لو سمحت عاوز أبقى هاكر… ؟

كلنا عايزين نبقى مبرمجين جامدين, و كلنا عايزين نبقى جامدين, و أكيد بما إنك بتقرأ دلوقتى يبقى انت كمان كده. لكن هل أنت فعلاُ عارف ايه اللى انت محتاجه علشان تكون معدى؟ هو أيه تعريف جامد و معدى أصلاً ؟ مش أنا أول ما اخد كورس الجافا هبقى معدى؟ … ولا اي

Computers Engineering Festival محاضرتي في مؤتمر هندسة الحاسبات و النظم

كنت عاوز أوصل للناس فائدة أنك تكون مهندس كمبيوتر، مش بس مبرمج أو مهندس نظم. مع مثال لموضوع محتاج أنك تكون فاهم كويس نظام التشغيل و البرمجة.  جربت أيضا أن العرض يبقي بالعربي و الأنجليزي، و أعتقد الناس عجبها ده، و أحب أسمع رأيكم برضه

How to show current desktop windows/tasks only in KDE Task Manager ?

November 9th, 2009

I wanted to do something dead simple, make my KDE4 task manager show only the current desktop windows. I found out it a bit tricky, I kept trying right clicking the task bar to get its settings, only to end with “Panel Settings” which is the whole plasma panel settings menu, until I figured out the easiest way to do it:

1- Click on the “Cashew” icon of the plasma panel  ( check the screenshot )

2- Right click on the task bar, BINGO, here u find out the task bar settings menu

3- Check the “Only show tasks from the current desktop” check box. Voila

Introduction To Algorithms H4ck3rz Study Group

July 12th, 2009

For so long I’ve been wanting to study Algorithms, since our beloved college doesn’t know “Algorithms” was even invented. And since the best source to really learn them is the legendary book “Introduction to Algorithms”, I decided to start this week.  It’s gonna be a tough ride, cause I tried before and it was really difficult to even finish the first two chapters, but I’m intended to do it nevertheless.

So I want to achieve maximum “fruitfulness” with this experience by creating a study group in H4ck3rz for students who are interested in studying Algorithms. We can study together in parallel, meet online to summarize, solve exercises together and share our “hard times” . I’ve the book, videos, some good resources that can help us go through it. Maybe at the end we can create some simplified study plan with our experience in this book, best places of help we had and what did we need to study in order to complete such a book “And there’ll be many :) “. More details will be on H4ck3rz website . I currently posted that on my wire but once I find a better place on H4ck3rz to announce this I’ll update this post. Till then if anyone is interested please let me know here or via mail. I’ll surely enjoy “not” doing this alone :D

Updated:

We’ll be managing our study group through a H4ck3rz group

This is my presentation at the H4ck3rz Due conference, which was sponsored by “The Fedora Project” and “Egypt OpenSolaris Usergroup – EGOSUG” . it has been really a while since I participated in CAT, but it’s very good to be back.
