Obama quotes Hadith during National Prayer Breakfast

President Barack Obama is telling the National Prayer Breakfast that even though faith too often has been used "as a tool to divide us from one another," there is no religion in the world that is based on hatred.

In his prepared remarks, President Obama quoted the prophetic tradition, or "hadith," which states: "None of you truly believes until he wishes for his brother what he wishes for himself." That hadith may be found in Sahih Al-Bukhari, one of the most respected collections of the Prophet Muhammads(PBUH) statements and actions.

Here is the speech video,

A Strong Middle Class = A Strong America

Today, I was reading Obama's new administrative order about middle class development.

I am happy for this news. Now, at least somebody would hear the shouted voices of middle-class. It is beginning towards prospect future of an average American.

Happy Eid-ul-Adha to all brothers and sisters of Islam.

Things I Learned about Software in University

1. ITC teacher, Hilal Qureshi (Dean of CS), used to say that we (instructors) will not teach, we will just help you. (Have to have read text book before lectures)
   
2. Necessary fundamentals like data structure (specailly C++ pointers, and how to use copy constructor), object oriented programming, relational database theory, algorithm, compiler construction, and math classes. Pascal/C, C++/Java are good languages.
   
3. Computer Science generation (student) will destroyed if they don't know about latest development in CS world. (Have to have read at least one article from any research journal of CS)
   

Things I Learned about Software WHILE NOT in University

1. Software Engineering process/tools/methodologies/good architectural designs/N-Tier implementation are blessing for Software Development.
   
2. Requirements are always weird because life is also weird. Always code weird task with basic functionality, and then add features according to requirements.
3. Code writing is an art which become fine and tuned day by day through experience and and contact with experienced peers.
