The last horrible late night shift at the nursing home is over.
On to nursing school.
Woo. He hopes Doctors without borders won't send him to chad. I figure anywhere they'd send you is somewhere nobody wants to be so I'm wondering why he draws the line. Chad isn't even in the worst 5 I can think of off hand.
Anyway, he's getting a bit ahead of himself. He hasn't even gotten accepted into nursing school yet.
Nor learned french. Though he knows spanish and picks up languages like i pick up programming languages so it's not much of an issue.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Talking about Luton, how's your follower doing nowadays?
Haven't heard anything for quite a while.

Heard nothing - he's probably still ranting away on FarceBok though.

I've been asked to install and update LinkedIn the other day, seems like that was in vain as well.

I'm not surprised - LinkedIn seems to be mostly a hunting ground for geographically challenged recruiters.

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.

So he's now going to have horrible late night shifts elsewhere?

It might not be top 5; but with Nigeria's Boko Haram insurgency bleeding across the border and it ending up on most corrupt/failed state lists it'd be very low on the list of sub-saharan countries that I'd consider making a visit to.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

My wife if one of those people you can trust to organize anything (not technical).
She also fittingly works as a project leader.
So after a long and stressful autumn with a lot of deadlines and to many projects, her company invites her to a "conference" at a spa in Bad Gastein.
Guess who arrives at the airport with my passport?

Checking the passport maybe a little too technical?
OK, I'll get my coat!

If a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, does it still require the use of protective headgear, footwear, and HiVis clothing rated EN ISO 20471 Class 2 or above?

I only ever banged my head on building sites when I was wearing a hard hat -- the peak stops you see scaffold bars, etc. that are just above you.
I figured it was something to do with Earl Williams' "production-for-use" theory.

Slang is kinda big, and build tools used in a pre-build step don't need DLL's to be dragged along with them.
But a slang enabled exe can be 350k easy in release mode.
So what I've done, is endeavored to remove
A) the startup processing time of a slang enabled code generator tool
B) the dependency of said tool on the large CodeDOM Go Kit (which includes Slang)
How I did it was I went meta, and I wrote code that generates code that generates code.
In this case, I can take all the work that slang requires and prebake it, because now I can serialize those code trees to arrays as code, so now I don't slang to reinstantiate them.
It's confusing to explain but easy to use.
So now i have this tool, Deslang. Basically you can precook all the work slang did into the code, add your dynamism by visiting that tree that got from Deslang as a prefab array (no slang required, just one visitor file) and add in your dynamic arrays or whatever that you wanted to generate.
Normally
Build Tool -> Slang -> Output
Now
Build Tool -> Precooked Slang -> Output
The latter runs a lot faster, and the build tool binary winds up a lot smaller because i don't need to include all the CodeDOM Go Kit source code.
Works perfectly for rolex, where 80% of what Slang is used for is easing maintenance - it's just static code, but it's written in slang just so it can be language agnostic and not force me to manually build a codedom.
Point is this is is clever. Rolex is 200k !! smaller and lightning fast now.
