IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

It's certainly out of nowhere. Dude was cool with me for the past several years up until yesterday.

I've already been looking for a new job so I am not too concerned about any PIP shenanigans.

He may have not been. I had a similar discussion with a coworker (Director) recently. He had been procrastinating delivering poor performance news for quite a while with one of his team members. Remember. Bosses are humans and are flawed as well.

You guys have any sos (system of systems) you have to build out all the time? Ansible is great for that sort of thing.

Working in an open office/scrum setup you really get an idea of how shitty people are with their hours. I come in before 90% of our two teams cohabitating and leave after 90% of them. Every day.

On the flip side, I have observed plenty of people who work ridiculous numbers of hours and wear that as a badge of honor, yet ultimately produce no better than the nine-to-fiver who gets things done efficiently. Or course, all things being equal, someone working ten hour days will outproduce the same person putting in 7-8 hours, but I think the modern workplace has brainwashed a lot of employees into feeling way too much pride about how many hours they work, especially compared to others.

We have to account for every hour in 6 minute increments , so they're fudging time cards is my meaning

Ansible has been pretty great for scripting large scale changes and reporting on enterprise level number of systems (10,000+).

Time card fraud is pretty common and very easy to fire someone with cause if they get caught.

Ah, no excuse for that.

Ours is strict, being govt and all

Gotta be strict while your employees accomplish nothing on the tax payers dime.

Alright Regex experts, I need a pattern to match this...

(R,C,126)

I need the pattern match on the parenthesis BUT exclude them in the result, as well as then match a comma-separated list of values excluding the commas. So, using an iterator, the output would be:

R
C
126

This is for C++, if that makes any difference. Javascript has some limitations with its regex expressions which isn't implacable here.

And what % of those people are dead weight? I know I wasn't that impressed with other Defense Contractors when I worked at them. Lots of very useless people taking pay while the burdon of the real work fell on a small group of competent people.
