eeck that sucks Soli... what kinda bug is it?

I can't really go into too much detail unfortunately. It's just some data that doesn't get updated. It's basically a synchronisation between a program and a website and the program gets updated but not the website. So next time when you want to synchronise it tells you that the data has already been updated in the program which is correct. But for some reason nobody ever questioned why it was showing data that has already been synced. And that it has been happening for a couple of months now. Eh, I hope that made sense.

UHM ok i will take your word on that(no it didnt make much sense) so what does this mean for the company? will it mean them suffering a loss of some kind or is it simply something that can be fixed
 
So got broken into again on friday ...

Aw no man, that sucks. Did they get away with anything and are you alright? Where do you stay?

No luckily it doesn't affect anyone in a bad way and can just be fixed. :)
 
Finding it difficult to concentrate today - to focus on anything.
My brain feels like it's working but there's no work that needs to be done. Might have to sleep earlier tonight. Coffee is doing nothing for me. My brain's grow immune to the caffeine influence.

Made perfect sense. Just a question, are you guys doing synchronous or asynchronous data syncs? Seeing as you're a .NET guy these days, I'm assuming you trigger a sync of sorts via your controller method (MVC?) or other page handler (WebForms). Remember to release those threads quickly so as to not clog up the threada on IIS - so a processor of sorts (Windows Service implemented in Observer pattern perhaps?) would do wonders.

Hehe I'm glad it makes sense to another programmer. We've got two ways of doing the sync, either via the website where it's asynchronous and is done via the controller. The one where the problem lies is with running the sync through the program. It calls a couple of webservices (ServiceStack) and syncs through there. When the program is done with everything it tells the web service to mark the data as synced and that bit didn't happen. So a very easy bug to fix but I find it amazing that no one realised after a couple of months that it was happening. Luckily it's written in such a way that data can't be duplicated so nothing much was affected besides seeing more and more items to sync and getting messages that the items have been synced before.

Oh well, overall it was my mistake which sucks. I hate making mistakes but unfortunately they do happen.

What is this?

Don't post in a hurry, it's offends grammar nazis.
 
Don't I know it. Fortunately my habits don't cost a lot of money (that's to say if I don't buy random junk online every 2 weeks).
Lol, I have a few.

Energy drinks, expensive
Pokemon cards, expensive
Buying beer, expensive
Gaming, expensive

I need to find cheaper thrills, like online piracy.
