MrMoo posted:Why do you have multiple company JIRA accounts? Still not really a problem with SAML integration. You're a freelancer aren't you? You've never had access to more than one client's JIRA at the same time? I guess the 'trivial' fix is to make a new browser profile for each one, but that's probably not something the average user will know to do.

Loezi posted:It's not unusual in (parts of ) Europe for you to 1) not pay anything to the school and 2) the government giving you money for studying. We can also add 3) receive education, which explains why we don't think "tuition" is simply something you pay in order to get a receipt that's valuable for employment. That was hilarious.

I work with slightly inconvenient clients, the one that actually uses JIRA gave me a dedicated laptop to access it. I literally cannot use anything else to access  quote:I guess the 'trivial' fix is to make a new browser profile for each one, but that's probably not something the average user will know to do. If you take a step back, the average user does not have a JIRA account or multiple accounts in anything. It's quite common for business users to have multiple browsers at least, that's usually an easy option for 2-3 accounts.

the real danger to future salaries isn't too many people getting degrees, it's too many people getting an education. keep supply low!

I've inherited an old website project. I've so far had to fix multiple instances of unsalted MD5, error reporting that was public, and more. I want to die. (Actually, I want the people who did this to die).

This makes sense, I guess, but I've literally never heard the term "tuition" referring to anything other than the money you pay to be able to attend classes and receive grades. That of course doesn't include the fees, or the room and board if you want to live on campus, or the books.

What words "literally" mean quite often tells you little about their meaning in actual, common usage.

Also, I remember making goofs like that at my first job, but to be fair that was back in 2005-ish when the idea of comprehensive MD5 rainbow tables was still a new and wild idea.

While we're at it, we should stop saying "paying rent". We should be saying "paying rental fees" otherwise it's confusing to the people in this thread.

Osmosisch posted:Nobody's denying that, it's just funny that people were acting baffled that the word 'tuition' itself could possibly mean anything else. I was not acting. I had never encountered the word "tuition" as a single word being used to mean tuition fees before, and intuited a different meaning to the phrase "increase tuition" in the post I was responding to, leading me to talk to other posters at cross purposes. Specifically, whereas tuition is the act or practice of teaching someone, I intuited "increase tuition" to mean something like "increase students' contact time and attention from academic staff". Not only is that something else that the phrase "could possibly" mean, I would contend that it's the single most obvious thing it might mean. It turns out that in American English the use of "tuition" to mean "tuition fees" is idiomatic, but I didn't know that at the time and I don't think I can really be blamed for not guessing that this word whose meaning I thought I knew was being used according to an idiom unfamiliar to me! Someone posted suggesting that not knowing the idiom is akin to not understanding that the word "rent" is commonly used to mean "rental fees"; but that meaning is not specific to a local variety of English so far as I am aware and besides renting something is taken to mean, essentially universally, that you are renting it in exchange for a consideration. Whereas tuition (by which I mean the act of teaching something) is not universally something done for money; a pre-school child may be tutored in reading by a parent for example. So the analogy is a poor one. This derail is sufficiently long already and I am not going to post about this any more.

Argh, if you're going to take the time to pull out a chunk of code that's shared between two packages into a separate, common one, take another day to fully convert the originating packages to use the shared one or else things will just diverge again and require reconciling all three variants six months later when the work is taken back up.  I swear I've seen a comic that touched on this, but I can't find it for the life of me.
