Indian govt, like any other, provides a lot of subsidy to the needed. They have some programs and funds to do this. However, most of the funds don't reach people who need them. Why - too many middlemen, corruption, etc. Through this program they are trying to cut the middlemen or at least hoping to. Most other forms of ids can be faked, these possible in Bond movies but difficult in India.

We have some team members who aren't so command line savvy(don't ask why). I recommend source tree to them and they are quite happy with it (which means others can work without interrupts). It's a decent app for basic/everyday things.

French parents learned to ignore, say no to their kids from their parents who learned from their parents and so on. In other words - it might be in their culture. I grew up in India and do find a lot of similarities in my upbringing - our egos were not always served, maybe 30% of times. We had family in US and I noticed - kid's egos in their families were served 90% of the times. As mentioned in the article, kids were ruling their life...whereas in my family it was the other way around. Did it make any difference in the lives of those kids or mine - that's a different topic. My point here is maybe American parents were told to over parent. By whom - not sure, but could be babies r us, or mattelle sponsored studies, or ads on TV to promote products, etc.

technology is here to help us live better, so maybe there is an app for this in future? someone works diligently to study child habits from different countries - developed or not and categorizes parenting styles. As a user one can ask the app - which parenting style the action you just took for your child's demand/question fall under, which can help you determine future implications, whether you should have done something else (the app doesnt tell you....but knowledge and data can guide you). I would read these and feed my brain.

thanks a lot

Does anyone know if they are planning on bringing back Ubiquity. Of the different lab projects, this one I miss a lot.

The 'path' seems to be of a solid programmer/consultant. If you are going to work in a team then I would add 'improving teamwork skills'. This mainly involves respecting others in the team and focusing on team's success. These things go a long way and you will get a chance to work with developers in different areas of the company and contribute towards interesting projects.

Spring offers some if the features to JAVA, that these newer languages have. Spring annotations lessens the XML configuration, none at times, it's AOP jar allows passing methods to methods as in some of the functional types, etc. Problem is people haven't updated their codebase and continue maintaining the old XMLs.

See how this is great for people in finance and law - they get big firms into bidding wars, end up paying a large number and eventually end up filing infringement suits to get back the $$$$ spent.

there are talks about skype integrating with television sets. Think its LG and more to come. Xbox sits next to that tv and is one of the successful products in it's stack. maybe msft wants to be part of your living room?

sounds like an April fool joke

I just joined a 70 people company from a company with 50K employees globally....and loving it here.

At my past company I worked on an important module, it was well tested, everyone loved it. After 2 months it was on the 'path' to be released after 2 months. At this company I worked on something last week and we are looking to release it in 2 weeks (with enough QA).

People work in mid-small companies. Big companies have smart people but they get LAZY and eventually the culture builds up on you.

It is important to work for a big company and get exposed to the culture......as these are the people you might make products for, these are people who may put money in your company, etc. I would RUN after spending 2 years.

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Funny, lot of philosophical analogies and above all have to honor Douglas Adam's imagination

Listing few that stayed 'on my mind' for multiple days

- E=mc2

- Genocide in Darfur http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_in_Darfur and

- Wealth controlled by top 1 percent of population in US http://www.slate.com/id/2268872/

JAVA handled by the micro managers. That means each new feature will be nicely documented first...in a contract. It will go through a rigorous due diligence process, the basic questions being 'Whats in it for Oracle', 'Does it help our performance', etc. Oracle makes good enough software but at a slow pace.

Gosling's not going to say 'I am really worried about JAVA and chances are it may not evolve'. But I think its quite clear from this interview.

As someone who is not working in Google, not in the Bay area, 33 and immigrant - I would do it.

$110K is low for the valley. But, Google will be a good addition on my resume, I will be in the heart of Silicon valley. I will LIVE software for however long I stay here.

Work hard in the first year, once they like your work - ask for a raise or fat(ter) bonus. Work hard in the second year. Move up. Work hard in the third year. Ask for money again. Most probably they will be tired of you. Leave.....
