"What Do You Care What Other People Think?: Further Adventures of a Curious Character" by Richard P Feynman

Luckily found the book in a book-shop. More anecdotes. Challenger experiences are must read for engineers and managers.

Fish Fingers

Mr.Monsoon seems to be arrived in Bangalore. Sunny days after heavy rain are pleasant.

We had dinner at 'The Rice Bowl'. The food is really great. We had fish fingers, prawn and chinese noodles.

Picked up collected fiction by Ruskin Bond. Reminds me of short stories by Anton Chekov.

Robert Love's book is a pleasant read.

Processor is doing one of the following things at any given time
- Process context
- User space program
- Process less interrupt handling

But when scheduler runs? Who preempts a process?
Got to dig some more.

Its Raining

Afterall I did not have to wait for The Monsoon. Its raining heavily in here in Pune. Its more like a thunderstorm, its wet everywhere, roads are flooded with water (they forgot to the sanitation part of roads). Power has vanished so that people like me are made to come out of their home and blog :)

I am re-thinking my plans to greet Monsoon in Trivandrum in June.
