It is now Friday night, and I thought I will update you all with my progress. <\/p>\n

Firstly, I had a meeting in the local chineese restraunt this evening. Being a friday night I guess it was bussier than normal – we were the last ones to leave at 8:15. To be fair another couple of people came in just as we were leaving, but I think they were having take away. This was in central Boondah. The other thing I noticed was that the local Westpac is located inside the furniture shop. I guess they are lucky to have a bank. The food was good, and the meeting went well… This meeting was not with my client, but with a new client who had decided that it was easier for him to drive up here to meet me rather than drive to Sydney!<\/p>\n

GPRS worked immediately in Boondah… My phone also worked, with a message being delivered almost as soon as we hit the main road. I was in a restraunt, and pulled the laptop out to give a demo of some software, and it just worked. This is how it should be! <\/p>\n

The programming today went well, although there have been issues with hardware and software. The software issues have taken some initiative to fix. What I found was that there was too much CPU time being taken working on useless data through the RS232 on the device I was working on, so I had to reduce the CPU time with some pre-processing. That gave me just the processing time I needed. There have also been hardware issues which needed to be investigated and dealt with. <\/p>\n

Thankfully the software seems to be working. I think I will need to work on some usability issues – things that I can fix without too many issues tomorrow. Not being a pilot I have to think what I would want if I was a pilot. And I know that I am not always right.. Some decisions are only a guess, and others are a trade off. <\/p>\n

That might need to be all for tonight… I am beginning to crash…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
