Well, not Qlikview, but the idiots that run the show here at work.
They want everyone to develop on a central server. Yesterday, at around 11:30am, this server dropped off the network, and since that time, everyone that does Qlikview work is sitting with their thumbs up their collective asses. Including yours truly.

Why would they need you to develop on a server?

I don't f*ckin know. It's simply another arbitrary and absurd requirement.

Sounds like a military/gov thing. I've worked both a few times and they do stupid Sh*t like that all the time.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

Update - I submitted a help-desk ticket 3.5 hours ago, and just got a reply:
"What is the port number connected to the computer?"
What a bunch of retards...
Me: "Ping the box, idiot, and you'll see that the requests time out. This means the box has been turned off or simply exploded, or the port on the switch its connected to has failed, or maybe the box is simply overwhelmed that Trump was elected and it doesn't know what to f*ckin do with itself. Whatever the reason, we are at a full work stoppage because someone, somewhere, isn't doing their f*ckin job."

When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others.
Same thing when you are stupid.

via Remote Desktop? Is this a DOD or NSA (or like org) project? Then it makes some obtuse sense, otherwise no.

Yes on DoD, but no, it's just a network share. The machine is just gone.

That's how some of the developers where I work told me to develop.  Luckily, I've managed to implement change.

Neurotech - The Elysian Symphony[^]
A new song from the new album of my #1 artist of 2016 
I learned about Neurotech right here on CP in the weekly SOTW post (when the S was still Song) and now Neurotech is coming back to you (for the second time I think)
The track is only 17 minutes, but it's 17 minutes of awesomeness

Jarre meets Sirenia, I like that!
It does have both the synths and metal parts (putting An Elixer For Existence in my playlist).
I don't know those Vangelis songs, but I'm currently listening to the Direct album on Spotify. His soundtracks are awesome too.
I'll give Revolutions a listen too. I've listened to Equinoxe a lot in the past.

I'm just curious.
Chrome Apps / Extensions
Do you install Chrome apps / extensions? Often? Seldom? Never?
Do you see them as a security risk?
Have you had any great experiences with Chrome extensions? Any terrible ones?
I'm just curious about how often they are used.
Considering converting my C'YaPass app (see browser single page app[^]) to a Chrome extension and wondering if anyone would even install it or use it that way or if they'd rather get the native apps or use web browser version.
Chrome Extension Devs?
Have any of you developed any Chrome extensions?
If so, would you point me to them in the Chrome extension store (a link)?

I'm using Keepass; small standalone application that can be stored on USB, and run it with a bare-bones browser in a separate and limited desktop[^].

I'm not going to store all my passwords with a third party that I do not know. Sounds too fishy to me.

They don't get stored in a third party.
They are not stored anywhere.
They are generated every time.
The app generates a SHA256 hash of which is salted with the value from the geomtric drawing that only ou know. You can draw your password. That's why it works in a browser. There is no storage. It only stores the site/key in your localStorage. That's for the user's convenience of not having to type it again. And the user can delete it if she wants.
Nothing is ever sent across the web.
I totally understand your concern though.
Thanks for asking.

I only use 2, 3 extensions depending on how "wild" I am.
mostly use the ad-blocker one and a RSS news feeder; none are really security issue (AFAIK)
I'd rather be phishing!

Thanks for chiming in.

Shameless plug.

 I honestly didn't mean it that way. I know some people will feel that way though.
I've written and released the app as an Android app, iPhone/iPad app, HTML5 app and a win forms app.
I've actually also written it as a UWP also but haven't released it yet.
I'm just wondering if people use chrome extensions or if they are "old school" now.
Thanks.

Thanks. I figured you were, because you didn't mark my original message as spam.
