Its gameplay is similar to Vampire Survivors. I actually prefer it because it has more characters, upgrades and synergies.

I think it means the electric field created within Earth’s atmosphere that is responsible for lightning as opposed to the (electro)magnetic field which forms the magnetosphere around Earth and makes compasses work.

Completely agree, requirements are key and often badly defined due to the customers’ lack of knowledge of the intricacies of the system. You are correct to ask for clarity or it could come back to bite you later on.

I’ve just had a spec through from a BA which consists entirely of screenshots of an existing system with no technical definitition of any of the requested fields so relate to this right now.

Not substantially, it had a different title and was toned down.

I withdraw the word essay and apologise for any rudeness.

Have a good one.

My original message was “Wow ok chill.” then elaborated to clarify.

Where I’m from people are way ruder than anything I said here so perhaps I misjudged the room. However, calling it out seems to have had the desired response as since posting OP went and apologised for his anger.

I in turn apologise for my rudeness to them.

Did you read it before the edits? If it’s written like that I think I’m entitled to exaggerate back slightly to make a point by calling it a rage essay.

Anywho I wouldn’t choose to rant like this to my coworkers or online. A quick 🤦 in chat usually does the trick.

Completely put to task, yep really got me there. I will never see the world in the same way again.

Also, I don’t think you understand what irony means.

You too.

Wow ok chill.

The title of this post was “I hate programming, why did I choose this field”.

I responded suggesting maybe OP isn’t suited to SQL in particular. There are plenty of other languages to learn that they might pick up quicker if they are struggling with SELECTs.

It’s partially right but led OP down the wrong lines of thinking because it interpreted the prompt as a date field being missing rather than the field named date being missing.

Tbh I don’t blame it too much here as there is kind of a base level of understanding requred to use it successfully.

Ah yes here you are successfully ignoring it.

Might not be encouraging it but you seem to be defending it.

It made an incorrect inference, imagine how wrong it is on more complex questions.

There’s a difference between ranting to your coworkers at lunch about a stupid mistake and typing out a full rage essay.

Imagine the state of the sub if we all did that… Wait…

Fair play. SQL is pretty different from traditional programming and errors often aren’t very descriptive.

You’ll need to get very familiar with fields you have included or not in your queries when using more advanced stuff like group functions as including or excluding them can alter the number of rows returned.

Perhaps, but we don’t know and therein lies the problem.

You are correct I don’t know the circumstances so all we can go on is what OP wrote…

Yes of course, but it’s not the sort of thing I’d make a rant post criticising the entirety of programming about.

It’s like going to a mathematics forum and declaring “Guyz I forgot to carry a 1, screw Maths.”

Ah I see ChatGPT is being as accurate as ever making up a created_at field completely unprompted. They’ve already found the correct SQL:

SELECT task, status, id, date FROM mainWorkSpace WHERE user_id = @user_id

Although I would question the sense in calling a date field “date”.

You didn’t add the date field to your query and couldn’t work out why it didn’t return the missing field for over 2 hours?

Perhaps SQL isn’t for you as things get waaaaay more finicky than that.

Nah it’s just SFA with extra steps.

That’s why I mentioned those other console exclusive features. Anyway the original point was about cost and I think the Series X was the best value for money at launch this gen…

• Half the price of building a similar PC at launch.

• Rewards are higher on console so recoup the cost more than PC.

• I use Game Pass on both PC and Xbox with a single account to play multiplayer so cheaper on that front.

We’re half way through the generation now though. PC parts have got cheaper, Game Pass Ultimate conversion ratio has dropped and rewards are drying up so probably wouldn’t advocate it anymore. PC likely to be better value next gen.
