What is missing in Kindle Fire

A $199 tablet! if it works as what I read and understand, it is a new beginning, a new step forward!

If iPad is an Apple, then this Kindle Fire is an Orange!

So what is missing is not really a Camera, or SD Card Slot or 64 GB HDD space… No, I don’t think so…

a true to its Predecessors, a free cellular service.. may a free 4G built-in, so customers don’t have to pay for connectivity rather pay for only what they are purchasing… just like it is in Kindle!

Keep it Simple and Progressive!

Probably what I would guess is, since the Tablet is primarily the digital goods, the Amazon prime doesn’t make sense if you are not shipping anything… oh! wait.. Amazon prime, your new monthly bill for 4G service on Kindle Fire…

Trust your Instincts

Sometimes it may be just as simple decision as which turn to take, when we are driving without a map.. or  making decision  to take in product roadmap to do in next 2 years..  there are many times, i wonder about my previous decisions.. did i trust my instincts.. or did i just went on with what others said…

Trusting our instinct is not about whether we are making a right decision or not..  Do I Believe in myself? If I don’t who else?

I remember when I finished my first consulting project 2 months ahead of given time, in 2000. and it was a dot.com crash time.. and it  took my employer 3 months to find a next project.. well.. to keep up with technology and anyway i was getting paid to be at home, moreover it was winter in Boston.. so i registered a website.. www.livingpartners.com… and the concept was to manage the accounting of houshold shared by those living Singles…  being myself.. taking notes in a paper and excel sheets.. who spent what and tallying every now and then…  who owes whom and how much… and so i did it.. i had a website.. a group can create an account.. and create members of the group..each can post what they spent.. i had regular categories/expense types.. or add your own types..and select who shares how much.. all click and save.. and anytime you can request to show a report of how much you spent.. and tallys with others spent on you.. and gives simple sheet of who owes how much to whom….      my roommates used to make fun of me…. as the website name livingpartners meant for pets etc… or take your wild imagination…

Later when i got busy with other projects/clients.. and i discontinued the livingpartners.com… Now may be this is not a great science I invented, but I came to know last year.. there is a  http://www.ioweyou.co.uk/ .. . by any means.. i don’t mean to say they copied my idea … i am glad someone else also thought of the same idea.. and built a business around it…

I always thought this is a neat idea.. and i always wanted to make it such a way.. to design this application to make this data available for more than just for sharing expenses.. and wanted to make it available for general websites like roommates.. kinda idea of what is social networking today…

Even in our every day, at work , at home… we are very creative and inventing as little as solving a simple problem.. when we do.. we don’t know how little it is or how big it is.. until we take the courage to trust our instincts…

SQL to get data for the last hour

If you have a date column, which can be unique to identify a row will make it easier to pull the rows that are added for any given hour, this simple one line query can come handy:

SELECT * FROM transactions

WHERE

  transactiondate

   between

DATEADD(hh,DATEPART(hh,GETDATE())-1,DATEADD(dd,0, DATEDIFF(dd,0,GETDATE())))

AND

DATEADD(ss,-1,DATEADD(hh,DATEPART(hh,GETDATE()),DATEADD(dd,0, DATEDIFF (dd,0,GETDATE()))))

Explaination:

@today : DATEADD(dd,0, DATEDIFF(dd,0,GETDATE()) –> this gives the today’s date with 00:00:00 timestamp

@last hour : DATEPART(hh,GETDATE())-1 –> gives last hour

DATEADD(hh,@lasthour,@today))  –> gives date time of today’s last hour ex: mm/dd/yyyy hh:00:00

next to get the last second of the previous hour, minus a second from the next hour

@currenthour : DATEPART(hh,GETDATE()) –: get current  hour with 00:00:00 timestame

DATEADD(ss,-1,DATEADD(hh,@currenthour,@today)))  — add -1 second on the current date/time to get the hh:59:59

 

Using CF Agent and Manager

Concept

Tools and Services:

• CF Agent – The Agent that collects and uploads data
  
• CF Agent Manager – To Configure CF Agent
  
• CF Web Service (https://cloudfunnel.com/webservice) – To communicate directly with CF Server and you can integrate into you existing application for custom solutions
  
• CF Website (https://cloudfunnel.com/<accountname>/Website – To visualize data that are being collected and available in the CF Server
  

The objective of the Tools is to collect data and upload the CF Server

Install one “CF Agent” on each Computer/Network location where data is collected

The CF Agent runs in the background and executes the configured jobs assigned to that Agent

You will use “CF Agent Manager” to configure “CF Agent”

Cloud Funnel Agent (CFA) collects data and uploads to Cloud Funnel Server (Azure SQL Server).

