Conklin

It was a job that didn't work out. I was contracting on behalf of Robert Half and about half of the characters I interacted with were other Halflings. The company had a something like a pyramid scheme baked out for resellers nested beneath resellers and they had worked for three years building out an application around as much that they could never seem to take live. Embarrassing! I have the following pictures from my time there.

Dunning-Kruger is the opposite of imposture syndrome!

Check out the chart for overconfidence. I'm seen a fudged graph like this for Ballmer's Peak before. Don't ask me what ZME stands for. Also what's Wikimedia?

swatting

If you are doing this you are falsely reporting that someone is breaking the law or that someone else is in danger.

JavaScript in 2018 and 2019.

2018 gave us the spread operator and 2019 Object.fromEntries which reverses Object.entries allowing you to hand in key/value pairs to make an object.

the ECMAScript 2015 deconstruction

The proper way to use the ECMAScript 2015 deconstruction suggested here is:

for (let [key, value] of Object.entries(object1)) {
   console.log(`${key}: ${value}`);
}

lock keys

Num Lock	let's use the number values on the arrow keys
Caps Lock	let's type in all capital letters!
Scroll Lock	modify the arrow key behaviors with regards to scrolling

blocking versus deadlocks in T-SQL

This offers that if a resource is blocked by way of being used by one T-SQL statement, a different T-SQL statement will just wait until the resource is freed up. In deadlocks there is more than one resource to be had to do the thing for the two T-SQL requests and one T-SQL statement gets a deadlock on one thing while the other is thus routed to the other actor by default given what it cannot do.
