Hunger Strikes Back

Hi Readers,

Its been a long time since I have written any post. Some of you may feel like “This guy is done with his blah blah stuff” but I assure you that your sufferings are far from over. I am pretty sure that all fat people will appreciate this post atleast may be they can categorize themselves in the world now. I have not thought on this one with my brain but with my belly which seems to shift me to group of “Fatties” these days.

I have distributed the food hungry people among three groups:-

1- Attackers

2- Seekers

3- Shame-ies

Attackers are those who just wait for food to be served and as soon as it is served, nothing is left on table, complete table is empty within the blink of an eye. You cannot give these guys first chance to eat, they always remain hungry and can eat continuously.

Seekers are those who wait for people to invite them for supper. These guys won't use their money for filling their belly. If you go for lunch/dinner with them, you will notice that they won't take out money until asked for and that too with half-hearted response. Their most favorite part of life is attending parties.

Shame-ies are full of respect. These feel shy when invited among a group for eating. They share their food and feel shy at the same time. They are hungry but will eat so slowly and in that time you can have your food thrice. These are most like slow eaters but its quite hard to differentiate between the two.

Well these are three types of foodies. I am quite sure that now you will be able to recognize these foodies really easily. But as far as I am concerned I am Seeker who likes to be a Attackers. I hope you like it and please let us know what group you belong too.

Thanks

The Invisibility

Hi Readers,

Its been more than weeks since I wrote something on sci-fi stuff here on the blog. Well let me present something related to invisibility. What is invisibility in real? What would you consider to be invisible? The answer is simple that something that is not possible to see with our eyes. I hope most of you have seen a Hollywood movie “The hollow man”, this movie is quite a nice depiction of invisibility science. If you really think that this hollow man freak is possible as if now than you are surely mistaken but we cannot deny the fact that this isn't possible in future.

So, the question is that is it possible to make someone or something invisible? The answer is yes, it is possible. To know how it is possible, we need to have a little idea of Physics and all that "reflection/refraction blah blahs". According to it, when a light beam strikes an object it gets reflected to our eyes and then only we are able to see the object but sometimes if light beam passes through the object without getting reflected back to our eyes, the object becomes transparent but not completely invisible as it happens with glass since a little part of light beam is reflected back to our eyes. So, if we consider this and try to think that how to deflect the light beam striking an object and not letting it reach the eye, then we can make the object invisible. This is a hard part to achieve since at some angle it is possible that the light beam is reflected to our eyes after striking the object.

I have heard some news regarding this invisibility experiments by scientists though they have not tried this light beam deflection phenomenon as per my information but they have tried some camouflage thing and camera use invisibility. Camouflage thing works in the same way as what the reptile chameleon does to hide. Actually this thing is the use of surrounding color and scene to hide oneself. This is quite lame for scientists to use since it is not actual invisibility. Its like they want to say “it meant the same thing”. The camera use invisibility is like both the sides of an object is having cameras and the video is streamed on the opposite side of camera on a screen. So when you look into the one side of object you see the other side picture making it feel like you are seeing on the other side. This is quite close but need more work to perfect it. There are various lacking in these two process.

Let us get back to what I had in mind, if you consider the light beam deflection theory and let us assume that we achieve this than also I would say that when you touch the invisible object, you should be able to go through it completely, think it like a ghost from which you can pass through. Well if you are thinking that the first part is itself hard and now I am adding new stuff into that and making it harder than you are wrong, what would be invisibility if you cannot make an object untouchable as well. But how to make it untouchable, quite tough though so what I had in mind is to use nano technology in this case. What we can do is, create an object which is a combination of nano robots or nanobots. All these nanobots should have light beam deflection feature and also they should be breakable when ever we try to move towards them they can break and move away and again fuse to form the object. At least in this way we are not able to touch them.

I hope you all have some idea on nanotechnology, if not please try Google, it works. Please share your comments and ideas if you have any. You are most welcome to share this post if you like.

The 3 Letters of Charlie

Hi Readers,

[Continued From.... Charlie's will]

Lawyer opened Charlie's first letter to read in front of audience. Lawyer spoke “Charlie wanted to apologies to you all for not being with you for rest of your life. He also apologized for hurting anyone of you in any way”. Tears were in every eye. Lawyer continued “He wanted his friends and family to know that he will miss them the most.” Lawyer ended reading the letter, wrapped it and gave it to Charlie’s family.

