I can't get rid of the iframes. The client wants a site that has "look and feel" like an iPad, so that means loading a new page on click and swiping it in (which is easiest with an iframe), but not losing the previous page so they'll go back instantly when they click the return button on the sub-page.
It's also built on ASP.NET WebForms, and I have a half dozen other things getting thrown at me so I'm stuck just trying to figure out how to get this thing to work so I can be done with it.

Status: Considering making my MUD 4-dimensional. Basically adding "Realm" as a 4th spatial coordinate to make it much easier to create admin staging grounds for new areas before they're merged into the main realm and made available to the general playerbase.

that's the same as
select cast(convert(varchar, dateadd(day, -7, getdate()), 101) as datetime)
If used in SQL, not really a WTF (just strips the timestamp from they day 7 days ago, and I assume used for optimizing query plans)
But if it's done from an application, rather than letting the language set the short date...
Which looking at your code, looks like a postback dynamic sql statement? That's a little iffy but might be valid. I would prefer just passing parameters to a sql statement...
The real question is: What happens when you change the javascript value that you pass, can you do SQL injection via chrome f12?
It's a .NET app, so that would probably result in an invalid viewstate.
Rolling the dice, this is an access database or similar!
p_TableGet is a select query, p_TableInsert is an insert query template, p_tableinsertget is the result of p_tableinsert select * from p_tableget!
Do I win?
Nah, full-blown SQL Server database.

Current status: really happy about the status of my major Python deployment last night. Now working in .NET, although it's VB...

Current status: annoyed by the fact that we have eleventy billion systems and the level 1 techs have no idea who's responsible for what, so everything gets sent towards software development.

If you hit hard enough it ceases to be tomorrow's problem.

Alternatively you can go with repeated applications for the same effect (though you may need some help with later applications).

WTF
no records exist for [ID] with ForeignKeyID = 3. some records exists for [ID] with ForeignKeyID = 3.
YOUR LOGS ARE AWFUL FUGGIN' HELPFUL
-
catch (Exception ex) { Logger.Log(ex.ToString()); Logger.LogErrorToText(ex.ToString()); return false; } finally { if (cfg.VerboseLogging) Logger.Log("exiting from [AppName]..."); }
SO. EFFING. USELESS.

SO. EFFING. USELESS.
Could be worse. Could have another process monitoring the app and appending "[AppName] exited" to log file when it closes.

It's a web app, so that would be fairly useless.

Status: Trying to figure out why adding a method to a C++ class somehow keeps our SDK from compiling with errors about "Cannot instantiate abstract class" coming from code I didn't touch using classes I haven't touched.
Oh yeah, C++. "Cannot instantiate abstract class in file foo.cpp" probably actually means "Mis-spelled word in comment on line 42 of file bar.hpp".

Or it's one of those cases where there were obsolete .o files hanging around where it worked, make blissfully ignored the changes until now and just used that when compiling, and now you changed something that forced it to recompile those bits and crap itself.
-
Finally fixed it after a couple days of monkeying around. Apparently the error actually meant the class wasn't implementing an interface method. I don't understand why it couldn't tell me that...I miss C#. The land of useful compiler errors.

Are you instantiating the class the compiler complains about somewhere else successfully? Because IIRC a class is also considered "abstract" if it doesn't provide all the methods the interface it inherits from prescribes.So checking that class (and its chain of inheritance) might be a could point to start...

Fun update: 2 iPads (both 2nd generation, but different batches) act differently.
One does the one finger swiping fine. The other requires two fingers or horizontal swiping to get vertical scrolling only from the app. If we go to the web page that the app goes to in Safari, it does one finger swiping fine.
Uninstalling and reinstalling the app didn't change it.
Disclaimer: Update was not actually fun.

Failing to kill the likes thread with bad music references.
I really thought it was a flawless strategy.

That sounds like missing dependencies in your makefile.
Filed Under: makedepend FTW, assuming you haven't already lost because you depend on makedepend
-
Even more fun update: The iPad where it doesn't work randomly starts working with one finger scroll, then randomly stops.
Also, everything inside the iframes is unclickable on that iPad, but not the other one.
I fucking hate Apple.
"Issue resolved", as apparently some update between iOS 7.x.x -> iOS 7.1.2 fixed the issue the other iPad had. My iPad (the "working one") was closer to 7.1.2 and didn't have the issue.
-

Possible. Never experienced it myself, but I heard horror stories...

I think it's a combination of bad practices. Relying on a header file to include other header files and manually maintaining dependencies.

I started going grey at 24... coincidentally around the time WTF Mortgages got borged into WTF Banking.
-
Status: catching up with the "Likes" thread.
-
Considering my parents didn't start getting gray hairs until their 40s and both of my brothers not having gray hairs yet (well, one for sure, the other I don't know anymore), I was hoping I'd not get them for a long while.
-
I feel sorry for all of you going gray so young. My parents were in their 50s before they started going gray. I should be safe for at least another 20 years.
-
My grandpa never went bald, and my grandma who is nearly 90 doesn't even have gray hair, so I hopefully have good genetics in that department.
-
Well here's the thing, my first gray hair was 10 months ago. I just got my second today. At this rate... I don't know.
-
Are you guessing a linear or geometric progression?
-

Only one of my grandfathers went bald, but all four of my grandparents went white early. There's no hope in my family.

-
I'm hoping it's stress related and not natural progression right now.

Passive aggressive Like Thread posting.

Father's.

You're probably safe then. Male pattern baldness tends to be inherited from the mother's side.
