What else would you expect from developers? Devs are usually inteligent people who are akward in real life but make up for it by playing god in virtual world. Expected result, I'd say.

@aaxa That's completely true. :) Eh, I'm just getting old, I guess.

This is the fact I hate most about this profession.

Well, I think it's best to use the thing you know really good. Use new tech on personal projects, not in a work environment. That said, I cant imagine a thing where either Python or Java would be considered a good choice :-P

Online and android app just leave it as true. Just tested.

Well, we're probably just someones AI school project anyways. And yes, our existence is pointless.

Well, there is a good probability we live in a simulation anyways... :)

Haha. I always laugh so hard on these 'vs guy she tells you not to worry about' memes... Because it shows how low self esteem and/or confidence some men have... LOL. :)

Well played!

I try to keep my avatar as true to reality as possible.

... yea. Startups are a bit overused nowadays.

Well, it's a very cool idea that could eventually land you the job (because of the demonstrated skills), but I would love tho hear the conversation when they actually call you and you have no idea who or from where is calling :)

@scriptex - I ended up using both functions. But, I did expect Angulars function would already use the NaN check.

Yey! 100 upvotes, yet no comments :) Interesting.

If I got a question like that, I would laugh and probably leave. I don't need to work for a company where they google "How to interview developers" before the interview.

I leave comments like this in the code. I even sign my name under, so people don't need to check Git Blame who wrote them. :)

Stay clear of WPF. Just use Win Forms. :)

You should just ignore all inferior devices/systems and only build native Win desktop applications. /s

@SpeedyCate
Just find an image that is already set up with things you need.

@liammartens Never touching one of those ever again! :D

@liammartens That would be defined as an 'edge case' in my book :D

Docker runs perfectly fine on Windows. And, also install Kitematic.

Virtual Machines, Laragon, Vagrant, Docker... pick your poison.

@KeirDavis1 - Of course I just jumped in. Was I supposed to take a three month seminar first. It said - have a project up and running in a minute. And, I used similar tools before.

Everything I needed to know about Docker I found out in 30 minutes. The issue was that I was given images that were not set up correctly. As in - I was given an out of date composer file, so 3 out of 4 containers started correctly, but the 4th - DB one - didn't.
Don't see how that's my fault.

Also, I don't go clicking random stuff in context menus if I'm not sure what it does. Kitematic meant nothing to me when I saw it there.

Update 2: after I managed to set up everything via console, I discovered that Docker offers GUI called Kitematic. Looks good and makes things much easier.

@No-one No, as I was given a DB image that should have work. It did not. What's the point of Docker if I had to create an image from scratch?

Update: It's working now, but I had to make my own, fresh DB image/container.
