Yet another security system compromised. Same poo poo different day. I swear it's nearly guaranteed to happen to every company at some point. At least the numbers were encrypted. They didn't say anything about passwords so I guess it's just sales data?

Dear Java updater: if you have an option to change how often you notify me of updates (once a month), please adhere to it. This poo poo where you wait until ~5 minutes after I've started Windows and am already doing something and then steal focus, every single day, is a never-ending source of irritation.

dogstile posted:Well i'm a loving idiot. One of out clients who I talked to a fair bit and got on with asked me if people at my company liked her. I said "its probably mixed, as with working relationship some people like working with certain people more than others" and assured her that everyone I heard talking about her liked her. This sounds hilarious. What kind of complaint can someone make about people not liking them, exactly? "Someone smiled at me today but it was slightly smaller than the smiles I get from other people.

AlternateAccount posted:Well, the other side of that is coming in late is a pretty hard thing to defend and get self-righteous about. I don't think it is! He's a dev, it barely matters at all when he's in, unless his non-presence is keeping others from progressing. E.g. where I work (a software company), we have "core hours" during which everyone is officially expected to be at work (9am-3pm I think), partially for that purpose, and partially so customers can find us. Thing is though, it's so unimportant in practice that we have people who ignore it on a daily basis and nobody cares. As long as people get their work done in a reasonable timeframe, it basically doesn't matter when you are or aren't there. This is at a big company whose name you would recognize.

It's this loving unreliable sync system.. it's the 21st century, can't we have the data stored in the butt or something? dissss posted:Apparently the new owners of Saleslogix (it has changed hands twice in the past couple of years) are focusing 'all development effort' on their butt-hosted offering. Cloud-to-butt is becoming reality.

In TYOOL 2014 explorer.exe has been crashing on me. I'm pretty sure it's InfoPath's fault. Also, in TYOOL 2014, I am still using InfoPath. Could be worse though; I could still be on 2007 instead of 2010.

My company acts on Gallup results. At the local level at least, not sure about what happens at higher levels. Sometimes the action doesn't produce anything of value but we all try. I thought it was going to be a bullshit survey at first, but I was wrong. I still expect it to be bullshit at most places though.

See also: hacking and probably many others. Words get appropriated by the general public who redefine it to mean what they think it means.

loving hackers, all of you. My local news site did that too, but they eventually fixed it. I only knew about it for a week or so.

Maybe they wanted to know if a package had arrived? Tracking numbers are often not very accurate.

McDeth posted:Serious question: You're an IT Vendor that has sold a company on a product that you said could do X, Y and Z. It turns out that the original product can do everything except for Z but you've already spent 10 hours on a fixed-cost bid researching why it can't do Z. I think this could result in a yes in certain situations. It depends on things like: do they make the device, was there any voiced uncertainty about whether it could do Z, do they specialize in that type of equipment, what does the official literature about the device say, etc. If there's a history of improper billing or general incompetence, then it is more likely to be no, but imo it's not as simple to decide based on what was posted here.

That depends on your company's culture. But even regardless of that, trying to enforce it is going too far. Nod and put on headphones or something.

I could see it being a valid choice if your software connects to a database you don't control, on a high latency connection, and caches the data for further use.

To be good at something, you have to do it frequently. Just like software engineering is not network administration, writing a driver is not writing a website.
