Shannon's Journal Discussion

[Shannon]

I bought 3 Kingston usb drive, each 8GB about a year ago. After a week to a month they all died one after the other. I guess I was "unlucky".
I'm always surprised by how much every brand fails even the most reliable and how the IT field is so unreliable.
There is always some kind of unknown bug that seems impossible to happen from time to time or something that isn't supposed to fail but fails. Which remind me that nothing is 100% reliable.
I saw some bugs that made me crazy when I was studying IT. I think it's a bit like poker, there is scientific rating to how much something is supposed to happen, some mathematics rules. But when it comes to reality those rules doesn't really works. By that I means how many times I have seen someone been "unlucky" and some that are almost always lucky.
Those probability rules are so unreliable.

There's no such thing as luck, but Karma is a law that encompasses absolutely everything here in our little reality simulation. Understanding it would be helpful to anyone,esepcially those trying to make serious life changes like I assume we all are.

But that gets into religious discussion, which of course we want to keep in the thread for religion.

Hey Shannon!

Done audio processing and onto something else? Just curious how things are progressing.

Sounds like you had a real beautiful time the other day. I've been there...after a few successive train wrecks I'd have to unplug and step back for awhile. It happens to everyone, especially if you're leaning on the gas HARD.

I'm not religious in the least, but I assume you're using the term 'religion' as an all inclusive descriptor for general metaphysical stuff,right? I understand.

Shannon will get it done. I will keep helping ;P

We really need our DMSI fix

Hopefully Ben will be able to get the links sorted quickly

The way it all went down, after some consideration, would be easily a billion-to-1 shot. I have a hard time believing that all those extremely unusual things happened, all in exactly the right order, and all on the same day, in the only way they could have happened to result in that specific outcome.

I can't say I know how to explain it, but I am very suspicious that it was "accidental", considering what all had to take place, in what time frame, and how... I could not have orchestrated that result better if I was a master villain.

RIP, MIR 2.1. We barely knew ye.

But when 6G is finished, MIR 3.0 will be born.

And backed up, and backed up, and backed up, and... I'll put a backup in my backup, so I can back up when I back up when I back up.

Anything that ties in with religion, leads to religious discussion or otherwise could result in religious flaming or wars... yeah.

It's terrible you lost that MIR V2.1 script, that's FAR worse than the DMSI issue that can be fixed.

I assumed that the script was in every copy of the program, so as long as you have a copy of the program, you're good. I guess it's more complicated than that.

The script is in every copy of the program. But it is intentionally made impossible to extract from the program or reverse engineer. Without the script word processor files, it's GONE.

It basically means I have to re-create months of intense work to get back to where I was.

Well holy shit...isn't THAT ironic...so well hidden in there it can't be brought out even by you.

I'm really sorry to hear that, Shannon. Take comfort in the fact that the upgraded version will likely change MANY people's lives. It should be a major difference maker, MIR V3. Amazing potential.

No human on earth has the ability to extract the script from one of my 5G or later subs.

Not even me.

Not even the most advanced supercomputer, or even all of the computers on the whole planet working together.

We still have the audio for 2.1, but I cannot use it to build 3.0 from. I must start over from scratch. Which will take me months. It was 2 weeks just to construct the CORE statement... one sentence that gives the prime directive of the program. One week of just contemplating how to do it... and one week of working with insane grammar.

Not looking forward to this... at all.

Which is why I am waiting for the 6G skeleton script. If I have to do it again, I might as well have that finished first.

[CatMan]

I remember you talking about the problem you had with the CORE thing. It seemed intense, lasted awhile trying to figure it out, even working on other stuff a lot when frustrated. I think it was the big reason why MIR V2(2.1) took so long. You mentioned it a lot, so clearly it was a serious roadblock, that you apparently found a way around somehow.

I hear you, might as well have full 6G ready for the next go around. It happens, Shannon. I've had very similar things happen to me. Admittedly, each time was during a time I was pushing a BIT too hard, not as much sleep as I should have had to do the work, and became a BIT more error-prone, acted rash, and poof, major problem that is unrecoverable, total nosedive.

I feel your pain. We're all human and make mistakes.

Hah 69 minutes for DMSI V3.0.1

"luck", I use that word because it's easier to understand.
