Seriously, you've got 4000 subdomains on a win2003 box with 8gb and have suffered with serious memory problems? I mean..... seriously? :-D Try halving that amount of subdomains. Or even reducing that to something reasonable say below 100, before trying again.. Then take a step back, and decide whether or not you know what your doing.

Now im not one for second guessing Xerox wanting to change the fundamental laws of the universe.. but.. The primary purpose of the DATA statement is to give names to constants; instead of referring to pi as 3.141592653589793 at every appearance, the variable PI can be given that value with a DATA statement and used instead of the longer form of the constant. This also simplifies modifying the program, should the value of pi change." - FORTRAN manual for Xerox computers ?????

Didnt Simon Cowell or JayKay beat the stig round the track once? i cannot believe they beat the german one round the track if it was him...

Its the Chinnor & Princess Risborough railway in Oxfordshire, Quite a nice one.. about 7 miles long. www.chinnorrailway.co.uk[^] They are hoping to go straight into Princes Risborough station in the near future pending any agreements with Network Rail..

Lucky devil.. it costs upwards of £700 for a driving experience day on a (uggh) diesel on a preserved railway near us, you got the experience for free!

SELECT NULL FROM Brain Where Engaged = 0

oops forgot to check if

brain != null

;-)

this piece of code might help you.

class brain
{
void engage(bool beforespeaking)
{
if (beforespeaking)
{
throw new stepawayfromthekeyboardexception();
}

}

}

void Main()
{
brain mybrain = new brain();
mybrain.engage(true);
mybrain.dispose();
}

Just logging into my work PC from home to check my emails to prepare myself for a "deluge" after having a few days on holiday.. havnt been arsed to turn the light on here at home and Sad it may seem but i have just realised i can type my password in to access the work vpn in total darkness, sign on to my pc and open my emails using the keyboard in total darkness...

Totally agree.. Ive been hit with that one before..

Holy Cow Im suprised the debugger didnt have a stack overflow when it saw this!

The more i look at it the more i think it should be in the "Coding Horrors" forum... :omg:

I have yes.. but an article usually contains a bit more text around it rather than two code snippets.. for a long time I have felt that this site requires a "Code Snippet" section or category, where these things could be put. Something that is valid but not quite enough to warrant being a full article.

Seriously.. How do these "articles" get through the content quality check? Check and Uncheck all Checkbox inside datagrid easily[^]

Dont worry im not walking unless I have something to walk into.. Got Family to support.. Mind u Volunentary redundancy is being offered to all in the business, but that is just paying the statatory minimum which is rubbish

I prefer the Dilbert Principle for some of the decisions here lately http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilbert_Principle[^]

Raise = no chance at the moment im afraid, due to economic conditions we are all being asked to take a pay cut plus loose other benefits.

I want a fresh challenge, I want the responsibilities that come with a management role, the thrill of building moulding and working with a team to achieve a goal. These days I feel i am reduced to being a code monkey sitting here typing code all day with the odd project to manage when there is one. I dont care what the job title is (it could be Chief Tea Architect) as long as it gives me the challenge and goals i need to fufill my ambitions.

Here I am in my job of 6 years, just been overlooked after applying for promotion because I am "Too good" at my current role (Managements words not mine). Has anyone ever had this in their job? Its frustrating for me as I have been here for 6yrs now and was assured the potential of career progression when I joined, I have about 10yrs experience in the field of Software Development, including Project Management And Team Leading and I feel now is the time to set myself a fresh challenge in a more managerial position. I am starting to wonder if its the company as people around me in other departments are getting management roles and then a few months later getting kicked out of those roles because they are useless.. The buzz word going round here is you are "moved into management if you are useless at your current job" The question is in these recession times do I stay? or do I go?

And now for something completely different.
