QUALITY - "Starts with YOU" !

Recently, there was a quality week in our organization and then followed by a quality training which depicted the importance and essence of quality in the software we deliver. Today, I would like to share the same. Surely, a 5 minutes reading on this post can help you why it's important to deliver quality as a inbuilt feature even though customer won't ask for it explicitly.

Any product cannot be made with zero defects, but a product contains quality when it starts to deliver the basic fact "product fits for it's purpose and can be used to accomplish the task for which it was designed" . Some use cases will be so rare that product fails to meet the use case successfully. This is basically because the use case was not thought or simulated in the production process. If the product is a software, then we can say that use case was not taken care in design/code phase and did not test in testing phase.

So ultimate aim is to built a product with as close as to Zero defects. That's why many industrial sectors are following the new quality tool: Six Sigma which is a data driven approach where the aim to identify the defects and eliminate it at the earliest. There are other different quality tools also which are being used.

Why is it necessary to identify the bug and eliminate at the earliest ?

Below picture depicts the impact of allowing the bug to escape to further stages. This is called as "Rule of Ten" in industries. It's calculated as cost to fix defect and it's impact increases by ten fold for each stage. So it's good to find and eliminate the bug at the earliest and retain the quality.

Toyota has recalled around 6 million sold cars due to a small mistake. This is just an example. There are so many similar incidents.

More than that, earlier it was Customer Satisfaction. Now, product has to meet quality along with Customer Excitement. There should be something in the product which delights the customer. You can take various products, even a mobile. More than serving a basic communication purpose, competitors are trying to delight/excite customer with it's various features. Now this has become a necessity rather than a option.

So when there is a customer requirement to be delivered, cost given for implementing quality (eg: testing) should be taken care by you and the fruit for that effort is the gain of customer trust. make it a habit to implement a quality tool usage in your organisation if you are a entrepreneur and if you are a process implementer (Developer,Manufacturer..), then take care to implement it in the right way at the first time itself.

Remember, Quality is when customer returns, not the product.

Way to Germany .....

Its been several posts regarding interviews and science continuously. So today, I would like to blog on my recent first onsite in my 2 and half years of I.T experience.


It was a quick call to take out the chance of a 2 week short business trip to Germany. I was excited to go for it. One week was full busy with all business visa, passport visa stamping, foreign currency collection etc. Then the day came and I was like ready.. set... go.

 Being my dad's boy, I reached airport almost 4 hours earlier than the flight departure time. Bengaluru airport has got a single terminal which combines Domestic as well as International  flights. So there was no much place to hangout after checking in my baggage. As I wanted to carry Cigars for my friend who is already there in Germany, I took out the time to explore the duty free shops after checking in. From there I bought 1 pack containing 200 Cigars which was priced in dollars. I was like, why they are pricing in dollars even though the shop is in Indian airport. Later I checked the reason behind this. Even though I couldn't find a reason, I came across an article in DNA news website regarding the same "Only country that damns its own currency" . Even foreigners coming with an impression of incredible India loses the credibility of Indian rupee as they find they can't use the same in international duty free shops.



Article reference :

http://www.dnaindia.com/india/analysis-the-only-country-that-damns-its-own-currency-150940
So, I was charged with foreign currency conversion rate and some service charge  as I used credit card for paying. One of the Indians who was forced to pay in another currency in same soil. Ok...Now don't take an impression that I am blaming our nation a lot. I am just pointing out the flaw which I saw and felt. There are some upcoming circumstances where I felt I am fine & happy with my country ;-).

So rest of the hours, I buzzed through the songs and chats with my family and friend regarding the status of the journey.
Flight was ready for the set off ...I got in...settled on my seat. People are still getting their seats and settling down. Suddenly, One lady came and requested that whether I can swap the seats, so that she can accompany with her family who is sitting beside me. Without any hesitation I told ok, as in flight seat only matters if it is a window seat, and currently, I don't have a windows seat. So I swapped and went forward one row. Again I settled down and then again one girl came and asked to put her bag on top cabin. She was short and so was struggling to put the bag on the top. I took out the bag and helped her to make it into the place. Then I realized, she is my flight mate. She is sitting beside me. We had a small introduction and then the voice of flight taking off dominated. After the flight reached it's altitude, an air hostess came and smiled at me. I was like, ok ...there will be something she needs from me. As I am well aware, there won't be a smile from an unknown girl without a reason. And I was not wrong. She came and told " Sir, If you are fine, can you please take a seat at the front." . This time, I was like...little bit frustrated. I told her "I already swapped my seats once. Is it possible to find a another guy for this need". But that dint convince her. She asked again and told one girl wants to sit beside her mom who is sitting on the other side of me. I told ok and then went to the front row. This time, it was like some 5-6 rows front. I then settled down with a decision that I won't get up from here for another 8 hours.

