Fri, 21 Nov 2008 17:08:42 -0500

The FTP site containing downloads to the Wonderware installers is a little difficult to find, but it is publicly available. You can download the full InTouch HMI, Industrial Application Server, and other related packages here: ftp://ftp.west.wonderware.com/Wonderware/ Alternatively, you can download files from their PACWest website, although these downloads require a login and password. Either way, you can [...]

Atlanta Startup Weekend 2 - Day One [Joe Uhl]

Sat, 08 Nov 2008 01:26:06 -0500

We wrapped up the first evening of Startup Weekend a short while ago, so far has been a good deal of fun. I wasn’t at the first one but I think the new format makes sense and will result in a better weekend with more people being able to contribute. The rounds of voting [...]

finally [multum im parvo]

Wed, 05 Nov 2008 10:50:00 -0500

I always thought I understand `finally' in the context of exception handling in either Java or Python. Now, I'm not sure I really understand it. Riddle: What does the following print?

def f():
try:
return 1
finally:
return 2
print f()

Ah ... never mind ... I understand it again now. It means: finally.

I Voted for Change [Weblog of Titus Barik]

Tue, 04 Nov 2008 15:08:01 -0500

“The true test of the American ideal is whether we’re able to recognize our failings and then rise together to meet the challenges of our time. Whether we allow ourselves to be shaped by events and history, or whether we act to shape them. Whether chance of birth or circumstance decides life’s big winners and [...]

Microsoft Windows Vista [Weblog of Titus Barik]

Tue, 04 Nov 2008 12:15:36 -0500

After trying this operating system for two years and giving it a fair shake, I have come to the conclusion that Windows Vista is pretty much the worst operating system ever designed. I laugh at you, Magenic.

I do not fear failure. I only fear the “slowing up” of the engine inside of me which is pounding, saying, “Keep going, someone must be on top, why not you?” General George S. Patton

Atronix Engineering [Weblog of Titus Barik]

The timing could not have been better. I have accepted an offer from Atronix Engineering as a Project Engineer. They are located in Norcross, GA. Here’s a little bit more about them: Atronix Engineering responds to system integration demands for both factory automation and office automation. As a systems integrator we provide quality integration [...]

Last Day at Arch Chemicals [Weblog of Titus Barik]

Fri, 31 Oct 2008 17:12:53 -0400

As most of you are aware by now, today is my last day at Arch Chemicals. Looking back on the three years that I’ve been here, I sometimes surprise myself with what I’ve been able to accomplish. Some nice comments from co-workers for posterity: I was very sorry to hear of your resignation. [...]

Good Customer Service? [Joe Uhl]

Fri, 31 Oct 2008 15:12:50 -0400

Like many others who pursue careers in computer science I am a relatively cynical person and I have reached a point where I generally never expect good service - especially when not paying some premium for it. There are times when the free/included customer service is great and when that happens I am genuinely [...]
