Soul sole

I hope the conclusion is that annual notifications work.

wikipedia is too much.

Many microcontrollers can be set up for in circuit programming.

They might be intended for one time programming in the factory, but solder some wires on in the right place and supply the right signal and it can be reprogrammed.

Is that a circuit or a computer?

Have you ever tried driving to a place you’d never go?

I’m talking about sotware they produce and my employer buys that i’m expected to use.

I can’t rewrite their “tools” and databases and fucking awful cloud-web front end things. I tend to think multi-billion$ shitware companies should do that; but even so no way I’d be allowed.

Yes, I do end up having to write my own tools choosing whatever free stuff I’m allowed to have, or can get working, Yes, It’s incredibly easy in any half way decent (including free) software, far from rocket science, that is until you try to put something back into a database via one of these “tools”.

So you work around, pre-processing, post-processing, get it working. Then they unexpectedly release a “patch” that sees through my work-a-round and tries to convert the thing i’d convinced it to treat as string into a screwed up datetime again.

Next time, I will prepend “fuckoracleiquit” to all datetimes before they go into the database.

They need to be told a fuck of a lot harder then.

Yes.

If I saw that in a job advert I might just apply without reading the rest. I don’t think I ever have though.

It doesn’t “annoy” me.

I like employers to be open and honest about their various incompetencies. Saves time.

There’s a few other warning signs in that statement too - nice of them sift themselves out so quickly.

Please someone tell oracle and microsoft.

RTFW