Once the funeral was over and everyone returned to their home, Charlie’s friend Ron opened his letter to read what was written in it. “Hi Ron, I know I will not be there at your birthday and most of the other important moments of your life and that is why I am giving you the gift that you would like very much. It is my father’s pocket watch that you always wanted. I know you might be wondering that how I came to know about the watch but I don't have any answer to that.”

Charlie’s ex-wife was on her way to home in car but she decided to read the letter on the way itself. The letter said “My love I waited for you for so long that today I am not there with you to share this. I still wished that you could have understood me five years back that I did not cheat on you and there was no woman in my life other than you. May be you are thinking that I am just trying to give you an explanation for my lie. The woman whom you saw with me was the event organizer for the surprise marriage anniversary party and you miss understood me but I don't blame you for that as you loved me and can not see with anyone else.”

She continued reading “You still might be thinking that how can I just let you go if I have not cheated on you, well my love the answer is simple that I loved you so much that I can do anything to see you happy and I knew at that time five years back that you were in pain thinking of I had cheated and if you remember that when we had a quarrel during which you told me that you would be happy if I gave you a divorce. It was all I did for you. Now I am not there but by telling you I just want you to know that I still love you and will continue to do that afterlife”. She had tears in her eyes but she cannot do a thing as there will be no Charlie in her life.

These three posts... The Last Day of Charlie, Charlie's Will and The 3 Letters of Charlie are my personal writing and if by any chance their name corresponds to any real life character then I apologies for that. Before I complete my post let me sum up the message spread all over these three stories-

1- Do something for poor and needy

2- Love you family

3- Care for them who take care of you.

4- Share every thing with your friend except your pain as he is aware of it and the only reason he won't talk about it is because he knows that your pain would increase.

5- Don't wait for too long to ask or share something with your friend as it may get late.

6- Love is build on trust and belief and is like a bridge where these two things are to be maintained by both sides.

7- Love someone like you love your life and let them remain happy at what they love or like the most even though it hurts you.

If you like my post you can share these stories and comment as well.

Charlie's Will

Hi Readers,

[Continued From.... The Last Day of Charlie]

Charlie laughed and replied “You are still the same, no change whatsoever, still you talk so much”. Samantha giggled and said “ You still remember those days”. “Hmm, I do how can I forget the only best days of my life” said Charlie. “Nevertheless, how are you and your wife” said Samantha. Charlie replied “She left me”. Samantha replied shockingly “Again, you won't change Charlie. Well it was good to talk to you Charlie, I have got some work to do may be we can talk later”. “Hmm, ok sure, just one last thing ..... I love you so Much and I am sorry if I hurt you” replied Charlie. Samantha said “Same here, see you bye”.

Charlie was keeping the phone aside when he felt on the ground. Nurse saw him and panicked and called in the doctor. Doctor hurried and checked Charlie's pulse. Doctor said “Oh my god, there is no pulse”. The rest was confirmed by what doctor meant, Charlie was gone, he was dead. Charlie's family was called in to take the body. After finishing formalities of the hospital the body was handed over to them the next day of Charlie's death.

A funeral ceremony was organised and most of Charlie's friends and relative were called in for it. Charlie's body was buried in ground and then his lawyer asked in to every one to stay behind for Charlie's will reading. Lawyer started reading the clauses in Charlie's will one after another. Lawyer said “Clause one: Charlie left a Gold Pocket watch for his friend Ron as his birthday present. Charlie has also asked me to give this letter to you Mr. Ron and he asked me to tell you to read it alone”.

Lawyer then started reading again from where he had stopped. Lawyer said “Second Clause: Charlie has left behind 1 million dollars for his ex-wife. I would request you to come forward Mrs. Samantha and accept the cheque on his behalf”. Samantha started walked towards the podium in confusion. She stepped towards the Lawyer and asked him “ I think I am not the one for whom Charlie asked you to leave so much of money”. Lawyer replied “Yes sure he did and here is the letter he asked me to give to you”.

