What is some of your Pet Peeve's

[Oaktree]

When developers make items smaller and add layers of color which obfuscate the numbers.

Or "manuals" for products that are printed with 6p type on a 4x4" "booklet". Can't read some of that even with a magnifying glass. As you noted, weird color combinations don't help either.

Another day, Another peeve...
At my homeplace where my 98yo Mother still lives and I was born 73 years ago I remember when Grandfather had a 2 acre pond put in 1954. Spring fed and until a year ago clear water. You can see Google satellite view how grey/brown the water is now. About 40 years ago the county put in sewage pipes, one gravity one high pressure pipes in through the property.
I had county inspectors out and they called today saying everything is fine. The lake and creek has a sewer smell and water is cloudy gray. They said it's "stagnant water"!!!!!?
I called the DEQ and see if it can be escallated, although excavation and trying to find the problem won't be easy.
I'm certainly not expert, just common sense but I said why not have sample jars. Start upstream from lake, then lake, then downstream every few hundred feet. Testing for E. Coli (or whatever they do) if higher levels would show where it's coming from.

Most of my software runs on Linux, as stated in my post, just not Mac OS. This is mostly 3D modeling and electrophysics simulation software, for high frequency, thermal, flomerics, and particle physics. But even stuff as basic as my 3D CAD software (SolidWorks) isn't supported on Mac or Linux.

Of course you can make it run on either with emulation, but without native support for 3D graphics accelleration and GPU functionality, they're too slow for working large models. Likewise with simulation, when a simulation can take hours to days on exceptionally powerful multi-socket PC's with dozens of cores and can bind up dozens or even hundreds of gigabytes of memory, the last thing you want is to be running it on CPU emulation.

Yeah, I don't do anything that sophisticated with my CAD. I create 2D drawings of flat backplates and electrical enclosures to be machined on a large CNC machine. We are just drilling holes, tapping holes and running a roughing cutter to create large openings in the enclosures. Also create drawings for laser engraving signage and tags to go on the enclosures and backplates. Glorified etch-a-sketch.

If they won't do it, you can. There will be a cost involved but if you find a problem you should be able to recover it.

What a shitty deal. But seriously, that sucks if it's really happening.

"Everyone hates a lawyer, until they need one." This might be one of those times.

Of course you can do your own dig and find the problem to prove your point, but that could lead to claims that you somehow caused the damage, and could become very expensive for you.
