No MSDN subscription. Management says we're a company with a software development area, we're not a software development company. So change is rather hard to implement. As for docker, it's not really an option for now. I've pushed for it though (we actually have a nasty in-house service orchestrator that could be easily replaced with docker). Ops prefers monolithic native windows services. Easier for them to monitor.
Of course. This is not a competition. Just pointing out that no team is perfect. We have incompetent people in my team as well. But there is a lot of elitism from ops people in this post. And between devs and ops, it's always ops that has the "if it works don't break it".
I am a developer. I have no business talking to a superior of another area. I can only talk to my superior. He can then talk to that person. I may or may not be allowed in the meeting.
I don't usually respond to AC, but you seem like a decent AC.
I document everything. I even leave READMEs in projects for newbie devs on how to run a node.js with environment variables, and set SVN filters to keep them from commiting their credentials into the repo. Well, now that I am in charge of the new Node.js project and no longer in.NET.
But, you see. Company policy forbids devs from installing software. Company policy also doesn't allow us to use virtualization (because we are a windows shop and management doesn't want to pay windows licenses for the test VMs). Your SSH point is moot. We're a windows shop. Ooops. Oh and btw, our dev machines only have 8GB of RAM and a 5400RPM HDD. "No SSDs for anyone in this company!" (ops guys suggested SSDs die early and, because of that, no one in the company is allowed to use SSDs).
Hell, we are a Windows 7 shop. Our client uses windows 10 for some laptop. Some stupid part of our program doesn't work with Windows 10. We had to borrow the boss' laptop (only windows 10 machine in the domain in our area) and test there.
I'm a developer, and I am 100% for CI. I pushed hard to get Jenkins running at our shop. It helped a lot with rogue nonbuilding commits. Helped ME a lot with "compiles with my machine" issues. Where it did compile on my machine but not on the CI machine (or the other devs').
But there is a lot of push from management against it. They believe in "we'll fix it once it's there". They don't want a script. They don't trust scripts. They want everything to be installed manually ("so people actually check what they're doing"). Our install process is simple: an all-nighter where we wait until 2AM to start the upgrade and then still running DbComparer against SQL server with roughly 500 tables and 2000 SPs.
And of course the client wants it running by 7 AM next day. And it's not working, so we get to stay until 6PM.
Luckily i'm not part of that team anymore. In MY project we have rules. We have testing, CI, and database migrations. We don't do bullshit like the old team.
Ops, though, still sucks. You talk like you ops people are all elite. Screw that. Ops people at my company insist all servers must ALWAYS have 50% RAM FREE at all times. The DBA, the only technical guy I actually respect in the company, has written to ops explaining how silly it is to have that rule. Free RAM in a database server is wasted ram. But no. Ops doesn't like to see the yellow warning on nagios. So basically he just has to tell the imbecile in charge of ops to fuck off whenever one of the drones calls in because "there is something wrong with the database server".
Ah yes, waterfall. The rosy world of product managers where everything goes within their schedules. Where the dev is dumb, and needs a step by step use case made by the queens of the office, the analysts (all women at my company. VERY bright girls i have to admit).
But an external consultant suggested we switch to agile. So now we devs just get told over an email what to do. Because that's how agile works right?
Do i have to say this only lasted for a couple of months?
You're assuming because you don't do devops, you automatically have pros.
I work for a company where we don't do devops, and ops are literal idiots. Security are also idiots. Their idea of security is the "agreement" we had to sign promising we were only going to use the internet for "work stuff". Then they ran for months a 4-server load balancing proxy with one misconfigured proxy. It was proxy lottery. Any request going through the bad proxy didn't go through. They had to hire an external company to fix it. Because yeah, devs are supposed to fix everything by themselves. Ops are supposed to call vendor support every time.
This is what usually happens at our site. Ops doesn't provide us with test VMs as required ("just use the dev VM", which is already down to its knees), but they want full docs on how software should be installed. Gee. I have no idea what you're using to spawn services, dear ops. You haven't event told me what Windows version you're going to use. Because yeah, ops. You pull out a dirty old Win2008 VM because "licenses take time to get".
