For those of us that work with OSISoft's PI system... it is.

Oh, no... back to therapy... 
Here's a comment I wrote nearly twenty years ago:
// The version of PI we are currently running does not include pisn_sendexcepstruc which we want to use
// so it is commented out and pisn_sendexceptions is used instead.
// When pisn_sendexcepstruc becomes available, this should be changed
// pisn_sendexcepstruc(line_array [line].tag [index].pt ,
// line_array [line].tag [index].type ,
// &(line_array [line].tag [index].except) ,
// &(line_array [line].tag [index].count));

Oooo... API calls... been using the SDK for so long now, I forgot out all of that joy.
Mind you, my experience goes back to Toolkit calls when it was on VAX/VMS.

Yes. This was that. The fall of 1995. The guy who hired me called it "an Alpha-based VAX", which makes no sense at all, like saying "Pentium-based 486".

VAX/VMS was originally a 32bit system. In the early '90s it was ported to the Alpha chip (64bit)
Perhaps you were being informed you would be working on the 64bit (Alpha-based) version?

That would just be an Alpha (as I'm sure it was), with which I was already familiar. It's also possible the system had originally been a VAX and then refurbished to be an Alpha. :shrug:

Any talk of VAX/VMS in these fora, and I feel obliged to draw everyone's attention to my license plate[^].

Most interesting fact about pi: you only need the first 6 digits to send a spacecraft into orbit of another star, yet some people memorize 100 digits of the number and it makes them feel smart.

Not in this part of the world. dd/mm/yyyy here.*
For us, there is a somewhat coarse way: 22/7. (355/113 is better, but no day like that). Nothing like 3.141592653 seems possible here

Sure. Yes.

Have you had a look in a calendar before you wrote that.

LOL. Of course.

You must have a different calendar than what we do in the US. For us, April has only 30 days.

Guess I'll have to wait until the 3rd of January, 4159.
