Sohel-Talk. Tuesday, June 27, 2006 Sohel has his own language. You must know him to understand the full meaning behind what he says. Here's an example: [09:05] s0hel01: im tom. He wishes to be like me, but he is unable to handle the awesomeness. [09:05] s0hel01: im a loser. He recognizes what he really is. [09:05] s0hel01: cant touch this. He wishes to be like 
MySpace Stupidity. Sunday, June 25, 2006 MySpace seems to be a breeding ground for stupid people. Not to say those who have an account are stupid, I even have one. I just don't go around looking for strangers-turned-friends and actually trying to meet up with them. 1. Man gets robbed by girls met on MySpace. 2. Girls gets assaulted by MySpace friend, then tries to sue MySpace. 3. Teen flies to Jordan to see possible future MySpace mate. 4. Cop fired for MySpace profile When does the stupidity stop? The Internet has completely broken the boundaries of social networking, real-life social networking. Plus, how the hell can you dupe your parents into flying across the country? Stupid parents. 0 comments
My FIRST Production Release! Saturday, June 24, 2006 This is my first 'real' project and just went into production* this morning. The only code issue we ran into was a log4j.properties file. There's a big difference between how it handles forward slashes ("/") and backward slashes ("\"). <param name="File" value="E:\WAS_Logs\projectName\treasury.log"> vs <param name="File" value="E:/WAS_Logs/projectName/treasury.log"> The first is wrong. the \W, \I, and \t (tab) was completely ignored by log4j. The second is how it should be done! Why did this happen? I was copying and pasting file path from Windows Explorer. IT ALWAYS USES A BACKSLASH! Not to blame it; I simply should have been more careful. *production: real world, real users, real life. 0 comments

Vaious Types of Comedy. Friday, June 16, 2006 I've been listening to Shoutcast on Winamp. After finding a few comedy stations, I wonder how some comedians have made it to where they are. [LONG STORIES] I can't follow it. Short and sweet. -David Cross - Shut up, you fucking baby! [BOOOOORING] I fall asleep. -Dennis Miller - Violence in Media [ANGRY] Trying to make me laugh while you're screaming and complaining about a subject isn't funny to me. I like stories. Real or made up, funny nevertheless. -George Carlin [SONGS], some of them -Stephen Lynch - Beelz [GOOD] -Margaret Cho -Dane Cook 0 comments
Synergy is SIN. Thursday, June 08, 2006 I've always dreamed about it. I never thought it was possible: http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/ My setup now: ALL FOUR from ONE keyboard/mouse. No kvm switching needed. No real use for it since I like the KVM better, but its AWESOME nevertheless. Now I'm going to switch back. 1 comments
Project Re-Re-Released for UAT! Monday, June 05, 2006 No, that's not stuttering. That's SOX (Sarbanes-Oxley), bureaucracy and paperwork getting in the way. Thursday: Original UAT (user acceptance testing) release date. -6 AM CST: planned release (noon London) -7 AM CST: I get into work, late -9:30 AM CST London gets the password to the UAT box (mstsc) -Attempts to package (compile code) project fails due to dev/UAT environment inconsistencies. -Make changes to property files, label new code, submit change request, etc. -11:00 AM CST: London team leaves, it's 5:00 PM London time. -We're stuck. We can't do anything because we have no access to the UAT box...AWESOME. Friday: Pushed UAT release date. -7 AM CST: planned release (1 London) -10 AM CST: London team gets new password to UAT box -Attempts to package success! -Configuration on application server has not been done, we put in a change request. Again, delays. -I requested to have developement setup EXACTLY like UAT (should have been that way in the first place). -11 AM they leave, we're stuck. -3 PM CST I stay configure, deploy and test it, DONE. Documentation, DONE. Test Results DONE. -I must stay to prove everything is in place for UAT. -8:30 PM CST I leave the office. Today, Monday: Final UAT release date. -7AM CST: planned UAT release. -7:15 AM CST: I get in at, late. -10 AM CST: Passwords get setup -Everything works perfectly. All this hassle for configuration changes and hoops to go through. All the processes are required, but it does make developement to deployment sluggish. 1 comments
