Almost perfect dialog...except the last line...
(and 18 years ago a was pretty fresh)

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Oh, the last line was just my way of saying "GOTO start"

I've been forced to use that format when writing for older Oracle systems.
So, it may not be the language that is/was the issue, it may be the data source.
The implication being.. such a join may be seen in other languages like C, C#, etc.

I recently encountered ( +) in an Oracle query.
It's the same thing, except this query was written a week earlier... 
I had never seen that syntax by the way, not in Oracle or SQL Server

The *= syntax is Sybase, SQL Server until 2000 and Access

I never did that myself, even though it seemed to be all the rage.
But it's normal for common coding conventions to be superseded by others (most of which are not genuinely better; just different), and for the superseded conventions to be reviled.
It's a "The Winner Writes the History Books" thing.

Quote: e.TerminalType *= f.TerminalType
Isn't that just e.TerminalType = e.TerminalType * f.TerminalType ?

In code, yes. In SQL that's an old-style JOIN syntax.

We have a story (Gah! I hate Agile terminology.) to remove all those from our codebase. There are enough to make that a 2 sprint story.

Hi All,
Still in new job mode, after some early success with the Hardware issues I have now been given the issue of the software bug that is halting work on a new product. I can after a mornings worth of installs confirm the software works on the demo board.  Now to run it on the board and see what is missing and why it does not work  It's gonna be a three ![Java | [Coffee]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/coffee.gif) job at least, possibly a ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif) job too.

If it's not broken, fix it until it is.

What's so funny about that? I'm building a little computer of this[^] sort. Guess what the row of eight switches at the bottom is for.
Personally I prefer hexadecimal[^] over binary input.
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.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

Hex is for people that wear sandals (can count toes when fingers no enough),
octal though still fits in the hands...
but above both limited to 1 digit.
In binary, can use fingers to count up to 255... include the thumbs and it's 1023.
Sin tack ear lol
Pressing the "Any" key may be continuate

Forget the sandals. With graphics like this[^] the little computer taught me to convert binary to hex long ago.

At university that's how we learned assembler. We wrote it on paper, converted it to hex then input the hex directly into memory via the switches. Can't get any lower a level of programming than that!

I know. Over the weekend I worked on a BIOS/diagnostic for the little computer I'm building. That's how I began and still prefer to work.
