Thanks to my Boss / Sifu ..

for teaching me code igniter ..

your blood , sweat and tears ..

I will never forget it ..

(still noob ) ..

Around 8:30 AM , I’m ready to rempit all the way to Amcorp Mall . From Klang to PJ , it takes bout 45 minutes (since I cant speed up more than 100 KM/h) ..

Arrive at Info Trek around 9 :10 . The place is actually beside McDonald . Info Trek is actually a company that provides training and certs for Microsoft products ..  I think I’m the only one who came from Sifoo forum .. Other students is mostly from IT professionals and their age is somewhere between 25 – 35 . So that makes me the youngest one ..

I still dunno why i have passion in these things .. skipping 3 days class for just this computer stuff .. Actually , I quite sad by the fact that this training is focus on designer and they will be another class that focus on programmer (heck i dont even know C# and VB is the 1st programming language that I learn when i was 16 so I barely remember what its all about ) . and the class will be held like end of this month and I dunno if I can manage to skip class again ….

My senior (ex senior) that is currently still doing jobhunting came by .. So .. its only 2 sifoorian .. other students that I know is from a big company , got LHDN some more .. ..Beside me is 2 chinese lady … staff from MMU Cyberjaya ..

What I learn is Silverlight is for RIA (Rich internet apps) .. you can say its like flash apps ..but its from Microsoft .. Silverlight is subset of WPF .. so XAML (extensible app markup language) in silverlight can work in WPF BUT XAML in WPF its not fully supported in Silverlight . So .. basically , WPF can be created by using XAML for stand alone projects and Silverlight for web apps .

Slverlight have 1.0 and 1.1 Version (alpha stage) . I read at someone blogs from Microsoft MSDN that its already call 1.1 version as 2.0 .. Want to confirm this with Rohant . Silverlight 1.0 can be use (or actually .. MUST USE) javascript while 1.1 can be use in .Net environment . So its makes developer as well to designer a whole lot easier .

so .. you all can try the silverlight apps , make sure you are installing the web browser plugin . Just head to Silverlight site and install those plugins to enjoy silverlight .

It’s been a long time since I write something in T3ch Category .. well .. after Windows Vista had been released .. and i tried for 1 months .. I decided to install back XP dual boot with Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon . Well it’s true some people said that the major upgrade of Vista is Xp itself .. U dont have to worry about lack of drivers (well .. we can blame the hardware developer for that off course .. ) .. high requirement of PC spec ..

Anyway .. I love XP .. and I’m not ready yet to jump to Vista .. I love the search features .. more security .. more dumb notify features if u want to do something funny with ur system ..

Microsoft is already release their service pack 3 for XP . It’s not final yet .. U can expect it to be fully release in 2nd Quarter 2008 . You can download the RC ( Release Candidate ) Version and read the Windows XP Service Pack 3 FAQ before trying .
