On 1st of July, 1981, I was born in Bangalore, India. Thank you for visiting my blog. I love travelling, blogging and music. I am a photography noob, learning and loving the art.
I blog here about software development — whatever I am thinking about or working on. I research and document things I find interesting with a public blog post, which I can easily find and refer to later. Hopefully other people will find these posts helpful, relevant, or interesting. I firmly believe that blogs are a two-way conversation, so I welcome email and comments — as long as they’re on topic, more or less.
Also, if you would like to contact me for any reason or just wanna chat, give me a shout at moc.liamg@doosqam.malsa I respond to all my e-mails, so fire away your questions!
Thanks for reading. Seriously. Godspeed! Follow @syedaslam
That is very nice to read about!
Cool blog you have.. The freebook box on the left side is rocking!
Good luck.
Hey that’s great! Is pratian into full fledged training? In that case, are you into kinda courseware material preparation?
Thanks for that. Yes Pratian is into Training. But, the Company is as well moving into Software development with our first e-Learning product.

Hi Aslam,
Nice blog. Makes a good read. Can u post more on going about learning Servlets and JSP. I have done with Core Java.
And what are the concepts one has to know in Core Java- Is it necessary to know networking and JDBC, and other stuff?
http://javaforyou.wordpress.com/
Hey Mohamed,
Thanks for that. I’ll definitely try posting more on Servlets and JSP. Yes it is necessary to know JDBC. With Networking, it depends on your interest and type of projects you do.
And “Other Stuff” ??
Once again thanx for the comment. You got a nice blog too.
Other stuff includes RMI, Native Methods, Advanced AWT, Advanced Swing,Distributed Objects. For JDBC which Database Provider works better or is easy to configure. Can u write a post on configuring JDBC with some databases? It would be great if u could do that. Thanks!!!
As I told earlier, it depends of your interests and kind of projects you do. But, I suggest learning RMI. It would help you learn EJB. Learning AWT and Swing, I suggest you to look at the design of those APIs. Swing is one of the most beautifully designed API. It would really help.
Coming to JDBC, the purpose of JDBC is provide an abstraction of the underlying database. Same steps are followed for configuration with almost all the databases. Anyways, I’ll do put a post explaining the ways of database configuration and some best practices.
I like the idea of “Suggest a Post”.. I’ll try putting something similar here..
Thanks!! Yeah the “Suggest Post” seems to be a good one to ask readers to suggest something. But i haven’t yet got any suggestions
Did u attend the June BOJUG meet?
Change your company in ur
Your rather uncharitable remark on my promotion of Ethernet against USB, in your USB article, compels me to send two links which easily describe the state-of-mind in your seemingly beloved nation. I have commented on the second blog-link, but as of the time of that commenting, it was submitted for Moderation, or in english, Censoring.

Hey Aslam,
I like this wordings…
“The beginning of knowledge is the discovery of something we do not understand”
Thank you.

Quote from Linus Torvalds: ‘Linux is bloated’.

He should have used the words – Non-elegant, Unnecessarily complicated, Pretentious, Moralistic, Totally unnecessary.
What will indians do now. The hero of millions of coolies, turned upon his creation ( well actually his Theft ).
Tavarich, You have earlier responded to my criticism of U…S…B… by asking why I use email if I hate it ( and other Commoner things ). Your blog’s response system requires a commentator’s email-id. So right after I send this comment I delete email-use forever.
A typical response to my long worded email was the equivalent of the mobile phone – looking at your phone’s number and seeing that You are not their Boss Man or their mother, cutting your call. If they do not know your number, there’s always ‘I am in a meeting, can you call later’.
I never kept a cell-phone, did not much use email, never hailed unknown people or otherwise with ‘Bosss’, and now quit email.
The Socialist World should call for a General Slaughter ( Qatl e Aam ) of this indecent, careless and uneducated way of supposed communication and of those who promote it.
Lastly, can You use a response system which does not use email-id, just the commentator’s name.
Salud.
Tavarich. Did you mean Tovarishch”?
No email, cell-phone or any other communication tool developed by this bloody IT industry.. then I wonder how do you communicate it at all you want to?
Oh, yeah! I got it.. you walk to their place. Call him. Take him to come chai ka dukaan. Have your conversation.. aaram se.. and then again set on a journey back to your place.
How intelligent and God, how much time you have man.. amazing.