After an half hour, I was trying to be comfortable by going through the videos and albums of the tv. By that time, same air hostess came and I was like ..what now?  . She came and gave me a small bag and told this is a gift for the pain you took. I felt good the way Lufthansa treated their passengers. I told thanks and took a look inside as soon as she went. They used to give this bag to Business class people, containing sweets and other stuffs for a nice flight travel. I had the sweets and then started to watch the movie "Terminator Genisys" . Slowly I went to sleep and all over the flight journey was good with less turbulence. I reached Frankfurt around 12.30 pm.

Just see the Style factor, awesome ?

Frankfurt airport is one of the great places to hangout. More than 3 terminals and each terminal is connected with trains and have got enough shops to explore. As Germany is well known for its automobile industry, you can see a couple of high end cars of Lotus, BMW etc showcased inside the airport.

Classic ..no other words to define!

Then from there, I took my next connecting flight to hannover , which was for 1 hour. I had my taxi booked for picking me from hannover to Hildesheim residence. So I was expecting a guy to hold the card with my name outside hannover airport. I was going through the pluck cards and saw one board with my moms name. As my seniours advised me, i figured it out that was for me. This happened because sometimes they use our surname. I got into the taxi and was ready for the first ride in Germany. Temperature was of 10 degree Celsius around and the traffic is like 4-5 cars on road in 10 km. Very less compared to India. Even population also. There was no difficulty in finding residence as all residences are identified with street and house number.

I Just loved this one <3 , White Warrior look

Days in Germany, will be in upcoming post. After that post, I will drop the rest interview topics.

The Cat in my PG

 Top floor guys who are from north India call him "Dizzie", other guys from south india call him "Pacha" , I call him "" .... nothing...i don't call him at all. I don't like him simply.

When I was having my lunch on first day in this new PG at koramangala,Bangalore, my privacy was knocked by a "meowwww.." . That's the first time I was seeing him. Grey and white mix, deep brown eyes, furry tail..... with a super cute look. He was looking at me and repeating the meow tone.
As I am not a admirer of cat that much, initially I thought he was welcoming me. I dint realize the real fact behind meow was a piece of lunch from my plate. I just ignored and had my lunch and came back to room.

Second day : Sunday, I was having my brunch in room. I dunno from where, he was at my doors. I got angry and closed doors . I was hungry and moreover, morning only, he is looking at me as if I should treat him. After closing doors, I went back and sat on my bed and took my plates. Meowwwwwww........ I was just shocked. This time the sound is so clear and sharp. It is from the side of my legs. He is sitting on floor beside my legs and staring at me. I was just curious that how he got in as I closed door. And that too, this much fast. They say, cats are quick. But I dint believe this much quick a cat can be. I just made him flew away and he just ran to my balconies and climbed down. At that moment I realized, I will be having a frequent uninvited visitor.

Slowly, I was having a friends gang in the PG and then one day when we were chit chatting during lunch, our star came with his looks. I told them, how quick he is. They just corrected me.

"Its not he, itz She. she has got 2 kittens, delivered 3 days back"

 Hearing that, somehow, I felt bad on the way i treated her and so as a confession part, I threw a small fish piece from my plate to her. She ate and as a token of happiness , she gave 2 - 3 meowsss staring at me. I felt a spark of happiness.

Now, my unnamed friend follows me when I take my plate and go to kitchen. I am kind of ok in hearing the meowwsss and I am liking the cute staring look. Sometimes passing palms on the furry body is of pleasure giving moment. Slowly I am liking the new companion as others in my PG.

She is kind of a member of this PG and  a lunch buddy for all. Moreover, staying without any rent. Lucky Cat :-P

Returning to Blogging..... A glance on Modiji and Economics as an Investor

Hi People,

So after long days am back to Blogging, I was surprised to see a good traffic on these days even though I didnt blog any new posts. Probably its because I didnt blog any new posts ;-)

  The last Post was about my way to the selection of my new Mob SONY XPERIA SP. So I remember, I bought mobile on previous October around and its around now more than 6 months I am into in this account. Was busy with office works and Enjoying Life in its way.

When Iam posting this article...I would sadly like to say, Current Market Price for my Mobile Xperia SP is Rs 14000/-.....a fall back of 9000/Rs :-( . But, Iam happy that even now it is giving a good performance without any lag.

On these days, I was beating the bushes around Share market as I thought I would make good profit in Sensex because of so called Modi Wave. But Actually, I invested in MMTc(Govt have around 90% + share for this) and IVRCLI and then what?....it is still in same position.. No Profit !

So, then I read so many posts and articles on why there is no instant result or reflection in profit. On these days, I got several messages in Whats app mocking Modiji...Messages are like, Girl asks to Her Father What Modiji Did and Father says...He gave great speeches on Tiananmen square, Madison Square, Hyderbad and Then Daughter asks what he will do, Father replies like Now, He will give a good speech on Republic Day.

