I've been the tech lead on a pretty big, drawn-out project at work. It was estimated by some other team as a few months. We came in, and discovered a whole mess of techdebt related to our use-case specifically. It's been half a year with no signs of stopping.
Morale is low. Really low. The managers are doing their best, the product managers have cut scope dramatically, but it's still an elephant-in-the-room.
I find myself working really late nights, weekends, and so on just to try and get everything done. No one's asking me to do this, but it doesn't feel like it'll be possible to get everything done without it.
The other week there was a pretty long argument over basically nothing, and other teams openly describe the project as a long depressing slog.
Anyone else been in a similar scenario? What can I do to turn things around?

I'd spend hours browsing 4chan and laughing at some good memes. Let the team know you literally couldn't give a toss about the project but are a great guy but then occasionally going into spells of unbelievable rage, smashing things and screaming at staff.

Tell them to stop dicking around and allow all 4 to share cell phone towers with each other. Also encourage them to put up more towers in poor zones somehow.

Helping my dad with his resume. He had all these operating systems, software, and programming languages in one paragraph in a jumble. I think I've got these mostly organized in the right categories but I'm not sure about ((GUMBO, DBASE, FOXBASE, LANSMART)) and how the softwares and programming languages should be ordered.
Anyone have suggestions?

For one, buy him a new keyboard so he can turn off capslock.
Consider changing the resume's theme from 'early 90s website' to 'resume'
>programming languages - HTML, SQL
Those aren't programming languages. HTML is a markup language and SQL is a query language.

>>56103600
one of those is turing complete though
also check'd

>>56103600
Alright, I'm changing it to normal capitalization. I'm thinking about changing the look as well but I also have to make sure it's all on one page and he has big paragraphs which makes it hard for me.
>Those aren't programming languages
I always thought html was... >>56103697
does Turing completeness define what makes a proper programming language?

I am working my way through The C Programming Language, Second Edition (famously known as K&R). If anyone is interested, I think it would be a fun idea to start up an IRC and work together through the text.
We will be working at an accelerated pace to cover the 77 sections of the text, and we will be completing all exercises. Through the IRC, you can ask for help, compare answers, etc. I intend to complete the text in well under a month - I can work out a specific schedule if more individuals join.
Since the coverage will be accelerated, please only express interest if you can see yourself seriously completing the text in a month. If you're unexperienced with programming, you're still welcome to join, but you might find this experience challenging.
So, is anyone interested?

During Japan's tech boom it felt like their big companies dabbled in every field possible. Cameras, TVs, phones, video game, software and hardware etc.
Why aren't the Koreans as bold? LG and Samsung are relatively tame when you compare their history to Sony or Panasonic. The car companies too. Where is my Kia lawnmower?

>Why aren't the Koreans as bold?
It's a young country, and its brands are younger. Samsung was better known as a sugar refinery that had just moved onto freeze dried noodles in 1970. Japanese companies at the same time were already making cheap radios and TV's for export.

Would someone explain the difference between RISC and CISC?

CISC architectures create shorter easier to read assembly code but there's a lot of disadvantages that come with that. CISC instructions are "complex" in that they do multiple steps at a time but they also span multiple cycles and they require more complex hardware to decode and execute. CISC architectures simply aren't capable of scaling down as efficiently as RISC architectures.
RISC instructions are basically done one step at a time so it leads to longer assembly code but the upside of this is the hardware used to decode and execute RISC instructions is much simpler in design and the space savings you get from the simpler hardware means you can add more execution units and more registers and other hardware which can greatly help to increase the performance of your CPU.

RISC archs are usually easier to learn

Write in any text editor. I prefer Sublime Text 3, but really, anything works.
Compile with MinGW-w64. This is a distribution of GCC for targeting Win32, and it can target both IA-32 and x86-64 architectures. You do have to use the command line, stop complaining. How can you write a build script if you don't understand basic command line parameters?
