16:35 < Evilpig> thank bob.  my passport has shipped
16:35 <@Dolemite> when do you need it?
16:35 < Evilpig> I don't.  but I don't like having invalid identification documents laying around
16:35 < Evilpig> My badge works as ID to get on campus right?
16:42 <@Dolemite> yes
16:42 < Evilpig> then no worries.  looks like I need to be onsite on the 24th
16:42 <@Dolemite> if you forget your badge, now that you're in the system, your driver's license is sufficient to go to the badge office for a temporary
16:43 <@Dolemite> ah, group meeting?
16:43 < Evilpig> my license is still valid, but I haven't bothered with the little star whatever crap 
16:43 < Evilpig> cfengine onsite training
16:43 < Evilpig> I set the dude on fire this afternoon
16:44 < Evilpig> Here is a cfengine function.  https://docs.cfengine.com/docs/3.21/reference-functions-getusers.html#top
16:44 < PigBot> getusers - CFEngine 3.21 Docs (at docs.cfengine.com) https://tinyurl.com/2l65v9km
16:44 < Evilpig> simple enough, read all users on the system and spit them back to me
16:44 < Evilpig> "allusers" slist => getusers("","");
16:44 < Evilpig> WHY THE FUCK DO YOU NEED TO GIVE IT TWO BLANK VARIABLES?!?!?!!
16:45 <@Dolemite> You should introduce them to the Palo Alto engineers
16:45 < Evilpig> clearly, any half brained junior programmer can tell that should just be getusers()  and if you need to add extra crap then you do so
16:46 < Evilpig> but nOOOOOOOOO, their entire language is full of crap like this and they wonder how they got so easily pushed aside by the likes of puppet, ansible, teraforms, etc
16:48 < Evilpig> I have an indexed array.  let's call it get_fukt.  now get_fukt is a traditional associative array like you would have in any language  "key"-> "value"  if you want to read get_fukt  you have to first make a variable we'll call waste_of_time = get_array_indexes(get_fukt)
16:49 < Evilpig> now you can use their bizzaro looping functions to apply waste_of_time to get_fukt to in whatever function you're trying to run but you have to do so as "$(get_fukt[$(waste_of_time)]"  there isn't a notion of handling items one on one, you use them all.  there are ways to filter the items but you have to do it before you call that magic combinator
16:50 <@Dolemite> *sigh*
16:50 < Evilpig> I read in a set of strings from a text file.  one pair per line in the format  <key>=<value>  simple.  easy to parse in a million ways
16:51 < Evilpig> took me nearly two hours to decipher how in their backwards ways and eventually, used a function that turned that file into an almost json formatted string that I could replace all the = in with "; " and bam!  json
16:51 < Evilpig> then I still had to futz with that insane array handling
16:54 < Evilpig> when I was "discussing" the getusers() shitshow amidst my coworkers they were equally amused and horrified probably.  I've had a pounding headache all day and that pushed me over the edge and I said something to the effect of whatever moron wrote this deserves to be chemically sterilized so their flawed genetics stop immediately
16:55 < Evilpig> I stand by that