• Agent – a Network Location, where data will be collected
  
• Job – a set configuration that defines what data to collect (Data Source), and how often (Schedule).
  
• An Agent can have multiple Jobs, each job maintains is own data source and schedule
  

 

Configuring CF Agent

Step 1: Run CF Agent Manager

• Available directly at: https://cloudfunnel.com/downloads/cfam/cfam.application Or Menu link is available in CF Website:
  

 

• Login
  

• Create Agent(s) and Jobs(s)
  
• The Left site tree shows existing Agents and Jobs (will be empty/blank if none exists)
  

• Click “New Agent” from the Agents menu to create a new Agent
  

  
  

• Select the Agent that you want to add a new Job and Click “New Job” from the Jobs menu
  

 

 

 

• Creating a new Job, make sure to select the appropriate Job Type
  

• Configure the Database – the screen shot shows configuring SQL server express database in the local system where CF Agent Manager is being run with a trusted connection.
  

• Query should be written to always return new data, as each time job is executed by the Agent
  

  For example the following query below returns the transactions happened last hour, will be useful when the job is run every hour.
  

  SELECT * FROM transactions WHERE transactiondate between DATEADD(hh,DATEPART(hh,GETDATE())-1,DATEADD(dd,0, DATEDIFF(dd,0,GETDATE()))) AND DATEADD(ss,-1,DATEADD(hh,DATEPART(hh,GETDATE()),DATEADD(dd,0, DATEDIFF (dd,0,GETDATE()))))
  

  
  

• Unique Column(s) is optional, but very useful when query cannot be written to pull only new data. By defining the Unique column simplifies and CF Agent automatically pulls only new data.
  

For Example if the query is simply written as

    Select * from transactions

And then define a unique column as shown below:

• Here you enter a column name that is part of the query (select * from transactions should have column with a name transactiondate)
  
• Enter a default value to be used when a job runs first time, here since the job is never run, enter a value that will pull all the transactions when job is run first time
  
• Running Value – defined by a query or formula. (Note: formula will be available in future version)
  
• Enter a query that returns a scalar value, and this value will be retained each time job is run as per schedule
  

Explanation:

Let’s say first time the job is run on 4/25/2010 at 10 am, the database has data for the past 2 months. And you are creating a job that will be run every hour. But when the job is run first time, you will want all the data that is there in the database.    

• So you can enter a default value with a much older date : 1/1/2001, so when the query runs
  
• Select * from transactions where transactiondate > ’1/1/2001′ for the first time on 4/25/2010 10:00am.
  
• Since you have defined a unique column with a running value ‘select getdate()’, it keeps the value 4/25/2010 10:00 am.
  
• And when the job is run next hour, query runs like this (since the job is configured to run every hour):
  
• Select * from transactions where transactiondate > ’4/25/2010 10:00am’
  

 

• Here the schedule shows that is configured to run every hour
  

   

  
  

• After saving, you will on the left side
  

  
  

 

 

Uploading Data

• To upload data download and run the CF Agent on the system
  
• Available at https://cloudfunnel.com/downloads/cfa/cfa.application and also available in the website
  

  
  

• When run for the first time, it will ask to select an Agent, enter account, user and password and click Connect and then select the Agent (created earlier using CF Agent Manager) and Click Save
  

• After Clicking Save, you will the CF Agent Status Window, and you can minimize the window, it will hide and run in the background.
  

• You can anytime bring it from the system task tray:
  

  
  

• By double clicking on the Cloud Funnel Agent Icon you can bring back the CF Agent Status window

Cloud Funnel

Cloud Funnel : Data Transfer Service

	Cloud Funnel is proud to introduce the Data Transfer Service, that integrate instantly with any existing Applications using a combination of Web Service API and Cloud Funnel Tools. Typically collecting data from multiple geographically distributed locations is not every easy, from 3 party applications that are in many cases these locations will be in their own internet connection (DSL/Cable etc). Getting sensitive data, especially time-sensitive data, from one location to another becomes an enormous bottleneck. Writing custom code to collect and transfer by traditional means, and sharing the same data or a part of that data is often a over head and sometimes such requirement is only a short period of time. Often, Companies need to share the same data for backup or with other partners on a regular basis. The Cloud Funnel’s Data Transfer Service offers an instant solution to share this critical data easily, securely and quickly. Data can be collected within minutes and configured to share and consumed by any applications using Web Services API Quickly and easily.
How It Works Cloud Funnel uses desktop tools to pick up your data, and a high-speed backbone to transport your data instantly to the Cloud Database. Your data can be encrypted with your own encryption key as it is transferred onto the Cloud Database. Only you and the recipient (using Cloud Funnel API) have access to the encryption key to decrypt your data, so your data is protected en route, before being transmitted over the Cloud Funnel Storage backbone. Once transported to the Cloud, Using Web API you can integrate with your existing application or using Cloud Funnel’s your own private website to access your data from anywhere in the world.
	Tools Our Tools offer the highest level of user friendliness in the whole setup process right. Cloud Funnel offers these following tools : Cloud Funnel Agent (CFA): The Desktop Software Module that collects data as per the Job Schedule Configuration Cloud Funnel Agent Manager (CFAM) : The Desktop Software Module that configures the CFAM. Cloud Funnel Web Service (Private Web Service) : The Core Web Service (API), that provides functionality to read and write data to the Cloud Database. Cloud Funnel Web Site (Private Website) : A Web Application to access the data in the Cloud Database.

