It’s pretty useful ‘for work’ because occasionally you’ll get notifications when parts of infra might be down (like your build server)
It’s more the fault of the implementation and documentation.
Yea sure. Though it’s slightly XMLs fault for allowing that kinda implementations. Every random thing is in it’s own obscure namespace with 20 levels of nested objects in different namespaces, and if you get anything wrong it barely explains what’s wrong, and just refuses to work.
It’s mostly WCFs fault. I just automatically associate XML with nightmare flashbacks of implementing WCF stuff
Uh-huh… ever tried to integrate with a poorly implement WCF service? Like communication from a Java service to a dotnet service through a WSDL?
I’ll take a json API over XML any day
At some I added logging to a thread pool, when it gave up on child-threads, it would be logging things like
“Child 123 is being aborted”
Not the best of phrasing for people that didn’t know what that was about…
Omg it’s sooo daammmn slooow it takes around 30 seconds to bulk - insert 15000 rows
Do you have any measurements on how long it takes when you just ‘do it raw’? Like trying to do the same insert though SQL Server Management Studio or something?
Because to me it’s not really clear what’s slow. Like you’re complaining specifically about the Microsoft ODBC driver - but do you base that on anything? Can you insert faster from Linux or through other means?
Like if it’s just ‘always slow’ it might just be the SQL Server. If you can better pinpoint when it’s slow, and when it’s fast(er) that probably helps to tell how to speed it up
When I stopped, subversion was what we used. I’m trying to understand Git, but it’s a giant conceptual leap.
It’s probably not ‘that much of a leap’ as you imagine. If you’re looking at Git tutorials, they’re usually covering all kinda complex scenarios of how to ‘properly use Git’. But a lot of people barely care about ‘properly using Git’ and they just kinda use it as a substitute for SVN… You create branches, you merge them back and forth, and that’s about it.
Like if you want to contribute to an open source project, all you have to do is create a fork (your own branch in SVN terms) - commit some stuff to it, and create a pull request (request to have your changes merged) back to the original branch. git pull is just svn update - getting someone elses commits
Not saying there aren’t more complex features in git, or that learning git properly isn’t worth it, just saying, I don’t think you have to see it as a ‘giant conceptual leap’ that’s preventing you from jumping back into programming. Easiest approach just to get started would be probably to just download a GUI like Sourcetree or Fork, and you just kinda pretend you’re still using SVN - approach wise
That laser at the end should have been Java Technology™ ;
You point it at anything, and end up with a huge dumpster fire… Sounds like Java to me
Problem Details for HTTP APIs - I have to work and integrate with a lot of different APIs and different kinda implementations of error handling. Everyone seems to be inventing their own flavor of returning errors.
My life would be so much easier if everyone just used some ‘global unified’ way to returning errors, all in the same way
Well you need to try and catch when getting the file anyways, it’s probably very rare but imagine a scenario of:
Or the file could exist, but you don’t have permissions to actually open it.
So a bunch of languages / already have their own “try open file”
I agree with @remotelove@lemmy.ca - since you "don’t know where to start“ - just start simple. Maybe lemmy will be fine for now.
Otherwise, to at least pitch some alternative: you can Google for a vbulletin host. A lot of hosting providers offer a “managed vbulletin” solution. Meaning you don’t have to get a bare metal machine and don’t have to be bothered with installing all the software yourself.
I don’t know if there are free solutions, but with a quick Google, it doesn’t seem like it’s more than a couple $ a month for a small server
What are you building, it depends a bit on your usecase
Otherwise c# Blazor compiles to WASM
Whatever you do, don’t use G2A and other similar CD key reseller websites
For indie games, sure, I always just buy those legit.
But some EA / Ubisoft game; I rather pay $5 on G2A than risk accidentally downloading a malware infected crack
Where does it end though? It’s a bit like infinite craft - but instead of combining resources you’d have to find an inverse for every emoji
It’s a bit weird how that actually works though…
“Which of these pictures are traffic lights?”
I’d hope with all the self-driving-(ish) cars coming out, any AI like that should be able to identify a traffic light, right?
If it’s a public repo, revoke the key (on your own/company repo it might not matter so much)
Then
git reset head~1git push - f
Interesting idea to store github comments inside git, the article just isn’t very clear to me on how to actually do it.
He’s talking about using an “internal CLI tool” so I guess it’s not a public tool?
But anyways, this kinda sounds like something you could do though a Github Action right? Like if a PR is merged, run an action that also appends PR comments or other meta-data from github into git
I’ve started to prefer option A to be honest.
In C# I’m using Verify - So I prefer to just use Verify(state); and compare the entire state against a json saved state, instead of manually verifying every individual property
Do you have any book recommendations?
I think The Pragmatic Programmer by Andy Hunt and Dave Thomas is a great book everyone should read every couple of years. It’s not really a lot of “low level coding tips” - more like overall paradigms
I’m always privating my repos because I’m not sure if I’m doing some horrible beginner inefficiency/bad practice where I should be embarrassed for having written it, let alone for letting other people see it.
Well that’s something not to do. Make you “horrible code” public, and ask people to do a code review. Or see what contributors want to change through a PR (if you’re so lucky). You’re not going to learn anything from others by hiding your mistakes. And no one besides you really cares if you’re committing horrible code.
It’s pretty hard to just give generic advice on how to write clean code, but if people can just tell specifically what you can improve it’s much easier
No, not some internal company, just Microsoft being Microsoft. So all Windows pipelines. They also have Linux based pipelines so not completely all pipelines.
But given that a lot of people build dotnet stuff on Azure, the ‘windows-latest’ image is usually the default. So a lot of pipelines
