Yeah, beautiful weather when rising the Stok Kangri, just a little sick at the beginning of the treck because of altitude illness, getting nausea and vomiting during the first three days: sure, directly sent at 5000m, I never saw such acclimatation, even in Peru or Nepal.

158 mails sent, and probably two times more to make sure every recipients would read it...

Yesterday, we (I and one my colleague, actually my former and soon-again-to-be boss) invited our beloved co-workers and pro. favored contacts for a leaving drinks. So many people, reflections of finally not so many years. But what years ! Man !
Paris, Tokyo, London ,and then the merger between Credit Lyonnais and Credit Agricole, back to Paris. So many people left (for as many different destinations !) and so many new hired to compensate or launch our lastest critical P-1 project (no, not this one, THIS one. Stop being silly ;o)  ).
So this was probably the last time so many people from here will have to actually LISTEN to what I had to say.
In two days from now, I'll bid all of them farewell. Oh, my sinking heart... When I dreamt it would be a life-long experience...
For the best or the worst, as in any union and split-up, ...

This blog entry is certainly the last before taking some holidays in Ladakh (Indian Himalaya), from 11th July to 28th July. But not the last post on this site: I will surely publish some resources before my departure.

During my absence, I will give administrator rights to Guillaume Leroy, in order to maintain a good reactivity on all subjects, from user registration to posts on forums.

Concerning the trip in Ladakh, I hope that I will have better weather than last year, in April 2006, in Nepal, when I attempted to reach the Mera Peak (6476m), but forced to turn back at the base camp (4900m), due to 3 days snow tempest. We got no news from people blocked at high camp (5500m). T ...

Quite done. After looking for the right DNN modules that could give me a good looking on articles, I discovered and choosed the Help one. It does not permit to separate articles from different authors - note sure, to be tested - , but the navigation tree gives a good feeling.

Posting articles is quite easy too: just need to edit them with MS Word, copy them in clipboard and paste them  in the Rich Edit control provided with DNN.

I just get some problems with the headers and formatting. Inserting pictures from Winword should be manually done.

No, I am not joking and did neither eat some LSD pills or other medicaments, nor dring too much alcohol. Yesterday, I have no time to post the usual blog, because of thieves in the apartement of my above neighbour. Imagine that, at about 2h00 am in the morning, you are drinking some water. Suddenly, I heard some noises in the above apartment of mine, and my neighbour crying "Thief! thief!"..

Leaving my glass of water on the bar, and running in the upstairs trying to catch the thief. What a beautiful night!

Ooops, why ice axes? Because I took the ones I usually use in Alpen for ice climbing, in case of...

Good night!

The web site should appear at the top of searches. This is not the case. So, launching an AdWord campaign on UK, contacting all people working on Sophis, by sending them personalised messages, just to refer the site.

Making some advertising on other financial sites, it takes quite a lot of time...

1h10am, it's time to go to bed.

Yes, I got it, it runs under Windows Vista!!!

It was quite a little hard to get performance counters under this OS, because I turned the UAC off on my computer. When getting the security COM impersonation, there was no error, but without elevating my executable explicitely under administrator rights, I could get some WMI informations like the the list of processes, the OS version, but memory information: NO. And the error was quite difficult to debug: when executing the query, I got no error, but when parsing records using the IEnumerator::Next method, no record was returned...

Pfff..

Yesterday, no blog, because I tried to build a resource that I wanna post. The only problem was that I get few days ago a computer with Vista installed on it....

But what a big s... this OS!!!

I will never understand why now OS are installed with as much securities, event if we are not connected to Internet!! As developer and administrator, I am now always be requested for permissions, even if I have administrator rights, event if I turned off this big s... of UAC and so on.

Thanks to journalists and psychopaths, we can anymore do what we want on computers. Now, when you buy one machine, you are quite ready to depose it on some piece of furniture as decoration. But USE IT, NEVER!!!

So, for this resource, it is quite using GetProcessMemoryInfo that is using so ...
