Magical programs

Have you ever wallowed in delight that you are actually getting the hang of programming and reporting. I mean just sat and stared and your accomplishment with boastful pride only to watch it suddenly evaporate into thin air without so much as an error. I mean there could be some kind of splash screen that would at least call me a moron for not saving more often and simply state it is trying to teach me a valuable lesson which will help me grow and evolve, but no, it just magically vanishes.

  • Way back in the day when I was working in defense, we did everything on a VAX 11782 and every so often it would spit out a screen that said.. "This terminal is shutting down, you have 0 seconds to save and log off." If you weren't fast enough, of course you were never fast enough, it takes more than a second to read the message, everything you were doing was gone into thin air.
