Excellence

Excellence

A German once visited a temple under construction
where he saw a sculptor making an idol of God.
Suddenly he noticed a similar idol lying nearby.
Surprised, he asked the sculptor, "Do you need two
statues of the same idol?" "No," said the sculptor
without looking up, "We need only one, but the first
one got damaged at the last stage."
The gentleman
examined the idol and found no apparent damage.
"Where is the damage?" he asked. "There is a
scratch on the nose of the idol." said the sculptor, still
busy with his work.
"Where are you going to install
the idol?"
The sculptor replied that it would be installed on a
pillar twenty feet high.
"If the idol is that far, who is
going to know that there is a scratch on the nose?"
the gentleman asked.
The sculptor stopped work,
looked up at the gentleman, smiled and said, "I will
know it."
The desire to excel is exclusive of the fact whether
someone else appreciates it or not. "Excellence" is a
drive from inside, not outside. Excellence is not for
someone else to notice but for your own satisfaction
and efficiency.

NHibernate QueryOver Class And Projection....

Introduction The ICriteria API is NHibernate's implementation of Query Object . NHibernate 3.0 introduces the QueryOver api, which combines the use of Extension Methods and Lambda Expressions (both new in .Net 3.5) to provide a statically typesafe wrapper round the ICriteria API. QueryOver uses Lambda Expressions to provide some extra syntax to remove the 'magic strings' from your ICriteria queries. So, for example: .Add(Expression.Eq("Name", "Smith")) becomes: .Where<Person>(p => p.Name == "Smith") With this kind of syntax there are no 'magic strings', and refactoring tools like 'Find All References', and 'Refactor->Rename' work perfectly. Note: QueryOver is intended to remove the references to 'magic strings' from the ICriteria API while maintaining it's opaqueness. It is not a LINQ provider; NHibernate 3.0 has a built-in ...

Understanding machine learning

What is machine learning does?  It Finds patterns in data and uses those patterns to predict the future.          EXAMPLES :  Detecting credit card fraud : You can use machine learning  detect credit card fraud, Suppose you have data about previous credit card transactions. You could find patterns in that data potentially  that allows you to detect when a new credit card transaction is likely to be fraudulent. Determining whether a customer is likely to switch to a competitor :  You could possibly find the patterns in the existing customer data that will help you do that Lots more What does it mean to learn ? Yes it's something like your own learning process. You have learned reading,listening, walking everything by using your experience on it, the data you have in your mind and continuous improvements.  How did you learn to read? Well learning requires identifying patterns. Reading for instance you ...
