My history with Maven & Spring

Sun, 05 Oct 2014 15:33:24 +0000

I was looking for a particular spring-web version in my local Maven repo and found quite a few and then went on to look for spring-core versions to find this:

Firstly I have this habit of copying the repo from one laptop to the next and sometimes between laptop and PCs, hence seven years of spring versions with gaps; Secondly, spring-core almost increased six times in in size between those versions. It is also an indicator since when I have been using Spring with Maven : at least since mid 2007.

Dell XPS15 - Windows 8.1 WiFi Problems

Fri, 27 Jun 2014 08:06:33 +0000

Quite a few times I am having problems connecting to existing WiFi connections on my Dell XPS15 with Windows 8.1. Even though other devices can connect to the same WiFi switching between them does not work (’limited connectivity’ aka no IP connectivity). Even though rebooting did not help, restarting the DHCP client service did resolve it.
