Few Jokes on Unix Operating System and its functionalities *

I remember i wrote a joke on UNIX users a few years back in one of the blog. I was also sharing this with my colleagues in different offices i worked in. Few friends back there in Adobe system and Symantec used to love these kind of jokes. So i thought few more jokes that i have invented (or discovered or written ☺) since then.


The first one is:

Question - Why did the man using UNIX spend all day at the terminal?

Answer - Because he couldn't figure out how to use the "vi" command to exit!

This was a joke because of similar sound of bye and vi especially in some parts of the world.


Question - Why did the man using UNIX always wear sunglasses?

Answer - Because he was always 'ls'-ing in the sun!

Now this used the similarity between the word 'lying' and 'lsing'


Question - Why did the UNIX user wear a tie to the beach?

Answer - Because he wanted to be "root" in the office and "user" at the beach.


Question  - Why did the UNIX user put his computer in the freezer?

Answer - Because he wanted to "cool down" his "system".


Question  - Why did the UNIX user stare at the black screen for hours?

Answer - Because he was trying to "cat" the manual!


Please note that these are just jokes and should not be taken seriously. Unix users are just like any other group of people and should not be stereotyped or discriminated against based on their profession or preferences.

PS: The first of my such joke appeared here in 2013 - https://www.w3lc.com/2013/05/checking-file-system-directory-size-in.html



Warehouse management system and the Infoplus Cloud WMS

A warehouse management system (WMS) is a software application that helps companies manage and organize their warehouse operations. It provides tools for receiving, storing, and distributing products, as well as tracking inventory levels, monitoring warehouse activity, and generating reports. Some of the key features of a WMS include:

  1. Inventory management: A WMS allows companies to track inventory levels in real-time, so they always know how much stock they have on hand and where it's located. This helps prevent stockouts and overstocking, and helps companies make better decisions about when to reorder products.
  2. Receiving and putaway: A WMS helps companies process incoming shipments, including receiving and inspecting products, putting them away in the appropriate storage location, and updating inventory levels.
  3. Picking and packing: A WMS helps companies locate products quickly and efficiently when orders are received, and generate picking lists and packing slips to streamline the order fulfillment process.
  4. Shipping and tracking: A WMS helps companies prepare products for shipment, generate shipping labels, and track shipments as they make their way to customers.
  5. Reporting and analytics: A WMS generates a variety of reports and analytics, including inventory levels, order history, and warehouse activity. This helps companies make data-driven decisions about warehouse operations and improve overall efficiency.
  6. Automation: Many WMSs include tools for automation like barcode scanning, RFID tagging, and integration with other systems like ERP or accounting software, to automate many tasks in the warehouse.

A WMS can also include other features, such as cycle counting, kitting, and cross-docking. It can be used in different ways depending on the type of warehouse (for example, e-commerce warehouse, manufacturing warehouse, etc) and can be customized to fit the specific needs of a company.

Overall, a WMS is a powerful tool for managing warehouse operations, and can help companies improve efficiency, reduce costs, and provide better service to customers. With the help of a WMS, companies can gain better control over their inventory, streamline their order fulfillment process, and make data-driven decisions to improve overall warehouse performance.
