@matigo I probably wouldn't survive in the work culture there. I hate suits, which seems to be the only acceptable clothing choice over there. That seems to be the case also here in big corporations like the one I am currently providing consulting for.
A fucking overenthusiastic twat wanted to check my badge when I entered the customer premises. He even interrupted his discussion with another person. Also, he complained that the badge should be hanging around my neck (as the instructions say!) because I happened to have it in my hand after having entered the premises through a locked door that requires me to use the badge to unlock it.
Seriously, this is how we treat grown-up people? No wonder this world is such a shitty place to live in if one cannot trust another person to use their common sense. Fucking annoying.
What a view to a kill…
I meant to take a photo like this already on Wednesday (for obvious reasons), but I forgot to have my phone ready.
Just in case you are interested, if you minimize your Android app (that is, minifyEnabled is set to true), you need to keep the (model) classes you parse from JSON using Gson in the app's ProGuard rules (that is, -keep class foo.bar.classpath.** {*;}). Apparently nobody minimizes their apps because this isn't mentioned anywhere in Gson's documentation.
Ho hum. Got bitten by yet another undocumented "feature" of Android+Gson combo. Apparently Google assumes that one just needs to know these things in advance to get them work.
@kdfrawg Not my original, though. I think @streakmachine knows the joke from where I got that.
@tomas Something like that. I got that from a joke where the phrase (of a poem, I'd assume) "island, island, grassy island, grassy island's bride" was asked to be translated to different languages. That is what it would be in Swedish.
