True. I like smaller systems - some analog stuff, a few FPGAs, thousands of lines of uP code - because that can be shipped bug-free... if you really are willing to do it right.
The paradox is that big systems are assembled from small chunks, usually smaller than one on my apps, but have bugs. The bugs are usually *within* those small chunks.

It got that name 1984ish. Perhaps a variation of "DoubleplusC"? If you're familiar with Newspeak, particularly Doublethink, there's no difficulty in reconciling the various claims for C++ with reality.

Please don't insult Weasels. They recently joined the Teamsters, and are no longer above using dirty tricks and tactics.
Here, the file server is the company library. It isn't the backup, it _needs_ to be backed up. Off site. Reliably.
Flinging around acronyms can't change that reality.

I assume the VCS manages its own versions and builds. Or do you use another VCS to manage the configuration of this one?
Cool. This is just the sort of recursive time-bomb that programmers delight in.
What's the turnover among VCS management people? I sure doesn't sound like a fun job.
I'm reminded of the war between coders and testers in "Showstopper!"

Yeah, yeah, and if that 1.5TB drive croaks you lose two months of history (backups). Keeping them on separate media is a safety feature.
There was no argument. I did not lose anything. I merely stated that you are a goddamned liar for the remark you just made. I stand behind that reference to you, John Larkin. You, John Larkin, are a goddamned liar.
Does that make it any more clear to you, asswipe? It was not an insult, it was a declaration of fact. Calling you an asswipe just now was the insult, you dumb, illiterate, retarded bastard.
I wish you would learn how to read. Your retardation level is like wading through a swimming pool full of s*it and claiming to have free money at the bottom of it.
You are a total retard. You starred in the film!
The NAS device IS the mobile, off-site device, idiot!
You put it on your server, and you mirror your server to it. You take it with you at night. You could even keep another one in a fire safe to have yet another.
It isn't about choosing to speak using an acronym, you retarded piece of s*it.
It is about you being too goddamned stupid to know what reality is. You are worse than a horse with blinders on. Your bent attitude has you posting with your thumb up your ass every time. Learn to read, dumbshit.
You wouldn't know a globally accepted paradigm if one bit you in the ass. Oh... too late. It's true. You are too stupid. Your degreaser factoid proved that. Funny. Absolutely hilarious.
I guess that makes you the obese troll that stayed in the shadows enough to go un-noticed, lard ass. Except, that is, by observers that actually have brains, like me.
WRONG! ANY previous day's backup will get you what you are after, dipshit.
Also, the odds of ANY of the backup drives "croaking" as you put it are less than your always on server's drive. Far less.
Do you honestly think that real, properly operated businesses are backing up onto DVDs on a daily, full backup basis?
You have no clue what the word overkill means. Except you are doing it on volatile media. Far more volatile than magnetic disc storage devices could ever be.
You Archie ... have brains?
Bwuahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

What about your claim of celibacy Archie? Is that a truthful statement?

Could be, but once NTP starts up that will quickly be corrected.
Damn, do you never get tired of troll feeding?
Its true! They are bovine brains and he keeps them in a jar of Formaldehyde, but they are brains!

Obvious; but why?

If it is all assembled from small chunks, then any error has to be within one such chunk.
You are thick!
It did every time it BSODed.
