I hear you. My one client decided to have some co-op students develop some web apps this way, and I have been working through this, trying to get it all working so that it is at least minimally useful ever since...

My general rule of software development: "Design should be top-down, but implementation should be bottom-up."
So I agree that code-first is wrong, but I don't agree with your stated reasons. Of course, middle-first is even worse.
I have worked at only two places where there were proper DBAs who controlled the database and all the developers could do was ask for additions and changes, I couldn't make the changes myself. On all other jobs, including now, I have had full control of everything myself top-to-bottom and that's how I like it.

Yes.
I once went out with a nurse from an eye hospital who had a squint.
She was quite delightful.

I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

OK someone's got to ask. What was her other leg called?

I don't know, but one day there was a knock on the door. She went to answer it then came into the room.
"There's a man at the door with a funny face!" she said
"Tell him you've already got one." I responded.

Yes, I've used it before to edit the msi property table to disable self-repairing shortcuts which where interfering with our updater process. But that can also be done via command line scripts as part of the build process. It's interesting to see whats going on inside the msi.
We have now switched to Inno Setup. Much simpler and allows lots of customization.

Bronx Zoo has Name A Cockroach Program[^] for hopeless romantics.

Memories of Rose Tree Cottage, Gibraltar.
Fantastic house, but totally infested with cockroaches. We lived there for well over a year, but found no reliable measures to get rid of the "other residents".
I've still got vivid images in my memory of their nesting places, as we found them.
So no, I will not pay to name one. There is no-one I hate so much as to give their name to one of those awful creatures.

"Honey, I named a cockroach after you" sounds really romantic for sure. I guess the mortuaries don't have enough work around valentine's day.

Someone sent me a linked in request, and I think it's a code project member that helped me a couple of years ago, and just wanted to check, to satisfy my curiosity.

You could try this[^] link for starters, although it may be difficult to find your friend if they're using a psuedonym at CP.

For a number of members, they may be most easily found by seeking their photograph on a post-office wall.

You don't wear bright red lipstick when you look at these photos, do you?

No - silly.
I'm the one with the black lipstick to match my nails and scarf.
I'll let it go at that since everyone knows that fashion sense (red lipstick) is different for stalkers, so you didn't know any better.

They still do that?
Haven't been to the post office in a while.
Then I can get their alias as well, and then look them up

There is no direct way: your log in is your email, and the hamsters aren't going to give those out - thankfully - so there is no way to search for a user by login. Which just leaves the username, and that doesn't have to bear any relationship to the email address or "real world" name you already have. You could check back in your history if you know roughly when they helped you?

That's a good idea. Wonder if the history goes that far back.
OK, I'll just go along with my first thought of them being a member here, and accept the connection.