Lawyer continued paying attention to Charlie's will. Lawyer spoke “ Third Clause: Charlie has asked to sell his property excluding his home which he asks to be given to his family. Whatever amount of money is collected from selling his property, it should be divided in three halves; one half should be given to the funds of the hospital where he spent his last days. The second half should be given to his family and the third half to be given to his trust for poor. Well that is it from Charlie's will”. Every one got up from their seat but lawyer continued “sorry ladies and gentlemen but can you all please be seated for a while. There is a letter he wanted me to read to you all”.

The Last Day of Charlie

Hi Readers,

Charlie's heart was pumping heavily, he inhaled and exhaled air more quickly than a healthy person. He pressed the alarm button to call in the nurse. Nurse rushed in with a doctor behind her. Doctor shouted impatiently “Quickly give an oxygen mask”. Nurse immediately got one mask and put it over Charlie's face. All were in panic for about half an hour. Once the environment got a little easy and Charlie's breath became normal, he removed his mask and called in the nurse. “Nurse can you please do me a favor" asked Charlie. Nurse replied “Yes sure. What can I do for you?”. Charlie said “Can you please arrange a horse ride for me”. Nurse replied in confusion ”A horse ride ? You are joking right”. “No I am serious” said Charlie. Nurse said “well in that case let me ask from doctor but can you tell me why you need a horse?”.

Charlie paused for a minute thinking of what his father said once “Remember son, you should treat horse as a friend of yours and that way you can ride a horse with confidence”. Charlie responded to nurse “Well its my favorite animal” and laughed. Nurse was confused but she laughed in support. After five minutes nurse said “Charlie I had called doctor and he said the horse ride can be arranged by tomorrow morning”. “Ok that seems fine by me but I need one more favor can you please do that for me” said Charlie. “Yes please tell me” replied nurse. Charlie asked “Can you give me a phone? I need to make some phone calls”. Nurse acted quickly and bought a phone for Charlie and said “It is almost 10 o'clock in the night Charlie, better you have your calls quickly and go to bed soon”. Charlie looked towards her with pain and tears in his eyes, but diverted back to making phone calls.

He made his first call to his friend Ron. Ron picked the phone. Charlie said “Hi Ron, Its me Charlie, long time no talk man. Any how I called you up so late, I am sorry for that but I wanted to wish you a very Happy Birthday. So, Now you can go back to sleep”. After Charlie finished his sentence, he cancelled his call without hearing any response from Ron. Ron's wife asked “Who was it? “. Ron replied “It was my friend Charlie, but it seemed he was little confused and seemed in despair”. Ron's wife said “confused and despair?”. Ron told “Yes confused because he said 'we didn't have talk for long time' though we talked a week back and he wished me happy birthday although he knows my birthday is coming after 3 months and after that he cancelled the call without listening what I had to say. May be I will call him tomorrow to know the confusion”.

Charlie dialed his second call to his ex-wife Samantha. Samantha picked up his call “Hi Samantha here. May I know who is this speaking”. “Hi Sam, Its me Charlie”said Charlie. Samantha replied happily “Hi Charlie, how are you? We are talking almost after 5 years after our divorce. How have you been?”.

GOD and his dictionary

Hi Readers,

This thought came to my mind while I had been going through my dictionary. I have been thinking on and on for a long time since then that how we humans have invented so many words in different languages that we our self don't know the meaning of those each and every term. So in similar way may be there is a very small possibility that god has his own dictionary just to make it sure that he is aware of what new words humans have spoken and what these actually mean. I think that may be the name of this dictionary is “GOD's Multilingual Learner's Dictionary” published by “Heaven University Press”.

The most interesting question that came to my mind is that what would be there in this dictionary of GOD. The answer to this question is really tough as it is hard to ensure its correctness so, I came up with some of my ideas that what I believe would be there. The only thing you need to believe is that the dictionary would be magical as it belongs to GOD. The dictionary would be something not very different from the ones that humans have. Now since we have dictionary depending upon our interpretation of words and their meaning so, the most probable answer could be that GOD's dictionary would be in accordance to his values but since it is to tell him what the words mean therefore the meaning of words would be similar to ones we have.

