It's kind of an abuse thread.
-
Jeff certainly wouldn't approve.

Status: Still waiting for that snowflake
Sorted.
Welcome to the club. Wear your badge with pride.

It'll make our 3rd 1k post topic in 3 months.
-
And yet we're still only 5th to 7th in posts per day.

Status: returning home after an unproductive day, since I was asked to leave the dev system in working order for some presentation of the latest build that never happened.
Yes, I only have one instance of the test system due to networking dickweedery we are unable to get resolved. No, it's not in a VM, and I kick myself for that one.
-
Status: Wondering if it would be a WTF to port-forward my LAMP server's SSH port to the Internet so I can putty/WinSCP in from work, assuming my ISP doesn't block it.
-
I did that. Just change your SSH port and you're good to go. If that's not enough, you can look into whitelisting the work's IP in iptables.
-
Status: AC still isn't fixed. I might just work from home this entire week.
-
Status: survived the dentist, thinking about preparing dinner.
-
Status: Would've rather had nothing to work on, because now I have a bunch of things being thrown at me, a few of which are "need to be done by end of day today".
-
Status: Enjoying my officially recognized
uniquespecialness.

-
Just completing the snowflake trinity.

And for the permanent record of it:

AC still busted. They put out huge industrial fans that don't make my area cooler, just less quiet. Working from home until they fix the AC.

Status: Somewhat perplexed by the portable system I'm working on that has a touchscreen with the X and Y coordinates flipped. Yay mouse drivers!
-
Wow.
public string GetTimeStamp(string type) { string sStamp = ""; try { string sDate = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMdd"); string sTime = DateTime.Now.ToString("HHmmssffff"); switch (type) { case "date": sStamp = sDate; break; case "time": sStamp = sTime; break; case "dateandtime": sStamp = sDate + "_" + sTime; break; } } catch (Exception ex) { Logger.Log(ex.ToString()); Logger.LogErrorToText(ex.ToString()); } finally { if (sc.bVerbose) Logger.Log("Exiting from GetTimeStamp..."); } return sStamp; }
-
I like the no checks on type while not using a default in the switch. And also using the crap form of Hungarian for variables but not parameters.
-
Staus: Took a shower. Trying to find out if I'm still wet, or wet again.
-
String
all the things!
-
Strings, strings, everywhere there's strings
Fuckin' up the type safety, breaking my build

Deduction: you live somewhere humid.

I often miss living in a place where sweating works as designed.

That's why I love Arizona. Most of the time, I don't even realize I was sweating until I shower the accumulated condensates off my skin.
-
Status: Just been given a copy of a page to "just drop in" over top the existing page on a site by the designer, where the new page would give me nested forms and removes the only submit button (and has no JS to submit it), so there's no way to even try to supposedly submit the new, nested form.
And that's just the technical part of the change. The design itself is also screwed up.

Current status: wondering if I could get a job at Rockstar.

Status: Headed home for the day, but aware that a bunch of crap is going to get dumped on me tomorrow.

Status: Reading this and trying to decide whether I should be angered or saddened by the amount of stupid.
Filed under: Damn it cartman, why did you have to link it?
-
Hehehe. Enjoy your triple coffee tomorrow morning, sucker. Off to sleep.
-
Typing in math problems. And making them ego-crushing-hard. For sales.
-
Applying for jobs and still somehow creating more code than at my current job.
-
current status: WTF Robin Williams?

Semicolon rage: rising.

.NET
RegisterStartupScript
method places scripts from multiple statements in the server code in one<script />
block if you haveaddScriptTags
set totrue
, so when you update the code to useaddScriptTags
instead of building HTML manually, you better make sure that you have your semicolons in order.

-
Do your scripts not end in a newline?

Status: Tuesday. Meeting day.
-
Status: Annoyed because Visual Studio (2010) froze on me and I had to kill it.
-
Status: Trying to patch together botched legacy config files into something that works without reconfiguring the whole damned thing from scratch.
How this thing ever worked, I have no idea.
-
Status: Thinking that middle-clicking so many unread topics from meta.d at once wasn't such a good idea after all:
-
Dreading going out in the rain.
-
Sitting through conference calls that don't really require my participation.
-
Finally sat down with my coffee and relaxing after a long day. Birds sing... no, wait, got chased off by some fucking lorry. Sagan damn it!
