Artlav is my favorite mad scientist. Here he is in his lab:
And this is his next project.

... at one time, our control room was in the ONC building. We needed a reradiating antenna ... to talk from the pad to their ... conversations. And I told them, I said, "Man, we need a reradiating antenna." We couldn't find one. Anyhow, so one Monday I come in, and we have a test scheduled, and ... there was a reradiating antenna.
So at ten o'clock I had to go the range test conductor's briefing at the range control building. It used to be the old control building, on the Cape side. And one guy was complaining about Pad 36. He said, "I don't know what happened, but did we have a real storm or something? Friday when we went home, we had a reradiating antenna on the tower and it must have blown off over the weekend."
I said, "Oh, . I know exactly how it had blown off. Sergeant Barton." I mean, he could have just said, whatever you ... (need, I) could find for you. (Laughter) These were the things that happened.
That is how you got things done during the Space Race...

Serialising pointers and then using them as key over several runtimes... yeah, I can see what might be going wrong there :lol:
Writing your own low-level memory managment to allocate them at the same address would probably be a bit overkill to fix the problem...
Well, an easier way is to just rebuild the tree. Doesn't take that much more time.Writing your own low-level memory managment to allocate them at the same address would probably be a bit overkill to fix the problem...

I've been tentatively offered a position programming PID controllers. A bit different direction from my current path, but I'm giving it serious consideration. One potential positive is I'd be working from home, another in that there would be no travel. Don't get me wrong, I love travelling, but having my daughter ever weekend forces me into a pretty tight, usually impractical travel window.
...when a customer complains that a harddisk provided by your company for 24/7 video recording "is already broken after only 5 years!" :facepalm:
A tape drive would have lasted 50 years.... OK, the surveillance tapes have varying lifetimes, depending on what was recorded on them....
