Do you have codenames for your builds / versions? I usually don't but could resist naming release 1.0.737.0 "Boeing"

You forgot: 1.0.380.0 "Airbus"
btw... what a nice plane, specially the upper deck (and its bar)
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Yeah - well when it tries to land or take off it will often find an out-of-runway error.

Susie. Actually I call most of my projects Susie.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

But are you talking about projects, or things that project?

You will know when you hear me curse like a marine, probably because Susie is a little confused.

In that case, would version 1.0.1.0 be AirForceOne or TrumpTwo?

Yes. Every release we do for the website that drives my teams processes is named after a vodka. The next release, Rachmaninoff.

Yes, and we name them after famous and not so famous Bond villains.
Just kidding, we are not that pretentious. Anyhow, it would be cool to tell people that I am working on the Goldfinger project....but then they might think I was in the pron industry instead.

My projects all start with code names, and I use US Military Aircraft names - Falcon, Eagle, Blackhawk, etc
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

I name them after that TV show where they battle aliens on earth,
You know, V 1.0, V 2.1, &etc.

I worked at a place where all the project managers used code names and everyone else used the actual product name and release version. Where it got even more confusing is that the project managers would assign code names to sub-projects which overlapped their other code names, which would sometimes change if they drifted out-of-sync "too much" with the parent project.
The end result was sometimes quite comical:
Dev at standup: I'm working on X.
PM: No, you're working on Y.
Lead: What's Y?
PM: X, but for D instead of C.
Everyone: What's D?
PM: The name for 1.24.1
And on and on....

Due to the way my product management works, my software tends to have many small iterations. Coming up with codenames for those would put an ununderestimatable load on the programmer.

i have had to start using a logarithmic numbering system.
it used to be prime numbers, but had too many complaints from colleagues that they could not figure out the next version number after 13.

Just a side note on the 737... I don't think there is anything quite as remarkable as how a French pilot can make one of those birds climb taking off out of Paris! Truly an experience that I will never forget!

Not officially, but sometimes something interesting crops up. Lately we've been working on a 3.2.1 patch of a product. So we're calling it the 'Ted Rogers' patch.

Hi All,
With the sudden ammount of time on my hands, I thought I would investigate drive Z: which appeared on my parents Win10 box some time ago, like any faiely savvy user "this is odd", I though, "lets use google to look it up", which I did, it appear to be a virtual swap drive that was created during install, open up Disk Manager squash it get 39MB back fine. I just the used the Admin account to update permissions for something find a refernce to Z Drive in File Explorer grayed out with a dirty great question mark. So open Disk Manager nothing there, go back to user account Z: isn't there in Disk Manager not there. So I am confused, if it's deleted should the icon just disappear or has it reappeared due to some strange issues and has no size as an installer had a need to see a Z: not use it?  .
