How banks create money? Dulu waktu undergrad aku pernah belajar Economics, ada satu tajuk yang aku pernah baca berkenaan banking. Teringat benda ni pasal aku guna credit card (Visa dan Mastercard). Tujuan asal nak bawak ke Beijing,jadi tak perlu bawa banyak cash. Bahayanya credit card ni ialah kemampuan mengawal nafsu membeli belah. Semalam aku nak beli satu kitab (Himpunan Hadith Sahih, tulisan Drs Abdul Ghani, disusun mengikut topik), tapi sebab ada kredit kad, aku beli complete 3 jilid+1 kitab Asbabun Nuzul al-Quran. Total RM175(asalnya RM190,aku mintak kurang sebab aku beli 4 buku,hehe,patutnya CASH transaction je yang biasa orang tawar,sebab kedai kena bear kos credit card usage). Anyway, hopefully pintu rezeki akan terbuka, dari jalan yang tidak disangka-sangka. Baca satu topik berkaitan credit card di ITTUTOR Kalau kita bayar on-time(macam aku, aku tak nak tangguh-tangguh,nanti lupa bayar)-aku rasa bank tak boleh buat duit on credit card. hehe. Wallahua'lam.

Satria: My Car At last, my car. (the photo,however is not mine ;-) ) . After struggling with bank and distributer,at last I got my Satria to ride. First trip? My friend's wedding in Ipoh. Even manufactured in 1996, the car seems nice(with minor things to be repair e.g reverse sensor). Second hand car however, have to deal with high interest rate. Thiking to switch to Bank Islam afterwards after looking at their lower rate(of course I have to support Islamic Banking, rite-though with those RM700 millions corruption dodos).

Turn 2006..... gosh! Growing up, means more responsibility+have to be more mature(given your face looks mature and your age number increase at increasing rate). Hope to act childish forever but work environment and people you dealing with not always welcoming that :-) Actually I got a dream(well, it's always like that when it comes to $$$ sucking stuff) to buy a digital camera. So I jump here. Asked some friend and my bro, they came out with technical jargon such stabilizer etc. Hem, buying digital camera is also not that easy. I expecting to buy Got a glimpse on Lumix(panasonic) with Leica Lens. Also got Olympus and Sony pamphlet in my hand. But my bro told me those last two using different memory card unlike Canon(SD card). -just wondering why should I bother with expensive memory card when it was like one-time expenses? Or you guys got any suggestion? I plan to buy a digital camera which can take pix on the run(in moving vehicle for e.g). So do I need SLR lens here? Or just the ...

Beijing and image manipulation addict Salam, Image manipulation with command line is fun and time consuming too. Given my Digikam plugins unable to work, I start to figure out many wonderful features of other tool which offer almost the same quality. However I was stucked with ImageMagick,with many tutorial on the net: Here and Here for i in *jpg ;do convert -font helvetica -fill white -pointsize 18 -draw 'text 10,50 "ACM-ICPC Beijing 2005"' $i $i;done The pix above shows a heater to heat up guest room during ACM-ICPC competition. (outside building's temperature is almost 4 celcious).

Buat HTML Thumbnails guna command line Saja jek,coz saya nak create html thumbnails guna digikam ,tak nampak lak plugin tu kluar even dah emerge on Gentoo. Short cut,guna command line bash saja,dengan syarat imagemagick dah diemerge. katakan saya ada berpuluh-puluh fail JPG dan nak letak pada laman web, buat satu direktori, mkdir th buat thumbnail: for i in *.jpg; do convert -sample 25%x25% $i th/$i ; done buat html thumbnail: for i in *.jpg ; do echo " src=\""th/$i\""> " >> index.html; done (kena escape " dengan \" kalau tak readable oleh for loop). digikam punya html plugin tak jalan,terpaksa guna CLI. siap!

Ni hao ma! Baru balik dari Peking malam tadi, dah kena masuk office. Soalan paling tak nak dengar, how's the competition? :-) Guess what. We are far from ACM, yet. Nak cari competence trainer pun actually not easy task. I bet you guys considering many things before go into ACM next time. Apapun, we learn a lot from this wonderful journey....
