Aim of this branch is just to express myself. To write down my thought motion. To make it easier to remember anything if I need it in future. Your comments are very welcome.

It would be really awesome to conduct an experiment to gather some actual data on the following. Given a choice of doing A or B in order to get yourself some pleasure, in circumstances, where they both gain about the same amount of pleasure, BUT, A cost less effort and may be not healthy to your body (cigarettes, narcotics, fat icecream cake, et cetera), and B cost relatively a lot of effort but it's completely harmless, in fact, it is wholesome (jogging, swimming, riding a bike, you name it), what would you prefer.

Wanna do that without people knowing they're being watched in order reflect the reality in a precise way.

Bored/ excited/ calm/ inspired/ are all fairly easy to manage and to be in emotional states. However, to deliberately consciously pass on from one to another isn't always such a piece a cake business. All of them correspond to a certain velocity being compared to mechanical object. And to change that velocity one has to make an effort accelerating or decelerating the object. That's what I call emotional acceleration.

Studying is formulating questions and finding answers for them.

Therefore, no information has to be before question is formulated. Otherwise it is mental slavery.

One trait I can not accept about doing science (the way it traditionally led in my institute) is I'm supposed to develop something totally new (innovational, noval, pioneer) already knowing HOW TO DO IT.

But new invention can not be done exploiting standard pattern/ technique or 10-steps scheme of success. I've to let something entirely new inside me without discussion if it is bad/ good/ pointless or anything already known.

That's more likely to be studying.

The task is to design an organizer which is a calendar with business to be done by the day it is written on. It must be easy to find the current day. It must be easy to figure out whether some job is done or not.

I guess I've found one more demonstration of a basic social law: to be successful (living with people) you have to know how to sell yourself. And sell as expensive as possible.

Concrete example this time is about certain type of boys&girls relationship when the lady is completely emotional (even if it is not appropriate sometimes) and the boy is totally calm. He just can't afford himself to show his emotions because otherwise he wouldn't be as successful as he is. Emotional control is a significant part of his success.

So, he needs a girl who demonstrates her thoughts and feelings quite expressive and emotional. He buys this favour. And she (as long as she doesn't have such success as the boy does) needs some advantages (money, fancy clothes, decoration, another luxury). So, she buys that by selling her emotional behaviour. It is barely a business though might look like love.

However, LABEL tag can't be applied to the A tag. For instance, next word is «connected» to the next anchor by the same LABEL tag. See, you click on that word, but it doesn't produce any action. One more interesting point is that there can be many words pointing to the same field. For example here is one more word connected to the same text input field.

There are several really important things to be done in bicycle performance no matter how long or hard it is going to be.

First one is water — water is so goddamn desirable and needed in bicycle physical excersize. It is much easier to get your resources and energy back when you are done with the bicycle. It is even way easier to wake up next morning if you had a bottle of plain water (better with a lump of lemon though).

Second thing is the seat height — set the height completely right for you. It'll save you lots of energy and muscles and pain.

The last third thing is that you should feel your bicycle as your own body. Cause bicycle is not something like jogging where you are only responsible for the body and how it works. You are responsible for the body AND FOR THE COMMUNICATION BETWEEN BICYCLE AND THE BODY. It is hard to overestimate the importance of that shit.

Some Internet web-servers (in fact all of famous and huge ones) place their lists of accessible and not so much accessible filenames into root directory in file called robots.txt. It was such a nice discovery for myself! Just try some of 'em:

• — Yandex™
• — Google™

For example, the Yandex™ offers you a Zen-search, or latest 20 requests, or even statistics sorted by city, keyword, month and so on. It was really amazing to figure out my mother city has the largest frequency on demands at Yandex™: the city is 4 times more active at the server! I'm amazed!

So, I'm going to try it at every server I usually attend in order to find some interesting nice stuff I have never known before :).

I found a very efficient way of organizing my desktop to place there a todo-list.

All this began when I recalled that I can use an html-page as a background for my desktop. So I can put barely everything I want to upon my desktop without painting or hacking Photoshop™. To me putting an agenda is very usefull because I watch it through all the day.

I also split these tasks accordingly to the ABC-system which says that tasks are to be divided into three categories: A, B, C.

• A-tasks are both time-critical and important;
• B-tasks are less time-critical (but they can become so soon) and less important;
• C-tasks that are not time-critical and not important.

Now, you can look at my example of html-based desktop.

I want entries to be hidden. Or opened dependent on user. It is user set property of an entry. The question is whether I want this option to be applied to all the entries at a moment or each entry should be opened or closed due to individual click?

Well of course I wanna hide 'em all by one click cause generally I wanted this option in lack of ordering. There is a total chaos in here. So there should definitely option to hide 'em all by one click. But the question is how to do that. I already tried identical id attribute of the div-tag. So I'm in search of a way to implement the option.

