The new Large Hadron Collider (LHC) from CERN has an instrument called the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) will produce as much data as a digital camera with 60 mega pixels taking 40,000,000 pictures a second! This means they have to store and analyse more than a terabyte of data a second across multiple servers on earth. To do so they are building a new network to carry all this data with a speed of more than 10,000 times the speed Internet now has. The Grid it’s called, and no doubt about it that this project will succeed, cause these people also invented the Internet. Read the rest of this entry »

UAC (User Account Control), the most discussed feature of Microsoft Windows Vista, said to be made to be a pain in the ass for it’s users, but most of all needed to be the ultimate layer of security, but is now popping up almost every second of your computing time. Is UAC taking control over you? Is UAC going beyond it’s purpose? Read the rest of this entry »

Exactly 1 year ago I started blogging. In my opinion my articles became better and better and I would love to continue doing this. The previous url http://pakku.wordpress.com is replaced with http://www.pakkusblog.com.
Next to this, the blog has gone in a sort of make over. The design is renewed and I added some new stuff.
Pakku’s Blog has now a shop andcan be find on http://pakkusblog.spreadshirt.net or it’s items randomly at the sidebar.
This website now also has a subscription to the online encyclopedia Britannica Onlineand is seen as the online encyclopedia which has the only true and right information available. I’m not yet sure how to implement this feature, but this will be soon applied.
Which also soon can be seen are pod- and vodcasts about various subjects. If you would like to comment on articles, you still can, but I have implemented a new feature which let you comment just by authorizing yourself with your own OpenID (see other post: Will OpenID be the future?)
So there is much to check out on this renewed weblog. Let’s start with the 2nd year posting.
