I managed to stub my toe. It's kind of funny, because I stubbed my toe at my daughter's birthday party a little over 2 years ago. I thought it was broken, so I got it checked out, but lucky me it wasn't. Same toe, same birthday place (for my son this time), stubbed my toe even harder this time. It's discolored this time, but not swollen. I can walk, so I'm assuming it'll be fine.
But I really don't want to be walking around as much as I should be right now. Kind of just want to hide in my office. But I have work to do in the lab, and not really all that much to do at my computer.
If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep dancing

My boss put in his two weeks notice on Friday. I have to accelerate plans to take over his position and now I'm very stressed out that HR is going to fuck me over.

What experiment? He's only playing a single movie once. Don't see how it's different than watching any other flick.
It did not dawn on me until this exact moment that Tim is actually playing the movie on repeat and saying that it's only once. I thought the whole joke was you would expect the movie to be on repeat but instead he only plays it once.
FFFFF
I finally got a response from Kroger telling me I was overqualified

Or, if you're in one of the airline members' lounge and a guy asks for a bottle of nice champagne, and then mixes it with canned grapefruit juice they have behind the bar. And possibly gives the Filipino bartender a hard time when she asks does he really want the nice champagne if he's going to do that.
Apparently it's impossible to just cut a check for an employee that has been working and whom you've neglected to pay? Or to communicate at all with that employee. My girlfriend is now talking to the Union about her options and lawyer help.
I'm starting to think maybe the HR person is pulling double duty as the Astros PR person, because the easy solution is just, right there, and they're refusing to do it.
Consensus seems to be that it's accurate, even if they don't like the delivery method. (whether executives are listening or not is another matter)
I... what? Semicolons and open curly brackets are both allowed and disallowed?
It's nice when a company comes right out and tells you they're doing naughty things with their database, like not sanitizing input and storing passwords in plain text.

I have an SQL query question that i'm currently unable to put in easily googlable format
So I have a list of ID#s and for each ID I have a starting date and an ending date
Is there an easy way to take a table with the three columns above and push that into another query to pull me all records with each ID between the start and end dates for that ID?
I already built a query that has the where statement for the ID and between x and y
There is a response from HR, in an email timestamped 5 minutes before they go home.
It's a generic form "Thank you for bringing this to our attention, we'll investigate and get back to you in a few days." email. So no word on her paycheck yet.
It's not even directly affecting me and I'm becoming stabby and incoherent with anger and frustration. Wow.

Can't remember where you are but if you're not in the hell hole of worker rights that is the South they've likely broken some local DoL regs. Actually, they've probably broken a shitload with her working for a few weeks uncompensated and falsified workers comp reports.
Edit: Actually they're talking to a lawyer and union. They'll know that stuff way better.

Yes, "nice."
I still think the biggest crime is that he can't cancel the VSI without speaking to support.
Peace to fashion police, I wear my heart
On my sleeve, let the runway start
I swear New Zealand is just trolling everybody else in the world.
I can go on and on with out NM is being beyond stupid this legislative session
From tying oil and gas futures to education to inviting two questionable companies to the former virgin galactic spaceport and so much more
Still it bothers me I have yet to hear back from Walmart from the job offer they gave me back in Dec. the email notice from Kroger saying they don't want me and other things

Waitangi Day is like a reverse US Independence Day. The day the British took over. It used to be pretty controversial and people would throw cowpats (and one time a dildo) at politicians but recently its been fairly sedate and uneventful. To the point where people have started complaining that Waitangi Day has gotten boring.

In retrospect, it was probably a mistake to make national foundation day and indigenous race relations day at the same holiday.

I mean, sure, but the rest is pretty much an example of how NOT to do modern developer experience.
Was it not done purposely out of spite? I know that's why MLK day is also Robert E. Lee day in several of the more genetically bottlenecked states.
The founding of NZ was a treaty between the British and many (but not all) Māori which gave (some/all) control to the Queen. Its not so much that we combined them as that they are one and the same. Its... complicated, there's a lot to e proud of and even more to be ashamed of.

Fortuitously accidental. The British Crown acquired sovereignty over NZ not by conquering and exterminating the Maori, but by signing a treaty with them.
Of course, the translation into Te Reo wasn't the best, so that wasn't what the local Maori chiefs thought they were signing.
The second project of this bootcamp is conceptual design of a desktop e-commerce site for a local business we have a relationship with...
And my homework for tonight is figuring out the tactful way to tell the boardgame store i used to work at that their website is "rul bad and can I interview you about it as part of the research process"
