“Your generation created this problem, you better fix it!” “你這一代創造了這個問題,更好地為您修復它” !

“There is a time when panic is the appropriate response” - Eugene Kleiner of KPCB “是有恐慌的時候是適當的反應” -尤金菲爾德的k pcb

BTW: KPCB is investing 200 million dollars in green technology based companies.的BTW : kpcb是投資2.0億美元,在綠色技術為基礎的公司。

Even software companies like us can go green by reducing electricity consumption as much as possible by using fluorescent lighting, encouraging and facilitating car-pools, shutting down workstations after work etc.甚至軟件公司一樣,我們可以去綠色,減少電力消耗,盡可能多地使用熒光燈照明,鼓勵和促進汽車水池,關停後,工作站的工作等。

Each of us should do our bit, not only at a personal level but also by trying to influence policies, to help environment and in turn help our children to live in a cleaner and safer world.我們每個人應該做的我們一點,不僅在個人層面,但也企圖影響政策,以幫助環境,從而幫助我們的子女能夠生活在一個更清潔和更安全的世界。 And you can also make a profit out of your effort like Walmart.您還可以賺取利潤,對您的努力,像沃爾瑪。

BTW: Personally I am looking for efficient solar panels to use some of the massive amount of solar power freely available in Kolkata, without much luck so far.的BTW :我個人在尋找高效率的太陽能電池板使用的一些大量的太陽能發電站免費提供在加爾各答,沒有太多運氣,至今。 Any ideas welcome.任何想法表示歡迎。

    hi Angsuman,喜由Angsuman ,

    another nice post.另一個好後。

    Well, about saving money, I saw a blog post a few months back about how software engineers through their work can reduce power consumption.那麼,約節省金錢,我看到了一個博客後幾個月回有關如何軟件工程師通過他們的工作可以降低電力消耗。 We can write(implement at the least) better algorithms, do more profiling, etc. That way, the number of servers and the power consumed can be reduced.我們也可以撰寫的(落實在至少)更好的算法,做更多的剖面等,這樣,服務器的數量和功率消耗可減少。

    I started using Java 5 2 years ago but recently worked on a project that is still using java 1.4.2.我開始在使用Java 5的2年前,但最近工作的一個項目,這仍然是使用Java 1.4.2 。 The reason : one of the 3rd party apps has not moved to 1.5.原因是:其中的第三黨的應用服務並沒有轉移到1.5 。 What a waste!!何等的浪費! When 1.6, by default, runs atleast twice as fast as java 1.4.2, just switching to 1.6 can reduce the number of servers in a cluster.當1.6 ,默認情況下,違背了至少快兩倍的Java 1.4.2 ,只需切換到1.6 ,可以減少服務器的數量在一組。 Those redundant servers can be put to use into more/better testing/staging這些多餘的服務器可以投入使用,到更多/更好的測試/分期 :-)

    Hard work (almost) always pays and being smart and hard (almost) gets you nearer!辛勤工作, (幾乎)總是自付和被聰明和努力(幾乎)讓您更接近!

    BR,
