Flying to the light

I just had a thought about humans and this whole wold. The technology is growing so fast. During the last century most of the advanced technologies came in to existence. Now I can simply video chat with my friend in USA, send him photos, sync with him and work on same task., and do so many things with the current technologies. Within another century we might be able to contact other lifeforms in the universe if we were able to develop our technologies like this. Shouldn't we be happy about that and be energetic. I don't think so..
Y?
There are 100 to 200 billion galaxies in the Universe, each of which has hundreds of billions of stars. There has to be billions of civilizations out there. If the technology can be sustainably develop in to such a state that we are able to travel through Universe and contact other life forms, there has to be some one trying to contact us right now. But there aren't any.. So what does that tells us? It simply says we can't build the technology without destroying our selves.

So if you are developing next generation technology, you are a fly going toward the light.

Using javascript to Include a html file inside another html file

When there is no server side functionality needed we create the whole site in plain html. Usually these sites have left/right side menu, top header, footer etc.. If the site grows in to 20, 30 pages, it will be a headache to do a simple change like changing footer text. We will have to change each page. If we were using a server side technology like PHP, JSP, etc.., we will have the chance to keep the common areas in the site in different pages and include these parts in each page using a “include” statements. We can do the same thing with the plain old html and javascript. But how? First you need to create the site main layout using divs and give them unique ids. <html> <title>HTML Includes</title> <script language="javascript" src="js/main.js"></script> <script src="js/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script language="javascript" xml:space="preserve"> // <...

APIM 3.0 - populate multiple apis - bash script

Overriding default look and feel of GREG - 5.3.0

Following list explains what are the best approach for different use cases. 1 ) - You created a new asset type, and you need to change the look and feel of the details page in the listing page just for that new asset type. To create a new asset type you need to login to the carbon console (username:admin, password:admin) https:// :9443/carbon/ Navigate to Extensions > Configure > Artifacts Click "Add new Artifact" link at the bottom of the page. By default in the "Generic Artifact" area "application" asset type is loaded. Note the shortName="applications" in the root node. "applications" is the name of the asset type. Browse in to /repository/deployment/server/jaggeryapps/store/extensions/assets Create a folder with name "applications" Now we can override the files in /repository/deployment/server/jaggeryapps/store/extensions/app/greg-store-defaults Since we are overriding the details page we need to...
