It is introduced by Unix operating system, , standardised in POSIX. The clock is used not just by Unix, but also by Linux, Java, JavaScript, Mac OS X, and various other technologies.
In the fields of chronology and periodization, an epoch means an instant in time chosen as the origin of a particular era. The "epoch" then serves as a reference point from which time is measured. Time measurement units are counted from the epoch so that the date and time of events can be specified unambiguously.
<blockquote><strong>On Friday, February 13th 2009, 23:31:30 UTC, it will be exactly 1,234,567,890 seconds since the beginning of Epoch Time, which was on midnight of January 1, 1970. So it's the time for Unix nerds to celebrate 1234567890 :-)</strong>

<p>Yesterday I attended the Adobe Creative Suite CS4 Grand Unveil seminar at Muscot hotel, Trivandrum. The scheduled time was 9.15 and we reached there at correct time. I was already a registered user for this seminar; I got Adobe Hand Voucher from the registration counter. This Registration process went for an hour and the seminar started at 10.15.</p>
<p>The first seminar was about the <strong>Adobe Bridge</strong>.</p>
<em>Adobe Bridge CS4 is a powerful, easy-to-use media manager for visual people, letting you easily organize, browse, locate, and view creative assets. Available in all six editions of Adobe Creative Suite® 4 software and in most of Adobe's professional creative applications, Bridge provides centralized access to project files and global settings, as well as to XMP metadata tagging and searching capabilities.</em>

No..no mood for that. Hmm.2008. only few more days for the New Year. So.. This is the time to look back and .. actually this year I don't have any memorable happy moments.. but i have a lot of memorable moments. Some of them was the wonderful moments of my life. But now it is hurting. </p></div><p>January and feb.. a mix of good and bad things. But after that.. many sleep less days...and some days I slept more than 18 hours. Many medical leaves, chickenpox, minor accidents..lost friends.. broken dreams.. Well.. I wish to delete this year from my life. But.. I think all the incidents happend in this year is the result of the things that I have done in my previous years. So deleting this year may not work. Hmm.. anyway my previous years were wonderfull.. </p> <p>All these things happend in this year is may b for my good or may be for my bad. But now itz :-( ; Only time can prove that. Compared to the other incidents I have faced; this year I faced 1st failure in my life. I want it to be the last. Past is past.. Thinking about the future.. Hmm.. I can't predict. I wish for a happy and prosperous year... But still I am scared about some special days of 2009. Red or black days of my 2009. </p><p>I wrote this on 19. Then didn't get time to post. Now @ home, on annual leave. Installed Ubuntu in my laptop. Now installiing other applications. Want to download the updates and installation files. Since I am using BSNL Dataone connection, the free net time is 2AM-8AM. So all the big downloadings are done during that time. So have to wait 30 more minutes to start. Now let me select which all applications needs to be downloaded... Mainly codecs, dev applications. Ok.. byee

<p>In a historic event, the Indian space programme achieved a unique feat on November 14, 2008 with the placing of Indian tricolour on the Moon’s surface on Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru’s birthday. The Indian flag was painted on the sides of Moon Impact Probe (MIP), one of the 11 payloads of Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft, that successfully hit the lunar surface at 20:31 hrs (8:31 pm) IST. This is the first Indian built object to reach the surface of the moon. The point of MIP’s impact was near the Moon’s South Polar Region. </p><a href="http://www.isro.org/chandrayaan/htmls/home.htm">Chandrayaan 1</a><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" white-space: pre; font-family:Arial;font-size:13px;"></span>

