How to migrate Ofbiz from Derby to MySQL DB.
It’s been a while but finally I’m here. I know it’s a lame excuse but the last few weeks were indeed very hectic not only because I’ve joined a freelance community but mostly because I was snowed under on my permanent position. Anyway, today I’d like to guide you through the steps required to migrated […]
WP 3.0
Whilst I’m sitting in a train which is driving me to the airport I’d like t mention that recently I’ve upgraded to WP 3.0. It was a straightforward on-click procedure. Can’t speak of any single great advantages which this update has brought to me but presumably the biggest one is that nothing has broken so […]
Living in a rush
I’m still here – on air. But simply don’t have much time to post anything more substantial than saying that I’m leaving to Saint-Petersburg for a couple of days. I’ve already finished my short note about Ofbiz but still need to re-check everything before posting it online. Hope I could do that either from the […]
Freelancer. Count me in.
I’ve been hatching this idea for a long time but only on the last week I took the final decision and registered on Freelancer.com.

Steadfast tin soldier 2010

Introduction to algorithms
I highly recommend everyone to view this outstanding MIT course dedicated to algorithms and their efficiency. This course is especially interesting to those who, as myself, want to lift a veil of the education process in the US and how different subjects are being taught.
Abrupt clock change in SC
Today is 828 days after SC on one of ours SF6900 servers was rebooted for the last time, meaning that it’s exactly 828 days of uptime. And it’s one of the contributing factor to be beaten by 6567546 bug. Another one is the SC’s version and if its less than 5.20.7 – you’re affected as […]
Who cares about TCO and ROI?!
As expected people care less about buisness acronyms and high words i.e. TCO, ROI, integrted stack, when real money are involved. I visioned confirmation of this during Oracle+Sun welcome event where all Oracles’/Suns’ consultants were touting about their integrated stack but felt short once asked about the price the customer will have to pay for […]

Came across an interesting link which proves that new OpenSolaris release is in the production pipeline. Update. The link has been promptly deleted. But it’s still available through Google’s Cache – Click here
Tender thanks for invitation
As I mentioned in my last post there is going to be a planed Oracle+Sun welcome event on the 20th of May in Moscow Marriott Hotel and, nevertheless, I was a bit skeptical about my chances to be allowed to attend this event I still received the confirmation today. Frankly speaking, I don’t expect to […]
