You know food had influence on your dreams? 
Maybe this helps, imagine falling when trying to sleep. That way, adrenaline is created and you won't sleep, so no bad dreams.
And yes, after reading this, there's a good chance you dream about falling.

I just discovered a driver in System32\drivers named spaceport.sys. Now that's a cool driver name.
I assume it's for the storage spaces feature.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

It's probably from an application that calculates storage for Port wine

And right down the street, there's spacedump.sys. You know, the seedier side of Storage Spaces.

We had a hardware engineer with a penchant for cute acronyms. One board was named PIGLET, which was something like Printhead Inkjet Generator Link Electrical Transmitter, or something like that. This board was succeeded by the Selectable Width Fiber Transmitter, or SWiFT board.
A while back we detected a problem in the power-on startup logic on the SWiFT board. The firmware load would occasionally fail on a cold start (boot from power-up) but always succeeded on a subsequent warm start (Windows restart). We're in the middle of redesigning the hardware and didn't want to deal with a driver update, so I wrote a little program that runs at boot time. If it detects the firmware load failure, it issues a Windows restart.
This program is called SWiFTkick. :rim-shot:

Buon Compleanno, Carlo

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Is it just me, or are we caught in some software/hardware planned obsolescence?
With several new languages, frameworks, and hardware coming out every day, it's got me wondering.
Have the IT market software and hardware vendors saturated the market, and are trying to increase market share by bringing out minor and unneeded tweaks?
I am not talking about the consumers of IT and the increasing demand for developers.
On the language/framework front it seems like the "Tower of Babel".
I used to be able to keep up by running as hard as I can. But not anymore.
I guess I am just getting old.
