I meant VM - just had a word with the Linux guru of the firm, I initialised it with wrong ident ? or to put into English I didn't right click where I should have. Why does Linux use so many words...

I use a Linux VM to send serial data (via, for instance, USB->TTL converters) almost every day. You just need proper rights to access the serial port.

wow, just wow, might move this to rant, But seriously. New changes are in DEV and Training Areas. Boss wants it moved to prod right now. Ok, It has been thru QA on both environments weeks ago. It is good to go. All Documentation is in order everything is ready. Looking in TFS for changes from Developer 1 (D1) D1 has not checked in their code? what the elephant?
Discussion with D1. Oh I always do that. I never check in until after it is in production. That way I can roll back easier. I don't have to even think about things? huh? What? head shake.
So you are meaning to tell me you haven't for years checked in your code and because you were 'out' yesterday afternoon they boss gets to be told that no one else can do this because we don't know where you put the code? Have a nice conversation with the boss about that one.
I almost feel sorry for D1.

Wow, that sucks. Although, I don't know if I'd blame D1 or the lead/manager. When I've played at lead/manager, in the past, I wouldn't let D1 reach that point. To me, sounds like either D1 doesn't have enough training, to know how to use TFS properly, or the team's approach to source code management is a bit too laissez faire.

I don't understand  if he hasn't checked in his code how can it have been deployed to other environments?
|
|
|
|

because we all have direct access to DEV and Training. and on occasion and in certain circumstances prod.

The fundamental problem here is the fact that you are deploying to dev/training directly from dev machines, instead of from source control. The process is broken, and this developer's approach is just one of its symptoms.

That must be one sparse check-in history (well, his). Nobody ever noticed that until now?

mgmt being what it is........ lots to say. Going to practice shutting up for a bit.

TBH, I have to think "shutting up" might be part of the problem.

It probably is most of the problem. But hey I like getting a paycheck. Soooo

Bing is a search engine? 
Are you sure?

Well, a cryptic clue should be at least a little bit cryptic. Added to which "duckduckgo" just wouldn't have fitted the clue ...
Then again, search engine -> Bing is maybe one level of indirection, too far.

If you want to alert someone specifically, you can use an "atsign" code: Go to the member page, and in the top left is the code you need. For PeeJayAdams, it's @User-10476399
Enter that in your message, and he is sent an email, like you are for this: @johnwong6

You forgot to tell him about putting the code into the signature. 
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