But this dictionary of GOD would not be as simple as the ones we have. So, I presume that it would come with some additional feature. Well what would be these additional features? This is quite interesting to think upon so what my interpretation is that each and every word would have this “like button” with it, the button is not for GOD to show his preference to a word but to show that what words are used by humans at day to day level, it is exactly like number of page views for the blog. This like feature would work in some way like when we speak a word there is a increase by 1 in the word's like. So, may be this “like” is not a button but is more like a symbol.

Not only a like symbol but there should be an another feature of "Red and Green symbol" beside every term in dictionary just to tell or indicate the purity of each word. Well it is something like a word with absurd meaning or some meaning which is really impure would have a Red symbol while the meaning with a very pure sense would have a Green symbol. If this feature is really present there then I should be correct in one thing that the top most spoken word would have a red symbol for sure.

That is all that I can come up with at this point of time but if you all have anything to add up then you can come up and comment here. If by any means I have written something wrong that is against your religion then please pardon me as I have no intent in doing so. I am perfectly sure that GOD would not feel any problem with what I have written here and at least I can say is that he would laugh at this.

Please comment and share if you like it. If I get a good response then surely I would write something on “History of GOD's Dictionary”.

Thanks

Teachers: Their Lake of Grammar

Hi Readers,

“The football is not the air”... this is one of the most famous line that one of my teachers spoke quite a long time back. Actually he meant that “There is no air in the football”. Though we never asked him to speak in English but he tried his best and I respect that but really football and air combination is a missile of laughter. But if we see what he spoke then its quite correct until we don't try to get his perspective. Well I said he spoke correctly because “football” and “air” are really not the same entity.

I would say that he might be joking at that moment of time but I have seen most of the teachers who have a strange pronunciation in English. Let me tell you what is strange about the pronunciation of one such teacher. Well first of all he says “you guys have a Lake(Lack) of Confidence”. Oh really I do have a lake, can you please tell me where. Not only this but “You all give me a lot of Strace(stress)”. Hey you mean Miss Strace, hmm Good for you. He even claims to have eaten “snakes(snacks)”. Were they living or dead when you ate them.

Well these are some examples of those teachers and their Grammatical pronunciation which I remember over the long period of time. There are lot of others who speak like that and may be sometime we our self have this “Lake” of grammar and pronunciation. Nevertheless please enjoy the below lines on their pronunciation-

My teacher spoke,

he had this stroke or stoke

He felt stress or strace

may be he ate snacks or snakes

but i cannot explain that was this

because my knowledge lacks or lakes.

I hope you have encountered such people and I would like you to come forth and share them here. You are most welcome to comment and share.

Game over ... Nerd wins on Michael Jordan

Hi Readers,

I got this material while surfing and its really nice so i wanted to share this here and let you guys enjoy-

Michael Jordan having "retired," with $40 million in endorsements, makes $178,100 a day, working or not.
If he sleeps 7 hours a night, he makes $52,000 every night while visions of sugarplums dance in his head.
If he goes to see a movie, it'll cost him $7.00, but he'll make $18,550 while he's there.
If he decides to have a 5-minute egg, he'll make $618 while boiling it.
He makes $7,415/hour more than minimum wage.
If he wanted to save up for a new Acura NSX ($90,000) it would take him a whole 12 hours.

If someone were to hand him his salary and endorsement money, they would have to do it at the rate of $200 every second.
He'll probably pay around $200 for a nice round of golf, but will be reimbursed $33,390 for that round.
He'll make about $19.60 while watching the 100-meter dash in the Olympics, and about $15,600 during the Boston Marathon.
This year, he'll make more than twice as much as all U.S. past presidents for all of their terms combined.

Amazing isn't it?

However...

If Jordan saves 100% of his income for the next 500 years, he'll still have less than Bill Gates has at this very moment.

Game over. Nerd wins.

Awaiting you response.

Power PC by WIPRO

Hi Readers,

An Indian IT company named WIPRO has launched “Power PC”. This is a desktop with a power backup of 120 minutes as claimed by WIPRO. Also the PC is integrated with feature for 50% reduction in power consumption. The PC is powerful because it has various other feature which includes withstanding power fluctuations and “Cold Start” option. For those who do not have any idea on cold start, let me tell you that it means starting PC without any external power using integrated power backup.

