intelligent stupidity, yes, that’s how I call it, as long we humans use our intelligence to accomplish stupid goals then we must be stupid but with a strange kind of stupidity which I call it intelligent stupidity. It’s when you accomplish a very high rate of intelligence but yet you use it for stupid causes. Look around you and see the technological advancements that humans had accomplished so far but yet we still wage wars for the same causes that cave men waged there first own wars. We still wage wars out of irrational hate. We still kill people for stupid causes and with what? With the most advanced weapons that we have developed using our great intelligence, but still we can’t use this great intelligence to think rationally to stop these stupid wars. The existence of wars is by it self the most powerful evidence of how humans are still unable to solve there problems without killing each others, the ability of solving problems is one of the most major abilities that defines intelligence, and yet we can’t solve our own political problems which is far more easier than the scientific problems that we already solved. Do you think decoding the DNA gnome was easier than Israel-Palestine problem? Do you think landing on moon was easier than Iraq problem? We wage wars for stupid reasons and people die for stupid reasons, why can’t we just live in peace and leave the war thing for video games? Solving problems by killing others is pure stupidity. Why others have to suffer your stupidity? Why anybody should suffer? Whatever your causes or reasons it mustn’t collide with the most important human ethics, not killing each other. If your causes will inflect pain or suffering on others then your causes must be stupid. If you think that your causes are great and glorious enough to allow you to kill others then you are stupid and you are no better than the cave man. Killing each other won’t solve any problems but in fact will cause more problems to appear. We used our most technological advancements to fulfill our most barbaric dreams, to throw death from the sky using highly advanced nuclear bombs, or to strike our enemies with the sickness using the last technological human advancement in DNA engineering to manufacture new kinds of viruses that never existed before that is far more lethal than what our medicine is still trying to cure. Those barbaric dreams that became true thanks to our human intelligence prove nothing but we are stupid. We are the most intelligent race of earth but yet we kill each others like the most stupid animals do, and with what? With weapons that proves how intelligent we are, pretty ironic isn’t? That’s what I call definitely intelligent stupidity.

A list with most of the will known software development classic mistakes

happy birthday google and thank you for all knowledge you helped me to find :)

Oh, I’m having flu AGAIN, that is really bad. Why bad?  Good question, flu is caused by a nasty virus that doesn’t just destroy your cells, it consumes your cells and make toxins that inflame your tissues raise your temperature and give you headaches and make you dizzy all the day. That bastard doesn’t just take what it wants it also gives you a really bad time. So I’ve tried every available possible medicine to kill this nasty virus or remove its symptoms (did I mention before that I spent 3 years in pharmacy collage before I change my career, and oh yeah my father and brother are both pharmacists and my sister study microbiology and we own 2 pharmacies and a medicine factory, didn’t I mention that? No? Ok)  and you know what? All of these medicines have failed, so if you asked me about how I see it, as a professional software developer these medicines have failed its test cases thus these medicines are defected and doesn’t function as required. But “these medicines” some how almost can cover every known medicine that be taken to cure the flu, so I’m not generalizing  here but almost all known medicines are defected by default because they don’t do what they are supposed to do and beside that they give undesirable side effects. Unlike software usually software do what it’s supposed to do “without” side effects and when it fails to do so you can report it as a bug so you can get a patch to repair it and make it function as expected per your requirements. Can you report a bug for Glaxo? I think not. So I got this idea (maybe it’s the side effects of the heavy medicines I have been taking) what if in the near future they invented a Human SDK where you as a software developer can use it for the better of human species. For example instead of going to the doctor you can do something like this.Diagnose() so you can know your illness source (maybe you can get a stack trace too). Or maybe you can cure your self by doing something like this.Cure(). Also when you have sleeping disorder you can simply use the famous method this.Sleep(). And if you need a better physique you can do something like this.Muscles[“skeletal”].enlarge() (you can use this for other organs too). Of course you should specify the skeletal muscles to be enlarged only because you don’t want to have problems with your heart muscle. And of course it would be better to use this.MakeLove(wife) which will be far better than the buggy Glaxo blue bill. And of course you can set the flag this.wife.bNoChildren to be false any time you want to without any long debates about it or accidental stuff. And the best of all would be this.wife.Sleep() (by the way I don’t know about your favorite coding standards but I’m using mine). Wow it would be splendid great life but of course like any software exceptions may arise so don’t forget to use try-catch blocks. 

i've always asked that question specially every time the ants have ruined a meal for me. how can that small tiny creature find my food in an average of 150 square meters? even when i put my food in plastic bags they still manage to find it!! so i decided to google it and guess what, ants use an optimization algorithm that we mimic to solve several problems

No Silver Bullet, I was always wondering about the source of this phrase

hello guys, for whom ever is preaching the superiorty of Unix here is something you will like ;) 

