| For 2023 - we are now fully retired from IT training. We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk. Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active! I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here)) |

Think before you send  Some useful (?) things to send somebody ...a) A pair of scissors, in one of those hard plastic wraps that the stores use to prevent their products being used before they are sold, and you need a pair of scissors to open. b) A decompression program, in a compressed format c) A software download, with the documentation for the unpacking and installation procedure included within the zipped / compressed file. d) The name of a file on their computer, rather than its contents e) A shrink wrapped software product, with a software license inside the shrink wrap which when you get to it says "by opening this product wrapping, you are agreeing to the terms of this license" (written 2008-09-02, updated 2008-09-04) Associated topics are indexed as below, or enter http://melksh.am/nnnn for individual articles Z801 - Pettifog[52] International awareness - (2004-09-17) [87] Too sittings - (2004-10-13) [90] Rude old people - (2004-10-16) [323] 1 in 48 steel - (2005-05-24) [439] You cant - (2005-09-08) [471] And it gets even better - (2005-10-21) [478] Watch what you wear - (2005-10-26) [519] New Road - (2005-12-06) [562] Smoke and mirrors - (2006-01-12) [600] It costs nothing to say THANK YOU - (2006-02-11) [638] A pile of sand?
