We Do Not Use Blogs: November 2005

We Do Not Use Blogs. Wednesday, November 30, 2005. Could someone please explain Baselines to me? I see the word baseline used a good deal these days. Enterprise Manager or Grid Control (or whatever it's called this week) either has or will have the ability to collect baselines, I'm told. My second problem with baselines is that I cannot see the usefulness of them, but that could easily be because of my first problem. Here's my background for putting this topic forward:.

We Do Not Use Blogs. Tuesday, November 21, 2006. The Russian Drinking Contest. It's a story I've forced Tuomas Pystenen (Oakie of Deepbase, Finland) to tell again and again. So his Finnish collegues on a project many moons ago were invited to a party with their Russian project counter-parts. Tuomas was the only one not too much drunk when the Finns arrived in Russia by train, so he was picked by their Russian hosts for the drinking contest. Posted by Moans Nogood at 5:19 PM.

We Do Not Use Blogs. Saturday, September 02, 2006. Too long ago, I was making salsa together with one Cary Millsap and Miracle's very own Torben Holm (who has the best hair in all of Miracle), and with Mario Broodbakker and Frank Ives sitting at the oak table drinking beer. We made several pots of the salsa, and they all turned out well - but different. So we decided to write down the strength of each batch on the lid of the small glasses we put it in. But back to the fateful evening when it was made in ...

We Do Not Use Blogs: December 2005
http://wedonotuse.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
We Do Not Use Blogs. Wednesday, December 14, 2005. When I talk to customers with performance problems, I ask these two questions:. 1 Is everything slow, or is it just specific stuff like a form, a report or a job (Cary Millsap would call it a Business Function, I think :) )? 2 Has it always been slow or did it just start? 3 Do you know what changed? To be safe, you might want to 10046 (perhaps it should be called Deep-six when it's level 12.) two or three such typical thingies to be sure. Monday, Decembe...

We Do Not Use Blogs: July 2006
http://wedonotuse.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
We Do Not Use Blogs. Monday, July 24, 2006. As some of you have noticed, I've been training for the World's biggest march, the Dutch Nijmegen 4-day event. My team is a 33-member, Danish military one, and a couple of them were preparing to get their 30year medal down there - an incredible feat. But after the first day, the whole thing was cancelled for the first time ever - well, it wasn't held at all from 1939 to 1945, but cancelled after it was started? He had forgotten to eat (not drink) enough, and ha...

We Do Not Use Blogs. Friday, February 03, 2006. My friend Lex died 1st of Febrary, 2006, at 1600 hours CET. He asked to see a few friends before the final shutdown abort, and James Morle and I flew in on the Sunday before and visited him in the hospital. After 90 minutes of splendid conversation about things past, present and future we hugged and said goodbuy. And always with a friendly, positive attitude and a sharp mind. My best wishes for Lex' family. Posted by Moans Nogood at 10:00 PM. We Do Not Use.

We Do Not Use Blogs. Tuesday, May 09, 2006. Right So I'm here in Scotland. I have eaten. I have drunk. I have been to various public and private bathrooms. It's all the same: There are separate outlets for hot and cold water. The two outlets are spaced a good ways from each other. So what do the Scots (and the English) do? I can come up with a number of suggestions:. 1 They always wash their hands in very cold water. 2 They always wash their hands in very hot water. Which one is it? Links to this post.

We Do Not Use Blogs. Friday, August 11, 2006. Miracle Scotland, RBS and a trolley. Then, of course, they sent the trolley though again, this time with the weels pointing upwards. Very funny. Our bottle of water was not allowed through security, even when I offered to taste it. We had to empty it and throw it away. Fortunately, in the future it will probably not be possible to inform anyone about delays, since the mobiles are in the check-in luggage. 1 Louis Vuitton (spelling? 2 Technologies to make it po...

We Do Not Use Blogs. Tuesday, January 17, 2006. Itanic according to Doug Rady. I guess not too many of you know Doug Rady, but he's one of those guys who can understand very technical stuff, write so that it can be understood by others than Einstein, yet remains open to new ideas and knowledge. He has worked in several companies, but especially in Oracle Development, and he knows people and reasons for things heading the way they are. Itanium cannot compete with Opterons (or most Xeons) for. If you need ...
