So much for new hardware. Google just announced a streaming platform; the same one they already had with Assassin's Creed and the likes from last year.

Hey there's no place for iced tea in this chat. It's either pizza or knitting. Pick a side and stick to it ! šŸ˜‰

I’ve informed Jack of this development. He approves.

Ugh...Google picked a bad week to shut down one of their old chart APIs. I spent my whole afternoon researching what was up (markers weren't showing up) and trying to code a workaround for two of our Google map algorithms. It's mostly finished, but there are still a few kinks to work out.

To be fair, they did announce this particular API was being discontinued some time ago. We normally catch this stuff fairly quickly, but this code was pretty custom in order to create different colored markers for different subsets of data. I mostly had to do an image swap and still need to change how some of the back-end logic handles all of that.

Yay legacy applications! Fist pump I'm actually enjoying messing around with the new stuff, but I had to quit for the day. I'm mentally baked lol.

@Morrow (I figured we were way off topic on that page so I'm pulling the conversation over here to the chit-chat thread) Lol, my boss is pretty chill, but the main reason is just that I'm an ALT(assistant language teacher) in Japan, and its the end of the school year here. A third of the students have already finished and the rest just have club activities - which I have no involvement in but my contract says "school day, I go to work" even if there is no class.

Also my Japanese conveniently degrades when there is something I don't want to deal with. hehe. Joking aside I offer to help with other responsibilities pretty regularly, not my fault they either don't want the help or have too much pride to accept it. I stop offering to help when you say no every time. Contract says I am there, I teach English when there is a class and help with miscellaneous duties as requested. I do that, so they can't complain. XD

@Tyranexx But did you first try turning it off, then on again? The whole google?

Yeah that sucks. Our IT head doesn’t always send me patch notes whenever there’s updates to our EMR software; One patch completely changed which sql data table was used for something. Took me a week to figure where it went.

@Heavyarms55 Yes, the wonderful ā€œOther duties as assignedā€.

@Heavyarms55 Oh, but yes. I'm in the administration arm of my agency. But whenever routine audit commitees are coming, I'm also moving furniture, planting flowers, pruning bushes, setting up welcome areas, auditing clinical documents, etc.

@Heavyarms55 Seriously, does Japan ever actually accept foreigners for anything other than English teachers? That's pretty much the only profession I ever hear of foreigners ever actually being there for.
