Tim's Tip of the Day
|
| The learning process involves learning from the mistakes that one makes. Unfortunately
the whole idea sounds good but so often we are inclined to lock down a routine or
behaviour and often repeat it bit by error filled bit. This is especially true with
computer software that can lead to disaster compounded upon disaster. The sign of
serious trouble about to occur is the escallation of problems. One minor glitch leads
to a failed minor correction that leads to a bigger glitch followed by a more extreme
remedy. Before you know it your only solution is reformatting your hard drive.
So before not so good leads "well that's it!" pause, take a walk do something
to break the slide to doom. Better yet, call an expert. |

Kevin's find of the day
