If the benefits and taxes were reduced and labour laws changed so companies can hire and fire people, like in the US and UK, you get far more dynamic and productive economies. Look at the UK today, it has the best ecconomy in the world. Two years ago it was in the sh*t. Thats what a dynamic ecconomy can do, it can respond to changes in the market and adapt. It could be incredible, Catalunia, if it could do the same as the UK,

Once I spoke with one USA guy that was astonished when he knew about our system were one bad-or-not worker gets fired and get a lot of money as compensation... his first question was... but as a company owner... do you get "compensated" each time you hire somebody?
Only if we were not throwing this big amount of money each day towards Spain it would be much much better... imagine if what you are saying here would be also introduced... then probably we would start having the best music in the world as we could buy your musicians!

The US of course has the same system, and law, as the UK, since it is a UK off shoot. This difference, between the UK and the way France, Belgium, Spain etc run, is what really stands between the UK and continental Europe and why the UK can never use the euro. The ecconomies are just so different.
Job security in the UK comes from it being easy to get another job, provided your skills are marketable, and you usually get a good pay rise too. Of course if your skils arent wanted, then its tough titties!

Damn, the Spanish birth rate is very low! How will you maintain the populaiton, it must be shrinking rapidly!

Don't ask that please... don't ask that... imagine my wife reads that! 
Given the fact we have almost a 25% of unemployment is not strange seeing that nobody wants to have children...

Went to Spain (Madrid and Barcelona) for the first time last year... it was amazing. Hopefully I'll get a chance to go again some time.

Nice places for sure.
Spain is a nice place for tourists...

Funny, I thought your celebration was on the 23rd of June.
|
|
|
|
|
Not 23 but 24, the 23th of Juny is when we get drunk, jump on fire, dance...
|
|
|
|
|
If you get drunk, jump on fire, dance on the 23rd I wonder what you celebrate on the 24th? Being alive?
|
|
|
|
|
Almost!
Nah, 24 it's saint John, therefore my celebration, and the 23rd it's the solstice (+/-) and it's considered a witches and magic night (maybe this is for the alcohol).

I am thinking about the process of tracking Win Services that are developed by the company. The tracking information will go to a central location (database, text file, ...) and would include details such as: Name, location, Start/End DateTime, Current User, and any other details that may come up during the discussion.
This is coming from the fact I am working at a company that has several custom Win Services running across several servers and, dare I say, possible, local machines.
I have been tasked with modifing a Win Service that monitors an inbox on an Exchange server and process incoming emails. This service eventually moves the email from the inbox to another folder. The service is currently running in the test environment and moving the emails. This keeps me from testing my code, because the emails are being moved by the other service that is running "somewhere"
My thought is to create a class library that could be added to a Win Service that would allow this tracking to a central repository. Then create a UI for easy viewing of retime information for ALL custom developed services across the network.
Would love some input on this idea. I hope I gave enough details to get my thoughts across.

At one place where I wrote a bunch of Windows Services I baked that in from the beginning, with a central database table to contain configuration and some runtime info (last start, last stop, etc.); I don't know how you could add it to existing systems, especially if you don't even know which systems are running what to begin with.
|
|
|
|
|
My thought is to really push this moving forward with new services. As we go back and modify the older services we could add this.
If it works out well, maybe they will create a project to go back and modify the older ones. At least the critical ones.

You could use the WMI to scan the network list out all of the services on every machine. Little parsing to figure out a common list of normally installed services to expose the random creatures?
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.
|
|
|
|
|
Good call.
I did put together a WMI query to find the services. The goal is to use this to get started with the tracking process. Then use the class library in each service to "register" and/or "unregister" themselves from a central repository.

Now, I already got banned for the stream of jokes I posted. Just today someone is going through and marking them as spam/abuse.... even though it's old news.
Curious now if I could get rebanned for it. I'm not so sure that should be an automatic process.

Here's an idea.... Stop posting things that could get you banned?
Just a thought.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is
|
|
|
|

I did. This is old news, otherwise I wouldn't bother saying anything about it.

Send an email to the webmaster/Chris and team, if you are concerned about someone giving you a hard time.

I'm not sure, but I think as far as abuse votes go it's one sock-puppet-one-vote against the member, no matter how many different messages the SP marks as abuse. Certainly, I haven't noticed serial abusers or spammers disappearing any faster when I abuse vote a dozen or more of their "offerings".
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Time does not heal bad jokes, once a stnker, always a stinker. So somebody just stumbled on to your old jokes and they were found to be still offensive.
Curious though, how is it you got banned but the jokes remained?
It was broke, so I fixed it.
|
|
|
|
|
I'm not sure.
I don't really mind the votes, I just remember that the banning is automated. Seeing a few of the posts got the vote, It got me thinking if it could happen again.

You want for us to test that out for you?
