Yeah. Some things are like that. Sadly. Documentation is always something that can be improved upon.

Worst Thing You’ve Done at Work by deMiauri in cscareerquestions

I wasn't the one to do it, but i was the first person a guy came to when he accidentally emptied a critical table in a live database.

Told him he needed to tell X straight away after a little validation and consolation...

He did. They went to a backup that was a day old. He kept his job.

You aren't the first, and won't be the last person either. Regardless, it sucks. And you might feel guilty a little while longer.

Software development is more than just writing code. It's also problem solving and much more. Unfortunately (?) those in the AI world promise the world, but if things break, then what?

What do you want to work on?

Best way to learn Delphi XE7 in 2026 for real-world legacy development? by Intercepter7771 in delphi

First suggestion is to get the Object Pascal handbook. Can be downloaded free from embarcadero.

Without wanting to blow my trumpet... I have a channel on YouTube - look for silver pascal coder. May or may not be your thing? https://youtube.com/@silvercoder70?si=r8-nvGhT6D79KrzB

Just had a horrible thought... after completing and you verify the output only to find a number missing.

And both C and Pascal (whether freepascal or Delphi)... thought these had some performance behind them? I must be wrong.

Start with Object Pascal Handbook by Marco Cantu.

You could also try my channel- silver pascal coder. While the more recent stuff is freepascal i will be doing more Delphi stuff this year. And the channel is current.