Then after I read more into this...I found..these anti Modi Jokes, articles where a cover up. We cannot expect a man to change whole economy in a short span where other party ruled for around 60 years. We should give time...and one Thing we should note is that, he is taking steps which wont give an instant result...but result is on the way... I thought only I had the problem - Instant Gratification..but so many anti modi messages are taking the advantage of Instant Gratification mindset of Indians.

There are so many initiatives from Modiji, starting from Abolishing Eoms and Goms to Constructing a Quadrilateral Diamond Rail Network in India. Just google "What modiji did after winning election?"...you will get good articles.

Iam a neutral citizen who has got no interest in politics, but i surely want to give a chance to a person who made his career from a tea seller to the PM of a nation. Lets wait and see....and if it works

World Of Android

  Mobile Pick for around 20,000RS :

 GALAXY GRAND DUOS / LENOVO S820 / XPERIA SP / XPERIA C

So, it’s a long time I have been writing a blog. Recently, I owned an Android Mobile Sony Xperia Sp. Thought of writing about the cell specifications and my suggestions on phones around 20k, as I referred pretty good number of sites for selecting a good one.

My first knowledge about the cell around 20k was Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos. It is a handsome selection on this range but I didn’t want to own it as it is very common and does not have any peculiar features which makes it outstanding. 

I loved being the owner of Sony Vaio Laptop even though it is somewhat overpriced. I believe the extra bucks goes to the quality of the product and elegant design (Specially the Vaio logo..I love it). So, I went a glance through Sony Mobiles and I was not disappointed by their design and technical specifications when coming to mobile industry. Unlike Laptops, Sony Mobiles was not overpriced that much.

I stuck on two products: Sony Xperia SP and Sony Xperia C.

Both has got it’s Pros and Cons and is worth for it’s money also.

SP has got a 4.6inch screen with sharp display. C has got large 5inch display with good display(not sharp as SP).

XPERIA C

What I liked the most is that, SP has got a LED bar at the bottom which has got several light notification illuminations for missed call, messages, call, music player beat light effects etc. We can even turn it off if we think that it drains battery. But trust me, One and half Day is the normal battery strength for this mobile if we use Wifi, Call, Message,Music Player and Game around 1-2 hour each.(Normal Usage). C also has got LED notification but it is of very tiny kind.

XPERIA SP

Sony Xperia C is also good for 20k,While SP is for 23k. SP has got NFC while C doesn’t have. C has got removable battery while SP doesn’t have. C has got Quad Core processor with 1.2Ghz and Sp has got Dual Core Processor with 1.7 GHZ. But Quad Core Mediatek(Cheaper chip) delivers around the same performance as Dual Core Qualcomm Snapdragon Processor. So, in turn that doesn’t make a big deal unless you are a hardcore gamer dealing with heavy load delivering games.

C and Sp has got 8mp Camera. One Strong advantage of C is that it is of dual sim compatible type.

Coming to Micromax brand, it delivered Canvas doodle 2 and all with spectacular specifications and a great Camera Quality also. Only thing, I doubted in their brand was the lifetime. As it has emerged in market with full strength recently, I dint play with my 20k for a risk deal. But, being fair.. my friend is owning Micromax A110 for past 6 months and till now, he is very happy with it’s performance. I also respect the brand for it’s aim of delivering nice products with reasonable price. When they had Hugh Jackman as their brand ambassador recently, I liked the brand even more ;)

Lenovo S820 was a very good pick for 20k : Dual Sim, 12Mp camera,2mp Front Camera, 1.2ghz Quad Core. As I reside in India, I’am very well aware of their bad service and after warranty repair quality. So I rejected that option also.

Atlast, I picked XPERIA SP as I don’t want any extra sim luxury and concentrated on the sharper display and was mesmerized with the LED bar notifications.

Sweetnes after the Bitterness...Happiness after the Sadness

                            Yeah..today I'am just being a kind of philosophical. Dunno, if my thoughts are right or wrong but as in a movie dialogue " my fate is my decisions" .

                             Missing parents and sister from a long distance, impatience on sitting behind the bars of project allocation, searching for a new settlement in Bangalore etc made my mind filled up with chaos . As my mom taught me, when there is a problem prevails in your mind..dont worry...if you havn't done anything wrong for being in that problem, then go to god...he will show you the path.

                              Tuesday, had a morning bath - dressed up quickly - said to ma buddys that will meet up in bus stop - went to temple. Prayed to the god starting with a sorry for not approaching him for a while as I was busy in meeting up with all in hometown (previous week I had a short visit to hometown). Prayed to sort out my problems....the Brahman gave me prasadam(small food from temple as god's food to us with blessings) on a leaf and I tasted it. Yeah.....feeling yummy...on my second take, the little prasadam was over.

