If You're Happy And You Know It, Syntax Error!

Nobody asked for it, yet there we all were, staring at those hypnotic blobs and waves in Windows Media Player like they were revealing the secrets of the universe. The perfect entertainment for a dial-up internet era when downloading a single MP3 took longer than cooking a Thanksgiving dinner. Those visualizations were basically screensavers with a soundtrack, but damn if they weren't the pinnacle of digital entertainment in 2003. Kids today with their Spotify will never understand the deep connection between music appreciation and abstract digital blob-watching.

Nothing like the sweet satisfaction of naming your corporate organizational script GetMinions.ps1 and watching your boss squirm. Corporate wants to track their human resources? Sure, let's call it what it really is! The fact this memory popped up 6 years later means it was absolutely worth getting scolded for. The best code documentation is the kind that tells the uncomfortable truth—just remember to rename it to something soulless like GetReportingStructure.ps1 before pushing to production.

The rarest cryptid in tech: a functional Windows troubleshooter. After 15 years in the industry, I've seen unicorns, competent project managers, and code that works on the first try—but a Windows troubleshooter that actually fixes something? That's the stuff of legend. The comment is pure gold though. Using your one Christmas miracle on Windows fixing itself is like using a genie's wish to get an extra napkin. Next they'll tell us printers connected on the first try.

Someone's Windows display settings got absolutely wrecked, and now they're being asked to identify which monitor is which in a lineup that looks like someone played Tetris with their screens while having a seizure. The monitors are numbered 1-12 in what appears to be the result of plugging in every display device you've ever owned simultaneously—probably after a driver update or unplugging the wrong HDMI cable. The best part? Monitor 11 is highlighted and positioned vertically like it's trying to escape this chaos. Someone's definitely running a setup that involves at least three different GPU outputs, two USB-C adapters that barely work, and one monitor that only turns on if you sacrifice a chicken to the display gods. The "Identify" button at the bottom is doing some heavy lifting here, because good luck figuring out which physical screen corresponds to number 7 without a PhD in spatial reasoning. Fun fact: Windows has supported up to 10 displays since Windows 7, but just because you *can* doesn't mean you *should*. This setup probably requires more cable management than a data center and draws enough power to dim the neighborhood lights.

Content stackoverflow Questions git rebase: "error: cannot stat 'file': Permission denied" 91 13 I'm using git, and made a small commit followed by a large one. I decided to use git rebase to squash the two commits together before pushing them. (I've never done this before.) So l did: git rebase - i HEAD-2 This gave me my editor, where I chose to pick the earlier commit and squash the later one. When I saved, git said: error: cannot stat 'filename': Permission denied Could not apply sha1 for later commit... initial line of text for that commit Now: Neither commit appears when I do git log. git status tells me I'm "Not currently on any branch." One file is listed as modified and in the index, and two files are listed as untracked. My first commit had just one file (I think), and my second commit had a good dozen. What happened!? How do I fix it? gIt I git-rebase share edit close flag asked May 11 '11 at 21:33 Kyraless: 116k 26 137 183 Are you, by and chance, using git on windows? - Charles Bailey May 11 '11 at 21:35 Yes.
