{long read}

I just attended FOSS.in. I presented a talk there on Fedora-ARM

Here are few of my impressions...

Colors tend to be a part of our lives and in some cases they can influence how we react and feel. There is also historical evidence of color psychology being used by some of the early cultures. While there are some mainstream psychologists who tend to believe that color does not play a significant part in our behavioral patterns, color psychologists claim otherwise.

This is just for test!!!

This is old news by now. But recently I came across quite a few people who are suffering from various problems because of repetitive stress. Goggling for ergonomics is going to give you tons of results. So here's a quick summary of what I do to avoid these problems (hopefully !).

1. It is a problem. If you aren't suffering from it now, you'll later. Unless of course you are taking measures. Obviously your muscles and bones give way after sitting, typing, using the mouse for 8 hours a day, 6-7 days a week (Everyone is browsing on the weekends). And not just your muscles and bones, but your eyes too.
2. Adjust my seat such that my feet touch the ground. And try to make sure there are right angles (90 degrees) at my ankles, knees, waist, elbows. The shoulders are not crumpled forward.
3. My monitor brightness is as low as is possible and the contrast is not too high. But such that I don't have to strain my eyes to read. While I am programming or using the shell, I keep the monitor settings on dark background, white/grey foreground, thus reducing intensity that my eyes have to deal with all day long. I read a lot of studies commenting on what the best combination should be. But there doesn't seem to be any consensus yet. I am currently experimenting with green-on-black
4. Take my eyes off the monitor and look at some distant object. Thus eyes are exercised.
5. Wash my eyes at least once in a day. With the ACs on, eyes tend to become dry. To avoid dark circles, Baba Ramdev suggests, filling your mouth with water, and then splashing water on your eyes.
6. Drink a lot of water. I try to drink at least 2-3 ltrs. of water while in the office. This doesn't include water from other sources like fruits etc.
7. I use an ergonomic split keyboard
8. Do yogasana. Running and gym is good, but you need something that exercises all the muscles of your body. Yogasana help me do that. Your neck, back, spine, fingers and thighs get a lot of strain. Not to mention your mind and your brain.
9. I take frequent breaks. I am very rarely sitting at my desk for long periods of time ;-)
10. Include hand and leg exercies, stretches, shrugs etc. in my daily routine

Feel free to e-m@il me on any stuff i might have useful.

Just finished up a project for an expert system company and, prior to that, a startup supercomputer company, but the Silicon Forest area seems a little quiet on the job market front. I'm wondering what other people's experience of the current job market is and where things are really hotting up for those proficient in the Linux and *BSD worlds. Any thoughts?

Features:

Oracle Flashback Query
Oracle Flashback Version Query
Oracle Flashback Transaction Query
Oracle Flashback Table
Oracle Flashback Drop
Oracle Flashback Database

A transaction in Oracle begins when the first executable SQL statement is encountered. An executable SQL statement is a SQL statement that generates calls to an instance, including DML and DDL statements.
When a transaction begins, Oracle assigns the transaction to an available undo tablespace to record the rollback entries for the new transaction.

The redo log buffer is a circular buffer in the SGA that holds information about changes made to the database. This information is stored in redo entries. Redo entries contain the information necessary to reconstruct, or redo, changes made to the database by INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, ALTER, or DROP operations. Redo entries are used for database recovery, if necessary.

■ Set the LOG_CHECKPOINT_TIMEOUT initialization parameter
■ Set the LOG_CHECKPOINT_INTERVAL initialization parameter
■ Set the FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET initialization parameter
■ Set the size of the smallest redo log

For information on which mechanism is controlling checkpointing behavior, query the V$INSTANCE_RECOVERY view.

偶然读到中科院计算所研究员、龙芯CPU首席设计师胡伟武接受采访的实录，才知道自己对“道高一尺，魔高一丈”这个成语错误理解了那么多年。一切都源于武侠小说的误导，那里，这个成语常被坏人用来形容正义不能战胜邪恶。

Well,

nothing much great about this stuff.
this is my first blog entry on kerneltrap.org

as THOUGHT, i will TRY to blog as often as possible.... :)

Wishing myself "All the Best" :)