Tuesday went away as if there is no development in the existing scenario of chaos. Perhaps, I should not have expected to give god a One day time period to solve all my problems. This is what we all do, we expect sudden result after a short 5 minutes visit to the temple...expecting some miracle to happen. I blamed my foolish thought and consoled myself on waiting for the best.

                             Wednesday, woke up little bit early - had a morning bath - dressed up quickly - said my byes - went to temple. Prayed again....nowadays the praying statements flow automatically as the same statements have been repeating from my mouth for last one month and each day is going with no improvement in the scenario. This time, I dint had my prasadam fully....I wished to share it with my friends as now I don't have much craving mind for having it fully. I ate little bit, and hold the leaf with the remaining prasadam. Went to the stop and shared with friends.

Wednesday also went away with such no development. Rather the office situation is getting worse as the day goes.

Next day was my reckoning thought provocation day.

                           Thursday, had the same morning routine and this time I saw a lady having prasadam before me. Brahman gave him a lots of prasadam this time on a paper. I patiently stood even after my essay for prayer has been over..because I too want that amount of prasadam. Brahman approached me and gave 4  scoops of prasadam. I was so happy that this time every one can have a good amount even after sharing it.
I got out of the temple, wore my shoes and started walking. I then opened the paper and had my first gulp of prasadam..... ohhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! ...... what happened to the prasadam on this day !! it was supposed to be sweet.... It's spicy and bitter...bizarre!!! I didn't dare to take the second gulp.
             
                       On my walk to bus stop, thoughts were flowing through my mind on what to do with the prasadam...should i give it to the poor people who is starving on the way...should i share it with my friends...Suddenly A Thought ..I should say a Call came into my mind behind these strange incidents.


     Prasadam is just a copy of events happening in our life. When that lady got the prasdam, I was like..i too want that much amount...why should the lady only have that much amount. It happens to every one of us daily life. We think, what others are having is very beautiful and pleasant one and we also wish for the same. Once we get that, we realize how much tedious it is and what all problems are they facing.

   At first i had a thought.."should i give it to poor people.." ::::: Will i do this if i had a small quanity of delicious prasadam?....I didn't do on Tuesday or Wednesday. So, it's like...we want happiness to be core centered on our own world but sadness should not be the same.

  I then cancelled the plan to share it with my friends after this reckoning thoughts provocated in my mind. Because, I wanted to thank god on setting an example on this small prasadam and showing it to me " Life doesn't contain only of sweet prasadams...and all are not having sweet prasadams every time even if it seems so..."

On the way, I kept that remaining amount on a stone typically having a man's height by thanking god and confessing for the mindset of expecting for a sudden change in my life after praying for some days...

Anyways....still the wait is going on and the Faith never dies if it is a Faith ..... :)

Which Programming Language to learn?

              If our era was of 1800 or before, then this question wouldn't have a relevance. Unfortunately or fortunately, now we are living in a world designed by a numerious programming languages. Every beginner or geek or job seeker are stunned and trying to cope up the race where the man with deep knoweldge as well as the domain knowledge on the latest hot programming language trend, earns the race medal. So, which language we have to learn so as to qualify this race and earn a reputation. I won't give the answer for this as simple as you think. Infact, I'am no one to give the answer. It' all upto you to decide after reading this.
 
                  There is no point in narrating the whole history and evolution by saying " first it was called "code" then one of the major languages FORTRAN and COBOL came, after that...." .  There are no shortage of languages already and yet the individuals & I.T Giants are launching object oriented, scripting, functional languages and many more. It's obvious that a person cannot study all languages in a short time. But it's a difficult task rather than an impossible task. That means, a person can study any language he wants provided some conditions he should meet.

 For a beginner, i would like them to pick from the shopping cart consisting of Java, C++, C & SQL.

Studying C is for the basic beginners. They will be introduced with the concepts of programming languages and the first division in programming language -> Functional Level Coding. So to be thorough with that, you can got for C learning. But it won't be a demanding one nowadays but all it can do is that, it can make your rest of the journey smooth. Otherwise it's like aiming for Black Belt directly without learning to attain White Belt,Blue belt, Purple belt and Brown Belt.

By learning Java and C++, you can make up yourself prepared for any other Object Oriented Programming Languages. First you learn C++ and then Java. It's said that If you can learn the logic behind C++, then you will find an ease to grasp Java. And if you can learn logic in Java, then you can study any other Object oriented programming language very easily.

Database is a demanding area for now and ever. Data is the only thing which our world and we deals with. Success of a new technology and language solely depends on how efficient it is in dealing with data (storing as well as presenting or processing data). So, studying a Database Language is a must for all who wants to long live in techy background. Regarding Database Language, as all I will also suggest SQL. It's a nice language which can aid your journey to a Database world. It all deals with the logic on how to insert, delete, update the tables and the over all view of tables and it's characteristics.