Keywords here are: div, id, name, display, visiblity, javascript.

Today I've seen a lot of people making their public presentations of scientific research works. And I've noticed some prominent peculiarities of behaviour and it's affect on success: how the audience perceives the material, how much information does the speaker tells.

The main idea of public performance is to be open to the audience. Otherwise, if you try to follow some prepared scheme strictly — try to remember some awesome prepared words or try to remember some numbers — you will definitely fail because your head is occupied by that shit.

Just try to relax your body. To relax your brains. To relax your tongue. And have fun.

As it was mentioned in the previous post, tags serve as coordinates in space of my interests. Some posts reflect mixed subjects consisted of many connected topics. Another posts are undivideable. First type of posts I mark with a set of tags, and the second one is single-tagged.

But as I grow older and older, some tags becomes divideable to a smaller ones. What should I do in these cases? I can add new ones and use 'em instead of divided one. Can use 'em simultaneously. Can leave the situation like it was before realizing the fact.

Since I want my post to be associated with my interests as accurately as it possible — I choose to add smaller divisors for a bigger tags as they come to my mind. And use more accurate divisors (tags) in cases when I'm quite sure where the post is situated.

For me tags technique is dividing all the content (I post on my web–site) by names, called tags. Some posts can be tagged by several tags simultaneously. Some tags are single–tagged. But there is no post without a tag.

Have been wondering about that for almost year: how to implement tags technique using only HTML and Javascript?

I think desktop–application GUI is much harder to design. Let me deliver some thoughts.

First of all, usually I write GUI that takes about one fourth of my desktop area. And it is much more difficult to put all the functionality inside a smaller area. For example, if you take web–design, usually you use all the screen area so it's like four times more place.

Secondly, when you write a desktop–GUI you deal with some graphical library using some programming language, that was rather written for producing algorithms than for GUI. Again, if you deal with HTML or some another markup–language, you think only about GUI, not about the language, cause it's much easier and isn't overloaded by some heavy stuff providing to design an operating system.

Finally, let me compare this two kinds of GUI with certain hardware devices that provide some definite functionality (like vacuum cleaner, teakettle or laundry washer) and computer that can, after some patches, perform that functionality somehow, not as good as those specific hardware devices do, I guess :). IMHO, in this comparison computer is desktop–GUI and hardware device is web–design.

The meaning is to use objects (written in some language) from a binary library not from a source code. So you can even use the object in different language environment than is was written in.

Every class that could be used further in COM technology must support IUnknown interface.

Why am I writing about this particular movie? I think you've noted that this is not a movie section of the site. Yeah, I can't place this picture there. But however I've got something to discuss.

First of all I was like those people in the movie last summer though it wasn't bad and unhappy. And also I worked at much more clean work too. So the first reason why am I writing about the movie is because I had a similar experience.

Secondly, I was always wondering about how the meat for the burgers is made. And there is a full description of the process in the movie.

Thirdly, I saw the Avril Lavinge which I used to listen a lot. And never saw her in movies. She is pretty similar to that image which her songs produce in my mind.

Fourthly, there are a lot of speaking on English, so the movie could be recommended as an educational stuff.

The only thing I don't completely like about the movie is that workers feel themselves as victims. But if you think about yourself as of victim you get yourself becoming a victim. Want a better life? Think about ways to achieve it. Visualize 'em. And it will happen for 100% if you really want it. That is why the movie isn't in the movies top list.

A dialog about the quality of burger meat

Parents conceal their wishfull behavoir from their own children (drinking hot drinks).

Black–black town, black–black house, black–black people, black–black mood.

Whiter than white clothes (father wears all day long a shirt and trousers; mother wears a long dress without any sexual peculiarities; they even sleep in these clothes).

Father is cold and rude. Mother is totally sensitive and almost doesn't use her brains.

Mark is very strong guy, and the father, Alex, is weak.

My summary

She began cheating on Alex because «he loved 'em all for his own pleasure». I do not understand this statement. Everybody does everything for one's own. Why did she make a family with that guy if he was so inappropriate for her?

The guy will be fine, I'm sure.

At first, let's think about similarities:

• > Both P&P generates new ideas (hi, Dennis) (*New idea is a way to solve some problem which (way) was never applied or published earlier. Sometimes NI simplifies solving the same problem. Sometimes NI solves innocent problems which were never solved. <Add yours>)
• > Both offers a technique to solve some kind of task or problem (whatever you mean) by sacrificing some another thing. (*A physicist typically says: this is the most important and everything else is much less. A programmer usually sacrifices performance.)
• > Both starts with letter p :).

The end product (*a thing that a regular human can use) of programming is computer software (CS). End product of physics is an innovation technology (InT) (for example, personal computer). Now I'm begging your attention: Period between some technique in programming was created and new CS is written is goddamn less that a period between a scientific theory created and an InT is made.