TSQL – Getting every day of the Current Month

This came handy, when i wanted to get all dates of the current month when joining with mutiple tables… and not all the tables  had all dates of the month

;WITH
   CTE0 AS(SELECT 1 AS c UNION ALL SELECT 1),
    CTE1 AS(SELECT 1 AS c FROM CTE0 AS A, CTE0 AS B),
CTE2 AS(SELECT 1 AS c FROM CTE1 AS A, CTE1 AS B),
CTE3 AS(SELECT 1 AS c FROM CTE2 AS A, CTE2 AS B),
  SeqNumbers AS(SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY c) AS SeqNumber FROM CTE3)

SELECT SeqNumber,CONVERT(VARCHAR(12),(GETDATE()-(DAY(GETDATE())-SeqNumber)),101) AS ReportingDate
FROM
    SeqNumbers
WHERE SeqNumber <=    DAY(GETDATE())

Fake House Rental Ad in Craigslist

This Monday morning I got a call from a lady claiming to be renting my house and she saw my ad in the Craigslist and if I still in USA or Africa?

The ad which i was not totally aware. and she confirmed that she is working with her Aunt a realtor. Though i told her, we are not looking for tenants now and if required she can talk to my Property Manager. and Then I talked to my property Manager, he said he did get calls asking how authentic we are in renting the house.

I got to know more from my property manager, that that lady is a MBA student and had already sent $800 twice!!!. Which I still wonder how someone would send money without meeting in person or any kind of information, I could not get hold of them to get more details.

Anyway, I am now worried there is someone using my name, created a fake email address with my name. and renting my house in Craigslist.

What Can I do?

Nothing. I searched all over the internet, I could report in www.ic3.org, and talk to my friends. and that’s it. There are several other news similar to rental scam like this, and apparently largely from Nigeria.

 

I had someone investigate this and give me more details on this:

1. A Yahoo email created using my name: vontlinsriprabuc@yahoo.com   — of course you can send email to the person who is running this scam.
2. IP Address used to send email communication for those who responded to the ad:

Samsung Omnia – Verizon Wireless

I recently changed my phone  to Samsung Omnia, amazingly it  has lot of cool features and performs decently without disappointing too much.

What is good.

1. Phone with a laptop style mouse, comes handy when it is hard  to press keys in virtual keyboard
2. Side bar like in VISTA – another  cool feature, comes handy with limited widgets!!!
3. FM Radio
4. About 4 types  of virtual keyboards, not all the best.. but once you get used to it, can’t complain much
5. WIFI – I think this is windows mobile – very easy to configure and pops up whenever it finds a network
6. Opera browser is nice, but  it is  much better with www.skyfire.com  – generally on any windows  mobile
7. Camera – never had  such a good experience in a Phone camera before.. really nice.. see some pictures I took

this is a one click – point and shoot panorama photo without much effort..

View Full Album

 

What is not good!

1. GPS – I wish it worked better without having to disconnect my phone/broadband – and again, when i do it doesn’t work with google maps or Live Search
2. Even after selecting  not to notify on a wireless network, it keeps notifying – little  annoying
3. Battery Life – it was good until i  configured my email, once i configured my email to check every 5 minutes. i have to recharge twice a day – this is again depends on individual user preference
4. FM Radio doesn’t work on Bluetooth stereo headset

Searching through Stored procedure code using TSQL script

Even if you have a refactoring tool, sometimes i wonder what are all the storedprocedures that uses this table that starts with ‘products_’  or ‘system_’… or all the tables that have a column name ‘status_id’….

so here is the script that scans all the stored procedure code, and check if the table name is found

Note  —this will also return if the table name is in the comment too.. so the logic is, even if you want to search any text (comment) in a stored procedure
