Today we fixed the problem at the project – the engineer came, changed the firmware of the device, and everything started working (now it gets ~11 seconds downtime). Now we’ll have to finish the full tests, with cards and terminals, and the project will be complete. I love when things are working :)

At FSA-members there is a discussion about a server – we have it, the problem is to find what to use it for, and where to place it. That’s not made easier by the size (8U) and the weight (70 kg)…

I fixed the 3ware driver at marla, following a discussion at linux-kernel, let’s see how will it behave.

In the evening me, my brother and my father celebrated my father’s birthday – now he’s 50 years old. We were at a quiet and calm place upstairs in “Tukan”, drank a jug of wine, talked, made some plans, and then I walked him to the taxi. The present was the book with the diary of gen. Nikola Mihov, and the last album of Kultur Shock, I think that he’ll appreciate them :)

One of the most important things that I’ve learned from him is that you have to take responsibility and do the job – when there is a problem not to ask “who’s guilty”, but “how can it be fixed” (or not to ask, and just fix it). A lot of people are doing exactly the opposite, and you can’t do any work with them…

Tomorrow I’ll be getting a better punching bag, and normal gloves, after which the hanging on the celling will follow (the neighbors surely will hear it :) ).
