It's not your fault.
it's the fault of the person who cancelled backups, the person who didn't check that backups are being created, the "senior" people who let you work on the production database.... etc.

Doesn't work on my Windows Firefox... got it working on Chrome though.
Catalog your rabbit holes if possible, and then review them before working on them.
What I mean is, if you see a problem to solve, and you are able to keep working on your current task and to solve the problem later, then do so... just note the problem. This will immediately make you much more focused.
Then at the end of the day, review your list of rabbit holes and try and determine which ones are necessary for the current project, which ones would be educational / you want to do, and which ones can be discarded.
Basically rabbit holes are a problem because they are long and narrow and do not offer an overview of the entire grounds, so before jumping down a rabbit hole force yourself to survey the big picture and to see if you can step over it instead.

I love that fact that the other company was actually recycling an idea from 1919 and thinking they were onto something new.
I feel like you describe pretty often. I think the trick is to sleep, exercise, and concentrate on what's going on right now. You can't change the past, you can only change what you are doing right now, this second. You have control over that... hang in there. Also, rosser, you're answer seems very helpful.

This is awesome. I just tried to submit it. Is it a new site, that we both tried within 15 hours?
Awesome. Learning Haskell has been on my list for a long time, and I really appreciate that both books are available for free online. Thanks!
yeah, seems pointless without an iOS implementation. (pointless for people on mobile Apple products that is (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch))

but it doesn't show what is matched - as in a example matched string - which is the most important thing
also how do you put in the case insensitive flag?

Doesn't seem too surprising. The atmosphere and magnetic poles do work pretty hard to insulate us.
I hadn't known about it previously. Looks like the core is Python, which seems neat.
Mostly for animation, but good for stills too.

I think this is where customer testing comes in. Watch 10 or 100 customers try to use you product, and observe the features they "reach for" but are not there - and the ones that are there, but they never use.

I'm a developer at a small young tech company. I love to go in to work every day, and each day I solve little problems. But looking at the big picture - no matter how good I get at my current job - I will never really do anything "important." In other words, I don't do something that really "matters." Should I care about more than the fact that I love the details of what I do?
Same here, but chrome works.
I'm not sure it's a point lock issues, since that's supposed to work on FF.
In console, the difference I noticed is that FF has this error:
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at ws://./. - shoote...tBqO.js (line 57)
Chrome doesn't have that error.
