My main computer is playing up again…. I am just rebooting it now. Windows is SLOWLY shutting down and will then slowly restart. Good old windows. VisualBasic.Net was crashing again… And that is a good pointer that I need to reboot the machine. I do not like restarting machines. You should not have to restart a machine if it is operating correctly, except to replace the core kernel of the operating system. That says sometimes it is needed.<\/p>\n

Windows just seems to need rebooting at times. As programs get more complex, it takes longer to debug the software. Leading to problems. And software interacts. Meaning that a program that crashes is likely to cause other things to crash… Or more correctly more likely to cause other things to crash than a working program. <\/p>\n

OK… On rebooting windows things do not seem to work much better… Seems that when I leal with an ‘ImageList’ the program crashes soon after. 10-20 crashes later I magage to get the changes done and saved, maning that the program is now stable. And I have uploaded it for the client to play with. With the exception of some Web stuff, I think that this program is almost finished. <\/p>\n

10 Years of the SMH on the Web<\/h2>\n

The Sydney Morning Herald has now been on The Web for about 10 years. Would you believe that I published my first HTML page about the same time. Time really does fly. You can read more about it on the SMH<\/a> WWW site<\/p>\n

It is also 40 years since Gordon Moore proposed Moore’s Law. There is a story about it on Yahoo<\/a>. It links to the original article he wrote so many years ago. The world has changed a bit since then. One comment from the article was that at one point in the 1950’s the transistor cost $5.52 each. Now you can buy a billion of them for about a dollar. That is a huge price difference. <\/p>\n

In some other technology news, Yahoo<\/a> is also reporting that the Sistine Chappel will be jammed from Cellphones for the Papal Election.<\/p>\n

Music:<\/h2>\n

Hoodoo Gurus with ‘I want you back’. Cool tune… You can find the Lyrics<\/a> here. They were not what I expected when I started actually listening to them…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
