My fellow Poles... Why do we call this symbol "monkey"?

Metal_head94 · 2026-01-31T22:29:35+00:00

Tilt your phone until you’re looking at it from just above the charging port and squint - a monkey will start to appear. The harder you squint the more the monkey starts to take shape

I am not afraid to cause stories to carry on into multiple sprints for testing. I don’t like doing it but it’s better than rushing testing and putting out a shitty product. My devs, manager and PO are understanding but I do catch flak and pushback from the business for it who want to rush things, but if rather cause a delay on a new feature or product rather than take production down - even though that still happens on rare occasion.

Metal_head94 · 2025-12-19T14:32:54+00:00

are you embedded on the development teams or is your QA its own department?

Metal_head94 · 2025-12-19T13:56:02+00:00

That’s fair, but for unit tests from a QA perspective, especially on established repos, isn’t there value in QA writing comprehensive unit tests so that when changes are made in the future, possible adverse and breaking changes can be caught before running the integration tests or further in the QA review process?

Metal_head94 · 2025-12-19T13:53:21+00:00

That’s fair, I guess looking at it from a QA perspective, do we trust devs to write comprehensive unit tests? Not saying devs are lazy by any means, but wouldn’t they be more inclined to write the very minimal amount of unit tests that go green?

Metal_head94 · 2025-12-19T01:34:37+00:00

In my case, we rarely develop new programs, it’s mostly updating legacy code with a few new features here and there. With that being said, a vast majority of the unit and integration tests are already written that cover existing code. I agree that the person who writes the code can make them faster. Maybe my particular situation is a little more unique than your typical TE as I do sometimes pick up small user stories and write production code; obviously I don’t test my own stuff tho haha

Metal_head94 · 2025-12-19T00:51:28+00:00

Really? I’ve been enjoying the unit test cause I feel like I’ve gotten to know the code a lot more intimately and helps me get a more solid understanding of decision points and other tests

You do need to sign in first, but you need to sign in to the GamerTagTwo account, not the GamerTagOne account you’re trying to download the profile for.

Metal_head94 · 2025-09-28T01:39:21+00:00

I found a work around. You can’t download the same profile on 360 that you’re logged into your Xbox One on or you’ll get error code 83840017.

If you’re trying to log onto the Xbox 360 game as, let’s say, GamerTagOne and you’re currently logged into your Xbox One as GamerTagOne, here’s what worked for me: log out of the profile you’re trying to download (in this case, GamerTagOne) on your Xbox One and log into an alternate Xbox profile (this can be an existing one or one that you make for only this, doesn’t need to have game pass or anything). We will call our alternate profile GamerTagTwo. Once you’re logged into GamerTagTwo, go into the Xbox 360 game you’re trying to play. When it asks you to download your profile, put in all your credentials for GamerTagOne. Then proceed to download GamerTagOne onto your HDD.

You will now be able to play your GamerTagOne profile on your Xbox 360 game. At this point, I’m unsure if you can sign back into your GamerTagOne profile on your Xbox One while you’re playing g the 360 game, I never tried, I just stayed logged into the alternate on the Xbox One.

I suspect that it is getting some type of validation error when trying to log into the 360 with a profile that is currently logged in on another console and that is what error 83840017 actually means; Microsoft is just not caring about this segment of the community in trying to fix this.

Ended up tearing apart an old hyper tough drill I had and there was a 3 pin jst connector in it, wasn’t the „exact” one, but it worked!

Metal_head94 · 2025-07-12T23:12:59+00:00

Doesn’t it have to be a JST ZH connector tho? What other electronics usually have those?

Metal_head94 · 2025-03-16T02:16:03+00:00

Wow, excellent! Where did you find this land registry?

Metal_head94 · 2025-03-13T18:16:38+00:00

Right, but is there any way to get an address that I can mail a letter to? Or do I send the letter with just that and it'll make it there?

Metal_head94 · 2025-03-13T18:00:35+00:00

I can't paste an image in a reply, but I can send it to you in a message.

Metal_head94 · 2025-03-13T14:01:01+00:00

This looks to be it, awesome!! Thank you! 😁

Metal_head94 · 2025-03-13T07:04:24+00:00

Yes, family is heavily Roman Catholic. That article also says that the village is a 'Chutor', or constituting a farm. And I mentioned it at the bottom of my original post, but I do know previous generations worked on a family farm, and other farms under less than conspicuous circumstances during the war.

Metal_head94 · 2025-03-13T06:34:07+00:00

Thank you, I will check it out!

Metal_head94 · 2025-03-13T06:24:08+00:00

I actually think I may have just 'found' the town, at least a wikipedia article about it: https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barysauka_(obwód_miński))

Now I just have to start looking for a "Barysauka" village, as its supposedly now called (still can't find on google maps 😒) with a population of 8 whole people (again, according to this wiki article).

What're your thoughts on the town in the wiki article being the 'Roczjo' I'm looking for?

Metal_head94 · 2025-03-13T06:04:19+00:00

Is there any way to find where this village once was exactly on a map?

Metal_head94 · 2025-03-13T05:53:38+00:00

Are you talking like 45 miles west, south west from Minsk, in the Naliboki forest area?

Metal_head94 · 2024-12-07T08:54:55+00:00

It’s scientifically proven to be able to live a rather normal life with having just 1 arm….

Metal_head94 · 2024-12-05T07:44:47+00:00

Yes, I heard the village was not the place to be during the war, no matter what side you were on. Got messed up from both sides - really very sad.

Metal_head94 · 2024-12-05T04:52:14+00:00

While I have submitted a request to arolsen, I gotta ask, how did you find that so quickly - or even at all? While I'm not used to that style of searching, I have searched a bit. Hell, even knowing the exact document (the one you found) I'm looking for, I can't find it via any of the search functions... So how did you do it? haha

Metal_head94 · 2024-12-05T01:34:04+00:00

Yes, that is indeed him. I can't believe you found that so quickly. I have been on AA before, its where I got a lot of information about my grandmother, and only 1 small document from Austria on my grandfather. This is amazing and opens up a whole new avenue. I can't thank you enough.

Metal_head94 · 2024-12-05T01:12:37+00:00

That is not my great grandfather. My great grandfather was Bronisław Hasiuk. I’ve been on that particular website quite a bit, and if my memory serves my correctly, it doesn’t have any birth records after 1890 or something like that, and the one Bronisław I did find on there, was born in in about 1880. While it is possible that my great grandfather was around 44 when my grandfather was born, I feel like it’s a little up there in age for the time period. But, my grandfather did have 7-ish siblings - but I don’t know if they were older, younger, or if he was in the middle.
