Gustavo6046

I don't know how to review code :(

Dan Pantry

@Gustavo6046 And therefore you shouldn't expect people to do it for you in 54 minutes

It takes me about 20 minutes just to digest what is going on in a question

Then I haev to address each point (of which there could be several) and give explanations for each one, any caveats, citations, etc.

It is rare that I can write a decent review in under an hour

I would imagine most people are the same.

Quill

4:15 PM

Depends on the complexity of the question

Dan Pantry

Especially c++ where questions tend to be more complex [citation needed]

Mat's Mug

@Gustavo6046 you can surely try! pick a post in a language you're somewhat familiar with, read the code, and you'll certainly think "hey, I would have done that instead" or "woah, that's some bad naming, I have no idea what's going on"

Gustavo6046

thanks :)

Mat's Mug

like, open up a notepad and take notes as you read through the code

Dan Pantry

Also bear in mind that yours isnt the only question on the site

Mat's Mug

4:16 PM

then suggest improvements, and you have an answer :)

Dan Pantry

people who could review your question might be reviewing someone else's

Just be patient :-)

Ethan Bierlein

@DanPantry That's mostly true. This answer sort of proves it too: codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/107009/…

Zak

Ah, klkl. Nevermind.

Dan Pantry

and even then you wouldn't accrue enough rep. You'd need approx 6k rep I thnk to get rewards

Zak

@DanPantry 5.8k

And I could get to 5.6k With 14 days of rep-capping ^^

Dan Pantry

if you capped every day for the next 2 weeks you'd get 2800, which would put you at 5.4k

You have 2686 rep + (14 * 2000) = 5486

Mat's Mug

Trying to see if I can get the SQL queries logged

Probably unrelated, but always nice to see those coming by:

> java.lang.RuntimeException: Reloading agent exited via exception, please raise a jira
at org.springsource.loaded.agent.ClassPreProcessorAgentAdapter.transform(ClassPreProcessorAgentAdapter.java:110)

@Phrancis pastebin.com/mHrqMkfj Not sure if that is what I wanted to see :P

Phrancis

What is the value actually passed to limit ? ?

skiwi

7:42 PM

That's what I'm wondering as well

Simon Forsberg McFeely

@skiwi Well there's your problem.

skiwi

@Phrancis pastebin.com/nRevhWJ1 better?

Except... it doesn't seem to bind limit

But the limit clause can't be restricting on any fields, right?

Phrancis

It wouldn't restrict per field, no

skiwi

So it's doing something I haven't told it to do ^^

Phrancis

It would restrict the amount of rows you get, which depending on how they are ordered could give the illusion that it is filtering by date, or by ID

skiwi

7:47 PM

So if the query is right, then maybe the data is not in Grails/Spring/Hibernate/magic

@Phrancis Except it's outputting more rows if I add more to it, unless it uses a rolling limit

Phrancis

What if you remove the limit clause?

skiwi

I can't, I didn't put it there

Phrancis

oh

So all that SQL code is created by Hibernate?

skiwi

Yep

Duga

I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because this working complete code example is better-suited to codereview.stackexchange.com. Recommend migration. — Adam Smith 32 secs ago

Can you link the calling code here?

skiwi

def index(FindPlayerCommand findPlayerCommand) {
    def spyReports = SpyReport.findAllByPlayer(findPlayerCommand.player)
    [spyReports: spyReports]
}

Not sure if that makes you any wiser ^^

Phrancis

Right... and it worked correctly before?

skiwi

Yeah

Maybe I can try logging in PostgreSQL itself

Simon Forsberg McFeely

@skiwi findAllByPlayer is a Gorm auto-generated method?

I would guess that Grails/Gorm is doing some pagination for you here

@skiwi git diff - what changed?

skiwi

@SimonForsbergMcFeely Yep

@SimonForsbergMcFeely Nothing

PostgreSQL here is sending all data I ask for, bugs...

Or maybe it's just on @Mast machine, but I kinda doubt that

Mast

The data is still there, but Grails doesn't want it anymore.

While the fresh data is stored in exactly the same manner in the same table.

Simon Forsberg McFeely

@skiwi So if the code didn't change, did the data change?

Phrancis

Who owns the SQL instance?

skiwi

Define ownership ^^

Phrancis

Is it owned by OGame or by one of you?

skiwi

@SimonForsbergMcFeely Nothing changed, so I don't think it's a new bug, only found about it today

It's our data as soon as we put it in our database :p

Phrancis

8:05 PM

Ah, right

skiwi

Maybe it's time to figure out what exactly Hibernate Second-Level Cache is

EBrown

@SimonForsbergMcFeely Unfortunately yes, I periodically (about three times a week) get reminded of that.

skiwi

I could pretend there's no bug and get hit by it again in the future

EBrown

@skiwi I like that idea best.

skiwi

Well, it's not a blocker, stuff appears to be working, it's just that some old data is refusing to be loaded

What can possibly go wrong?

Phrancis

8:13 PM

How badly do you need that old data?

EBrown

@Phrancis I consider data after the last few hours ancient history.

It's served me well so far.

(Actually, that's a lie. I'm a data junkie. I store logs of EVERYTHING.)

Simon Forsberg McFeely

@skiwi Where was the data before?

EBrown

Which reminds me, @Phrancis when you get time I would appreciate help setting up some SQL auditing.

Mast

@SimonForsbergMcFeely It's keys scraped by a userscript in a browser, send to Grails which stores it into a database.

Q: One Time Pad algorithm for encryption and decryption

I have written my own one time pad algorithm for encryption and decryption, but I would like to listen to your opinions about its correctness and eventually how could I improve it. My idea was to keep it readable, but not so bad in terms of performance. I have also written some tests. Here's the...

8:15 PM

@Phrancis For this application I probably wouldn't even have noticed it if we had a proper web interface that showed like last X entries in a nice format ^^

I just noticed it because it's a dev build that shows raw data and noticed everything was gone at some point :D

Phrancis

If a bug exists but your users can't notice, is there really a bug?

EBrown

@Phrancis /s/bug/"Unexpected Features"

Mast

They will notice it if we keep having this bug in deployment.

EBrown

"Where'd all my data go?" "Right, about your data..."

JNat

@EBrown Did you find anything on it?

(I was AFK for a while)

EBrown

8:21 PM

@JNat A few minor ones, looks like the consensus is that displaying the Birthday is optional, but age is mandatory.

Should I make a big Meta on it?

Phrancis

@EBrown Just ping me in the SQL room whenever you want to

skiwi

@EBrown "We actually do have it in our database... we just can't show it to you"

okay 32 hours awake take their tribute...

Niters, maybe I can kick my sleep-cycle into shape like this :/

Q: How Does One Get A Copy of a ShelveSet for Code Review?

My team has recently upgraded to TFS and we are implementing code reviews. Our process so far is to make the changes that we deem necessary, go to Pending Changes in VS (2015), click Actions, Request Code Review. The reviewer needs to make sure the change made actually resolves the issue (or am...
