haha. had a call with a new provider system were brining on and they had their tech people on the phone responsible for parts of epic and they were confused when I was talking about API access. have a call later this week with their epic "integration team" which idk if that's some other clueless person in the hospital or if its someone from epic. cant wait.

MrMoo posted:slashdot has a big post on US tech salaries and the majority of replies are employees proud of their lack of work-life balance and jealously of Indian outsourcing. i just looked it up. the majority of replies are saying that outsourcing indian devs sucks for the obvious reasons.

its my project where im driving headless winword instances over com to scrape data hard to say if winword is hanging on a (hidden, of course) dialogbox or if the network accessed word documents are just taking forever to iterate through

i wrote an outlook integration job that on 50% of runs logs out "error during cleanup: COM interop probably failed. ignore." because it would continuously fail to release its sessions and shutdown cleanly

(already knew we sucked, didn't know if it was an industry thing). I've only been in a training group for the past few months since I started. I have a twisted desire to get placed in one of the old school $T groups and just throw my mouse in the garbage. then I say, god, no, let me get thrown into a group working with the new web ehr stuff. but then I remember, no, you don't get to write code in anything that's not MAGI, FS, or MAT. maybe I can find the right dick to suck and get put in a group that actually works on the front end of that web her and write code in a REAL programming language... JavaScript. . . . . ....

Shaggar posted:that's not com's fault its word's Yeah, the word com api is absolutely terrible. I've done work involving editing and generating documents via that API and holy crap you can do some wonderful things. We had code that deleted a particular line in a table embedded in the document. If the table didn't contain that line, the delete command still ran on the location it thought that element should be but instead managed to delete the end of the document. I don't mean it deleted some content from the end of the document, but it literally deleted what ever concept word has meaning "the document ends here". The document would literally scroll infinitely downwards until word exploded.

FS has named code members but I'm not sure if that is really enabled for everything. it also has about the same readability as regular expressions. I can truly say that writing JavaScript is the highlight of my day. maybe I need an intervention.