It has a unique monitor which draws power from PC unit rather than being connected to AC mains. Therefore when PC is at full load it consumes power up to 85 watts rather than as usual of 230 watts.

Well this PC will be available to Indian Market and that to only in Kerala for the start.

My reviews on this Power PC-

1- Nice concept of power backup in Desktop.

2- Eco friendly due to reduced power consumption.

3- Will be less in cost but quite unsure on that.

I hope you liked my review. Awaiting your comments.

You kidding.... Thats not me

Hi Readers,

“Hey Nakul, yesterday I saw you with a girl,” said my friend, I had this proud smile on my face thinking that its good he thinks I am with some girl, but soon it disappeared when he said “and the girl was not good looking at all”. All friends laughed and I was feeling like someone shot me but I had to say something so I said “Dude you kidding.... Thats not me may be you say someone else looking similar to me”.

I am not really sure that how many of you do this but this is what I usually say when I am involved in such a troublesome situation. Blame that to your doppelgangers that is the best thing. Well I don't know how many of your friends try to kick your asses in different ways but that is what happens in my friends group where we target a person each day for such a special treatment. The most unusual thing is if someone supported you, that means its your lucky day. Quite frankly I never understood why my friends don't see me with a hot girl, there is always some ugly girl.

Other than this there are most situation that I don't claim of me being myself. This situation is when my teenage pics are revealed to my friends, well this is totally my mistake, I misplace them. SO if they get it they say “Hey dude who is this freaky person, is it you”, I had to respond saying “Thats not me, its someone else”. My friends said “Who someone, this has to go on Facebook its you I am sure”, I said “Are you a cop or something, its my brother”. Well Its better that my teenage photoes never match with me and that is why my friends believe it otherwise it is a kill me situation.

So the motive behind all of the above blah blah crap is that “Never accept of you being you when you sense the situation is going to make you feel like a joker”. I accept that most of it is not going to make a sense but I had to write something to make you understand the whole point. I hope to receive your comments and like. If you wish you can share this as well.

Money and Mentality

Hi Readers,

I always had this question in my mind but today I really feel like asking it. I have never understood this thing that why we all feel cravings for money? I am quite sure you would say that its an idiotic question but let me tell you it is not. This thought came to my mind after a very recent incident. Well I cannot discuss the incident in detail but I would let you know a summary on it so to make you understand the fairness of the question. So the incident is like "I had to do some collection of money from a group of people and so I went to their desk and asked for the amount of money but their reaction was like I had shot them and they seemed quite surprised".

I can totally understand that reaction when I have not given them sufficient time but here this was not the case. So as far as I am concerned I am not wrong on any perspective. The most irritating thing is when everyone is asking silly question and provide such irritating suggestion for a very less amount which even a poor guy can pay. Well as far as suggestions are concerned, I feel like saying to them that why don’t you come forth and take this responsibility and follow your hectic suggestion.

I have always thought that we have many other things to give priority in life other than money and these things are as below-

1-      Family and Friends (Live for them)

2-      Chocolates (Fight for them), as far as I am concerned I will fight you for any sweet.

3-      Anime shows and Video Games (Love them)

4-      Magic, Movies, and Music (Always have Time for them)

5-      Sleep (Whenever you get time)

6-      Work (Until and unless It is not going to kill you and will not stop you from doing above 5)

I thought of adding Studies and Reading books but I don’t like doing it, I feel sleepy when doing reading stuff so no point of that. I hope you all are not interested in money like a crazy person. Always keep this in your mind feel like Bill Gates at every point even you have no money, just try not to spend like him. Its all about how you feel.

I hope you all like my post and please comment if you have anything in mind to add in.

Thanks

Linux: The ‘|’ symbol

Hi Readers,

As many of the Linux users or to be precise UNIX users use combination of UNIX commands on shell to get a desired output. This is done by using ‘|’ symbol called as ‘PIPE’, but I am quite sure that most of you won’t know about this symbol and what it actually is and how it works. So let me tell you all what it is and what it does when you write some command like below-

ls –lrt | tail -3

The pipe symbol is an inter-process communication mechanism in UNIX which is known as ‘PIPE’. This pipe works only for inter process communication between two or more child process having a common parent process and not when there are two different parent processes for two child process separately. The basic functioning of pipe is shown in below diagram-

 

You need to remember that pipes are unidirectional in nature and therefore if one side (or descriptor) is taken for writing it will be fixed and other side is used for reading. When two different processes communicate that is to say parent process writes to pipe and child process reads from pipe then the diagrammatic representation is as below-

In the similar way the two way communication can be achieved where child also writes and parent reads but to achieve this you need to use two pipes, here one will not work. So the above diagram can be modified as below-

Now you are aware of communication using pipe and therefore there are two question which comes forth-

1-      How these UNIX command work using pipes?

