YOU can help phasing out IE8! If everyone stops supporting it, web users will be more inclined not to use a browser which makes all web sites look broken.

I guess if I stop supporting IE8 my employer will stop supporting my bank account...

Well, so IE8 does you good afterall, in increases the amount of work you get paid for.

Why not try Sharepoint development - it's all the joy of HTML/CSS/Javascript + ASP.NET with Sharepoint on top.

Really glad to see this post. I'm a self learner without a lot of skills. OK, I've been working with HTML/CSS for a while now and when they didn't work as advertized I kept wondering "what am I doing wrong!" Now I understand from the experts where the problems lie: These things simply don't work as advertized.

Either
a) Another example of how tightly hardwired the human brain for pattern matching
b) Proof that Mother Nature is there and calmly letting us know she's ready and waiting

I expected that link to be either "Hello, sweetie" (Carved on a cliff face) or "Thanks for all the fish".
I was disappointed

Not just a smiley face but a mysterious smiley face. ...and this is what they call "news"?
|
|
|
|

When apple release the new iOS, media always talk about new emoji (= smiley)
Therefore smiley is news
At least they do not say it is face of Jesus.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

"Mysterious"? WTF "mysterious"?
"Cool", "cute", "unexpected", or one of a thousand other adjectives would be fine, but "mysterious"?
And that's not to mention the three million more suitable headlines that could have been used.

Yup. Idiot writers never realise that being intelligent is is more effective than being stoopid.

What software or process have you seen to be successful in tracking business dependencies?
For example, we have a PowerPoint macro that executes and downloads dashboard images from our main ASP.Net app and builds a sales presentation. The PPT rarely gets touched by development so we do not usually think about it when we need to change something about the dashboard images.
We have many, many dependencies like this between our many different processes and applications. We have a main web site, some other supporting websites (like SSRS), SSIS, a few windows services and some console apps. Trying to remember or know what is affected by a change in the main app is getting to be very challenging.
How have you approached this problem? I hope I have explained it clearly enough. How do you track dependencies so that an update to one system does not end up breaking another?

We use a combination of Jira with CI tooling (JetBrains TeamCity) and source control. When an assembly changes, the build process tracks *every* application that builds off it and the CI processes rebuild those applications. We have policies to enforce pre-commit builds so that builds cannot be broken.

Thank you. I'll look into that.

I have pondered this issue as well.
I am part of a group that works on a large data collection application; there are 70+ installations with a few million data points.
On each server, there may be calculations that are dependent on other data points - how to track those? Change a data point, such as rename it, and break the calculation.
Then, there are data points that are copied to other servers for various business reasons; a point may be copied from 'A' to 'B' to 'C' because there is no direct path from 'A' to 'C'; again, change any of them and break the chain. How to track those?
And, of course, where are the data points consumed?
I'd like to build an automated system to track the dependencies with SQL Server, but.. don't think that is gonna happen...

I think there are tools to track dependencies within SQL as there are within Visual Studio code, but I really need something that covers all of them including documents or just processes, not just code.

I think to build what I need would be pretty massive, not only to build the software to do it but also to input the data. That would be pretty overwhelming.
Thanks for the feedback though.
