I hate Microsoft at times. Right now I have been battling IIS Web Server for about 45 minutes and I am getting nowhere. I hate that. The performance thankfully on Remote Desktop is good which means that I can work …
Right now I am monitoring the positions of some vehicles in Canada whilst I debug some software. This brings challenges, since it is not as if I can just catch a short flight to check things. My software seems to …
I have been doing a lot of programming this afternoon. I did not quite get the program finished… the one from this morning I mean. But it is almost there. I am waiting on acceptance on part of a quote, …

I did go for a run just before lunch. I only managed to run about 3.2 KM in a touch over 20 minutes. Given that this was just after noon, and the weather was slightly warm I am not too …
