Heaven_on_Earth

I read wikipedia about the movie we watched yesterday

"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Videsh:_Heaven_on_Earth"

In my opinion, its all about observation, one can read feelings on the top
surface, and there are not many waysto express what is going inside. God
has given us smile and expressions of anger and sorrow. But human soul goes
through infinite cycles of happiness and despair. Combination of various
factors of one's life reflect on one's face, and since medium could be
only of three ( smile, anger, sorrow), humans are forced to look one of
these.
Now you could decide to read only one of these three and categorize people
accordingly.
or you could deep dive in one's surroundings, soul and life, and try to
feel what one is feeling.
So Rocky ko gussa bahut nahin aata tha.

and here is the quote

"But soon optimism turns to isolation as the family she has inherited
struggles beneath the weight of unspoken words, their collective
frustration becoming palpable. No one feels the pressure more than Rocky,
weighed down by familial obligations. A controlling mother who can't let
him go, a sweet but ineffectual father, and a sister whose two children and
unemployed husband are also a burden. All live with Rocky and Chand in a
two-bedroom house in the suburbs of Toronto. To make matters worse, Rocky
is expected to find the money to bring his extended family to Canada.
Unable to express his anger, he finds other ways to release it and it's
Chand who bears the brunt of his repressed rage."

Real Programmers Don't Eat Quiche

Real Programmers Don't Eat Quiche

o Real Programmers don't eat quiche.
They like twinkies, coke and palate-scorching Szechwan food.

o Real Programmers don't write applications programs.
They program right down on the bare metal.
Applications programming is for the dullards who can't
do systems programming.

o Real Programmers don't write specs.
Users should be grateful for whatever they get:
They are lucky to get any programs at all.

o Real Programmers don't comment their code.
If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand
and harder to modify.

o Real Programmers don't document.
Documentation is for simpletons who can't read listings or
the object code from the dump.

o Real Programmers don't draw flowcharts.
Flowcharts are the illiterate's form of documentation.
Cavemen drew flowcharts; look at how much good it did for them.

o Real Programmers don't read manuals.
Reliance on a reference manual is the hallmark of the novice
and the coward.

o Real Programmers don't write in RPG.
RPG is for gum-chewing dimwits who maintain ancient payroll programs.

o Real Programmers don't write in COBOL.
COBOL is for COmmon Business-Oriented Laymen who can't run a
business, much less write a real program.

o Real Programmers don't write in FORTRAN.
FORTRAN is for wimp engineers who wear white socks.
They get excited over finite state analysis
and nuclear reactor simulation.

o Real Programmers don't write in PL/1.
PL/1 is for insecure anal-retentives who can't
choose between COBOL and FORTRAN.

o Real Programmers don't write in BASIC.
Actually, no programmer writes in BASIC after reaching puberty.

o Real Programmers don't write in APL,
unless the whole program can be written on one line.

o Real Programmers don't write in LISP.
Only idiots' programs contain more parenthesis than actual code.

o Real Programmers don't write in PASCAL, BLISS, ADA, or any
of those other sissy computer science languages. Strong typing
is the crutch for people with weak minds.

o Real Programmers' programs never work right the first time.
But if you throw them on the machine they can be patched into
working order in only a few 30-hour debugging sessions.

o Real Programmers never work 9 to 5.
If any Real Programmers are around at 9:00 am,
its because they were up all night.

o Real Programmers don't play tennis, or any other sport which
requires a change of clothes. Mountain Climbing is acceptable.
Real Programmers wear climbing boots to work in case a mountain
should suddenly spring up in the middle of the machine room.

o Real Programmers disdain structured programming.
Structured programming is for compulsive neurotics who were
permanently toilet trained. They wear neckties and carefully
line up sharp pencils on an otherwise clear desk.

o Real Programmers don't like the team programming concept.
Unless, of course they are the chief programmer.

o Real Programmers never write memos on paper.
They send memos via computer mail networks.

o Real Programmers have no use for managers.
Managers are a necessary evil. They exist only to deal with
personnel bozos, bean counters, senior planners, and other
mental defectives.

o Real Programmers scorn floating point arithmetic.
The decimal point was invented for pansy bedwetters who are
unable to "think big."

o Real Programmers don't drive clapped-out Mavericks.
They prefer BMW's, Lincolns, or pick up trucks with floor shifts.
Fast motorcycles are highly regarded.

o Real Programmers don't believe in schedules.
Planners make up schedules.
Managers "firm up" schedules.
Frightened coders strive to meet schedules.
Real Programmers ignore schedules.
