most people have realized that in a capitalist system, the whole point of a job is to produce value for someone else, since that is why the job opportunity existed in the first place. in exchange you get money that is supposed to be related to the amount of value created, and you can spend this money on whatever valueless poo poo you prefer to do instead. but even if there was no money, or the system was something other than capitalism, why should you be exempted from the responsibility to do something that is useful to others in society? if your fundamental complaint about having a job is that you're beholden to others' wishes, then unless you want to live in a cabin in the woods, how do you propose to change this? maybe if left to your own devices, you will write a bunch of cool open sores software, that's neat, but what if all i want to do is smoke weed every day?

I got the strongest urge to get out of programming (and into more satisfying but far less lucrative jobs like teaching) when I felt the worst. then I got meds, therapy, but especially a live-in girlfriend (and a dog) and my perspective on money and work itself changed completely. I mean technically I'm still working for some dude (don't know about the yacht, but he rides a harley and plays golf), and the idea I'm really doing it for her (and the dog) is irrational wishful thinking, but I'm happy

I feel okay about spending time because before work, I was spending a majority of my time either playing repetitive games or just studying. Studying also took way more than 40 hours a week and was terrible because I never knew when it was enough to pass/get the grade I want.

man, tell me about it, before examinations at the uni I got gut cramps and nervous diarrhea. to study for Logic from absolute ignorance of the topic, I took a week off work which I spent in a 6 hours awake, 2 hours asleep cycle, and my waking hours in a 50 minutes study, 10 minutes play cycle. aced the test, immediately forgot everything

is there a formal, structured method to analyze a programming language? this in house programming language another group is using to test my project -- i've got a growing list of complaints that i'd like to turn into something other than jira tickets.

unfortunately i don’t think there exists a tool to analyze the syntactical effectiveness of any language. most language analyzers are specific to one language, like http://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/. you could modify an existing tool for the language you are using. its assumed that the maintainers of languages actually know what they are doing, and given that you are using an in-house language, i’m guessing that the truth is far from that.

the syntax is simple (xml and ${...} variables). the part i'm having trouble with is finding a way to organize my arguments about the language. for example, the variable scope is all hosed. test cases are defined by a <TestCase/>, which has <set/>, <assert/> elements. But <TestCase/> can also have child elements of <TestCase type="procedure"/> which are supposed to be reusable functions. XML code:XML code:

i've brought up several times that its loving stupid to make our own language with xml syntax, why can't we just use a language that already exists? "well sometimes the best solution is the solution that's 2nd best for everyone" well what about these design flaws "file a jira ticket"

i think the biggest complaint here is that they're trying to write an imperative language using a sequence of xml elements when xml's ordering is undefined. but really thats not going to burn you because the only xml parser that operates out of order is the one that does so purposefully. it does look like they've mixed up their definitions of local and global, though.

yeah really to be fair it does what the say it will, and they're doing a decent job of documenting. its just that its so pointless and dumb. like the way they decided to implement if-else: XML code:

i don't know, my grand manager shut me down the last time i tried to talk about it. now that my manager quit and now my grand manager is my manager maybe it'll be different. they want a test frame-work independent way to test UI's. why can't they just define a set of java API's that abstract Jemmy/JemmyFX/etc? well bc they want to generate the test scripts from an Excel spreadsheet. Why can't they generate Java / Groovy scripts instead of xml? well because reasons reasons reasons reasons
