Karunanidhi, Happy Tamil New Year!

For years, we have celebrated Tamil New Year on April 14th. But, the "doctor" Karunanidhi has changed that and willfully declared April 14th Ambedkar Jayanthi--Holiday! The most affected people here are those who work in private sectors.

Sad that government servants aka Karunanidhi's servants are still playing sycophancy

When we practice to see the things depends on the person then the golden concepts also be invalid...Just see the neighbor state when they are celebrate the newyear and at what concern they are doing? If you get answer on it then everything will be clear...

I just stumbled upon this link through Hacker News where TIME magazine reports on Bob Lutz's latest book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business . Some interesting notes: we need to fire the M.B.A.s and let engineers run the show. "if you can measure it, you can manage it" The only time Apple ever lost the plot was when it put the M.B.A.s in charge. "Shoemakers should be run by shoe guys, and software firms by software guys."

3-years of Ubuntu MATE - Good and the bad

Many people are getting shocked to know that I'm using Ubuntu in my workplace. Linux/Ubuntu is more of an alien here as Windows 10 and Mac OSX is having good market here. First of all, I'm a very happy Windows XP user. In XP, I used to do most of my JavaScript and PHP in Devl , the editor that our team has developed. Reason for switching to Ubuntu MATE Primary reason for switching to Ubuntu was, at one point of time PHP team stopped supporting Windows XP . So, we're left with few options: 1.

Ubuntu MATE - Pros Linux comes with lots of command line tools. I have started to do many tasks using these shell scripts and found very productive. We switched from Google Chrome to Chromium for good. Ubuntu MATE - Cons We started with GNOME for desktop, but it was memory hungry and was not ...
