Ironically, Stack Overflow is probably the site that is down the most out of any site I use.

When I have a Jenkins build fail, then fix the issue, I run the build four more times manually to make that branch "sunny" again.

I hope I never again have the misfortune of having to get projects for Eclipse-based IDEs building in an automated headless way.

I've only just discovered the C comma operator. I don't know how I completely missed it for so long.

The most important part of compiling is whispering "Come on, you can do it, you can do it" to the server.

I'm playing with a Z80 SBC, and I was trying to run the old Star Trek game on it. I had a C source file, and used a makefile to try to compile it. It failed due to various library issues, but I just checked the folder (I had done this earlier today) and there's an EXE of the Star Trek game sitting there. I don't know how I compiled it for Windows. I didn't use any CC or GCC commands. I'm just confused.

I don't know what's happening. In passing a char pointer to a function. I'm having issue, so I'm printf'ing the address pointed to by the pointer. Right after I assign it, it contains the right address, but the printf on the next line has it containing a different address. Another printf shows another different value, but all the following printfs show that third value. They're all consecutive printfs with nothing happening in between in the program, and the char* starts it's life as an array. All compiler optimizations are disabled. I don't know what's happening, it's just randomly changing. 😭

Made big change got the way some code worked. Fixed one error in my code that always causes an exception, and expected to spend another hour working on the code until it works, then having it compile and run without problems after fixing that issue. I was shocked it actually worked the way it should.

*Cuts 7 slow lines of code down to 1 fast line of code*
*Looks around to see if coworkers can see me*
*Pumps both fists in the air*

Whoever decided that Excel Sheets start at 1 in C# doesn't deserve to have a nice chair.

How the does it make sense that I need .NET Framework to uninstall VS Build Tools? The installer runs, but then fails. Just delete your damned files and registry keys.

Oh god, my little tool to make things easier is becoming a "permanent part of the process".

What a useful error message

Ah yes, I'd be happy to completely change the thing I'm working on, that is now unrelated to how you originally described the task to me.

I have to do a thing with Excel files, and I want to keep busy, so I think I'll learn F# and use .NET in that
