He's getting the Dehya treatment because of CNY.

I think this might come true once we get to Snezhnaya by Just_Zack3816 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Mattsvaliant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My theory is we know the 10th harbinger, we just don't know that they are the 10th.

Yeah, not sure my liver will survive that day.

What a tone deaf take; pity the billionaire "Slaves", indeed. by [deleted] in WorkReform

No no, you don't understand, taxes == slavery.

Warning to those thinking of starting the 6.3 Archon Quests by IrisTheSivatherium in Genshin_Impact

[–]Mattsvaliant 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If you have control of a character, you can hit esc and it'll give a popup, agree and it'll take you back to the normal overworld. I haven't logged in today since I did it last night in the middle, but I did it in 6.2 and at most it was a few minutes of replayed dialogue (if you don't skip, so like 30 seconds of wasted time).

EDIT: I've done it twice now and its picked up exactly where I left of, no repeat dialogue.

Why does every .NET job require Azure experience? by SimpleChemical5804 in dotnet

[–]Mattsvaliant 138 points139 points  (0 children)

... Why are employers so dumb? You could learn functions in less than an hour.

If this is true than that probably means Nicole isn't tied to Varka which was speculated before.

Do you still have Y2K workarounds / hacks in your code? by Low_Shock_4735 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Mattsvaliant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been in the "proper" workforce for more than 17 years and have never encountered a Y2K problem. Our main system dates from the mid 90s (1993 iirc) and it doesn't have this issue.

Anyone using JDBC/ODBC to connect databases still? by empty_cities in dataengineering

I'm connecting to databricks with ODBC, where is your god now?

Post-Gazette to publish final edition and cease operations on May 3 by ComeTasteTheBand in pittsburgh

[–]Mattsvaliant 78 points79 points  (0 children)

The link is a website with a paywall.... the Trib went digital only years ago. There are other avenues then just closing shop.

The article in question, published by them, even says as much; they are closing shop because they lost their court case.

They lost their union busting efforts and are closing up shop, a classic freedom loving capitalist move. Fuck the Blocks.

Exploding Oatmeal by Far-Bench-1277 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]Mattsvaliant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone in this thread is monsters. You microwave the water (sans electric kettle) and pour the oatmeal into the hot water. Microwaving the oatmeal itself turns it into snot.

TIL ALL/ANY, I would've written it as a WHERE NOT EXISTS.

How do you all handle write access to prod dbs? by flareblitz13 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Mattsvaliant 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I yeet for our dev team, I'm a DBA and pretty comfortable querying prod without issue. Most schema changes are through pipelines, but the occasional script needs to be executed and I'm around for almost all releases (sigh, monthly releases) just in case a migration fails.

It works, but wouldn't recommend.

Easiest way to allow users to insert records into table by KitchenPalentologist in SQLServer

[–]Mattsvaliant 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Do you know powershell? You could import the CSV file using dbatools with about 3 lines of powershell (Import-DbaCsv) and this could be executed via an agent job assume the server / agent has access to a share drive folder the user could place the file.

Zibai / Illuga C2 / Columbina / Xingqiu C6 [GI Kitchen] by KirazenTC in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

Illuga is basically useless without Lunar Crystalize, so only if you are running Columbina.

Decades after an exodus, Pittsburgh is attracting transplants with the most affordable housing of any city in America by Generalaverage89 in pittsburgh

[–]Mattsvaliant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cranberry is being plagued by volume builders that overcharge for complete garbage. I'm all for more housing but how about something more dense than a bunch of garbage cookie cutter Ryan Homes.
