I'm going to go with 'no'.

@gorenbk last check-in was three months ago. Is this still under development?

@SoldierOfCode English may not be their first language. I can appreciate "someone needs to document it" may not come across the same way as "I'm really hoping for someone to help me document it, and I'd be extremely grateful" but I don't think it deserved the harshness of your response.

I'll check it out. I love databases and I love documentation ...
Documentation is like pizza; when it's excellent that's wonderful, but even when it's not so great it's still better than not having any. -
So no discussion about it?

That’s ridiculous of them, but nevertheless, if you are on Windows download and install WinDirStat - it will show what’s going on.
Could well be email, the Windows SxS folder where it holds all the updates, temp files, Node modules, etc -
I’ve always found Parallels on Mac to be a smooth experience. One of its options allows you to run virtualised Windows apps outside of a Windows desktop so the apps appear side-by-side with your Mac apps.

Hey, bud.

I'm sure he's good for $11K. I remember when he told his story about trying to sell HIBP, paying $1m to an accounting firm, and then deciding not to sell.

@AleCx04 yes! That’s it … business intelligence - so queries, reporting, etc.
-
@TeachMeCode yep! Still, she has started creating some great visualisations but clearly her general computer aptitude is just not there.

So awesome. The Commodore 64 really did create a whole generation of programmers. There was something so magical about a box that could do wonderful things and sat waiting for you to enter the commands to make it do so.
While there have been awesome improvements in technology it is kind of sad today’s youth don’t really get to explore or understand the devices they have beyond touching a screen. -
@PeterGibbons woah, way to miss the forest for the trees there, Peter. The point is simply saying “we are agile” does not make a company agile.

The manager is crap. It's their role, as a manager, to remove impediments from their team and to ensure you are freed to be as productive as you can.
I believe I know what they meant - for instance, maybe you were being asked to change the toner in a printer because you're in "IT" (whether a developer or something else). Now, it needs to be done, but it shouldn't be you. It should be the lowest-paid person who is capable of doing it.
However, for the manager to say "you shouldn't be doing it" and then still leave it on your plate is a problem. That manager should have gone and spoken with (say) the Administration team leader, or whoever, and figured out how to get it off your plate.
The fact they didn't is a sign of bad management. -
The link now goes to a Japanese online store.
