A new employee I took a risk on is not panning out. It's early yet so they have a few more months to gel and get up to speed but early indications are that I made a mistake. I spent a lot of time today covering their job duties and I lost my cool.
This is on me, but that's how my week is wrapping up. Sigh.
In this thread - tons of smart people thinking that the tools we use to replace "make a backup of a file on a server somewhere" should require entire reference books, as if that's normal.
Saying "it's a graph of commits" makes no sense to a layperson. Hell the word "diff" makes no sense. Requiring training to get something right is acceptable, but "using CVS" is a tiny tiny part of the job, not the whole job. I mean, even most of the commenters on this thread are getting small things wrong (and some are handwaving it away saying "oh that small detail doesn't matter").
Look, git is hard. It's learnable, but it's hard. The concepts are medium hard to understand, and the way it does things is unique and designed for distributed, asynchronous work - which are usually hard problems to solve.
Dragonlance is a good one.
They turned the inside the suit moments of Iron Man into pop culture. They could figure it out, I bet!
And we were teased about it on the SciFi channel a bunch of years ago before they instituted cost savings measures.
Yeah, that's what the conservatives love about them. That and all the indoctrination.
Small price to pay for keeping your dream alive!
That's not how it works in America FYI. Children can't inherit parent's debt. They can have inheritances taken away and they can assume debt, but it doesn't automatically go to them.
Same here when I can get it. Otherwise just coffee and movement. Getting my brain into another task helps too.

Greaaaat choice. Great collab too.
Just wrapped it. It was an amazing module and story, and while patch 2.0 was annoying, the stories and missions from phantom liberty were amazing.
