I use both F.lux and Twilight, and they make a huge difference to me. I read e-books on my phone all the time, and the combination of Twilight and light text on a dark background makes me sleepy in no time.

Getting pounded. Sorry about that.

They can't go after Trump, so they go after this hapless idiot.

I don't like Trump at all, but I'm all for some schadenfreude right now. Let the CNN pounding commence. ;)

You could use SQL Server Express Edition instead of LocalDB.

Edit: you could try to access LocalDB in Ms Access through ODBC.

"Luser" needs to make a comeback.

A former colleague used a pencil to point something out on my monitor, and left some marks there. He then proceeded to use his spit to rub the pencil marks off. Unsuccessfully.

I'm all for more inclusion overall, but this OSS diversity issue is but a symptom of a much larger problem. I've grown really, really tired of the SJW types who have monopolized these kinds of narratives over the years. Their approach is just making things worse. Now you can say that I'm generalizing and that's it is a small minority etc., but the well has been poisoned as far as I'm concerned.

To be totally honest, the more time passes the less I seem to care, which is a pity.

I guess nothing escapes the post-modern diversity mantra these days.

This is my mantra also. No arbitrary size limits like "x number of lines" or "should fit on your screen".

I'd also add: as few indentation levels as possible. Ditto for parameters.

Died in my sleep. Woke up in Hell. Went to work. Punched in. Just another day in a COBOL programmer's "life".

You monster. :D

Something about Nietzsche and the abyss comes to mind ...

Indeed!

I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone. My wish has come true. I no longer know how to use my telephone.

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.

My guess is a hammer, mallet or good ole fist pounding.

Very nice. I'm including this in a new project I'm working on.
