It was only a week ago that I discovered that Vangelis had passed on a couple years ago. 
The difficult we do right away...

Last night, I prayed to God for zero interest installments for the furniture I am about to buy.
"Zero interest, please God!" I beseech my god.
Today, Catherine whom I confessed my love to yesterday, came over to my desk to tell me she has zero interest in me and I better leave her alone.
God did answer my prayer, but it was not what I asked for.

Be careful what you pray for; you may get it.

The lesson is upon beseech of the Lord be specific. Then there is that business something to do with the "Power of Positive Thinking". Good Luck w/ Catherine.

I had an article open in the online editor. I was saving periodically but still, I had entered quite a bit of content since the last save.
Fortunately before I attempted to save again I opened another tab looking for a link to a previous code project article to use in my latest. codeproject.com responded with a 503 error and did so for the next several hours.
...with my editing tab open, and me praying to the gods of logic that nothing goes wrong.
Gotta feed the server hamsters, guys! 
Edit: Just saw Chris's message about the outage. That's unfortunate that people are terrible.

For my study, I need to get a complete stock historical data of bethlehem steel company.
The only way is to manually collect them from old Wall Street Journal.
Is there any public library to recommend?

No idea why anyone would provide that for free. I googled with the following and first couple of results did not seem to be free.

only university libraries carry such materials now...

So the company I contract with has drunk some sort of Kool-Aid and whoever has decided Visure ()[^] is the solution to all their problems. I've dealt with requirements tracking for the past 45 years, and my feeling is this is a throwback to the waterfall method.
For you youngsters, the waterfall method embraced the religion of making sure you knew 100% what you needed to do before doing anything. Insert lies, inuendo, and self deception, time to write code, build a plane, etc. The waterfall method's major fallacy is that you assume the customer knows what they want.
So, anyone have any exposure to this system? What's fascinating is that the requirements group, and the design group hare tripled in size, and the s/w group are evaporating. Hmm, consulting opportunity. lol

Looks like another effort by non-software types to convert software development into a "crank the machine" operation where the individual cogs don't matter.
