Well, it's perfectly cromulent in C as well.
Overall, it's not C unless someone's done something with macros that I'd really rather not think about.

Status: Man, has it really been a week and a half since I was last on? It's been … interesting. Wife started going into labor, then stopped. Went in to be induced, only to discover baby had flipped at the last minute and was breech, so there was an emergency c-section. Then the baby came
inout at a whopping 11 lbs 8 oz (5213 g). Mom and baby are perfectly healthy, so all's well that ends well, I suppose.So I've seen too much of the inside of a hospital and I got to celebrate my birthday with a brand new daughter and a wife who's just barely getting around. It's been a whirlwind.

My local supermarket has a loyalty program that, once you do the math, amounts to a 1€ discount for every 200€ spent.
Wow. Such generousness.

@djls45 Better to do the needful now rather than having it randomly blow away your desktop session in the middle of the night.

@hungrier I agree, it's best to do it now before there's a sudden need to shoot aliens.

@sloosecannon Goddammit people, the size of the windows folder reported by explorer is not the real size on disk.
Yeah, but it's still not going to reduce
this enough.

figured she wasn't going to fit and turned around to look for another exit.

@Tsaukpaetra So it seems the install is broken. Ok fine. Lets try to install Windows 10 on it!
It has only a 8 Gb drive for the primary disk, so this will be... interesting...
That is not going to work
You're right, but the installer said it might merely be "not optimal" or something.
Oh, this is as far as it got after the initial image application:
That's a new one
This might be a problem:
Well, there's kinda this
I mean, I might have updates and stuff. But that's over 3x the capacity of your system drive
On a (mostly) fresh install it isn't that large:
I just booted it from my Windows-To-Go disk.
Status: Looking into a WIMBOOT-style install next...
I think I avoided WIMBOOT because didn't want to DISM it just yet. So, trying WinReducer for Windows 10. Managed to get it to fit!
Went through OOBE once, it apparently got "Critical Updates", rebooted, and now I'm going through OOBE again.

Man, Azure is fucking complex. I have no idea what about 2/3rds of the stuff means. Locks? Application events? Application Insights? Easy Tables? Easy APIs? Resource explorer? Deployment profiles? Web hooks? A console? If you actually get your own VM for the web apps, then what difference is there between this and the general purpose VMs? Even the web interface has pseudo-windows and an advanced customizable dashboard system.
This is like ordering a burger and getting a stem cell kit that can recreate any biological tissue.

@anonymous234
If you get a regular VM (Infrastructure as a Service), that's very similar in functionality to running Hyper-V on-premises and setting up a VM. Aside from some fun with networking depending on if you need it to be generally externally accessible or accessible across a Site to Site VPN to Azure, or what.If you do a Web Application, or if you do Azure SQL (Platform as a Service), it's cheaper, but you don't have as much control as a full blown VM and the platform will require specific configurations, some of which don't line up with what the regular "on premises" or "in a VM" version of the product does -- especially with Azure SQL.
But yes, it feels like Azure keeps "where there's confusion, there's margin" in mind when making decisions on how to structure & name their solutions :P

Not to mention that some features may be unavailable in the Azure version. For example, Azure SQL does not permit CLR, a limitation which is not present if you run SQL Server in a full blown VM. There are other limitations, but this is one that came to mind quickly.

Meh, I'd say the real fuckup was not having your remote disallow force pushes. Unless your remote is a fork of the shared repo, in which case E_NOT_A_BAD_FUCKUP as you just restore your fork from that state.
git pull --rebase origin master
-> build -> test ->git push -f
-> merge pull request workflow good.

Status: Why the frick would a company want to use third-party data for entity validation?
We have a public filing on the fricken government site ( https://www.sec.gov in this case), publicly available, that I linked to. Yet instead, they use http://dnb.com , which (understandably) has outdated info (I mean, it was only three months ago that we got our location updated, and one month since the CEO change, but still!)
Great. Now I have to bug the CEO so I can impersonate him on this site and get our information updated.
GG asshats.

To make Azure SQL even more interesting, it's not even based on the same codebase as any regular SQL Server. It's very deeply forked and on Continuous Deployment.
