The new contemporary movement of engineers resisting dump analysis automation (including automated debugging and perhaps automated software construction too)
Inspired by Luddite movement.

While I was listening to Klaus Schulze In Blue album a colleague sent me the link to a tool that reconstructs blue screens from minidumps (small memory dumps):
BlueScreenView (written by Nir Sofer)
I immediately downloaded it at it works even with kernel dumps but without pointing to a module that triggered the bugcheck (it shows modules for minidumps):
It ignores memory dumps and minidumps from x64 Windows so the next version I hope should do it 
PS. Long time ago I was thinking about writing a kernel driver that saves BSOD screen and embeds it in a memory dump.

This is an encyclopedic work I bought in a local book shop and finally finished reading today. It took me a year to read from cover to cover and pages were falling out of the glue but I continued to read. Highly recommended for education and another view on human history. The review of Freud was enlightening to me because I didn’t know about the recent scholarship criticizing his work. In fact, I so liked this book that just bought it again in a hardcover version from Folio Society and start rereading it again soon.
Ideas: A History of Thought and Invention, from Fire to Freud
The second encyclopedic book seems was written before the previous one but looks like the logical sequel to it. I’m starting reading it next week.
The Modern Mind: An Intellectual History of the 20th Century
