Monday will be even quieter, it's "All American Get Drunk And Shoot Up The Neighborhood* Day"
* Maybe bullets, maybe fireworks, probably both - depends on where in the US you are.

You just don't wait long enough for this side of the pond to get our coffee so we can think

I assumed you'd all make it a long weekend with monday off - it was so quiet round here, you could hear a mozzie fart ...

I didn't post as I've done one this week
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

Fellini Félin - Fiore & I[^]
A bit of a unique SOTW this week... In that I don't even like it all that much myself 
It's a poppy song that's not hard to listen to, but the singer sounds a bit whiny for my tastes.
However, the second half is so catchy I just have to listen to it again... And again, and again, and again...
Humming and whistling along to it, I dare you not to 
I found it while Spotify was just playing random songs while working late one evening.
Can't find much about Fellini Félin.
I think it's just one guy from France.
So far he's released a couple of singles and EPs.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to listen to it again

Didn't mind it, nice background music when having dinner with friends.

I thought initial startup took a while,but it's only because our solution here at work has.. ahem... 1500 projects...
But out of curiosity I opened my own home take over the world project solution (which has been on hold for quite a while..   ) anyway, even this small solution with only 30 projects took some time to initialize / load / startup.. Damn!

I'm on the latest version but hadn't noticed any difference. It might well depend on what your solution contains. Mine is just C++, though I open it from a folder, after which VS2022 has to interpret the CMake files and do its Intellisense thing. But releasing something with a significant performance degradation is very naughty. Our customers used to scream murder if a release slowed down by more than 2%, and there were only 2 releases a year.
|

To be fair this is the time before (both) intelisense is fully working and VS can start building. One can still edit files immediately.
But yeah.. this is unacceptable!

The trick is to give them something that is 50% slower. Let them scream for a few days (to make sure all their users have felt the pain), then release a fix (i.e. take out the thread.Sleep calls) that brings it back to 10% slower than the previous version. They will praise you for the quick fix.

I've never had one solution with 30 projects in it, and I've worked on million dollar implementations.
I do not understand developers* development these days.
* in retrospect, developers probably haven't changed much.
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.

well.. it's a "big" everything solution....
it has 4 toy GUI testing apps, 1 Unit test project, 1 real app (take over the world home project), 1 custom GUI tool project (internationalisation helper app), 1 code generator project, 6 3rd party projects from GitHub (that I tweaked, mostly only for .NET6, except one that was outdated and buggy, but still very usefull), and finally 10 libraries (1 general utility, 1 general WPF utilities, 1 for a complicated control,. 1 for reflection on public GitHub all by itself, 2 complicated GUI Item on public GitHub, 3 for my take over the world project document and its UI).. plus a few unloaded iOS/Android project from the time I was working on those...
Hopefully that will give you some understanding!

Can't you find a skull-shaped island, or is finding the Bond girls holding you up?

I've worked in programming for over 40 years, man and boy. Mine eyes have espied many eldritch things. My mouth has swallowed many a draft of mind bleach.

Working at a large multinational software company (also known as Electronic Arts, yes that gaming super giant), there are many different contributing teams, across many years and time zones, building vastly different project that seemed like a good idea at the time, none of them that can be deleted!