2-      Since pipes does not work for two different parent process criteria then how this command actually gets executed?

So the answer for the first question is that when we write command like ls –lrt | tail -3, two separate process are created as you all may know that each command is created as a process. Here the two processes are P1=> ls –lrt and P2=> tail -3. So what happens is that output from P1 is stored in pipe which is read by P2 and P2 uses it as an input to its command and displays the output. Not only these two processes are present when this command is executed but also parent process is available which is called as ‘shell’. Since shell is common parent process the pipe works properly in this scenario and this answers the second question. To explain you the overall process below diagram will help-

Now I am sure that this may clarify your concepts on pipe and if you still have any queries, you are most welcome to ask them. I hope to receive your comments.

Linux: Downloading

Hi Readers,

Before I begin with anything, for your ease and proper navigation, I would let you all know that you can identify any topic on Linux by following the below syntax-

Linux: <topic_name>

Well the topic today we will discuss is on how to perform Download operation in Linux operating system. There are two kinds of downloading we perform-

• Download using torrents
• Direct downloading (means we download anything from a link available on website and not like we download a file and then again download using that file)

Download using Torrents

Like Windows has many torrent download applications in similar way Linux has application called as “Transmission”. You can try it for your Linux version whether its available or not. It works like uTorrent and supports mostly all features available in uTorrent.

Direct Downloading

This is a hard part since Linux lacks in download managers and mostly all available download managers for Linux are bunch of craps. If you are a windows user then you would know about IDM, FDM, and other download managers. Well Linux has nothing like this here and most download managers in Linux just claim resume support but none can do that as far as I have checked them. But there are few techniques to follow and get this resuming of task completed in Linux. You can try using command prompt in Linux and you can try a command called as “wget” in Linux.

Wget supports tons of features but the best one is how to use it for resuming a download. You only need to know one command always and that is “wget -c <download_link>”. Copy a download_link and paste it in the command line in the above format and press enter. If you have stopped the download and want to resume the download then run the same command again and you will see it resumes. Well there are also other functions of wget in accordance to internet and if you wish to learn it all then open your Linux command prompt and type “man wget” to know more.

There is one other type of downloading that you might be doing mostly and that is capturing online videos and songs. To get this thing done in Linux use “Mozilla Firefox” as your web browser and download a addon named as “Flashgot”. It is helpful in capturing online videos and songs. Once you have downloaded it, you would see it blinking on the status bar of your browser as soon as you open a webpage with videos, just click on the blinking icon and start the download you want and even you can chose the download manager for the download using flashgot. (Note:- This same task works for Mozilla Firefox on Windows Operating System).

Well I hope this downloading tutorial will help you all. You can send in your comments and suggestions or may be any question regarding this topic.

The Cellphone Man

Hi Readers,

I have been wondering these days that we all people are so much indulged in our little plaything called as “Mobile phone” that we don't even pay attention to our surrounding. Well this post is on Mr. X though it applies to us all. So, as I told you that Mr. X loves his laptop very much, in similar way he is addicted to his mobile phone. Well he is so much involved in his mobile phone that he won't listen to any of the chat going on in our little social group. So I have decided to initiate a hiring process for his replacement. You can send in your nomination in the post comment section.

So jokes apart. Mr. X has been warned by many of us that please avoid use of mobile phone when you are with us but he won't pay attention to us. Therefore, I came up with this name for him “The Cellphone Man”. The question here is how can we call him a cellphone man, so there are few symptoms we came across in the cellphone man which can be listed as below-

• Uses mobile phones at lunch, dinner and at any place or time of stomach filling.
• Talks on mobile phones while walking on road at most of the time and is unaware of his surrounding.
• Uses Facebook on mobile phones more times than on PC.
• Uses wats-app every time, and gets internet recharge only to use wats-app.
• Will pay all mobile phone bills on time even missing out any electricity bill payments.
• Gets commented and warned on not using mobile phones by people who don't know him at places where there is no restriction on use of mobile phones.
• Most important part is that misses out any updates on friends during social chat. Only responds with “hmm... hmm...” every time.

