Tom 是怎么成为一个 Oracle 数据库大师的?在这里有所提及：
it took me 16 years of “all about oracle” to be here. started as a programmer/analyst on the mainframe writing PL/I code against SQL/DS and DB2 (PL/I is still by far the coolest language I’ve ever used). That started my SQL career. I bought Oracle version 5.1.5c from Dr. Dobbs Journal for $99.00 in the late 80’s and started building systems with it. Then I was “forced” to use
Sybase, Informix, Ingress, Gupta SQLBase and other “rdbms’s” as well.
阅读/学习基本理论和掌握产品文档是必要的一步：
I also learned all about databases then — read the theory (like Jim Grays Transaction Processing Book, not really light reading but taught me lots of stuff). Then read the practical (the reference manuals).
So I spent six years as a developer/dba. Even though I was a coder — i found doing things in the database to make tons more sense then writing tons of code to do the same. I actually quit my first job after six years soley for the reason that they wouldn’t let me exploit the software they paid so much for (they were so into this “generic database”, the “database is a commidity”
concept that they had me coding our own two phase commit protocol, our own stored procedure language, our own compilers for the same, our own sql parser — it was frightening. Funny thing is — I meet with customers all of the time
still doing just that!)
the first six years is what really did it. on the job training, reading — tech books (egads — the manuals!) lots of magazines (i was a magazine junkie, dr dobbs, the c programmers journal, you name it).
好久没关注Nutch了，看邮件列表，学到了几招关于 Nutch 的小技巧．
调整 regex-urlfilter.txt 或是 crawl-urlfilter.txt 文件． 参见行”# skip URLs containing certain characters as probable queries,后面的内容．
昨天就看到有人说盛大要收购新浪,早晨来到公司已经有新闻出来了:
据上海盛大公告披露（北京时间2月19日）:盛大公司于2月10日就同其控股的地平线媒体有限公司（Skyline Media Limited）一道，对新浪控股约19.5%。这些股份是通过公开市场购得的。
作为一个靠游戏起家的公司,居然可以做到这个份上,不能说不是奇迹了.很有戏剧性,颇有点像当年的美国在线收购华纳.很多人要大跌眼镜了吧?
