There are plenty of corporations with old codebases that use old libraries that simply will not allow them to migrate that easily. Then you need to sell the migration to management, which is a project in and of itself. Just because you could migrate (incidentally, I did as well for one of my java projects) doesn't mean that others can. dougdrums posted:holy poo poo, there's a java 11? the horror There's 14 released now. 15 coming this September.

I think when searching 'wireshark', 'search web for wireshark' will be the first option and not, ya know, wireshark the installed program. I know there are a couple other where it'll do it too. I don't know what causes it.

The worst is when the right match flashes by while you're typing. So "terminal" appears for "term", but by the time your muscle memory finishes typing "inal" it changed to some bullshit like "Watch Terminator on Amazon Prime".

If they're using a client library instead of talking COM directly, then a "is the program I'm trying to talk to even installed to begin with" function is an entirely reasonable thing for the client lib to have. So it could be more of an attribution error.

Hammerite posted:The best support email ever Can you install the SDK on its own though, without the software? It sounds like they're just asking whether the SDK itself has a convenient method they can leverage for detecting whether the software itself is installed. But I'm coming at this without knowing anything about the software obviously so who knows, I'm probably just sounding stupid also.

I probably already shared the bug here... I got a call from the customer. "Our site is full of cats!". I checked production, and it was real, every image was replaced by a photo of a cat. Article news, everything but icons and logos. We quickly fixed it. In development we used https://placekitten.com/ to replace photos, and it was accidentally enabled in production.
