What are you doing to manage your Christmas listing this year?
Me?
I just make a list, value balance it, and then buy the things. :)

On seeing the future
I stare A LOT into my crystal ball, trying to analyze the best course of action. I have found that having two calendars really helps.
One is high-level, and shows the course of the months, and my defined all-day events.
The other is weekly, and shows my commitments by the hour (or half-hour, depending)

Cutting your losses
When is the right time to cut your losses?
Generally, when the input exceeds the output over some period of time, right?
What about when it's a person? How then do you measure your staff development?
Lines of code?
Cases processed?
Amount of some-other-trackable number?
(i.e. Ambulance runs)

VHD Expansion
I couldn't use the tool & sequence mentioned in last weeks post.
That was a bummer, on the one hand, as I had to rebuild my favorite VPC image.
On the other hand, it's been cool, because I can now REALLY expand the VHD size.