Thus here is the choice what to do. If you dream of making a lot of things that could be used in real life you choose programming. Otherwise you choose making physics that probably will someday bring a new exciting scientific theory, that probably will be transformed then into an InT.

As for me I choose programming, but it's also quite exciting sometimes to read some physical articles cause it's interesting.

I'm studying language permanently, so I can do that as well during a walk to an institute I study at or during some work requiring not extreme brain performance.

Microsot IE rocks as it always does

The solution is putting br tag right after the img tag. You won't believe but that indention disappears! (BTW, Opera and Mozilla don't display that fucking indention with br tag or without it. That was two hours of empiric work.

Once again, put br tag right after the img tag:

<div>
<img src="pic.jpg"><br>
</div>

Everyone has one's own way to express oneself using special words. Everyone has some certain interests. That's why the one uses appropriate words in one's journal or just in an article. My idea is quite simple: mark out the most frequent words in any given plan text document (or html-like documents).

For instance, you give 10 megabyte plain text file and want Semern to mark out only 20 the most frequent words from it.

Let's consider some fucking problems: word-identification and data-structure and data-representation.

Word identification (recognition)

Definitely I wanna count only meaningful words like: cup, boys, editor, joy, ... . Not "words" like: , . / () ^ am is are @ these # or even html-tags and html-params.

I can easily chop off punctual marks (further PM) (like comma, dot and others). But what about word - what is that?

Let's consider word as: set of letters (A-Za-z0-9) without PM. Seems ok, but what about: is or not no yes of this that these those them. Another way is to keep all these words (both auxiliary and meaningful) and then when we finish frequency calculations we perform the following:

while( LIST isn't empty )
{
   1. Take first WORD //It's the most frequent
   2. Compare it to every word in the BLACK_LIST
   3. if the WORD is in BLACK_LIST
       we throw the WORD away
      else
       we put the WORD in RESULT_LIST
}

where RESULT_LIST - is final list to show, BLACK_LIST - is prohibited words list and LIST - is list containing all words.

This method solves problem with auxiliary words, but it doesn't solve html-meta-data problem: these words (class value text-align cellspacing border margin padding display ...) are to be added in RESULT_LIST and we cann't exclude 'em because they do mean something sensible.

But we can say: we're gonna use only with plain-text and html-like (it means with angle-bracket tagged words) documents. Sounds good for me :)

Data structure

Which data-structure is the most appopriate (accesses value by key the most quickly) for creating dictionary with counters per each word. Piece of shit! I cannot understand how can I use this Hashtable-like classes. They don't provide fucking simple method of searching by key.

I can invent very strange structure by myself like: we have array of string and array of int and keep strings and counters in these two arrays on the same places.

Data representation

I.e. how do I imagine the final result:

-how many words to show;

-in what way.

Firstly, I definitely don't wanna see words from the BLACK_LIST.

Secondly, it should be variable amount of words, depending on how many words I have entirely. I.e. if the word exceeds 5% - we take it (considering it's not in the BLACK_LIST).

Thirdly, how should it look and feel like. We should know how many words we are going to show in the way that we can divide these words into groups with the same font size.

First beta-version results

This is Semern's output on Bjarne Stroustrup document describing his home site and programming:

c people more language use see why don classes programming code way iso standard edition cli languages good library one design

         Whole word amount: 13008
         Black word amount: 5704
         Clean word amount: 7304
Clean Distinct word amount: 2086

         Clean word amount: 169
Clean Distinct word amount: 127
        

Result on some poems of Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849):

raven many came tapping one chamber door door- nothing more floor maiden whom angels name here never before still heart soul word lenore above bust bird fancy thou tell quoth nevermore bore leave whose eyes o er thee prophet heaven sea annabel lee kingdom love beautiful

         Whole word amount: 1635
         Black word amount: 741
         Clean word amount: 894
Clean Distinct word amount: 528
        

You can also download the program for Microsoft .NET platform and have fun :)

UPD: And a version with graphical user interface (still beta though).

UPD (Apr 6 2008): version with word amount control and data displaying (no need to open the result file manually, moreover you can peek up the inline-html-code from textbox provided). Gosh, Semern allows you to get all the words (40KByte) from for example Mark Twain — Tom Sawyer book by just setting the word amount to 100%. It brings you only different words (filthy words are filtered by the blacklist.sbl file, you can provide yours).

Delegate class serves as an function which is to be defined at runtime. So we need some objects on which we are gonna work and some different actions (functions) that we can perform.

// Here is example demonstrating these functions
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;

namespace DelegateHomeTrainigs
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Random rand = new Random();
//                Console.Write( rand.Next(100) );

            Console.Write( DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks );
            Console.Write("\n");
            System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1);
            Console.WriteLine( DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks );
        }
    }
}
