Ohai, @ronnie! waves
@c Indeed. I guess they run out of ideas of how to ruin John McClane's holidays…
Huh. Hadn't realized that we had not seen the sequel to the ultimate christmas movie. Well, we "fixed" that tonight. Oh, and we also didn't know that it was directed by Renny Harlin. We did know that he directed the third movie in the series, though.
@morrick No problem. I always assume a conversation that does not happen face to face to be asynchronous. Also, I know that people have other life outside this small bubble, which can cause the replies get delayed. Speaking of which, I should do one thing I promised to do in January… ?
@matigo And all those web view apps have been designed very poorly, they eat up all the RAM the machine has and they shit in their pants when the network connection either is flaky or changes.
@larand Or French. I've been looking my wife to study (or more precisely, revise and extend her skills in) that weird language this winter and I have found the reason why all French people are so rude. With a language like that there's no way they can understand each other at all.

@kdfrawg I can live with a releasable version that may need some tweaking still, which is what happened when I left my previous job. This project ended pretty much in a similar state.
@c Ah, the classic…
I guess the person who worked on this project before me (and our company) didn't know of that. There were a lot of dragons I had to slay…
