Daily Chit-Chat: What even is this?

[Tsutarja]

Speaking of RMAs I am waiting for iFixit to get back to me on a screen they sent me that had a defect for my iPhone. In the meantime I have been using my Moto G again, although its camera sucks. :|

Been working my way through a merge request my husband filed a few days ago for our Community Software, and I've managed to write some stunningly generic code for the routing functionality used by Express. I posted it on GitHub Gist, and there are some homemade doc comments I wrote breaking it all down.

I know JavaScript is quite often underestimated, but this is arguably more straightforward than C++ when it comes to metaprogramming. It gives the JIT compiler as much room as possible to optimise, thanks to the power of function expressions and async.

 

[Tsutarja]

Back to using my iPhone again! Although what's interesting to note here is that it's the same screen as before instead of a new one since I somehow got it to work again.

We all shall embrace the Steve Ballmer within us.

 

[moon]

this is very confusing ahah

 

[Tsutarja]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

 

[Incineroar]

Looks like Ballmer got a little drunk here... Nothing to see, move along.

Pssst, can I start crying yet? The stress of this BA degree in IT is getting to me. Rippp.

 

[Incineroar]

I am in my last week here at the college for the semester and the weight of assignments is really starting to get to me and I don't want to do any of them... ugh

 

[Tsutarja]

I don't even want to know about that, because I'll be starting my BSAS in IT in August, which picks up from where my AS left off.

 

[Leviathan]

Good. Let's all suffer together. Things got worse for me today; got spooked by the news that the technical interview I've to give for my dissertation was scheduled for tomorrow only to later be told that it is actually scheduled for the 17th instead. Yikes!

 

[Alexander Nicholi]

Updated and corrected a lot of the details on the project I'm leading development for, namely ÔÇô, on the company's webpage for it.

Been reading through the Vulkan API header to write the startup routine for a Vulkan-based renderer, when I have time! Currently away from home in New Orleans to see WWE. The page should give a good summary of things for laymen and programmers alike.

I really wish I could spend some time from home. Hopefully I'll be going to Calgary next month for a work training seminar, so it'll be really nice to get out of the city for a few days.

Trying to finish an assignment where we use jQuery and JavaScript to implement Minesweeper, and that's about half done, then I have one other assignment in using PHP for form verification. Can't wait to have it all be done so I can get to my final project.

That's cool. Just got back from New Orleans yesterday, crashed like a rock from outer space.

About a week ago I applied for a job at Red Hat, and today I decided the PDF I printed verbatim from my website's page just looked terrible.

Redid it in Publisher, and this is how it came out:

Spoiler:

Unfortunately, their jobs portal listed my application for that job as "resumé received", although I was still able to resubmit my resumé to my portal profile. Fingers crossed :P

 

[Incineroar]

Well, got Minesweeper back. 120% mark (10/10 for the assignment itself, plus 2 bonus marks for correctly implementing the recursive reveal function), and I'm on to the PHP form verification assignment. It's slowly coming along but I'm only just now getting things working, some parts of my form won't show up under some conditions. Managed a workaround but it's not as optimal as I wanted it to be. Oh well, it works.

 

[Tsutarja]

I wish my home speeds matched my work speeds.

 

[Alexander Nicholi]

I wrote about Arqadium?s production of the ??? Engine, explaining its development and release models, and its roadmap to release: https://nicholatian.com/oco/continuous.md

It?s been dark themed and all for optimal viewing.

 

[Tsutarja]

Back on my Moto G again. I think something on my iPhone's logic board was shot because even with a screen replacement, touch responsiveness was becoming unreliable.

Getting a new phone hopefully by the end of the week

 

[Incineroar]

Well, I'm now drawing out sketches for my programming job. Gotta come up with some concepts for the UI that I am to code out. This will be fun...

Oh that sounds fun... reminds me of when I used to draw small comics in class, and when I drew a computer screen I used to always draw Windows with the taskbar and icons.

Also, lorem ipsum is your friend too.
