basically any language used to write medical software has to be garbage. I think there is some kind of rule

jit bull transpile posted:Noice. I used to support meditech in my help desk jockey days and it seemed like trash. Also I love how y'all use a language forked from mumps that has somehow become even more terse and indecipherable than the source language. i will teach you the ways of ~MAGIC~ if you can teach me how to escape this place. MAGIC $T is the one that is kind of like mumps, everything is a B tree. there is also magic fs which is terrible in completely different ways. Here is something in $t that will print the fibonacci numbers under 10000. Note the left to right assignment using a ^, which looks like a little arrow in a magic terminal. # is a "prefix", which just outputs things to the terminal. 0^X,1^Y,D(13,10)^#,DO{X<10000 X^Z_D(13,10)^#,X+Y^X,Z^Y} edit: the D(13,10) are just cr-lfs i put in there so that it would print out real pretty.

mystes posted:"X^Z_D(13,10)^#" is like yeah _ is the concat operator and the ^ assignment operator can both be chained so if you did 1_2^A^B^C, all A,B and C would be 12. Also the language is what I would call militantly untyped. there is no real distinction at all between strings and numbers and you get hilarious behavior if you multiply 3 * "hello" or something like that. anthonypants posted:no it's MAGIC, like they said the comments on this one are pretty great. Fiedler posted:do you know any non-moon languages? if yes, apply to literally every job listing that mentions that language. else, learn a non-moon language. I know javascript and react pretty well. im pretty much a full stack dev, but all my back end knowledge is completely worthless. I get a lot of recruiter spam for web dev jobs, but I really am not great on the css/design side of things.

MALE SHOEGAZE posted:how much has your thing been optimized and how much was the other thing optimized? oh yeah the old one is definitely more optimized. someone in another group ran some tests on it and now my director is all worried. what is funny is that i brought the same thing up a couple months ago and it just got hand waved away. oh well

MrMoo posted:Did it take 2 years to realise the performance difference? well we have been building it while supporting the existing system. really with the new one we are at the point of making it work vs making it fast. of course now someone has seen the word “slower” so it should be an entertaining couple weeks

Me: hey vendor how do i get a token to access your api? Vendor: here you go, you can use this token 'xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxxxx' Me: did you just email me a token? how are other users supposed to get tokens? when does this expire? Vendor: thats that best part, the token never expires! and you can just share it with your buddies if they need to access the api. isn't that great?
