What's everyone working on?

While reading John's diatribes I just realised I have no idea what anyone's working on anymore. We have John Simmons doing WxF, Rex is into secret societies and I haven't done VBScript in ages. It's crazy. So how about a quick update so I can catch up?

I can't comment on everyone - but I am working on: As an employee - Win app: Clinical software for GPs - C# .net 3.5, WCF, vs 2005 (unfortunately 'designed' by morons) As self-employed - Web-application: for the jewelery industry - .Net 3.5, VS 2008 (designed by a genius) Job applications - PLEASE get me outta here!
If I knew then what I know today, then I'd know the same now as I did then - then what would be the point? .\\axxx (That's an 'M')

My employer is a Microsoft vendor, so I'm working on a cool ASP.NET site for The Mothership.

I've got something (that I find) interesting going: a set internal applications I've developed (using C# w/SQL Server) that we're using to print official ID cards for two major professional organizations in my state. After an ID card renewal cycle for these organizations, every member will be flashing cards printed by my application (this provides me a measure of geekly pride)! -Jay

My next attempt at world domination ( the fact I'm still trying tells you my past attempts have not been completely successful :doh: ) Actually, I'm turning one of my articles from '05 into a product. Nick

Today we poured the concrete foundations for my first solo substation design. So far, so good. The anchor bolts are squared within 1/8" of nominal positions, corner to corner, and I spec'd the steel structural parts with 1/8" over-size mounting holes. I'll know whether I still have a job about a week after the steel arrives on or about the 25th of this month. I guess you could say I've been focusing on hardware lately... :-D

Cross platform development with Qt, VTK, ITK and several other 500K+ line libraries. Way too much to learn. And VTK has poor documentation. There are 2 books that are well written but very incomplete and the generated documentation is not much more value than reading the header files. The download does have many examples though. But how much code can you read when you are behind time constraints?? BTW, all this is for a 3D medical imaging viewer with integrated cancer detection tools that we are developing in house. My duty is to put it all together and design the UI.

This past week I've been working on my 4wd, the kid's quad bike, my whipper snipper and the camper trailer. Of course, none of that pays any bills, so to make money I have been working on the usual stuff - business analysis, system development/maintenenance using VB.NET, ASP.NET, Access, SQL Server (in no particular order) and doing a gazillion SQL Server data extracts and uploads for one client who's busiest this time of year. In the near future I will be working on what I want to do next in life (which is proving the most challenging), getting our Ju Jitsu club up and running again, getting the kids back to school and getting fit(ter than I am now).

Did you end up with a reasonable price? It was the steel you were having problems costing, wasn't it? It is a while ago since you posted about it and my memory ain't what it was. :)

I'm part of an elite group in our government working to cover up the ensuing massive alien invasion of planet Earth. My most recent project involved my trying to get Windows Vista to install on their alien hardware, with the thought that it would most certainly slow them down. Unfortunately, I was only told far too late, that when they said "Alien" hardware, they really meant like, extraterrestrial stuff, and not Alienware. Sucks, all that work down the drain, but I did bring that machine to a grinding halt. So now I'm working on our "plan B", which primarily involves gathering together a group of unsuspecting individuals that will be drugged, loaded onto a spacecraft and blasted into space, while in suspended animation for the next 1000 years. We hope, after the eventual invasion and destruction of the human race, they will be able to make it back to Earth, and recolonize the planet. Which reminds me, Chris, I need your home address, so I can, uh, send you a package. I've already sent packages to a Professor John Robinson, Maureen, Judy, Penny, Will, Major Don West and Dr. Zachary Smith ... you're next on this list.

At 8" wide, 24 lbs per running foot; yeah, it's impressive. And it's hard as steel! :-D

Well, my mouse-clicking finger was getting a little stiff, so I thought I should give it something more challenging to do for a while to tone up the muscles.

Yup. It worked out to about $46k for the distribution structure, which is all we're going to build in this phase. It's 62' x 16', with a height of 18' to 21', all of I-beam construction, and a vendor we used previously bid about $80k, IIRC. I think we got lucky with the timing, in that all the vendors seem to be getting hungry in the new economy. Even the lead time dropped - from about 46 weeks to 24. If anyone's interested I'l try to post some pics as it goes up. Of course, the list of things I forgot is as long as my arm and growing. Ground clamps for the copper cable that binds all the pieces together, area lighting, metering cabling and conduits, and bog knows what else will turn up. Oh well, it's my first try. :sigh:
