11 is missing the hour hand in the miniatures.

When I started working in the late 90s early 00s, every company had their own It-department. These days it’s just some consultant or subscription to another company offering their consultants to do specific tasks.

This thread reminds me of why having an IT department makes good sense financially - today.

You can add up all the salaries, equipment and training costs and it’ll still be cheaper than wasting time and money in meetings with consultants trying to either explain the task or moan about pricing.

Shit doesn’t work, because they aren’t paid to make shit work.

I can make code that works for me and I can make code that works for you. The price is different, but you also need to know what you actually want it to do, and I don’t know how much money you are willing to sacrifice for us both fumbling around in that equation.

Honestly… clean code can be hard to read. It’s sometimes easier to recognise certain parts in shitty code because it has a more distinctive appearance.

Name the cell “myPi” and use that instead of the Pi function.

Can’t you just type in the digits of the Pi that you want to use in some cell and then refer to that cell instead of using the default Pi?

5 is mathematically a “round-up” number. If you want your numbers to behave differently I think you’d be better off using a different function.

I’d like that to be an acceptable autoreply to all the mails from my boss.

If only you’d done the most bloated and well documented function first, you could have saved yourself the time and your client for the money.

I mean this is the kind of shit my boss would argue about. Why pay for the first attempts that didn’t work… blabla bla. He always ends up paying but it’s always such a hassle.

And then your customer changes their mind. Instead of two numbers, they will now input three numbers. How easy will it be for you to change your code?

And then the customer changes their mind. Instead of three numbers, they will now input any series of numbers. How easy will it be for you to change your code? And why didn’t you already do this is the previous step?

And then the customer changes their mind. Instead of any set of numbers, they will now input numbers and text. How easy will it be to change your code?

And then the customer changes their mind. They now have no idea of what they’re sending you or if they’re even sending you anything. Nevermind the code now, you already did that in the previous step, right? How easy will it be to explain what you’re invoicing them for?

All apps require some customization for my preference. Once I’m done with customizing, there’s hardly any difference between apps. I’m currently using Connect, because it’s very customizable. I like the list view and the option not to preload pictures to save on data.

Voyager is also pretty good, but the webapp seemed to conflict with my browser. Maybe that’s fixed in the native app.

I don’t understand why anyone likes card view at all. It’s pretty much the reason why I was locked to using a third party app for Reddit in the first place when they “updated” the site back in 2018.

Just use a Chromecast. You can use it from every device (phone/laptop/tablets) on the same WiFi.
