There r things in life which cannot be measured… One such things is when one says “I m Bored!!” .. And you Yawn a lot .. like hell to show that u r really not interested in doing anything right now/ listening to any thing ..
This day i am alone.. Trying to figure out if i can read/prepare myself for some technical material. But it didn’t work out as planned…So the whole day i read hardly a chapter from what seemed to be an interesting book said by me .. till yesterday.. May be it was me .. i wanted to get bored.. or is it something natural.. that’s like evolution.. wherein people get bored sitting alone..
I spent endless days sitting alone in my child hood.. there were other ways to entertain however..
But i was never bored like today.. So i decided that i search on how people look when they yawn (kinda stupid when it comes to reality – But.. who cares) . So Google Image Search gave me interesting images like these.

So i was wondering if we were to simulate a program to bore a computer.. So what do we need.
1) Definitely we need some input mechanism.. just like keyboard.. mouse.. and the most interesting thing would be the video camera.
There have been great programs written by the MIT AI Labs.. which would bore a computer.. but that sleeps.. mine yawns 🙂 .
2) Is a program which contains some conditionals on which the computer should get bored. This unlike should be run on a different processor altogether.
The reason being.. If a CheckBoredOrNot Program runs on the same processor on which the program has to be check on, there is always a program running and hence its would mean the computer is not idling.. So threading wont help here .. the only alternative would be to keep a different processor to help the same.
3) Here would be some conditions that came up to my mind ..
- If a similar process is being run over and over giving the same output – then bingo 1st condition.
- If a similar memory locations are getting accessed over and over again..
- If repetitive patterns are entered on the keyboard, then
- If mouse always is being used in a specific section of the monitor, or click of similar links.
- If the computer is on for too many days.. it should get impatient..like the above facts/conditions should get more weighed..
There i did it again.. My life is just not complete without computer.. and the Internet.. I sometimes dream about the Movie Matrix batteries….. Not specifically being the One or Two or something.. But ya.. i feel we r already controlled by computers.. or may be a grid of computers.. and will be take over soon… I hope I’ll not be a slave.. and be prisoned and used as rechargeable batteries or something… Rather i work for them 🙂
