Ultimate Dirty Talk (For Database Nightmares)

The four horsemen of CS education evolution: Year 1: You're printing "Hello World" with the enthusiasm of someone who just discovered fire. "Mom! Look! The computer said words I told it to say!" Year 2: Reality hits with data structures, DBMS, and OS concepts. Your face says "I've made a terrible mistake" but your tuition says "keep going." Year 3: The existential crisis kicks in. "I wanna go home" isn't just a statement—it's your new mantra, whispered between debugging sessions at 3 AM. Year 4: Complete surrender. Your only escape plan is now a YouTube channel where you'll explain to others why they should suffer too. "Don't forget to smash that like button while I smash what's left of my sanity!"

The ABSOLUTE HORROR of fixing production database issues at 2 AM with zero documentation! 😱 Those bloodshot eyes aren't just tired—they're the windows to a soul that's been utterly DESTROYED by some random developer's "clever" SQL query that worked "just fine on my machine." Your eyeballs have transcended mere substances—they've reached a new plane of existence that even cocaine users would find concerning. Who needs sleep when you're frantically trying to understand why someone thought it was a brilliant idea to use 17 nested JOINs without a single comment?! The database is bleeding, your sanity is evaporating, and tomorrow's standup is in 5 hours. But hey, at least you'll have a fascinating story about how you saved the company while looking like you crawled out of a zombie apocalypse!

Content Ijust wanted to add to this discussion that I am just compiling on VS and GCC, and used to use include guards. I have now switched to pragma once, and the only reason for me is not 199 performance or portability or standard as I don't really care what is standard as long as VS and GCC support it, and that is that: pragma once reduces possibilities for bugs. It is all too easy to copy and paste a header file to another header file, modify it to suit ones needs, and forget to change the name of the include guard. Once both are included, it takes you a while to track down the error, as the error messages arent necessarily clear.

Forget performance--we should use pragma once because it's less error prone. It occurs to me that if compilers are already tracking include guards, they're already doing most of the work necessary to issue warnings when they see different files using the same macro name. - rieux Jun 13, 2019 at 6:36 Add a comment pragma once has unfixable bugs. It should never be used. 169 If your include search path is sufficiently complicated, the compiler may be unable to tell the difference between two headers with the same basename (e.g. afoo.h and bfoo.h), so a pragma once in one of them will suppress both. It may also be unable to tell that two different relative includes (e.g. include "foo.h" and include "..afoo.h" refer to the same file, so pragma once will fail to suppress a redundant include when it should have. lanc arca attocic tho commorc amia

Content Brian Bilston brianbilston 11h wrote a poem in a tweet but then each line grew to the word sum of the previous two until I began to worry about all these words coming with such frequency because as you can see, it can be easy to run out of space when a poem gets all Fibonacci sequency

Oh the IRONY of creating a hideous Excel chart to complain about creating hideous Excel charts! Someone really woke up and chose violence against themselves today. The self-awareness is both painful and beautiful—spending half your day making charts that look like they were designed by a colorblind toddler with a vendetta against data visualization best practices, while the actual useful analysis gets the tiniest sliver at the end. The pixelated art style really drives home that "I hate my life" energy. Nothing says "corporate suffering" quite like a bar chart that's also a cry for help!
