Headhunting (Oct 14 2003 02:22 GMT) - So I've been out of work for a while, and I've gone on a few interviews, and talked to a few recruiters about various positions. A few months back, I applied to a web position off of Careerbuilder.com. 30 minutes later, while in the car, I get a call from the recruiter who posted the position. We chat for a bit and he says he's going to present me for the position to the hiring company. |

- The RIAA has slowly altered the environment so that relatively efficient systems like Napster were killed, opening up a niche for more decentralized systems like Gnutella and Kazaa. With their current campaign against Kazaa in full swing, we are about to see another shift in network design, one that will have file sharers adopting tools originally designed for secure collaboration in a corporate setting. |

Nice day (Oct 14 2003 02:18 GMT) - It was in the low 70s here today, probably for the final time this year, so Scott and the girls decided to drive out to the "big park" (as opposed to the "small park" just blocks away from our house) and feed the hoard of ducks and seagulls. I was trying to finish laundry and the final preparations for the girls' party on Saturday, so I stayed home. They were only gone for about a half-hour, but Scott said they had a great time; pics are available here. Addie was imitiating the gulls and tried to fly across the park. |

- To expand on my earlier comments on Chris's book about the Applications and Settings chapter here are the issues I spotted (BTW, don't let this put you off buying the book, its a good book, I'd still recommend it) Single Instance Apps via a named Mutex Chris outlines a solution using a named Mutex to detect multiple instances of an application trying to start, and points out that there can be issues when running under terminal services, however the particular problem that Chris outlines (same user with multiple Terminal Server sessions going) doesn't exist, because the mutex names are bound to different scopes, as described in detail in the Platform SDK docs for CreateMutex (and equally completely missing from the .NET docs for the Mutex class), you can prove this to yourself with a simple demo. using System ; using System.Threading ; |
