Have I found what I love?
Read the commencement address by Steve Jobs at the stanford university and kept thinking about what I loved and if I knew what I like? Well, am not sure if what I think I like is what I actually like. If I knew it, then I would probably have been one of Linus Torvalds or Steve Jobs himself!
Keeping the question "Have I found what I love?" aside... I think there are more questions for me to answer to myself... hope asking myself these questions daily would help!
  • What am I doing to realize what I like?
  • Did yesterday take me any closer to my dream and will today do?
  • Is this dream dependent on others too? Am I doing something to inspire them?
Apart from asking myself these questions... I hope the curve stays positive :)

Alan Cox on writing better software
This is what Cox had to say when speaking at the launch of an advanced technical computing group for Wales, run by IT Wales, part of Swansea University's computer science department.

"A large part of the software industry has never heard of the science of quality assurance - or if it has, it doesn't believe in it. Thus spake Alan Cox, Wales' most famous Red Hat employee and one of the most influential voices in the IT world"

Don't know how i missed this, but this is the first time read this article. The complete article can be found here...
