Thanks for the try gentlemen. :)


I'm trying to understand how using a dispatch barrier on a write op prevents a race condition. It seems to me like converting the queue from concurrent to serial for the write, still means the paused threads can be using a stale value once concurrency is restored. But, heck I'm a chemist. What do I know about threads, processor clock cycles, etc, LOL.

I believe, you are a general genius. :):):)

Ooch, sounds like you need a programmer for IOS with applications best on assembler or even better inline machine language (prefarable in hex code) for C combined low level functions.

[OLChemist]

Don't even say assembly language to me. And any form of programming requiring a hex editor is evil, LOL.


I've been hitting the programming blogs this afternoon. I'm an old curmudgeon. I have socks that are older than these guys. I have a little trouble taking someone seriously when I can smell the Clearasil over the internet, LOL.

I will say teenage computer geekdom has advanced considerably, since my days hanging out in the basement with my boyfriend and a TRS-80, writing computer games in Basic. Mind you the games still do the same things. The graphics have just gotten much better, LOL.

Trs 80 sounds awful familiar. I had a commodore 64 and 128 and the little trs 100 that the news people would carry to remote places to do stories and send them to editor by phone line

My first Computer was a C 64 and there have been a good number of games to play with that little digital machine. That is a very long time ago.

Venison and wild rice

1 c dried wild rice;
4 c water or stock;
1/2 tsp salt;

1 lb ground venison;
2 c baby portabello mushrooms, sliced;
1 med onion, diced;
2 Tbsp butter;
1 tsp dried sage;
1/2 tsp marjoram;
1/2 tsp thyme;
1/2 tsp rosemary;
salt;
black pepper;
1/2 c grated parmesan cheese.

Bring the stock and rice to a boil. Add the salt, cover and turn down to a bare simmer. Cook the rice until tender, roughly 45 mins. Drain any excess liquid. (This is for cultivated wild rice. Parched and treaded, wild gathered rice cooks differently.)

In a large skillet over med heat, melt the butter. Add the mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes. Salt to taste. Remove the mushrooms from the skillet. Add the onion and cook until translucent. Add the venison and herbs. When the venison is cooked add the mushrooms and rice. Mix. Salt and pepper to taste. (Under salt since the parmesan is salty.). Top with cheese.

This is killer with roasted acorn squash.

I appreciate the prayers, everybody. Still not back at work. I'm trying to get a follow up appointment with a cardiologist. It's not easy when you are too poor for ACA and have to do self pay. I'll get there eventually. I'll check back in when I can.

[OLChemist]

Good to hear from you subs. I hope you are feeling better soon.

[ches]

Good to hear from you. Keep us informed.

I never wrote game programs

I was scrolling to the bottom of the page and these two lines got blended together in my head. I started visualizing BA and WD writing a program for shooting game....

I think my brain has melted while trying to fix the threading problem in my program.

[Broken Arrow]

Perhaps ice bags on the head can cool down the brain enough to prevent further melt down.
