Development is just so rapid with C# in my experience. It was one of those things that let me see that Microsoft wasn't totally asleep at the wheel.

@kdfrawg There are people who are fond of COBOL. I try to avoid them.

@kdfrawg It's surprising because her thought process is as manic as mine.

Good news: It's Friday
Bad news: I get to spend it sleep-deprived and sick.

One of the things on tap for today is getting the company with the damaged MySQL database back up and running. The tech there is a young 20 something which is normally a bad omen. However, this kid is knowledgeable, polite and will stop you and ask questions if he doesn't understand something. In short, a pleasure to work with. It should go very easily.

Another is pulling data from an ancient database in Naples, FL to plop on a new server.

The remainder will be spent baby-sitting my boss in the warehouse because he has the attitude and stubbornness of a 16 year old and the body of an octogenarian. Yes, he was rushed to the emergency room seven days ago and kept overnight. Yesterday he was trying to carry the steel rear bumper of a F-350 3/4 ton pickup truck. Hence the babysitting.

Weekend plans are code, code and more code.

Nothing, yet. I'm thinking about re-directing one of my domains over here for blogging purposes.

Just simulator games I grabbed off Steam.

I give up…Two attempts to post that ridiculous shell script and it's a mess.

Too woozy to look up how to format it properly

Rather than nurse the cold I have coming on, I'm sitting here at 0245 working on some stuff.

I will pay dearly for this tomorrow.

That's funny because I had a similar thought yesterday. We made the mistake several years ago of placing some information within SugarCRM and it is glacial performance-wise. After looking up something I needed, I did some back and forth on here and it was blink-of-an-eye fast. (With SugarCRM, you can take a nap while waiting on a record lookup)

"Why is a blogging platform that is still firmly in beta and many thousands of miles from me orders of magnitude faster than a query from a server not 50 feet from my office?"

That and Quake II are all time favorites :)
