It's the dynamic return from BuildParameters. Dynamics are resolved at run time. Its use as input to LoadFromDatabase means the compiler can't match a particular signature for LoadFromDatabase at compile time. Ergo...

Simplified the example a tiny bit to focus on the relevant parts, including changing the signature of GetReportData a bit to eliminate the local. Hint: Returning an IEnumerable<object> from a function that promises a List<object> should be a compile-time error. So why isn't that the case?

Found something cursed as fuck in a C# project today. Here's a contrived example. Can you spot the hidden "error"?

if you don't know who the guy is on your super team whose high-tech armor is the real member and could be put on any other guy, it's you

Sony, publish ports of the Dark Cloud games on the Switch, u cowards

The only thing I care less about than the APIs I have to maintain is any application integrating with them. There is nothing like maintaining an API for eroding empathy.

If you're passing out Halloween candy, you are entitled to withhold some for personal use, but sorting like all the Reese's cups out for yourself is a fucked mindset, serial killer behavior.

The masculine urge to greet someone you see once a year with HOW THE HELL ARE YA

There's a bag of pearl barley sitting on the counter, and every time I walk past it, I think of Pearl Bailey.

Look who didn't get the Christmas letter

I could do it, I could bear the weight of it, I could smile and we'd go for burgers after, I would sleep like a baby, ten years later I'm quoted in the newspaper as saying "I'm doing great!"

the masculine urge to touch the door when another dude is holding it open

I am a peace-loving man who believes everyone involved in the production & distribution of that AI attack ad should be killed & eaten in the streets by an angry mob

Jesus, the Barbie Dreamhouse Playset box is unsettling.

Guys love to complain about--they think it was like ten years ago maybe?--how all the plastic wrap changed, like it sucks now, they have all this great Pyrex but nothing sticks to it, they have to put like a fukken rubber band around the plastic wrap so why even BUY it anymore

if you don't know, be assured your pursuer does, stay strapped out there

KNOW THE DIFFERENCE: Dracula Lives! * magazine * nipples Tomb of Dracula * comic book * Silver Surfer

my mom talked to me on the phone for like an hour yesterday before hitting me out of nowhere with "if you quit your job, maybe you could start writing again"

Running a tabletop game? Run out of time to prep and need your players to burn time arguing with each other so you can improvise at the table? Consider giving their characters a device that can make explosives from blood.

Nobody should feel like a sack of shit for asking for help when they need it, say amen

on whether quarter-munching arcade beat-'em-ups are inferior to skill-based games:

atlassian sending me emails like "ur teammates are updating confluence pages!" and it's like good for them i hope their managers see this leave me out of it

Seeing a lot of AI comics posted unwittingly (at least I hope the posters are unwitting)

convincing the city to fill a sinkhole by kneeling in it nude like a terminator until someone calls the cops

The translucency in Liquid Glass just makes the top of the screen look scuzzy in Mail. Look how gross this is!

My local public radio station is the king of playing just enough of "Let Me Blow Ya Mind" for me to go "o shit" then going right into promoting their vehicle donation program
