Yes, I think I have only seen the 1.0 (which I'm sure wasn't labeled as a 1.0)
-
Oh no, now I remember.
I think it was linked off WooT.com, I'm almost positive. And I think it was indeed the 2.0, which came out in mid-July, which is recently enough that explains why I remember having seen it before.

the first one was farking wheaton w00t stout. but yeah, one tastes like a stout, the other tastes like a bourbon-aged stout. I'm warming up with a Firestone DBA.

I'll stick with the local pub and my random beer order. The only have 7 brews on tap, but they're generally all good solid brews. And it's so much fun when the waitress brings a beer to our table and asks, "Who ordered the XXXXXX". I wait a second and say, "Looks like no one knows, which means it's mine". Everyone else at the table just nods their head in agreement, and I get beer.
I have on a handful of occasions had waitresses bring the wrong table's beer to me... and more than once have I ended up with double beer if that nearby table isn't watching out. They can't argue with it, because they know I don't know what I was supposed to get! That's their job to keep track of which table the order was intended to go! Hmm, so maybe I'm an ass... but I tip well, so the waitresses are pretty happy with me in general.

The Whole Foods half a mile from me has 32 craft beers on tap.

Well, it's right, isn't it? undefined is, in fact, not a function.
See? You're learning things already!

You made a piece of software cry. Hope you're happy.

Sadly not the piece of software we all want to see cry.

Status: Overloading an async function in node.js using my own constructor-based class pattern:
this.combineAll = (function (baseCombineAll) { return function overridenCombineAll(callback) { baseCombineAll(function (err, data) { if (err) { return callback(err); } //... update data return callback(null, data); }); }; })(this.combineAll);
Yay javascript!

Not to worry, if you're only 20 you have plenty of time for both, and the money from the job will allow you to buy better booze.

Yep, that's my "abroad assignment". Which means plenty of booze and girls somewhere around, but nearly zero friggin' time to enjoy it.

Mildly headdesking right now. Spent all day trying to get a 64-bit build of one of our software packages generated because, you know, it's 2014 and all, making it 99% of the way there but getting stuck on a dependency another dev is in charge of, asking him if he can generate a 64-bit version of that dependency, and getting told it would probably be a waste of time.

I get really annoyed with our L1 people.
"Who is the IT owner of the server that you are requesting access to?"
"I don't know, it's your server, you should keep track of that."
"Ok, it's John Doe. Can you CC him on this ticket?"
"Yes, I am able to. Are you not? Because that's your job."

We had something like that.
Us: "I'm investigating why this batch process is taking way too long."
DBA: "Looks like the index rebuilding hasn't been happening for awhile."
Us: "So are you... gonna fix it or...?"
DBA: "Put in a ticket."
Us: "Put in a ticket that reads: 'oh hey, DBAs? DO YOUR FUCKING JOB!'?"
