Atlassian has comprehensive (and visual appealing) documentation on Git. https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/atlassian-git-cheatsheet Unfortunately Git has a lot of commands, most of which you'll probably never use. I suggest you play around with it to get used to the workflow and be prepared for your daily job. Just don't do stuff like "git push -f" and you should be fine. You might find this worth reading: https://sqlite.org/whynotgit.html There you have it, your problem is not Git, it's the tools. Have you ever

Sorry about that @LogMAN. It should be publicly visible now. Please try again and let me know: VIPM KnowledgeBase: Disabling VIPM service (System Tray) startup when LabVIEW starts up

I've seen that with clients I have been working for on LabVIEW related projects. A new software development manager came in with a clear dislike for LabVIEW as it is only a play toy. The project was canceled and completely rebuild based on a "real" PLC instead of a NI realtime controller. The result was a system that had a lot less possibilities and a rather big delay in shipping the product. Obviously I didn't work on that "new" project and don't quite know if it was ever installed at the customer site. That said, we as company are reevaluating our use of LabVIEW currently. We have no pl

Thanks for the quick response @LogMAN No problem @LogMAN. I enjoy a good rant, as much as anyone 😛 I try not to take it personally when it's about VIPM (even though it's been a labor of love for ~20 years), and honor everyone's good intentions to make their development tools better, contribute to the community, and get their work done as effectively as possible. Those are really good points about how to make the VIPM system tray service more configurable in terms of opt-in/-out. Honestly, we were/are trying to take a lean (MVP) approach and listen to people's feedback. That's a

@Aristos Queue, I was part of the private preview event and afterwards there were several comments basically saying "I watched all of this and have no idea what NI is announcing". And multiple requests that NI make it clear what they are trying to announce. I thought maybe the public event would be more clear. Nope, dozens of comments were flying in asking what, if anything was changing as the event went on. After the event ended my favorite comment was "That was a great introduction, but when does the actual event start?". Threads on Reddit, LAVA, and NI all have had various amounts of "

I don't mind the new green on the landing page of ni.com, but elsewhere on the site the new theme is a bit too much. I wanted to fix the near invisible links that @LogMAN ran into, but got a bit carried away: If anyone is interested in using the blue style, you can download it from here. Be warned it's not perfect, there's still lots of green bits on mouse over etc, but I find overall it makes the site much more readable. If blue isn't your thing, the primary color can be changed by setting the root --forrest-green color to something else.
