    Wow it got quiet in here! Everyone must be out enjoying the weather. I just mowed the lawn for the first time. Almost passed out at one point. I mean, my head got light and things got dim. Came inside and had some water and rested a few minutes and I was good to go. It's not like it was hot out, either. We only hit a high of 66 F at 2:45 pm today.

    Hope that's all better now. The high temp here hit 85 F today...I'll trade you. ;-P

    ETA: I've heard that you can talk to plants. I mowed my lawn for the first time Monday, and I've been trying to discourage the grass from growing back. :)

    I always say, "I'd rather sweat than freeze!" But a happy medium is best. Have you met a happy medium? :lol:

    Yeah, I think the high outside of Baltimore, MD was 59 degrees today with all the clouds. I've been busy studying software development. So much to learn.. so many abstract concepts. It seems that that the local college I went to didn't teach me all the material that I want to know.

    edit: I didn't really have time to do some renders earlier today.

    lol! I think you're right - that was Peter O'Toole in the movie

    My desktop family are ponies and a betta fish. Sometimes he gets mad at me and I do not know why most of the time. Though when I tease him with a mirror he hates that.

    Dana

    IT related courses: Intro to Information Systems, introduction to networking, C++, Java 1 and 2, Oracle 1, Oracle PL/SQL. I did not learn any of the dot net or web services stuff, just the desktop software material with the exception of introduction to networking. So, I can create java programs that run under the JRE, but not a java applet over a network. My skills are outdated. The software engineering course was lousy because the book was terrible. I don't think I learned much.

    My mom thinks that I should've gone to a technical school instead of a business school. If you want any more details out the IT courses then I can post them later.

    You inherit from the Java Applet class, override the init() start() stop() and run() methods from that and remember to grab a graphics context if you need to from the client (normally) cos the server is probably headless :)

    I know that syntax is a bugger, but with C++ and Java, plus Oracle, you have a good basis there if you paid attention! Because the fact is simple...programming is programming. The basic concepts of logic and good practices are constant throughout any programming language. It's just getting to understand the syntax and the unique libraries of the particular language. Until things happened to me in 2006/2007, I could pick things up really fast. I worked on my AS in Computer Science at BCC in the early 90s, got it in 1993. There was one course in Assembly (yuk!), three accounting courses, one course that was the first time they had it on dBase (I already knew everything in it from working with FoxBase+ at the time, which was a better application than dBase, always a few steps ahead of them through the upgrades), two semesters of RPG-II, and three semesters of...COBOL. Wordiest language I've ever worked with. But as I said, the concepts of good logic and good practices are the same. You just have to get used to the syntax of the new language, and the libraries it uses. That's been the bugger for me. My site is my classroom for ASP.NET, with VB.NET and a little C#.NET, a little javascript and AJAX and, of course, SQL Server.

    Take some time to look at some sample code. Get yourself a free version of Visual Studio at the Microsoft site. It might be a little pared down, but you can still do a lot with it. I have Visual Studio 2010 Pro. You can also get SQL Server Express and SSMS and work with those on your computer.

    Actually, an Oracle job pays really well if you want to do that. You'd have to start in an entry level position, but even those pay pretty well from what I'm told. I wasn't impressed with Oracle. I went to Oracle University in Boston for several course, paid for by the company I worked for at the time (COMDEX/Key3Media), They had a new CEO and he decided that Visual FoxPro was dead (it was not) and old tech and wanted to use new tech. I told my boss it was going to be bad. I knew the users. They didn't like slow. When they replaced the custom VFP application with Oracle Financials it was terrible. One user came down to my office and told me that a process she does all the time that used to take 15 seconds to run in the VFP app, took 15 minutes in Oracle Financials!

    Anyway, if you want to learn the .NET stuff, do what I said. And check out these sites:
    Code Project Heavy focus on .NET tech, but other things too like HTML5 and others.
    4 Guys From Rolla A lot of .NET stuff there.
    Both sites have a lot of tutorials and downloadable sample code.
    SQL Server Central Name says it all. Lots of good stuff there, articles, forums, in-depth tutorials.

    Phew data backup iz intact, so far as I can tell - 850 GB how did it come to this? - without actually using it to restore. Feeling lucky so going to drop a new backup disk in and freeze this one - gah not much luck so far with new fangled 2TB drives so better push luck and drop a new drive enclosure in as well.

    Is funny but didn't realise how tired I got this week until stuff started working again, stress I guess (non complaint) :lol:

    eta well lucky lucky lucky network render only dropped 8 frames when it crashed and the motion caches seem intact so dont have to do it again wow
