I started two new sections today. Photo stories and tech. Being a curious photographer with always paying attention to the smallest things, I love to capture the ordinary things around us in an extraordinary way. I also want to show it to the world in my own way using photo stories.
I have been spending major chunk of my day time in the tech industry for the past 4 years. There are times where I spend days reading about a topic and its forgotten unless I use it in my regular work. This is an effort to share what I have learned in the way I learn it. I have the habit of making analogies to understand a concept from my school days. I also want to explore other ways of learning starting with the series of blog posts in this tech section. I will write my best to explain anything new I learn.
So here goes the first post I jotted down in my notebook this morning.
Also noting it down here for a better clarity. Having worked on daemons and processes for the past 4 years, I never wondered how a daemon is created. It was always tweaking code around an already existing daemon. I decided to learn about it offline.
Here it goes:
1) Create a child process in the parent using fork() function call.
2) Exit the parent so that init becomes the new parent.
3) Start your own clan. (You have to forget the process groups and session you were born in)
4) Give away all the assets that you inherited from your parent. (file descriptors)
5) Make your own rules for the newcomers to your clan.(permission on new file creation etc)
6) Operate in low light.( run in background &)
7. To summarise, be a REBEL!
Happy Learning! :-)
Any feedback is welcome. :)
