Monitor still dead. At work, pushing to prod.
Still no luck with my monitor. There’s no fuse to be found inside. I’ll plug it in and try it again. I’m guessing it’s a gonner. Anybody know where I can get an Apple monitor with an ADC (Apple Display Connector)? Let me know.
We’re still in the middle of a production push at work. It’s started at 3 am. It was supposed to be done at least 2 hours ago. The difference between frontend and backend developers is that people see it when frontend developers screw up. When a backend developer botches their code, it can run for days without any real indication of the error, then, all of a sudden… poof… site’s down. (Or like today, it takes an hour to start each instance of the application.) It probably doesn’t help that our developers have little time to code, let alone test. Eventually this is going to catch up with us and bite us on the ass.

Shuttle tragedy. Cars. Computers. Monitor failure.
News is still rolling in about the loss of STS-107. I’m a little shaken by all of this, especially so soon after the anniversary of the Shuttle Challenger Tragedy. I’m suprised Brad is keeping it together so well. He tends to freak out about stuff like this.
Gina got her new Powerbook Ti. We now have matching computers (and cars). Sick. In unrelated news, the monitor (ADC 17″ digital CRT) connected to my Mac desktop puked this weekend. I’ll check the fuse tonight. If that’s all that’s wrong I’ll be happy. Otherwise, I’m looking at the purchase of a new digital (ADC) display. Feh.

Archived System Update
The Firebird and Impreza RS sections are in place. This means all of the car content is in place. I’ve added an updated (and improved) weather module to the right column of the homepage.
