Work - Windows XP. Home - Windows 7. Measuring using task manager. I'm looking at each process and how much memory it uses MEM Usage or VM Size. Its a 32bit system, so after about 3GB of total memory usage it will start swapping. Lately its been doing too much of that because programs have been using up more and more memory - aka why does each chrome tab need 90MB or 200MB? FF takes up total of 246MB for some reason. Windows 7 does pretty well actually, my only beef is with LR4, but I don't complain about that because I'm handling ever bigger raw files. But work's PC is getting more and more annoying.

Did memory just become unlimited?
So I've noticed something recently - my computer from 2008 keeps running out of 4GB. Both at work and at home. Even after wasting my precious time to remove all autoupdaters and such shit. When chrome came out, it consumed the least amounts of memory. It made sense over IE or FF. Now chrome can easily eat up 1GB+ with only a couple of tabs. FF and IE now look nice. Thunderbird eats up more and more on daily basis (tho not fair as my folders are ~1GB on average). IntelliJ used to run w/ 256MB, but now 1GB is a must (again probably not fair since projects have grown since '08). Newer (old) MSSQL 2008 manager eats up a lot as well. Good old 2000 is not eating more though. So forth etc...
In school I've been taught memory is precious and we should conserve it. But I have this feeling someone somewhere has finally said - memory is unlimited at 64 bits and you are to no longer consider it to be a limitation, don't waste your time writing optimal code. Before someone says - upgrade your dope man - computers haven't improved enough since '08 to warrant an upgrade. If I was complaining about a '00 or even '05, then yes. But dual/quad 2.6GHZ w/ 4GB is not that fucking bad.

Yea, that took me a while to remember what this email was all about. I've moved on and completely forgot this rant.

RE: I hate SOAP
For whatever reason St. Patrick's Day is celebrated on first Saturday of March in Hoboken. So come by and get slammed with all the imbeciles here in all the dirty irish pubs (no offence to irish pubs outside Hoboken) with $50 cover charges and warm piss from plastic cups.

I hate SOAP
Just wasted a whole fucking day trying to get SOAP from first data to work with PHP's build in SoapClient. The fucking shit keeps on telling me duplicate functions and elements. Tried that shit in java and intellij doesn't offer a way to add custom cert anywhere. I hate all those idiotic pointless and completely useless hot air marketing talk about SOAP. And while I'm at it - I have all the XML and all buzz words. Fuck. If I find out some time soon that this is my error - I'll go on a drinking spree during this Saturday's St. Patrick's day. Fuck.