I would advise you all to look around yourself and check whether or not you are surrounded by such “Cellphone man”. May be you are yourself a “Cellphone man”. There are more things in life than a cellphone or internet so please think and act beyond that 4 inch screen of your mobile phone.

I hope you are not such a person. Awaiting your comments and may be you can add some more points in the symptom list.

Thanks

Task, Program, Process, and Thread

Hi Readers,

This post is purely technical and operating system related so, please be aware.  If you don't like technical so just leave. Well I have seen people getting confused between these four terms related to operating system. So, let me clarify this doubt by sharing my knowledge and concept. You will not find any strong definition here, I would just explain you the concept. So these terms are Task, Program, Process and Thread. The hierarchy goes like this below diagram

A Task is a set of Program loaded in memory.

A Program is a Passive entity that is its like a group of process residing in secondary storage.

A Process is a part of Program currently in execution.

A Thread is much more smaller division of this Process.

Task/Process/Thread are active entity that means they are loaded in primary memory where as Program is a Passive entity which is in secondary memory. Therefore at most places you won't find any details on these four at the same time.

Lets take an example- When you open applications they form tasks that is to say that you opened MS word, windows media player, and some other application. Now when these individual applications like MS word was not opened it was like program residing in secondary storage. Once you open MS word it gets loaded to RAM and forms a process. So the question comes where is thread, the thread is like smaller entity in this process that is when you write something on MS word you would see spell checker showing errors, so these spell checkers are like Threads.

So to summarize you can say that a Process and Program are more over the same thing only difference is that one is term for application in primary memory and the other for application in secondary storage. (Note:- Application in previous sentence refers to any executable code). So the diagram to explain all the stuff above is as below-

I hope that this post clarifies your concept. Please come up with any question regarding this. I will surely try to solve that.

Thanks

Me, You and All

Hi Readers,

Before I start writing something in this post, let me clarify that whatever I am going to write here might have some weight for me at the very moment but I am sure that it will be a blah blah at other time for me. It often happens in life that people face certain moments in life that makes them aware of some life altering facts and truth which may be for their own or for someone else. Well I am also like you so I have this feeling as well. But the problem here is I may not be correct.

Well it happens sometimes I feel sad about my own problems and sometimes for others also. Now I don't feel like writing on this topic since all those feelings are now gone. But still I would let you all know my thoughts a little. There is a dialogue in the Bollywood movie “Om Shanti Om” which I don't remember word by word but that is a very true dialogue. The dialogue goes something like this “Our life is like a movie at the end it all ends well and if doesn't end well then its not the end”. Most of the problems just go means they just vanish if you just take an initiative. You might say that what type of initiative or what the hell is this to do with problems. Well problems or moments of pain or sorrow are like villains in the movie, when the actor attempts to take care of them by himself, he wins. So its exactly like that the only thing required is to try to overcome those sorrow. I can assure you if you are really trying, you will win for sure but it might take time so be patient.

Well mostly I haven't taken any initiative to suppress those sorrow or problematic feelings of mine but still for some cases I did and it was a success. Well I have observed for myself that I try to compete with everyone whom I may or may not know but still I compete them mentally. Mentally in the sense that its not physically seen by others, its only in my mind and heart. Well I fail many times and therefore I create my own sorrowful days. There is also a lack in this “Competition attitude” that I don't compete when it should be done in actual rather it happens at times when there should not be any point of it. This is my personal observation and I am not a therapists to tell these. But I would surely take in your suggestions on the solution you may think of for this issue.

Here you go as I told you my observation of my problem, I declare it here that I would like you all to come forward and share your feeling and problems. May be for these problems I or may be anyone can have a solution.

So please comment and share your issues. I would try to get some solution for your problems. These problems can be in any nature not necessarily on life but on any topic. Lets open our mind.

Thanks
