In our company, we have a 30-day post deployment window where the project team continues to support the project, and all issues - whether they are enhancements or defects - goes to the project team to work on. During this time, the project team is also transitioning the project (through KT sessions) to the maintenance team. After the 30 day window is up, all future issues are entered into the helpdesk system where the maintenance team takes care of them. Any enhancements that are beyond a certain deliverable threshold (i.e. an enhancement that takes more than 80 hours of developer time, or some other measurement) are usually deferred to an "Application version 2" project that will spin up some time in the future.

I don't do much .net development any more these days, but back when I did, I always preferred NH because I had to support legacy databases. I could map a boolean in my model to a char(1) in the database without having to muck up the model code with mapping information. At the time, EF (5? I think it was?) didn't have that capability yet. Don't know if it has it yet or not.

I credit my snooze alarm with my amazing ability to easily add 9 to any value in my head.

haha, At the company I work for, we have several systems that use delivery dates as primary keys/foreign keys. So we decided on using ints for this as well. Today is the integer value 20171004

Clearly the problem is your app is continuously bloating, even before it installs. Android is only thinking of your future needs.

print len(' ')

Those look like leading blanks to me, not trailing blanks.

I don't see what took them so long. All they have to do is let go and they'll fall into space.

That's a big deal for a command line extremist. I would have figured vim or something similar.

They also licensed KitKat when that was a thing.

The browser is bundled with these types of applications. Not that that is necessarily a good thing. Complaints abound of bloat for all these Electron apps.

People say the sign of the devil is the number 666. They're wrong. His sign is a blue and red interstate shield with 405 on it. (used to drive the 405 from North Orange County to Irvine every day)

What if you pull in to recharge and all units are busy? Are you willing to wait a few hours?

One of the mechanisms that most EV folks talk about are universal batteries/battery swapping. i.e. you don't pull into a station to recharge, you pull into a station to swap battery packs, and the recharging happens elsewhere. Now, whether or not that becomes a reality in 20 years is another story.

Agree 100%. And security should be like a third of the course. Viruses and how to avoid them. Malware attack vectors. Minimization and protection methods. Now that I think about it, computer classes should be a lot like STD classes: What to look for, what are the horrible, horrible things that could happen if you don't protect yourself, and how to properly protect yourself.

So... Is this evidence of Chem Trails?

When you log in the visualstudio.com did you get asked if your account was "Provided by your employer" or a "Personal Account"? (or something along those lines) If so, I found out that you always have to choose "Personal Account", even if it's employer supplied. I found that nugget buried under a trash heap in the corner of the internet.

I think it bears repeating every time someone talks about WebAssembly and asm.js in the same post (because many folks are still hazy on it): they are two entirely different beasts. WebAssembly is a binary (well, bytecode) distribution. asm.js is just a very strict subset of javascript (generally limited to the pieces that perform the best), but it is still javascript and runs through the browser's javascript engine.
