7 hours

October 26, 2007

I need 7 hours of sleep. I think my body’s tuned to that. That’s perhaps why I woke up at 11.30am today.Thank God the boss is always late. 

Today is Mac day

October 26, 2007

In honor of the launch of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, I’d be using my Mac for work today.Well actually, its more to get my TOR written out because apparently we have to submit one for our internship. I’m doing this also because I do have to prepare a Gantt chart for the client whose project I’m working on. 

sandwich

October 25, 2007

I knew I forgotten something this morning. My sandwich!

Yay

October 24, 2007

I’m really beginning to like this come-anytime-you-want attachment. Its been about 3 weeks and its been like that all along.

Anyways, just to report from all the news sources I usually check when I come in.

Leopard GM Build has been leaked. Gonna see if I can get my hands on it and avoid the rush to get Leopard.

Also, Google has started to enable IMAP access to gmail accounts. Finally this means I might just start using Mail.app for all my email needs.

Burn

October 23, 2007

Nothing starts the day better than the coke burn in your tummy.

the boss

the boss

As promised, a picture of the most awesome boss ever.

The “half” day.

October 22, 2007

I don’t know how to update my stats. I technically took a half day today.

At least it was worth it. Prestige launched just alright.

Oh, my boss takes a uber long route to get to the office from Raffles Place. I’m damn tempted to tell him that Tanjong Pagar is really nearer and less likely to cause him to break out in sweat. Still it ain’t a surprise that he perspires that much. The speed he walks for his height is insane.

* this just in: the boss has left the building.

GetSchema

October 19, 2007

With everything, you get better once you spend more time with it.

Now everything should route properly through the GetSchema method of ADO.Net 2.0. That would solve the problem of bloody OleDB being a pain in a but and using its own functions.

Subversion

October 19, 2007

Why no source control management systems other than Visual Source Safe, VS.Net 2005?!

Subversion rocks my socks. But not proprietary shit.

Inheritance

October 19, 2007

Okay. Object Orientation is cool.

Even though I’ve copied the code off someone because I’m lazy, I’m still seeing object orientation work its magic. Right now I’m working on a universal data access layer for the database transfer app. This is to facilitate syncing between SQL databases as well as the original idea of Access to SQL.

Once this is done, I’d probably move on to working on the more complicated part of moving whole databases using SQL Management Objects. I’ve a feeling for SQL to SQL sync. Its as simple as re associating variables.