Essentially I meant to say Comrade in Russian and I believe its spoken as Tavarich and Tvarich.
It seems, my friend, that Changayz Khan could have conquered the entire globe had he had the benefit of Gmail or Reliance India Limited’s Cell Phone. Pity that his empire only stretched from Mangolia to Venice.
And perhaps it is only the lowly Socialist – from Lenin to Saddam – who could think of only one and uneducated use of it. To arrange a meet over Telephone, and then, horrors of horrors, actually meet in person to talk over tea. Sacrilege. We also knew a bit about shortwave handsets. Well well well, we Socialists were quite in the depths of unpardonable ignorance. Why did we not learn from the gits ( Great Indian IT industry ). Why Revolucions and all that. Why did we not just get jobs. And at meet time, meet in the very natural way, chat rooms in the Art of Living website with the meeters as VR avataars. Bliss.
Idlers we Socialists. Now Indians, they know how to spend time.
Ah, I forget. Indians were actually living in the muddy backwaters of Saturnian moons till twenty years back. On their world, there was Cell Phone ten thousand years back. We Humans, plodded and laboured, until only fifty years back when the Soviet Republic and others were able to plan A-Rockets to the beyond. When we could only think of Mars in two weeks, You Indians actually had Faster Than Light ships. So the word Non Resident Indian has another meaning.

Salaam Tavarich,
I saw this :
[Russian tovarishch, from Old Russian tovarishch, sing. of tovarishchi, business associates, from Old Turkic tavar ishchi, businessman, merchant : tavar, wealth, trade + ishchi, one who works (from ish, work, business)
And this :
noun 1. tovarich – a comrade (especially in Russian communism)
tovarisch
Russia, Soviet Union, Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, USSR – a former communist country in eastern Europe and northern Asia; established in 1922; included Russia and 14 other soviet socialist republics (Ukraine and Byelorussia and others); officially dissolved 31 December 1991
companion, comrade, familiar, fellow, associate – a friend who is frequently in the company of another; “drinking companions”; “comrades in arms”

It original form uses ta-vaar in the beginning and not ‘to’ spoken as in the Urdu phrase ‘to kya’.
And how would one pronounce ish-ch in the last letters. Saying it is quite painful in the mouth. My spoken form, ta-vaa-rich, can be spoken without mouth-pain in both a lazy way and clipped way. I would say, ta-vaa-ish, is also speakable.
Perhaps a Russian-speaker in your audience can set right this minor debate.

Latest SpaceX news : SpaceX has tested first and second stages of its Falcon-9 rocket which can carry ( in nose-cone payload ) about 10 tons to LEO and about 5 tons to LEO. Also, their Dragon manned / luggage capsule is coming along fine, and actually they have three NASA-COTS demo flights to International Space Station in 2010.
Latest ISRO news : ISRO has gotten a 2013 payed flight on the Soyuz TMA spacecraft, which anybody in the world with 35 million US dollars can buy. In this case, there will be two “indians” antariksh-yaatri passengers plus the Russian pilot-commander. The Soyuz TMA cannot be taken above by ISRO rockets. Too big. And ISRO does not have capabilities to launch human flights. Maybe in twenty years. When the rest have already been on Mars.
Latest indian a-tech : The PM has invited Western companies to build more a-reactors in india for power generation.

So Tavarich, compare SpaceX and ISRO. The first about seven years old and the second, what, fifty or so.
And then the a-reactors.
Much use all those gold-medallists, bharat-ratnas came in for.
Every ready to ridicule You Know Who,
Jai Ho.