For printing a fibonacci series, we can write several logics, using a while loop and by using recursion also.



1.Normal Method in C++

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

main()
{
int n, c, first = 0, second = 1, next;

cout << "Enter the number of terms of Fibonacci series you want" << endl;
cin >> n;

cout << "First " << n << " terms of Fibonacci series are :- " << endl;

for ( c = 0 ; c < n ; c++ )
{
if ( c <= 1 )
next = c;
else
{
next = first + second;
first = second;
second = next;
}
cout << next << endl;
}
  return 0;
}

2. Recursive Method in C++

#include<iostream.h>
#include<conio.h>

rec_fibo(int);

void main()
{
clrscr();


int n,i;

cout<<"Enter the total elements in the series : ";
cin>>n;
cout<<"\nThe Fibonacci series is:\n";
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
cout<<rec_fibo(i)<<" ";
}

getch();
}

rec_fibo(int n)
{
if(n==0)
return 0;
else if(n==1)
return 1;
else
return rec_fibo(n-1)+rec_fibo(n-2);
}

         Both ways yield same output. But what matters is the logic behind which yields output as well as efficiency. Efficiency means efficiency in time of processing, using memory space etc. All it brings you on the other level of coding. To reach the 2nd way, you have to study the 1st way. It's a natural philosophy that, you can run only after learning to walk. Same applies here !!! .....


   

         
                   

              

Stepping into Reader's World......

                   I still remember my friend's statement after we watched harry potter movie :

                            " This is not as much interesting as we find in harry potter books."

                  Me : " Are you mad?....we are trying very hard to get away from college books and you are encouraging in still sticking to book world !!! "

         His reply was so convincing but it didn't had enough push on me in order to start reading habit.

             " Yea...you won't understand until you read a book. Film is like picturing a directors and scriptwriters imagination into a rectangular frame for 2 hours. We are trying to enjoy their imagination. While in reading, we are into the world imagined by ourself and enjoying the new possibilities of imagination."


  I wanted to ask , then reading is like building our own world on the floor written by a third person (writer). Yet, i dint ask as I know he will figure out some more arguments and push me to read and I don't want it to happen.

                   After 4 years, when i got job..circumstances made me to get away from day scholar life and started to share a flat with my room cum office buddies. One Sunday, I came across through a book "One Night at the Call Center" on our table. Till then I have heard a lot about the author Chetan Bhagat and his works "3 Mistakes of My Life"& "Five Point Someone". I have even gifted his latest work "Revolution 20 20" to one of my friends but I dint read even a single page of it. Very boring Sunday and no option to time pass urged me ..more than I have to say...my subconscious mind told me to take that and read.

                     I took the book..laid on bed...started to read it's preface.

  Much better than my old social science books which had tiny tiny letters and have to put half an hour to go through a single page. He is very intelligent in not letting the reader to put more strain on reading. Letters are pretty big and prior to a scenario, each scene has been drawn clearly in my mind through his  explanatory words. Hardly 10 minutes...almost I'a getting near to complete the preface. I couldn't trust myself that am reading a book which has nothing to give and take with ma academics...

              "ding dong....ding dong...." Door bell started to cry as if it is more irritated than me in reading.

My friend is here ...Yea !! now there is another option to pass the time. Of course, I will choose the latest one which have got more experience in my life than the " new getting familiarized habit".

          Dunno where the book went, may be it's owner took back and kept it in bag. These book readers are much interested in preserving the books which they have read. What do they think?....Are books in endangered species list to get this much safety and concern. Even women or tiger doesn't get this much safety in this world.

                   After 6 years, now I'am stuck in a home where there is no internet as well as no free day time to have fun. After the office, me with ma roommates had chitchat in home and goes to sleep. This lazy routine made me angry and when I get angry, I eat !! .... One day, I was searching for some snacks on ma table and I found a book's backside. I was like " Ohh....I have seen somewhere this book...I know this colour " ... I tilted to read the front part of book and it was the same old one " One Night at the Call Center" . Ofcourse, past haunts present !! .... seems like this book is at correct place & at correct time now. No external disturbances....fed up of the lazy routine..... nice environment to get a new habit. Took it...laid on the bed...read the first line of preface.

    I still remember the preface clearly and I went through it v.fast...looked on clock ... time is "6.30pm" . Nothing to do... Ok, will continue with this. Read....read...read......got a call from my friend " hey, come on.it's time to eat..let's go to hotel" ...

looking on clock me to myself : " What??.....8.30pm !! .... "

Found the interesting fact that ..I'am slowly finding  much interest in reading.....

It's been 3 days now...slowly I'am reaching to the last page of book and it's very interesting. Sometimes I open the e-book of the same and read it in office.... Yea !! I'am also a beginner now...stepping into Reader's World !!

