Would you explain, in simple terms, exactly what object-oriented software is?
Objects are like people. They’re living, breathing things that have knowledge inside them about how to do things and have memory inside them so they can remember things. And rather than interacting with them at a very low level, you interact with them at a very high level of abstraction, like we’re doing right here. Here’s an example: If I’m your laundry object, you can give me your dirty clothes and send me a message that says, “Can you get my clothes laundered, please.” I happen to know where the best laundry place in San Francisco is. And I speak English, and I have dollars in my pockets. So I go out and hail a taxicab and tell the driver to take me to this place in San Francisco. I go get your clothes laundered, I jump back in the cab, I get back here. I give you your clean clothes and say, “Here are your clean clothes.” You have no idea how I did that. You have no knowledge of the laundry place.  Maybe y

Let's face it -- the average Indian is obsessed with a fair complexion. Most dusky Indian beauties would give an arm and a leg to acquire pasty white skin, which we refer to as 'gora-chitta'. It's quite sad to see fresh, smooth-skinned (albeit dark) people ruin the texture and glow of their complexions by using every possible cream, lotion, soap, serum, face pack and what-have-you to become fair. The only ones benefiting from this craze are the fairness product companies who are laughing all the way to the bank. Don't get me wrong -- there are chemicals which work and there are ways to get rid of unwanted pigmentation, but you need to have the correct knowledge of what's good for you and what's not. Check out the ingredients on your fairness product package and read on to get the low-down on what works and what doesn't: 1.Hydroquinone: This is one of the most effective whitening compounds known today.

Benjamin Franklin was a man of action. Over his lifetime, his curiosity and passion fueled a diverse range of interests. He was a writer (often using a pseudonym), publisher, diplomat, inventor and one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. His inventions included the lightning rod, bifocals and the Franklin stove. Franklin was responsible for establishing the first public library, organizing fire fighters in Philadelphia, was one of the early supporters of mutual insurance and crossed the Atlantic eight times. Self-development was a constant endeavor throughout his incredible life. Benjamin Franklin was clearly a man who knew how to get things done. Here are 14 action-inducing lessons from him:  Less Talk, More Action  “Well done is better than well said.” Talk is cheap. Talking about a project won't get it completed. We all know people who constantly talk about the things they are going to do but rarely ever take that first step. Eventually people begin to question th

The Art of Being Well by Dr Varella. If you don’t want to be ill, please read the steps below Speak your feelings Emotions and feelings that are hidden, repressed, end in illnesses as: gastritis, ulcer, lumbar pains, spinal. With time, the repression of the feelings degenerates to the cancer. Then, we go to a confidante, to share our intimacy, ours "secret", our errors! The dialogue, the speech, the word, is a powerful remedy and an excellent therapy! Make Decisions The undecided person remains in doubt, in anxiety, in anguish. Indecision accumulates problems, worries and aggressions. Human history is made of decisions. To decide is precisely to know to renounce, to know to lose advantages and values to win others. The undecided people are victims of gastric ailments, nervous pains and problems of the skin. Find Solutions Negative people do not find solutions and they enlarge problems. They prefer lamentation, gossip, pessimism. It is better to light

Remember that the quality of your life is determined by the quality of your thoughts. Keep the promises you make to others - and to yourself.  The project that most scares you is the project you need to do first.  Small daily improvements are the key to staggering long-term results.  Stop being busy being busy. This New Year, clean out the distractions from your work+life and devote to a monomaniacal focus on the few things that matter.

As Saul Bellow once said: "A plan relieves you of the torment of choice." Release your need to be liked t
