Cable Forum - The Happy Thought Thread

I-rish you a very nice place to live,
I-rish God's greatest gifts he'll give.
I-rish you health, and wealth, and more--
I-rish your smilin' face were at my door!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

I experienced something that shows the power of walking away from problem and coming back to it.

I've been developing a new system for work, and was working on fixing one particular bug on Friday afternoon, and all day monday. Couldn't see anything wrong, but one script was returning HTML files when it should have been returning PDF or Word files.

Couldn't do anything yesterday or this morning as the server was off line. Came back to the problem this morning, took one look at the script and saw that the script was returning an extra X in the HTTP headers sent to the browser that was confusing it.

Now that's no fun at all. I shall ignore what you have just said and keep the image in my mind of you sitting atop the nest of eggs. :D

it's the subliminal suggestions I have been sending your way.

You will send a photo of the eggs as they hatch, You will send a photo of the eggs as they hatch, You will send a photo of the eggs as they hatch, You will send a photo of the eggs as they hatch, You will send a photo of the eggs as they hatch, :D

It's amazing how stepping away from an intractable problem can provide the answer. I like to take a timeout and go and walk in the countryside for an hour or two. Clears the mind and somehow the problem will often solve itself.

I wish that theory would work for me - it must be a Bloke thing :(
Mebbe I need more than 2 hours :D

May you have:
A world of wishes at your command.
God and his angels close to hand.
Friends and family their love impart,
and Irish blessings in your heart!
