People keep asking me, and I haven’t really had an answer, but now yeah, I’m thinking I’m back.
Yeah I can tell you’re not commenting to convince anyone, you’re just commenting to vent your frustrations. I get it, no worries. I mean the world is pretty shitty right now, and if you’re thinking Canada and China and equally evil authoritarian regimes, yeah I guess all us commenters are equally not worth the effort. Have a good weekend mate, keep up the good fight against… everyone.
Despite all your raging comments in this thread, I still don’t know what your stance is. The weak straw man argument isn’t helping.
Vacation is a quaint problem lol, at least you know they’re eventually coming back. What do we do about the guy who retired 5 years ago and still has locked files in his name?
I could go all day with my grievances… For some fucking reason, Team Foundation Server thought it would be a good idea to model their source control on folders and files rather than atomic nodes of changes like git.
I’m sure someone thought this was intuitive, but it falls apart once you realize you can check in cross-branch or even cross-project files into a single changeset. This allows you to easily pollute projects you’re working on but didn’t intend to modify yet, if you forgot to exclude their files. And then, when your code reviewer checks the history of the project folder you modified, they don’t even notice all the files you changed that WEREN’T in that folder but were part of the same changeset. So you pass your review, and all the sudden there’s unwanted, unnoticed, and untested changes in some other project, with a nice code review stamp on them!
And the entire checkout/checkin system is just flipping the read-only flag on the files in file explorer. It’s the most amateurish shit. If you edit a file in an open, active project, the file gets checked out automatically. But if you’re editing loose scripts that aren’t part of a bespoke SLN or CSPROJ, you have to check those out manually… which it will only tell you to do once you try to save the file.
And then Visual Studio cannot understand that I might need to switch regularly between 2 types of version control systems. If you’re not on the same VCS plugin when you want to open a recent project on it, it doesn’t automatically switch it for you, it just refuses to load the project. The only way to reliably to switch is by going into the options menu, changing it there, THEN loading the project.
git is practically made of grease compared to how stuttery and clunky TFS is. I’ll shed no tears for the fossils who are having a hard time learning git, they will be better off whether they realize it or not.
Welcome to my world… our new lead architect has mandated that we move everything from TFS to GitLab before the end of the year. I hope it comes true.
Yeah VSS was the predecessor to TFS, and now TFS is called Azure DevOps… whatever the fuck that means, Microsoft needs to get it together with product naming. Anyway TFS sucks major rotten ass. I have my problems with git - namely user friendliness - but TortoiseGit has put all those troubles to rest.
Nothing like that can fix TFS.
Not to mention it won’t work. Democrats could throw LGBT, people of color, women, all under the bus, but the Republicans will find some new minority to slap them with. They’ll just make up the next enemy to be mad at.
So it’s a complete disaster to abandon the only people still willing to come to your defense. Because imaginary enemies can’t vote for the opposition…
Me too friend, me too.
I mean they literally called their campaign “the revenge tour.” There’s nothing they want to build because a fascist regime like this already has everything they need: huge amounts of capital, channels to pipe out propaganda, and hoards of mindless hate-filled followers, all of them armed to the teeth.
“What else is on the agenda” is getting rid of anything and anyone that can stand up to them.
Hot take: Walz/Harris might have won, but Harris/Walz just never stood a chance.
They’ll just fill the place with known loyalists, party officials, and MAGA social media influencers, denying access to actual republican voters.
They’ll be quiet and listen to their master like good little boys and girls, and then they’ll go on social media and say “see? our town hall was full of republicans and it was peaceful! your town hall must have been infiltrated by socialists!”
The town hall outrage will just become another charade, if it hasn’t already, very very soon.
Their belief in magic paper is predicated on the paper being in their corner. “Payment coupons,” Cap One’s lawsuit, and Tennessee state law are all magic paper to them. But they only believe and trust the one that says “u right.”
That was the whole play with COVID. Not much changes in 5 years it seems.
I pay for Cursor to generate code, not to patronize me.
I think you paid for a hooker and expected a girlfiend. Not only can she not fill the emotional void in your life, she can only provide short term satisfaction you will inevitably try and fail to recreate afterward.
“Get my feature to work” fr? Your inner techbro is showing. Coding is as much a creative endeavor as it is a technical one. Do you have so little attachment to your idea that you don’t even try to make it come to life yourself? Do you lack the education or know-how to do it? A person would happily teach you, or code it for you, if you asked (or maybe paid).
@Xanza@lemm.ee Among my friends, it replaced Facebook Messenger, Teamspeak, and Mumble instantly. It was fast and the voice quality was excellent. The appeal in 2017 was obvious. The bloat that it had tacked onto it since then is egregious.
Don’t get me started on the “rewards”…
Two weeks…