In the company I work for, we devs are very capable, but ops are extremely CYA (Cover Your Ass). They don't want to touch ANYTHING. And that means running servers from 2009 in production.
Oh and they lost the complete SVN server one day. No RAID, and no backups.
But somehow, if prod breaks, it's the dev's fault for "not writing good code".
because every fucking manufacturer out there uses a different standard for fast charging. The fast charge on your laptop is not the same as motorola's TurboPower, even though turbopower does the exact same thing (negotiate a higher voltage and more current)
Granted, Motorola did TurboPower with micro USB, which is why I loved my Moto X
Is it your political/ideological agenda "the RIAA sues their customers", or did you just grow up? Because, you know, I had a lot of CDs when I was younger. Then past 18 I started college and work. I had (and have) no time to buy or listen to CDs anymore.
Fuck google and this stupid shit. What kind of joke is this? The non-english speaking world has been asking for their own NSA wiretap for a long time now. But elitist Assistant, Alexa and Siri only speak english.
Also Google Home, outside the US, pretty much only lets you set up Chromecast. Everything else is hidden from the menu. I have some smart relays and Hue lights which I can't control with Google Home because google decided that my language doesn't deserve to control google home. Of course, everyone knows only maids speak spanish and maids are a lower caste that shouldn't even DARE talk to google.
Same shit with Alexa. Alexa speaks german though! A beautiful blue-eyed blonde people language. A true superior race language. Not like that dirty low class spanish.
Fuck all tech companies.
Well, except netflix. The ones who decided Latin America was a market worth serving. And it paid. EVERYONE down here has netflix.
You have to be a whole category of imbecile to keep "private" collections of ROMs. "Look at me, I'll die the last person to ever play this video game". What kind of virgin feels proud of this?
Also, are the other forum members retarded? Can't they download the folder themselves in full and repost?
Problem is though, when you forget your password with this feature, there is no restore. Cool brick!
Problem is though, when you forget your password with this feature, there is no restore. Cool brick!
AFAIK it's not bricked. But you lose all your access to all your Apple data if you forget this password. It's not just your phone that you lose. But if you regain access to this, you can have your phone back. At least it makes your iphone a little less valuable to thieves. If it's completely bootloader-bricked, with serial number checks to all peripherals (including screen and fingerprint reader) it's theoretically not worth even for spares. Of course, eventually someone will find out how to bypass this. But at least the one who stole your phone will have nothing but a brick, hopefully for a long time.
Also, I forgot: the structures you posted are for the "middle of the desert", where it's trivial to get evaporative cooling. I live more like in the "middle of the jungle". Good luck getting evaporative cooling with jungle-levels of humidity.
what's the average temperature during the summer where you live?
where i live it's 30C. with 40C days and 30C nights for weeks at a time. with 80-90% humidity to top it off.
so yeah if you can tell me the secret to keep cool without AC during those times, I will take your point. otherwise, it's as stupid as saying "heating is a luxury, you only need to add more layers of clothing"
BULLSHIT. There is no escape from heat when it's 40C and humidity is through the roof. There is no shade, no brick, atrium, high ceiling, or ANYTHING that will lower the temperature.
The temperature stays above 30C during the coolest moment of the night, and this happens for weeks at a time.
I know this. Because I live in one of these places.
check out their blade stealth ultrabook. I've been shopping for an ultrabook with thunderbolt and charge on the same USB-C connnector and theirs always comes up as the best choice, feature and price wise. i want that core V2 thing, but at $500 for a docking station with PCI-E? No thanks!!!

You're getting it the wrong way. We devs have to work with whatever ops has for us. We don't get to decide.

Granted, Motorola did TurboPower with micro USB, which is why I loved my Moto X
I had this happen to me on a PS/2 keyboard port. Just the "inrush current" alone is sometimes enough for the fuse to blow.
Though with AT, it's really quite difficult to jam those huge pins wrong

That's a US only thing. This never existed pretty much everywhere else in the world.

Meanwhile, in the third world, where people can barely afford to stucco their walls...
No. American cities do. Look at Mexico City and tell me if it has "large apartment buildings".
Ah yes, every location has readily available underground water THAT CAN SCALE TO A CITY OF 400,000.
Get real.