Inner View of Corporate Life Style as a Fresher

              Life from college life to a Corporate world was not so easy to digest even though initial 8 days were of exploring things,new stuffs, new culture and everything.

              Even though there is a HR department for the care of emotions of employees, when there is an issue no one likes to see the inner view of emotions the employee goes through or the friendship that gets affected. Only they aim is to stick to rules and regulations and obey the orders. But of course, sometimes there are people n every department which comes as a life saver for each one when he/she is in a problem. The point of appearance of the life saver all depends on FATE which has been decided on the basis of your PAST ACTS!!!


             People from different states and nations mingle each other and they create a very strong bond in short time. Suddenly on a  sun rise, they will be ordered to split and work in different locations. This is the basic thing I have found out something fishy in Corporate.


        A coffee cum tea machine offered in each floor is one of those facilities offered for free. But, there is a inside logic behind this. Coffee contains caffeine which stimulates the working nature of brain. Tea ingredients also does the same. So in short  it catalysts the productivity of each employee which in turn improves the quality of human resource of the company on the working time. They only want us to take a cup of coffee/tea/milk/hot water and go back to the bay/cubicle and have a zip and solve the programmatic issue on which we are working. Fact that is stated was from a health care specialist( presented on


behalf of Venky's Health Care)  who told us about the long term side effects of in taking of continuous coffee/tea. It's better if you take Hot Water/ Skimmed Milk.


       Next thing you are gonna face in Company is the Silent Competition. I would like to re quote a great man's statement -  "Silent Person has the Loudest Mind" . Of course, it proves here... Buddy who smiles at you will be the one who opts for a way without caring you. Each one has got his own race to reach at the top and increase the salary/allowances/grabbing the credits.

    Regarding the relationships, it proves an article i read somewhere that the concept of co-working husband is getting spread among youngsters. It's not a true case for everyone yet it is true for a good proportion of workers. Always there is a cross gender friendship which can be a blessing at the times of real stressed environments in company. Taking the case of Gals/Ladies, they can't share their company issues to their husband or b.f outside the company in full fledged emotions as those guys are not at all aware of the happenings inside the company. So gradually they find out someone inside the company who can share their emotions at their own level and can find solutions/suggestions. Same thing happens to boys also. So cross gender friendship starts with the persons sitting near your bay and ends in sharing lunches. Fact has been stated by several popular articles and I have been seeing the live happening of this Fact.


Last but not the least , as all say disregard of hate, dislike, envy etc, we have to stick together and work as a team. Only then, "Success" comes in our hand. Mere team work doesn't pave the way for success. Smart work should also accompanied and Sometimes it works....as ma friend said " Hard work can Overtake Smart work" !!!

Ever Thought How You Enjoy A 3D Film??..

                                     Welcome to the 3D world where even your short film can be delivered to an audience with a whomping 3D effects.


              Have you ever thought how you are able to view the movie in 3D by just wearing a Goggles  ??? :-/

Yesterday I was watching G.i.joe Retaliation 3D Movie in INOX multiplex theater with my buddies and we were stunned because of their awesome 3D effects integration through out the movie action sequences. So thought of how it works !!

         These technical freaks discovered this technology by having a research right from our daily life. See, how we are able to see a 3D world around us...? ...how we are able to know your pc is at a distance from you?...you are at a safe distance from your dad while he is scolding..?.... All this is because of 2 inches between your eyes. Each eye of you take a perspective view of their own and give the image to the brain. Brain maps these 2 images of same scene and makes a depth based view.

We will find our answer to 3D technolgy of our own...let's have a small research !!
                                    So,if our brain gets two images of a same movie scene then it can make a depth based view (3D view). But how we can do it?... In physics there is a property called Polarisation. We can make a polarised glass so that it can allow to pass only those waves which have a particular orientation of wavelength. So if our right eye has got a particular polarised glass and left eye has got another particular polarised glass then our brain will get two images. Here comes the role of Goggles with polarised glasses. So here we have to project two scenes of same image passed through two different polarised filters. That's why we see a double image on the screen when we remove the Goggles and watch on the screen with bare eyes.

       



This is commonly used technology in all theaters. While there are other technologies too..one of its is eclipse glasses where all the working is done by goggles. This LCD shutter glasses flickers and allows the respective images to be fed into respective eyes so that the viewer can have an illusion of 2 separate images. Here the goggle should be in sync with the theater screen which is done by connectivity.





This is all about 3D effects in Theater...Below image simply explains how the new 3D view enabled Tv Players work.

