The implication being that the needle from the patch (the fix) popped a hole in the balloon? Not sure if I'm reading into it too far, or not enough ??

took care of the wrong problem? (lack of priority)
or
per your interpretation: fixed something small and created a disaster?

i liked the colors and a balloon. ;)
 
Some IT history facts :

History of why it’s called a patch.

Software programming used to be on punch cards or tape ( just a little before my time )

Patching the small hole caused the overall pressure just enough to cause a new, bigger hole to open. Or, in other words, once patched a new weakest area was created.

Didn't know that. Intresting.
 
isnt that how upgrades work? you fix the weakest link, then wait till the next weakest link breaks and fix that, repeat for eternity?
 
idk all my toys get upgraded parts, then something else breaks (im not talking software here), its a viscous expensive cycle :O
 
hey all - another patch came for the forum s/w.
I'll get everything backed-up, and run the upgrade.
Probably tomorrow morning when i can't sleep at 4:30, but am not interesting in cold-dark bonus points.
