Status: Just slept for 12 hours, now I'm working on a 24-oz Mountain Dew. This morning is going to be glorious.
-
It's going to be something.
-
Something bad happened to my motivation.
I'm hungry.

Status: going home

Sorting through a development ticket that failed testing since someone broke a dependency in the test environment between the time the changes were pushed to the test environment and the time that the changes were tested.
-
If you do end up moving the likes thread, chuck this along with it.
-
I think that both this and the "Yo!" thread were nominated for the move.
As for my dev ticket, it turned out to be something completely unrelated, and in the data.
-
Wondering why our DBAs are letting our SSRS server run reports (end user reports) for unlimited time, and why SQL queries don't automatically time out after say, an hour.
So we have over 100 queries currently blocked by a query running for 18 hours.
And there are 4-5 behind it that have been running for about 17 hours.
-
Status: Listening to garbage while contemplating whether or not to let the likes thread take over the rest of my day.
Nearly 1000 posts got posted since I last read it.
-
Listening to garbage, or listening to Garbage?

Status: Just got an email from my ISP (Cox Cable) that they're doubling all their connection rates, for free! I paid for 50/5 and routinely got closer to 75/25. Now I pay for 100/10 so it'll be interesting to see what I actually get.
Yay, more Internets for me
-
Still waiting for our DBAs to kill the SPID blocking over 100 queries.
-
Still waiting on people to respond to five different queries as to how their request should work, since as I mentioned in the bad ideas thread, we have no project managers, so the gap between the original request and the final spec is huge, and we really have no one dedicated to fill it.

Current Status: Yawn. Bed time.
-
Current Status: Yawn. Monster time.
-
I've already had a monster and a rockstar today, and i'm still tired.
-
Sex and drugs and rock and roll?
-
Current status: waiting the two hours before I go home. Really want to figure out why the Python script that I was developing last night wasn't working right. I was able to get a PoC working here at the office, so we'll see what it was.

Kitten that shared parasite with other cat, and dog that picked up kennel cough from dog daycamp at petsmart.
-
Ugh, I was just trying to take the comment in a funny way but that sucks.

I avoid that like the dog plague.
-
Yeah, the money right out of my wallet to the tune of about $350 in vet bills in 3 days.
I've boarded my dog for a week with them, and several overnights over the past several years and never had any problems. The dog was there for like 5 hours this time and got sick.
Kitten was new from a shelter =/

My wife and I take our dogs to a ranch outside the city if we go away for any extended period of time. We call it "fat camp", even though our dogs are in really good shape.

Weird, not sure why it wasn't working.
placeholder.datetime == thisevent.datetime
wasn't working, so I used this:placeholder.datetime.date() == thisevent.datetime.date()
since the time could actually vary.

Status: Wishing for the :likelike: emoji to happen. And I'm glad that Motivation returned from whereever it ran off to.

Status: Saying hello to my old friend, Opera 12. We're back together, old girl, until a worthy replacement appears. I'm sick of Firefox' incompetence and Chrome's poor tab handling.
Edit: fucking hell, how is this ancient thing faster than both FF and Chrome? Sense. Makes none.

Status: Thursday. 'Nuff said.

Status: installed a driver, rebooting, time for a coffee

Status: internet connection unreliable where bathroom manglers have attacked the electrical system of the house to unwire the shower and other things.
-
-
Power shower. Needs something to make the heating and the pump doohickey work.
-
Why was it wired in the first place?
How would they heat the water if not? No, connecting it to the central heating is not the answer. At least not in Britain.

You people are weird.

Not in AZ either. You get a separate water heater. Connecting it to central heating would lead to heat stroke in the summer.

Researching if tech supporting people at my company are simply meat popsicles.

Status: wondering where @the_dragon is for his advice would be invaluable.
-
Feeling happy because chocolate is tasty and the internet seems to be a nice place right now.
-
It's really not a nice place. Your corner of it seems to be. Enjoy it while it lasts.
-
Be more sensitive, there are a number of diabetics here.
-
And we agree that chocolate is tasty.

Status: Wondering why my stomach is growling after I just ate, and barely finished it at that.

Advice on what?

Advice on what?
@Arantor figured you might have advice on what he was replying to:Researching if tech supporting people at my company are simply meat popsicles.

^^ This.

I don't do the whole "dragon" thing anymore. Should change my long name to reflect ...
