That feeling when, after >20h of work put into a solution with a rather complex schema, it suddenly dawns on you that your client got a few relationships all wrong, explains it to you again one more time how it really should be set up, and then ends with an almost whisper-like “sorry about that”. Oh yes: that feeling.
(Conclusion re: previous paragraph: always, always ask follow-up questions no matter how stupid they might seem. I rather do a few extra “what if” questions than have things brushed off like they’re not really relevant. Because if it’s going to be included as part of the schema, it is relevant.)
I do think I lost most of my trust in have been skeptic towards news media for a long time. Despite obvious efforts like the app from SVT Nyheter that came out earlier this year, the technical know-how takes second stage when the whole thing is riddled with spelling mistakes on a daily basis (even headlines!) – and here I was thinking that any basic word processor would underline any misspelled word in red. Seems like I was sadly mistaken. If “journalists” don’t seem to care shit about spelling, why should I trust them?
Realized the other day that I haven’t done any traditional TV viewing since some time early spring; it’s all iTunes subscriptions through my Apple TV or online content (either live streamed or downloaded) on the iPad. Give me an all I can eat streaming television service already.
