So my iPhone had stopped running apps. I was installing updates from the app store. Because this was in the middle of the day, I had to wait a few hours before I could try to fix the problem.
When I finally got home, I began the long process of backing up and restoring the phone. This process took hours, almost 3 or so. When it finally finished, I picked up the phone and the problem still existed.
I then remove the one app that I updated. That's all it took. My friend warned me about updating apps that change their name. Don't do it! Remove the other app first. He had other issues, I had this issue. I don't understand why apple has problems with this, it makes no sense to me.
But on a good note, there are now ssh clients for the iPhone.

Working... on a Saturday
So crunch time has been in effect for a while now, but we finally hit the tipping point.
Systems coverage 7 days a week.
The systems support desk has been covering for a while now, but now they called in the sys engineers.
Which means I get to work today.
Which also means I get OT for working today.
Right now, OT is better than a day doing nothing. I have a monster of a car bill for tollkat... so I can't complain too much.
Speaking of tollkat... pics -> http://pics.tolldog.com/tollkat and soon its own website -> http://www.tollkat.com
Enjoy your Saturday (unless you are here working with me, then enjoy the dry chicken burritos)!

India Part 2
I know it's been a while and I am sure with no current readers that the lapse really matters all that much. Maybe now with the iPhone and lifecast I can keep more up to date.
When others ask me about my time in India the first thing I say is "Do it". I will then proceed to tell them that it is like a paid vacation where you have to go in to work every day.
The work over there was not that difficult, basic systems work that relied more on DW specific information than anything else. I was lucky to be able to go, who knows, maybe I will get to go again.
The office complex was amaingly huge. We were in this place that had about a dozen security guards checking vehicles on the way in. Much more thurough than the guards in RWC trying to protect our catalytic converters. The complex had a below ground mall that was mostly a food court but had cell phone providers, an electronics store and several other odds and ends. Unfortunately the two things it lacked was AC and fresh air.
The hotel we stayed in is probably considered 4 star or will be when it's finished. They were still working on a real fitness room and a pool. The only complaint I had was the water wasn't hot enough for my normal morning scalding shower.
The firs weekend I was there we visited Mysore. We were told it would be a 2 hour drive. Turns out, it's really a 4 hour drive. It made for an extremely long day. But, even with the long trip it was worth it, the temple was amazing and the castle was breathtaking.
We also went shopping that weekend. More on that and the rest of the trip later!
