   I'd feel incredibly akward turning up to a works party and there's models there who were basically being paid to pretend they want to talk to me. It's just awful and sad.

   I'm in Europe, never had a delivery guy call me. Either I need to be home to get a delivery or I have to rely on them giving my parcel to the concierge. Which is often more of a hassle as he finishes at 5 and I'm often not home in

   I find most devs won't buy a tool like Reshaper, so if the company won't pay for it, they will never use it. I love resharper personally and have my own licence. I mean, I've seen WPF apps where everything was in app.xaml.cs

    It's a SQLSERVER, which at this point is about 200GB. Can I say just replicate the schema and then run a script to populate some test data. Or just move over a subset of the main DB? Got any good articles on how to setup test environme

    Yes, I understand it's a disaster waiting to happen. I mean if we want to edit a stored proc in the db, right click it in SSMS, script to modify, make the change, F5. Hope everything doesn't blow up. It's not ideal.

    I work remotely in a shared working space, but I'm the only person from my company there. I thought it would better than working from home, on my own all the time, but in a way it ends up worse. I'm in an office with a load of oth
