@jespersh if b = null then FirstOrDefault() will throw a null exception. You will have to null check b.

@Gregozor2121 you can do a flowchart or at least map out all the possiblities of that particular if statement. I don't do this for everything but thought it would be a fun to try and do given that small if statement packs so much into just a few characters.

@Voxera Sadly we just updated code base from .NET Framework 4.6.0 to 4.7.1/.net standard 2.0. Due to the nature of the software and 3rd party applications that use our libraries, I don't envision them going to C#8 for a 3 or 4 years after it's official release.

@jespersh personally I hate the syntax but I understood it or at least the intent immediately. It took us almost an hour to create a flow chart for that if statement. I showed this to a js dev and they literally said wtf and gave up without trying.

@Voxera totally agree. My "fix" was just poking fun of the null check inception madness. Syntax is so dirty. I obviously refactored it into cleaner, more readable code.

Fixed: if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(a?.Id ?? (b?.Any() ? b[0]?.Id : null)))...

@irene they also forgot to do a count check. Both null and empty "b" would crash it.

Update: Global Software Development said I was right and they forgot to remove a "feature" that wasn't fully functional prior to release.

smh.

@Jase usb keyboard was connected and keyboard works on other computers. But requiring a keyboard on boot is stupid. Had to pull out the good ole keyboard with ps2.

@Jumpshot44 actually they do. especially the mathematical puzzles. they get the white boards involved. something about programmers and math.

@lquessenberry I love toggl but they dont want to pay the fee for premium features and the free version is decent enough but they don't like the permission mgt and the lack of reporting.

@simeg I have constant flow of other projects. This time tracking thing has been on the back burner for 2 years before I was assigned the job. I have had it production ready but most of my co-workers (excluding Dept heads) really don't want to use. and each Dept head keep trying to scope creep as well.

Hoberman ball does look like the Chrome's logo.
