Thanks, Ryan, that is a very educational graphic overview !
“I'm an artist: it's self evident that word implies looking for something all the time without ever finding it in full. It is the opposite of saying : ‘I know all about it. I've already found it.’
As far as I'm concerned, the word means: ‘I am looking. I am hunting for it. I am deeply involved.’” Vincent Van Gogh

Sometimes I want access to the program foler so bad. And by so bad I mean "really bad". I need to uniquely identify the App Data folder for each application which uses my library. Oh, what a joy. I need a GUID provided by the application which uses the library, otherwise the parameters (which are different for the several apps that may use my library) are stored into the exactly same file, overwriting each other and causing a big chaos.
I don't really like this GUID solution, but there we go.

In Sweden a reporter called Robert Aschberg has collected stories about people the is harassed by trolls that comments anonymously online. So he hunts them down, finds their identity and ask them questions about what they have said. (You can watch from the first episode here[^],
A trailer for the show (in swedish) can be watched here[^].
I'd say thats an interesting take on the situation of online bullies...

Thats about the group that found the trolls. It should be mentioned that the some of the people that are "hunted" have said things that could lead to criminal charges.

Yet they still can be trollies and/or brownies. But I got your point.

I still wonder how all this trolling happened. Lot of passive aggressive people I guess 
|
|
|
|

Let's continue to call them trollies (Singular: Troll[e]y). Sounds cute, somehow

Brilliant! And their trolley is filled with hateful things (or sh*t)...
|
|
|
|
|
But watch out that the trolley doesn't accidently turn into a red bucket!

Won't work, these people are already off their trollies!

...of my birthday. Did absolutely nothing today. Slept the day off. Will have to work on Saturday or Sunday to keep work on track. Future Mrs. Wife got annoyed with me sleeping whole day. But she is travelling so not much to worry.
Watching FIFA ceremony now.

Oooh, a quick happy birthday then.

Thanks. One more year and I will be in 30s.

Good lord, I have T Shirts older than you. I was going to rock concerts before you were born.

I had a meeting with a co-op yesterday and stated, correctly, that I had been using the software system (OSISoft PI) since before he was born...
Yes, I feel old.

Recently, I was asked to work with this beast and integrate it with our system (not really code anything we have it already; but just to face clients and get things done). I think I was smart enough to run away. I am already working struggling with SAP and I have no interest in getting into yet another unknown territory.

The PI system I understand; written by developers for developers... well constructed. Privately owned so able to maintain integrity.
Dealing with 'software architects' when working on an ERP system integration... not so much fun.

I know PI ProcessBook very well. Did a lot of integrating that back in the 90s.

I was once able to tell a programmer that had been assigned to look after an amazingly complex but well written, reliable and efficient software suite that I had designed it, written it, tested it, installed it for many big clients and then updated and expanded it several times before he was born! I had even documented it: Technical Guide, User's Guide and Management Overview (single page, small words).
I definitely felt old that day.

Just in time. Thanks Mike.
