Take advantage of Limited Warranty

Generally electronic goods carry a limited warranty on purchase. First you must read the limitations and the coverage of the warranty . Mostly the companies give warrenty based on the some lab tests and the statistics. Most electronics items may just survive the warranty period and may fail very soon after it. The cost computed by the company the product may fail in next year is proportional to

Percentage of people opting extended warranty * probability of that the product may fail * Max cost of replacement.

On the initial days we would take extreme caution the product. Then later on we would reduce the care that we take exponentially over time. This increases the probability  the product may fail after the warranty period.

So what can we do ?

Don't hesitate to use your product extensively within the limits given on the warrenty during the warrenty period. Try to extend the warrenty to another year if the product's average life expectancy is above five years.If the product survives it has a greater probability that it would serve the entire average span. And don't forget to have your warrenty card safe.

I am this kind of Developer

"Here is a little secret that developers have known for years and non-technical people have yet to figure out. It doesn't matter what language a developer knows, they are all similar. A talented developer has an interpreter and compiler in his head and thinks in pseudo-code anyway. Applying that to a language is just a matter of figuring out the syntax...and that is the easy part."

Enlightenment

Enlightenment is about realizing about yourself. We are some kind of wired. Like things the make you happy and sad. Many configuration are adopted from the society and some are pre-loaded. We must realize a fact that we are highly configurable. A psycho is an person who has wrongly reconfigured the wiring "KILL>SIN" to "KILL>PLEASURE". Some Monks just cut the Hard Line connecting to anger. You can be a silent observer of your emotions to see these links. Its really hard to reconfigure these links. You can define your own links or cut some links. Some of my links are "SPEND>SAD" "SAVE>HAPPY" "GAMES> NOT INTERESTING" etc.
You can tryout your own links and cut the unwanted and be Enlightenment.
