user accounting patch from google

I am interested in the mysql user activity monitoring patch that Google has. They have not released each feature as a separate patch and instead have given out one-big-patch-file :-( . Preliminary analysis shows that user accounting requires modifications to be applied in these files. The numbers in the second column are the number of lines modified in the original file via the patch. The output was generated using egrep and diffstat.

journal for 22-Jul-2007

One of my happiest moments in life is the barge ride that I took in Goa with my SO. We had to cross a river with our scooter to continue our exploration of Old Goa. It was a summer day and as I leaned over to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath me while talking to my favourite person in the world, I think at that moment I had everything I desired.

The workplace hardly gives time for introspection. However, I think I can put my finger on what I am doing wrong. The realization came to me while I was listening to one of the 43folders podcasts with David Allen about interruptions.

David mentions that someone who has a good system in place for managing his projects will not be perturbed by interruptions. He will see an interruption as an input that needs to be handled.

I have not reached that state of being able to handle interruptions and I get sidetracked by interruptions. I hope to reach that level of expertise soon.
