Horoscope for Software: March 2016

February 29th, 2016

The first decade of the month exhibits software complexity especially with weak links. Software updates should be scheduled after the 18th. During the second decade your bosses may turn their attention to software. The end of the third decade is good for software RPC across cultural borders, but beware that some software may pretend it is from clouds.

  • Days of possible critical problems: 8, 9, 16, 17, 26, 27
  • Days of unfortunate computation: 4, 5, 12, 13, 21, 31
  • Days of good enough software behavior: 6, 7, 14, 23, 24
  • Fault-free days: 1, 2, 10, 11, 18, 19, 28, 29

Horoscope for Software: February 2016

January 31st, 2016

For most of the software, February is a good month. However, for some software, the second decade of the month can bring internal software conflicts caused by past uncoordinated coding. The third decade may exacerbate existing conflicts because of upgrades from external software consultants. Don’t panic though, fresh and original ideas from software support teams may resolve most problems by the end of the month. After the 26th of February, some software may experience a periodic freeze.

  • Days of possible critical problems: 1, 9, 10, 18, 19, 28
  • Days of unfortunate computation: 5, 6, 14, 23
  • Days of good enough software behavior: 7, 8, 16, 17, 25, 26
  • Fault-free days: 3, 4, 11, 12, 20, 21

Horoscope on Software: January 2016

January 2nd, 2016

For most of the software, the year 2016 starts well. However, we should be more rational with software use and do not get involved too much with flashy, shiny software with a lot of special effects. Before the 20th, you better finish planned software installations. At the beginning of the 3rd-decade software may experience sluggishness and problems with surrounding execution environment. Between 21st and 26th software may experience resource consumption spikes. Some software upgrades may have been unnecessary and may require rollbacks. During that time software faults are possible that will be escalated to management level, and even cause human traumas.

  • Days of possible critical problems: 4, 5, 14, 22, 23
  • Days of unfortunate computation: 9, 10, 18, 27, 28
  • Days of good enough software behavior: 1, 3, 11, 12, 20, 21, 29, 30
  • Fault-free days: 6, 8, 16, 24, 25

Horoscope on Software: December 2015

December 1st, 2015

This month is very important for the future of your software. Software potential to solve problems is very high up to the 5th of December. The end of December is less fortunate for software. Many planned software installations will progress but with some additional efforts. Between 10th and 18th of December you may expect some software conflicts with their environment. Despite that, do not postpone new software installations because software changes may expand your perspectives for 2016.

  • Days of possible critical problems: 7, 8, 17, 18, 26
  • Days of unfortunate computation: 2, 4, 12, 14, 21, 22, 31
  • Days of good enough software behavior: 5, 6, 15, 16, 24
  • Fault-free days: 1, 10, 11, 19, 20, 28, 29

Horoscope on Software: November 2015

October 25th, 2015

This month your software needs quiet installation regime. Lower down your expectations of software quality to avoid unnecessary uninstallations that may further exacerbate existing software conflicts. After 16th the collective software behavior may worsen as old software conflicts may resurface.

  • Days of possible critical problems: 2, 10, 12, 20, 21, 28, 29
  • Days of unfortunate computation: 5, 6, 15, 16, 24, 25
  • Days of good enough software behavior: 8, 9, 17, 18, 26, 27
  • Fault-free days: 3, 4, 13, 14, 22, 23, 30

Software Numerological Breakthrough

July 2nd, 2015

For 8 months, since our previous post, we were calculating the worst time to run Software. Finally, it came to us that the worst time is actually BAD time, or more precise, 0xBAD time which is either 49 hours 49 minutes or 49 minutes 49 seconds. If it goes past that time interval still running then it is 124 days 13 hours. Please notice either execution symmetry 49-49 or the presence of the number 13. Hope, you now update your system restart schedules.

Birthdays and Higher Dimensions

October 8th, 2014

Having experienced a birthday the previous month I came to the following interpretation of a coming of a certain age. It involves multiple dimensions. Only with the 29th birthday you reach your first dimension (1D). You reach your second dimension with the age of 45 (2D). With your 61st birthday you become fully 3-dimentional person. You become 4D only at the age of 77. Mathematicians say that things get wild at 4D (*) but you don’t get the same at 5D (93) and 6D (109) and further dimensions.

(*) The Wild World of 4-Manifolds

The Meaning of Cloud

January 19th, 2012

Cloud is an exciting discussion topic nowadays so it is an imperative to understand what it really means. The deep meaning surfaces when we apply reversing to it and get duolC. We interpret it as dump of leaking Computer (or long Computation if you prefer). Some would also argue that a defect crept in into dualC (means dual computer as clouds always involve more than one computer).

The Meaning of Window Messaging

January 9th, 2012

Happy New Year, 7DC, The Year of 7 December Crashes!

This morning a revelation came to me about the deep meaning of WM_xxx messages. Based on the reflection theory that humans mediate star influence on software behavior we interpret WM as Woman-Man relationship (or Women-Man, Women-Men and Woman-Men in case of multicasting). This organically and naturally explains many messages such as WM_ERASEBKGND and WM_PAINT. Looking forward to your own examples of woman-man send and post messaging!