Yes, we are losers, as in the past 5 decades we kept losing everything and in everything. We kept losing football matches, we always lose the market, we took a very big zero in the Mondial, we lost several political battles, we lost several brilliant brains to foreign countries, we lost billions for telecommunication companies, we lost several lives in several stupid accidents and we just keep losing. So why? Why Egyptians always lose? Because we Egyptians are such a pathetic negative losers whom can’t do any thing by them selves, we can’t even stand in a straight line by our selves. Before we do any thing we always ask, why me? Why not him or her? Why should I do this thing? Why should I do it first? So we usually just wait for the others to do it on behalf of us and we always wait in the end of the line pushing everybody else to do it first but not us, so our imaginary illusionary “everybody else” whom will come to rescue us and do our business for us never show up and our business stays undone, that’s why nothing move in this country. We always know the right thing to do and we always know how to do it and we keep preaching others of why to do it and how to do it, but when it comes to doing any thing positive in this country every body just stands still doing nothing waiting for everybody else to make a move first. That’s exactly why we are such a pathetic helpless losers. The funniest part ever when it comes to when we claim that we want to help other countries while we can’t even help our selves. That’s my dear readers is root of all evil in Egypt, our negativeness, that’s why thieves are stealing our country and run away or sometimes they even stay to steal more while they show on TV’s as heroes and stars. That’s why Egypt has become a political doll that is played by whom ever can pay. That’s why Egypt most important resources are sold for the foreigners because we the Egyptians can’t run and use these resources for our profit. We all know the government is corrupted to its core, we talk about it, we write about it and we preach people to do something about it but nobody dares to move a finger because we are all waiting for somebody else to do it first then we “might” follow. We are always waiting for somebody to lead us but no one wants to be a leader and go first and when a real leader is found no body follows because we don’t want be the first to follow.  That’s why we are just a bunch of pathetic negative losers. 

This bomb flattened several buildings and barbecued a tank and turned the land into luner like

it's the FOAB the russian version of the MOAB, but a more advanced one

today as usual at every night i was browsing the net and reading blogs looking for new stuff to ease my boredom

i found this interesting post, it's an old one but i liked it

it's actually about chinese cars safety factors and how does it go bad in crash tests

so i thought how would it be like for good cars?

cars like BMW? (i've some respect to this car)

there is really a big differance

Oh, Programming? it's so easy, it will just take ten years to learn

Awareness is what differentiates us humans from the machines we make. The machine is not aware of its existence but we are. The machines could be made to look like it’s aware of things but in fact it isn’t. Are we really aware the way we think we are? Sometimes we do things that we are not aware of, for instance our hearts beats all the time without us being aware of it all the time, we only be aware of it when we focus on it but most of the time we don’t, it’s just there beating all of our lives giving us life without us being aware of it all of the time although it gives us life and it gives us our existence that enables us in the first place to be aware of things, quite ironic isn’t? What else? Our breath? Our digestion system? Our metabolism? Humans sometimes tend to do things automatically without even being aware of it. We walk automatically, we drive automatically and sometimes we just eat automatically just like machines, doing things without knowing that it’s happening. Awareness could be expanded to other things too, for instance are you aware right now of the gravity? Some people do, some people know what is gravity is but they are not aware of it all the time and some don’t even know what is gravity is or who is Newton is and what is his gravity rule in the first place. We know that water is H₂O but some don’t, and they just drink it without being aware of what it’s made of or why they drink it for. Imagine how much ignorant uneducated people are living among us without being aware of the most basic things in our life, just like monkeys jumping from a tree to another manipulating several rules of physics for speed and torque and acceleration without even knowing what gravity is. So what differentiate us from monkeys? Beside our intelligence and superiority to other species and advanced mental ability, we are more aware of our existence than monkeys do and that is because of our knowledge. In fact the more aware we are the more human we are. The awareness definition its self is changing as long the human race is developing, so the more we are aware the more we are developed and the more we are developed the more we are aware. Our humanity is driven from our awareness which if didn’t existed we wouldn’t be able to define humanity in the first place, we would be just another monkey like species, jumping from a tree to another driven by our instincts without knowing why. So again, are we really fully aware of our existence? Are we aware of every thing we do? Sometimes I just feel that I’m not fully aware of what is happening around me. Sometimes I just stand there staring at nothing thinking about nothing and paying attention to none. Sometimes I feel like I’m doing things automatically without thinking about it, like typing on the keyboard now or coming up with ideas to write or writing in English. Sometimes I don’t feel time passing by, time just evaporates with me just setting there doing nothing or sometimes doing something automatically without being aware of doing it. people tend to not feel things that always been there the same way we don’t hear the sounds that was there for a long time, for instance the air conditioner, the opened TV, the street noise, the florescent light buzz and my breath. Sometimes I just set there listening to music till I forget about it and just sleep although it’s usually heavy metal playing on a hi-fi system with screaming loud speakers. Sometimes I answer the most complicated technical questions without being aware of it; the words just flow out of my mouth although I didn’t memorize them before. Sometimes I come up with creative ideas without knowing where they came from, they just come and I don’t know how. I feel like there is some parts in my brain that I’m not consciously aware of, these parts work in parallel to my conscious doing things more than just reflexes, they think for me, they speak for me. It’s the mystery of our human brain that enabled us to define things but yet we are not able to define our selves. Look deep in your self and tell me if your really feel fully aware of your self. 

There are some gossips on the network guessing that google may buy facebook for a $2 billion, which is a really big sum of money, but considering that  according to alexa facebook now is ranked number 10 we might need to think again about it

the funny thing that i've found out that Egypt is listed on alexa as one of the most countries that uses facebook and facebook is ranked at Egypt higher than google

This is some funny article about validation, u know most of us developers tend of be nazies when it comes to validation :D 

this is *cool*