<p>Sometimes in life, Aditi, just like that someone seems like your own<br />
Sometimes Aditi, when they are separated, it seems like a dream<br />
In such, how can anyone stop their tears from flowing<br />
And how can someone think everything’s going to be okay<br />
Sometimes it seems there is no happiness nor fun left in life<br />
Sometimes it seems every day is difficult, every moment is a punishment<br />
In such, how can someone smile, or be happy and laugh<br />
And how can they think everything’s going to be okay<br />
Think dear, how much I/we care for you (He could mean I or We)<br />
If there are tears in your eyes, I/we cry too<br />
I/We don’t know how to sing, but yet I/we sing<br />
Hey Aditi, believe for a minute that there is darkness in the entire world<br />
But it’s only after night that day comes<br />
Hey Aditi, laugh, laugh, laugh, laugh, laugh a little<br />
Or else just give a little, little, little, little smile<br />
If you are happy, it seems the world is filled with happiness<br />
The sun emerges from the clouds and spreads life<br />
Listen, what the intoxicating wind is telling you<br />
That Aditi, those who are separated, one day do meet again<br />
Aditi, whether you know it or not, flowers do bloom again</p>Arun Vishnu M Vhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16803961660992745296noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10793730.post-44449030201923842552008-07-15T11:56:00.003+04:002008-07-15T12:11:47.065+04:00A Software Engineer's feelings.....<p>It was raining heavily outside. Dark clouds gathered in the sky and nature was in its ominous best. I took a break from my work and went to the pantry to grab a cup of coffee. I had a sip and went near the window to see the rain pouring down heavily outside the glass structure. I was inside our huge office building, unruffled by even the fierceness of the nature. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Through the heavy transparent glass, I could see a small girl trying to hold on to her umbrella which the wind was snatching away from her. I felt sorry for the girl, and was happy that I was not in a similar pathetic situation. Yes. I take pride for the fact that I am a software engineer. </p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="color:#FF0000">I have everything which a common man would envy; money, status, respect, you name it I have it.</span> I always wanted to be software professional and here I am, working for one of the best firms in the world. But then, am I really happy? Now, I could see an imprint of my palm on the other glass window, through which I reminisced my past, basked in the warmth of the sun shine. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>My childhood was so much of fun. I vividly remember those rainy days, when I hugged my mother tightly during sleeping listening to all the stories told by her. Now, <span style="color:#FF0000">I have a big house here, but then it is just a house, not a home. My parents are pretty far away from me now. I have a cell phone to talk to them everyday, but then I really miss those dinners which I had with my family everyday. I could easily afford to taste all the different cuisines these days, but the best of food there, lack the love and affection which is present in the food prepared by my mother. </span></p>
<p> </p>
<p>I threw a lavish party for my colleagues for my birthday, but then they would never replace the birthdays when my friends secretly brought a cake and at the end, half of the cake would have ended up on my face.<span style="color:#FF0000"> The couple of hundred bucks that u save for a long period just to give a treat to your friends in the road side chat shop can never give the pleasure even after spending a few thousand bucks these days. </span></p>
<p> </p>
<p>The scene of me crying and refusing to have lunch on the day when I fought with my best friend in college canteen came to my mind. Today, she has gone far away from me, taking away my love and with it my life, but I am sitting and coding here with a false smile on my face. Everyday I meet new people, but then I long ceased to make a new friend. </p>
<p><span style="color:#FF0000"><br />
It's true that I have a lot of things now. I have a nice bed, but no time to sleep. Lots of money, but no friends to spend it with. The latest designer clothes, but a worn out body .</span> Quite a few to flirt, but no one to love. Awards for technical excellence, but no reward for the crave for peaceful ambience. A confident demeanor, but a reluctant and apathetic mind. Full of rain, but no sunshine even in the farthest distance. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Now, I could see the small girl on the road enjoying in the rain with her umbrella firmly in her grip. She might not have all the comforts which I have, but then she has the innocence and fun which I lost a long time back. <br />
I have decided to come out of this false fantasy, even if it is at the expense of losing the tap of the software engineer. I am going to again enjoy my life. I am going to go out in the rain and play with the small kid now. I removed my tie, and went near my computer to shut it down. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Just then, I saw a new mail alert in my mail box. I slowly opened outlook and I found a message from my manager with an attachment saying that there was a <em>critical defect</em> in the code and I have to fix it soon. I convinced myself that I am not going to get bogged down again by these pressures and stick to my decision. I ignored the mail and went to the rest room. After a couple of minutes, the software engineer in me came out, his shirt tucked in with the perfect tie knot, sat before the computer, and started typing, </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hi XYZ, <br />
</p>
<p>I am looking into the defect and will send the patch files before EOD. <br />
</p>
<p>Regards, <br />
Software Engineer. </p>

</p><p>Finally the iPhone 3G is officially released. </p>
<p>The main features are 3G, thinner edges, full plastic back, flush headphone jack, and the iPhone 2.0 firmware .They're also making sure it's available all over internationally, works with enterprises, runs 3rd party apps... and does it all for cheaper. Apple claims its 3G speeds trounce the competition, with pageloads 36% faster than the N95 and Treo 750 -- and of course it completely trounces the old EDGE data. Battery life isn't getting put out to pasture though, with 300 hours of standby, 8-10 hours of 2G talk, 5 hours of 3G talk, 7 hours of video and 24 hours of audio. GPS is also a go. Apple is using A-GPS, which supplements regular satellite GPS data with info from cellular towers. WiFi data is also worked into the mix, which should give users a pretty solid lock on where the heck they are on this planet.
Apple hopes to launch in 70 countries this year. <strong>8GB is available for $199, 16GB for $299</strong> -- and the 16GB comes in white. Both pricepoints require a contract. </p>
<p>iPhone is relasing in 25 countries in this July 11. It will be available in India through Vodafone. But the releasing date not not yet fixed. Here is the iPhone India Site http://www.apple.co.in/iphone/</p>
