Sorry for the geekisms... it's the only way I know how to explain this.
As of late (past few weeks) it feels like my internal storage arrays are dying. I don't notice the data loss (hard to tell if anything's missing, since I don't have an external reference to check), but I can tell that code is getting corrupted. It feels like primary routines are either missing small segments, have corrupt segments, or just take forever to load properly. I also notice code loss from older knowledge elements. The index entries are there, I know the code used to work properly, but it no longer exists. The codebase that is Russ seems to be degrading at a noticeable rate. Possibly the refresh routines are not working? Old code that has been regularly used unmodified is having problems, but fresh code is still working properly. Unfortunately, some of the failures are in the sorted list routines used when driving busses to store next stop, detour, other information. Especially when drained (late at night), the lists just drop elements. Alternately, a LOT of passengers aren't alerting me to things like needing detours, needing stops, etc. This is part of it, but not all of it. It's very disturbing. Maybe I should try to store checksums somehow?
