Mine is also from the "Born to be a Bureaucrat" song but it's the "born to be all obsessive and snotty. I made my friends and relations fill long applications to get into my tenth birthday party" part.

They actually did follow up, and the episode was one of the better ones:

Spoiler: https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Course:_Oblivion_(episode)

Though between "Demon" and "Course Oblivion" that's a good question. We don't see Voyager itself getting duplicated, so I guess they spent the time building it out of rocks and then forgetting they were duplicates.

Constantly. Usually it takes the form of reducing topics to binary choices and/or purity tests.

  • "You're either with me or against me / You're either part of the solution or part of the problem"
    • Where "part of the solution" means doing exactly, and only exactly what they think you should be doing.
  • "If you don't satisfy all of my impossible requirements, you're ~~as bad as~~ a nazi"
  • "We only agree on 99 out of 100 things, so clearly you're not to be trusted"
  • etc

Sounds like at least a minor improvement. Can those me moved and still work? Like, if I move the project folder, do I have to reinitialize it and download all the packages again?

For me, it's the rigid and wonky virtual environments. I get why they're useful and necessary, but they're awkward to use. Like, Node just works from the working directory with no fuss and python has to be all source {venv}/bin/activate and lord help you if you need to move it.

Plus, I have never liked that the spacing is load-bearing.

You're empathizing with the troll, too? 👀

FYI: What the troll is describing is not required all. I don't know what they're on about, but I've used ldap-js in many projects without having to do any of that.

For the longest time (relatively speaking), I would do full stack Javascript (like the meme). But I have to frequently tie into AD/LDAP and the only decent NodeJS library for LDAP is no longer maintained because the community was shitty to the dev. Now I've had to venture out into Go (I can't stand working in Python).

Let this be a reminder to be nice to the developers who are giving you their hard work for free.

Unfortunately, our WAF appliances don't have a Heisenberg compensator.

"I get why we have a WAF, but can't you just, like, separate the good SQL injection from the bad SQL injection?" -- Developers I work with 😆

Thanks :)

My home instance has some top-shelf custom emojis, so I try to use them. Janeway's eye roll gets a lot of mileage.