MICROMAX Back With a BANG!! - Canvas A110 & A116 HD

                           "Don't go for Micromax ! Itz better to go for Samsung or Apple..ok, you can have Nokia too." This was my statement when my friend put forward his desire to buy Micromax Canvas 2  A110. The basic reason behind this kinda negative approach was because of my view on Micromax Mobile as a poor established mobile company as few years back,they had a flop attempt to have an impact through advertisements and all. But Nothing Remains The Same !! .... Soon I realized when he bought Micromax Canvas 2 A110. Was astonished of what they offering in 10,000RS stuff - Smartphone with Dual-core 1 GHz Cortex-A9 processor, PowerVR SGX531 GPU , 8 MP camera, front camera,512 RAM, 4 GB internal memory(2 GB usable), Expandable upto 32GB, IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors 480 x 854 pixels, 5.0 inches (~196 ppi pixel density).

      So I realized, as a common non-tech savvy guy,,how much I was unaware of the promising growth of Micromax company. I was underneath the cataract of 4 years back failure story of a company which is  a trendy stuff in the current market scenario.




               Started on 1991, but for so many years it was just a start up company only. Recent years, it emerged as a roaring lion in Indian market and then to Asian market. Apart from mobile technologies, Led televisions also comes under the focus area. 3rd largest manufacturer in India, 12th largest handset manufacturer in the world. In the tablet world, as per of 2012 criteria they crossed the line drawn by samsung and apple in Indian tablet market. This is the short Bio-data of our buddy.


               A whooping valentines day offer was put forward by Micromax by introducing Canavas HD for Rs13,900. Whooping offer got a whooping sale too - 25 Units per minute, crossed 9000 units sale barrier within 24hours, They also got an introduction of Bolt A35 with a flasht transfer technique. This technique demands sharing of apps,games,music etc with just a swipe!!!


             



















Micromax adcampaigns emphasize on the rivalry against the high stakes of mobile industry Samsung and Apple by taking the slogan "I can afford this Phone " and several other ads.Hopefully they wont get any legal action from these guys who are very well in law suiting !!


               Anyways for the middle class people, who aims at luxury from reasonable cost..Micromax is a great boon for them and that's what the success recipe of this rapid growing Hulk is made of !! .ALL THE BEST :-)

Samosa Chatt Effect

                           Day before we had our first day in office, we went for a small walk ..just to know the new locality and the shops near by. We 3, Kiran, Ajay and me were walking on the road side. Each of us were giving a history summarization about the life in native place .

                                 Kiran liked to have social activities and to encourage open source programming. He was saying about his college and he was proud to say that he had no bitterness in his college life. While hearing this Ajay laughed and he told about his family. He misses his parents, friends a lot. When the turn came to me, I just smiled and told had everything in college life..both good and bad. I know I'am an introvert in expressing my inner feelings if its sad. Some times, that kinda introvert behaviour is good so that everyone near you will feel a nice vibration from you. But that vibration sometimes don't work..very soon I realized.

                                As we were having this conversation in parallel to the evening walk, we came across a small shop serving "samosa chatt" (one of the main snackz in north india). Seeing that i shouted and forced Kiran and Ajay to have and gave my word..that they will like it. How can a person ignore a word of another person who are on the way of creating friendship??...the same happened there. They came with me and had samosa chatt. After eating they were like 50-50 about the deliciousness of the new dish.

                               After one hour we were back into the flat and our other roommates Gijo and Ajmal were already busy in the kitchen making food. But half of that food was sent to the trash !! ... because the after effect of SAMOSA CHATT started in Kiran's and Ajay's stomach. May be because they are not used to with this dish. They were so disturbed on that night because of the stomach upset. After that hectic night,next day welcomed us with a shining company on the top of a hill. We found out new batchmates for the training session and was waiting for the introduction part from the company HR side. HR just came into the training room and asked for self introduction. Kiran and ajay were starring me in a way that , they are gonna sue me for the last night. I just gave a mischevious smile to them. I had only that option :-D .

                           After all guys self introduction, she asked us about howz pune?..the question which these guys were waiting to hear. They told how much lucky are they to come into office with an upset stomach. Thanx to them, they dint mention my name..but as they were giving the overall view of the Chatt Effect, they were starring me as if they are very much desperate to say "He is the man...he is that idiot who made us to taste that dish and made us in this condition" .

            Moral :- What is good for you wont be good for others !! This is a fact for thoughts, emotions, feelings, food..etc. Just a recreation of Albert Einsteins "Theory Of Relativity" in  a philosophical way. ;-)

Live from Pune .......

   So, friends..itz around 3 months I logged into ma blog. These 3 months was full of turning points in my life...I got my first job, joined in Oracle..so for that I shifted to Pune. "National Roaming"...this is the description my buddy gave to me when he heard of my wandering life.

                                  First day in pune started from a Monginis Coffee from pune railway station. Luckily Monginis made me to have a nice impression on pune which has already started to freeze me with itz 6 degree celsius climate. Climate change will be a very small descriptive for this place shifting because for me it was a drastic change...from a place where the climate ranges 28-32 degree celsius  to Pune where the temperature goes down below 5 degree celsius. Within 2 days, made our unfurnished 2bhk flat into furnished flat with 4 buddies from the same place to same company. By facebooking and through calls & messages we had a indirect friendship which helped us to get rid of the strange feeling that happens in between those people who wants to be buddys.

