<0> because results get you more money than elegant code
<1> umm awk can be on more oses and servers than ksh
<1> nimwit
<0> don't let him talk to you like that Quant!
<2> rj: dimwit, the awk is being called from ksh
<1> And?
<1> are you forcing #!/whatever/ksh?
<2> the ksh script had awk "{print $1}"
<1> or is that just the shell YOU are using?
<2> lol
<2> forcing
<1> lame
<2> lool
<2> what does
<2> {print $1} do anyway
<2> like echo in ksh?



<0> tell that to the guy who got a fatter bonus because he delivered results in 5 minutes
<1> the 1st input
<0> it's all about the benjimans, man
<2> w/e
<2> we using sybase
<2> the stored procedures from 1999 are disgusting
<2> so many temp tables holy ****
<0> sybase is very popular in the financial industry
<0> and consider this quant: you've only seen a tiny % of the systems at your company so far :-)
<2> 100's of lines of **** in stored procedures for relatively simple reports
<2> rmah: yea, just one right now
<1> youll just love tds and jconnect
<2> it's a global system though
<2> written in 97
<0> Quant: wait until you see **** where people have *LOST* the source code
<2> lol
<0> that's funny
<2> it's a joke
<0> I've been through that... not fun
<2> i coulda dont such a better job
<2> done*
<0> Quant: so could the person who wrote it too (probably)
<0> anyway, that's why they hired you buddy :-)
<2> the person should be shot
<1> the next guy will think you are worse
<1> especially after that ksh comment
<0> haha, the fire of youth is so great
<2> the ****ing database isn't even normalized correctly
<0> I've never ever seen a production database in 4NF
<2> rjatt: i didnt write any ksh scripts yet, was just looking at some
<1> i rarely see important parts in 3rd
<0> Quant: push ruby and python
<2> clipper
<0> you'll get people who love you if you do
<0> and a fat bonus whether it works or not
<2> i heard bonuses are 30%
<0> remember, it's all about the bonus
<0> they can be even higher
<2> if you are a VP
<1> Quant, just remember youll be developing for OSes youve never heard before
<0> no, if you make them money
<2> rjarett: nope
<1> and people who arent allowed any open source apps. so even some options in awk wont be available since its not gnu awk
<2> rmah: traders make money, prorgammers waste money
<0> traders, for example, can get HUGE bonuses IF they produce
<2> our CEO's avg bonus is 44m
<0> that's not bad
<2> at goldman i heard 100m
<0> you can buy a nice boat for that cash
<0> goldman people are ***hats, IMO
<2> yea that boat
<2> i forgot what it's called
<2> i really want it
<2> for 29m
<0> Quant, do you know who sets your bonus yet?
<0> if you don't, find out
<2> not yet
<2> ...it might change
<0> make *that* person happy happy happy
<0> if it changes, make sure it changes soon, before the summer ends
<0> because bonuses come out in Dec/Jan and you want a few months under whoever sets your bonus before evals



<2> isnt bonus gonna be 50% of what tis' supposto be cuz i am not there full year
<0> sure, it'll be pro-rated
<2> lame
<0> but still, 50% of $20k is better than 50% of $10k
<2> 20k?
<2> more
<2> hopefully
<0> whatever
<1> lol
<2> i am hoping 30
<1> this is too funny
<0> not if you keep going home early
<0> you're new dude, you gotta grind
<1> 2% prorated if you qualify at all
<0> RJarett: not on wall street
<2> dude
<0> I've worked there, bonuses are a LARGE part of compensation
<2> 50% of bonus and then 50% more to taxes
<2> so that's like
<1> Quant is a grunt at sap isnt he?
<2> no
<1> whats your new job?
<0> he does grunt
<0> if that matters :-)
<0> I don't think Quant was *ever* at SAP
<2> nope
<2> why SAP?
<1> someone was talking abou a new job there
<0> poor fellah
<0> SAP is hell
<1> you at susquehana group? heheh
<1> thats a wallstreet tech firm that hires bitches
<0> hmm.. aren't they outside philly?
<2> lol
<1> they handle trading floor systems
<0> yeah, they have an office in balla cynwyd (outside philly)... I knew a guy who worked there way back when
<2> trading floor systems is too much stress
<0> what a nerd
<0> Quant: you haven't seen stress yet :-)
<2> lol
<0> so, is it everything you dreamed, Quant?
<2> no
<2> sux
<0> haha
<2> thats why i need to go for computational finance masters real quick
<0> I *told* you that guy who writes wallstreetprogrammer.com spoke the truth
<2> thats where bonuses are at
<0> but did you believe me? nooooo
<2> rmah: yea, exactly what that ****er says
<2> buncha ****ing convoluted scripts
<0> get into an applications group
<2> it's been a week
<0> then at least you can create something
<2> and visualstudio isnt installed on my pc yet
<2> 7 ****ing people have to approve that ****
<0> that's all?
<0> you're lucky
<1> could be worse. you could be in charge of it all, have no help, and have it all be on your shoulders
<3> could be even worse, *i* could be in charge of it all
<3> muahaha
<4> how much more costly is using LIKE compared with =
<3> about $3.50
<4> bend over so I can swipe my VISA through your *** crack
<5> I have a sql query with join, but I need to modify my result so that all matches with primary key only gets a specified amout of returned rows. How can I do that?
<6> guys
<6> what does this mean: Unknown column 'a.paidbyadmin' in 'on clause'
<7> whats up, how would i count all of the rows in a table based on an id, then order by the id's that had the most records?
<7> nm
<8> hi all!
<8> When I do an order by on a enum field, is it possible to define the order which must be returned?
<8> probably not .. :-(
<9> suppose i'm doing a select query that returns 2 rows, eg. [1, 5445, 'blah', 1] and [1, 5445, 'blah', 2] -- so they're identical apart from the last value
<9> is it possible to have the query return only 1 row and aggregate the last column, so i receive eg [1, 5445, 'blah', '1,2'] ?
<10> hello guys, id like to ask for syntax that returns the results of some column that is warchar and its size is >20
