			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sure has been one hell of day, today. Starting early to office just got me stuck in traffic for an hour. I burnt the whole day trying to get <a href="http://roundup.sf.net">Roundup</a> work with Apache. Then ended up deploying <a href="http://www.bugzilla.org">Bugzilla</a>. And, bugzilla has a global numbering scheme for bug IDs. :-S Grr.. The entire drive back home, I had to tell myself not to get to writing yet another bug-tracker, just to scratch my itch. </p>
<p>Back home, a stupid injury forced me to cut the run short at 6k. Now, I&#8217;ll have to nurse this thing for the next two days. Ants have invaded my bed, and have effectively evicted me out of the bed room.</p>
<p>Shyte.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Refactoring code that is &#8220;running&#8221; fine, is the next biggest mistake that you can do. Especially when all you require is a 100+ line modification to get that bug fixed in the dirty way. The fact that it looks extremely ugly and that it could get worse when you try to hack a patch on top of a hack, still just not justify it. Simply because, it _is_ running fine no matter how fugly it looks. A refactor sure does put you back on the path to nirvana, but only after a painful bunch of sleepless nights.</p>
<p>If you brave it and go ahead with the refactor, the FUD that your subconscious generates while in the process is not even funny. As you do the next best design for world domination, your FUD-subconscious is silently calculating the broken parts of the application. And before you realize, your &#8216;deliverable application&#8217; just became a &#8217;still-in-development application&#8217; :-/ Not something that should happen when your deadline was yesterday. Slowly it becomes a war of reasoning between the &#8216;FUD-subconscious&#8217; and the &#8216;Optimist-subconscious&#8217;. As the pain increases, the damage caused by the refactor starts to out-weigh the pros. Thats the time when the FUD-subconscious starts pushing in ideas of abandoning the refactor and going on with the 100+ line fugliness. You might even apply it, reconsider, revert the fugliness and get back to refactoring, a couple of times.</p>
<p>All the while, silently reassuring yourself that this pain is not for nothing. That this pain is for more than just beautiful looking code. That this pain is to make sure you dont have to go through this again in the future. That this pain is actually for something useful. That once its done, it shall open up limitless possibilities. Whether those &#8216;limitless possibilities&#8217; are required, only time can tell :-/ It is very likely that those &#8216;limitless possibilities&#8217; would never be realized, ever.</p>
<p>Hmm.. Why then?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It was quite a tiring day today. After going through a 600+ page document and preparing a cost estimate, which I am not quite sure is gonna get through, I was really not in the mood for anything. And, then this piece of junk falls &#8216;plonk&#8217; in front of me. </p>
<p><a href="http://www.therockthunder.com/MINISTRY/Jan2009/ACandMC.htm">http://www.therockthunder.com/MINISTRY/Jan2009/ACandMC.htm</a></p>
<p><a href="http://c0le.org/wp/2009/06/30/national-id-cards-ye/comment-page-1/#comment-47">http://c0le.org/wp/2009/06/30/national-id-cards-ye/comment-page-1/#comment-47</a></p>
<p>Now did that shit make me smile? No. It like threw me off the chair and got me rolling over crying in laughter. I have seen &#8216;idiots&#8217;. I have seen &#8216;fools&#8217;. I have seen &#8216;morons&#8217;. I have seen &#8216;religious dumb fucks&#8217;. But no, I have not seen &#8216;dumb fucking idiotic moronic religious fools&#8217;. Sorry for all the profanity. But, you just made my day boy. Totally.</p>
<p>Now now, lets get a bit serious. Whether the number 666 is indeed the &#8216;Number of the Beast&#8217;, is questionable. Apparently you have a &#8216;616&#8242; which is also considered as the &#8216;Number of the Beast&#8217;. Now, I know you&#8217;ll argue that since the &#8216;holy fcking book&#8217; says that 666 is the &#8216;Number of the Beast&#8217;, it is so. I also know for a fact that you dont even want to know that the silly &#8216;holy fcking book&#8217; you swear by is the blabber of some random drunk/smoked-up rabbi. </p>
<p>I am dumbfolded by the hypocrisy of you morons. On one side you preach against numerology and other occult practices. And, on the other you believe so strongly on the same. If you got to believe the &#8216;holy fcking book&#8217; by the word, then well, Jesus made barrels of wine at Cana so that all the folks there can drink and be merry. And, well.. dont give me that shit about Jesus&#8217;s wine not being alcohol. Best of all, Jesus did not mention a single word about abortion or pre-marital sex. So, please shut the fuck up and stop trying to feed me your crap.</p>
