cream came in quarts and 1/2 gallons... (How to raise the price of something without raising the actual price - make it smaller!)

Now I just need to get the CI/CD process to restart the Minecraft server...
They don't have an API for it, but they have a web-based control panel. Unfortunately it uses forms auth and also seems to have some kind of cross-site request forgery protection implemented in JavaScript.
Wonder if I can get a puppeteer/Selenium script running to automate it...

@dcon also, very few people are aware that butter used to come in 250g (quarter kilo) for about a century, but some 20 years ago it gradually changed to 200g. And then they wonder why their cakes made using granny's recipe never tastes like the one granny made.

It wasn't too long (ok, a couple years) ago I went to buy a 5pound bag of flour (or sugar, forget which). Yup. No more. They're 4 pounds now.

@dcon I wonder if the packages will eventually get so small that some manufacturer will come up with genius idea to start selling "double size" packages that are about the same size as things used to be in 1900s, and they'll get over 90% market share until everyone else switches too, so that every single product has "double size" written on it, but it still becomes gradually smaller over the years?
Basically the reverse food size cycle.

@izzion I think it's like killing. The more you do it, the easier it gets. Or the louder the voices scream at you when you're trying to sleep, I forget. Well, at least I figured out how to build stuff in Terraria. That was really frustrating for a while there.

Status: Finished the last of my morning tea. There was something solid in my mouth. I thought it was a small hair. Used my finger to remove it from the tip of my tongue. Not a hair; dark fleck. Thought it was a bit of tea leaf that had escaped the tea bag. Looked closer. Dead gnat; probably the one that was flying around my monitor screen earlier. Ick.

Yes, that’s exactly it. Nothing to do with my granny being a better cook than me.

Based on my own limited experience in cooking, and years watching my brother who's a great cook, I can say with full confidence that 20% less fat has more impact on cakes than lack of skill.
Edit: of course, it's absolutely possible that grandma wasn't telling the whole story when writing down the recipe. It might contain errors, omissions, or even outright lies. Grandmas are like that.

Grandpas, too. My ex-FIL — my kids' grandpa — has a secret recipe for toad-in-the-hole (or what he calls toad-in-the-hole, anyway; it's nothing like classic toad-in-the-hole) that he would never tell anyone. Now, at almost 90 years old, he doesn't remember it anymore.

It's 31°C here today, and that's not even particularly hot. Anything less than 20 calls for a sweater, at least.

You're not wrong, at least in private. Most public places tend to frown on that, though.

Luckily I don't have any kids, otherwise I would make a terrible grandfather/mother, since I wrote down the receipts I come up with like a proper programmer. In excruciating detail, and it's been worked on to perfection so any changes will make for an inferior end result. Something my ex hated, because she likes to wing it when baking, but when she did that with my creations it was always worse.
