IE is the bane of my fucking existence.

You want to send a CORS request to just another site hosted on the same server? Sorry, IE doesn't fucking allow CORS at all period full stop. Have fun dicking around with P3P settings for a week!

Fuck this shit man, everyone just use a different not-shit browser.

Ok I am being punked. I think this entire job must be a big prank on me. In the test suite I'm working on, each test case has an associated configuration file. We're talking hundreds of .conf files that set variables to be used by the tests.

THERE IS NO MECHANISM ANYWHERE IN THE TEST SUITE TO ACTUALLY READ THESE FILES. THEY ARE COMPLETELY USELESS.

Alz, Cixah, Toop, other programmers, we should all drink away our tech related worries and watch Space Jam.

Well I mean, you're invited, but that's probably what I'm doing tonight.

My boss's husband is an alcohol distributer. After a meeting she pulled out this bottle of bourbon (which I've never had before) and I swear to God that I could have drank nothing but that for the rest of my life.

There are a couple perks to this job.

I'm not sure you understand. It's not that I can't use them or can't edit them. They all exist and have variables in them that are supposedly meant to be used for the test cases. But when the tests run, they never look at the .conf file. Yet many of them are unique. Somebody created these test cases, and associated conf files, without somehow realizing that their conf files did nothing! HOW?!

Maybe someone rewrote the code to not need the conf files but left them there as an archive to look back on in the future. Like a museum for dead files.

I think I have to watch Blizzcon this year, Metallica playing there is way more interesting than Imagine Dragons at S4WC.

Are you sure they're not referenced? Sometimes those references aren't written in the code, rather in a web.config or a database table.

You could try editing one in a small way and then running the associated test to see if it changes anything, which is what I usually do in things like this.

This might be it. On November 7th 2013 the code was changed not to read the conf files. But was it on purpose or a mistake?

If the conf files are deprecated then he didn't tell anyone else, because lots of new ones have been added since then.

So you expect Blizzard to produce a time machine and bring back the Metallica from the late 80's? Because the current one blows..
