Now on the docket, moving users to new Exchange server. Hosted exchange, outside of a few syncing issues, has been fantastic. I don't miss maintaining my own exchange server at all. Same here. And I love that it is completely independent of the rest of the environment, too.

 Syncing between what and what?

 Preaching to the choir. Its on my list of things to discuss with my manager at my review next week. Right now we have to run on-prem as we support many enterprises also running on-prem and we have to eat our own dog food so to speak.

 Trying to knock out my regular morning stuff so I can go back home to meet my dad to fix my truck... again. But, after this repair, the entire fuel delivery system will be brand new, so I got that going for me.

 Still thinking about what I did today: Had to glue together two programs from different worlds, one is C++ (linking to native Linux libraries and calling unistd functions), the other is C#. Both programs need to exchange some data (sending commands to the C++ app and returning data to C# and vice versa) and need to run on the same OS. First thought was to P/Invoke, so compiling that C++ app as a lib and call that lib from C#, but I would not be able to debug that on Windows in Visual Studio at all and the C++ app is using an internal API with quite some complicated callbacks. P/Invoki'ng works, even with mono, but it would not have been fun at all in this case. Because I could not debug that C++ app (closed system with just a text editor and a huge make script), I went for something very simple: Exchanging data using the filesystem (I know, there are streams and sockets etc., but again, no debugger). Went for a simple ramfs ramdisk to speed things up, as there will be like 20k messages with ~1,600 bytes each per second. Works like a charm, but there's still a lot to do. Kinda fun to work on such things. Frontends for example, like GUIs or web applications, isn't something I would enjoy.
