Oh, no, that's happening today. I just wanted a small tint of pleasure before starting the prep for tomorrow's colonoscopy.

E: and good luck.

@Weng Out of curiosity I downloaded their online nutritional data and looked at the energy content (in KJ because SI units are always better)
- "Cheeseburger" - 585 KJ. Let's call this 1 unit.
- "Gluten free cheeseburger": 4 units (no idea why it's so big)
- Chicken burger: 2 units
- Whopper: ~3 units
- Whopper with large menu: 7 units!
Conclusion: fries and drinks have a lot more calories (or Joules) than I expected.

I am considering murdering everyone in a 3-block radius or stopping the sink from dripping, whichever comes first.
I would fix the sink
Depending on the sink, it might be easier murdering everyone.

@dkf I assume the intended code would have been:
uint16_t next_header = *(uint16_t*) read_pointer;
And prey to $deity that you don't have to worry about alignment issues...
(yes I sawprey

Maybe, but it's been broken and in production for 4 years so I'm guessing that just deleting it is the better option.

@dcon More to the point not in London. Nor is it a new build - these days they build shoeboxes on postage stamps.

I suspect we haven't any of those due to the hardware configuration, but my fix sorts all that out by annotating the types with the correct alignments.
(I'm very glad that we no longer employ the author of this code, who was definitely a… character. I saw his former keyboard when I joined the group: it was thoroughly disgusting. My immediate reaction was to find some paper towels, use them to pick up the offending object, and throw the whole lot in the trash. And then washed my hands thoroughly. Ugh!)

Status: Apparently I managed to serialize an object to JSON that cannot be summarily de-serialized back into that object.
Somehow, an empty array is being serialized to empty string.
Not sure what the fuck that's about...

It's easier to see when you think of them as oil-soaked potatoes and dissolved sugar.

In the US that‘s HFCS instead of sugar, but yeah, same concept.

By "object", you are referring to "the author of this code", right?

That doesn't make a lot of sense. I'd expect more carbs and less protein (gluten-free bread-like substances tend to rely heavily on rice and potato flours, instead of wheat), but not drastically so. I wouldn't expect a large difference in calorie content. (If there really is such a big difference, maybe that's why my gastroenterologist's prediction that I'll lose weight on a gluten-free diet has been inaccurate. I doubt it, though; it's much more likely due to incessant snacking.)

the CT machine I mentioned on Saturday...
Anyways, after a disastrous Friday, I urgent-shipped a genuine Intel NIC. Got it in and installed today.
It works!
But now I have to validate it.
Fuck you! You're apparently 0.29mm off!

In theory yes. In practice, if I'd meant him I'd have said “dipshit #2”.

Status: So, my Asus Geforce 1080 Ti's fans were acting up again. Took them to the vendor who sent them in for replacement/repair. But since this is already a replacement for a previous card with the same problem I'll get myself a Geforce 2080 instead (which I found for 550€!) and sell the old one on Ebay as soon as it's returned. From a cursory glance I might get 300 to 400€ for that one.

My young one dog keeps licking where the older one pees. "Hey!", then he marks it.