                                 So itz Jan 14th, in the shivering frozen climate of 6 degree celsius, we landed on the front gate of Mighty Oracle Company where we are gonna establish our career as a fresher. Seems like, half journey of the life is over. Felt very proud to stand with my dad in  front of that superior infrastructure. Dad boarded train on the next day and for all of us, our first days in life away from our home started. First day in office was like a curious baby in a play store. We were blinked with the waterfalls infront of the office, the crazy coloured walls and access card restricted entry on each room. We all thought , thats it...we are gonna enjoy as CORPORATES !!.... but...seems like we are wrong..itz been 27 days in Pune - The Cultural City of Maharashtra...we are struggling to cope up with the food style...with the climate..with the office timings..with the language "Marathi"..... The only relief is some nice friends in our batch ... Ajinkya,Piyush, Sangham, Sushanth, Abhijeet, Umakanth, Aditya,Mohsain,Vishaal....who proved "Unity in Diversity". The most awesome stuffs happens in the training sessions with these crazy fellows....and after getting into flat...my mentioned roommates from my native place Gijo, Ajay, Kiran & Ajmal. These buddys are with me on 24 * 7 hours...helping each other...cracking stupid jokes....in flat as well as in room.

                            Within 2 days we learnt that we can't study Marathi language as easy as we expected. So we decided in other way around. We started to teach our language to them.. :-P . Now, after 27 days..


Our flat is a living example of the great thought " Itz not the religion that matters...itz the Humanity that matters". One is from Christian, Another is from Muslim, Others are Hindus....But it doesnt make any difference in between us. We share food, we share thoughts, we share fun, we share feelings.... That's what a Life is and I'am happy to have it. Only difficulty is that, now I'am realizing how Mom Loved me, how Dad cared me and how Sis teased me with love.

I have got to share some interesting stuffs and stupid things happened to me. Will be on air very soon.... :-). Till then take care ...Itz Live from Pune - Am an engineer.

My life saver - Ramanujan (Legend of Indian Mathematicians) ~ A way of expressing my gratitude on his 125th Birthday (Dec 22 2012)

A commemorative stamp of Srinivasa Ramanujan.

                               Life saver doesn't point only those who give blood and saved you, who gave medical attention and saved you or who gave money and uplifted you from poverty. For me, Life saver also means to someone who helped me to attain ma aim/goal/ambition. So in a way, I'am owed to our beloved mathematician Ramanujan in giving me a job offer in TCS. Hehe..I know...You will be thinking how the man who passed away on 26 April 1920 offer me a job in TCS or helped me to get that. The story starts....

                               11 November 2012 : Our college has invited students for it's TCS recruitment. As every other candidates, I was also afraid a little bit as it was my first experience as a fresher. I was directed to a panel consisting of 2 people- 1 Technical recruiter and 1 H.R recruiter. After the "good morning" wish and little bit self introduction, they asked me to introduce myself. I did it quite well as it's a sure question and was prepared for that. After that H.R guy entered into G.K round..his first question was to me " Do you know Ramanujan's number?" .... After a pause...smile came into ma face..i told "yes sir, every engineer should know that.. 1729" .. From his reaction I was sure that he is impressed. I thanked to my old 10th tuition sir..who used to tell story of great legends and encourage us a lot. Anil sir ( 10th tuition sir), he was one of those men who inspired me a lot and he even tells the story behind these things in an interesting way so that we are not bored. All those memories still linker in ma brain.

                               After that 1729 question, suddenly Technical Lady smiled and told to the H.R sir hearing my answer " oh, sir.. i didnt know that number being an engineer" !! At that moment I thanked Ramanujan personally...because it's him who broke that ice berg and made a funny environment. So now the starting problem is over... Next step is to impress them more.. I interfered their talk smoothly and told to the Technical Lady " Madam, there's an interesting story behind that...lemme explain" she replied "oh,,is it?..tell" ..By god's grace by short term memory went to a long term memory and was letting all those Anil sir's stories in a smooth flow : "One day Ramanujan was hospitalized and his friend came to see him..in between casual talks friend told him that the car by which he came had an ugly number "1729" . Listening to this Ramanujan replied within a fracion of a second he replied that "1729 is the smallest number which can be expressed in sum of cubes of two numbers in two different ways" "

In wikipedia, you will get a quote like this

The number 1729 is known as the Hardy–Ramanujan number after a famous anecdote of the British mathematician G. H. Hardy regarding a visit to the hospital to see Ramanujan. In Hardy's words:^[91]

“

I remember once going to see him when he was ill at Putney. I had ridden in taxi cab number 1729 and remarked that the number seemed to me rather a dull one, and that I hoped it was not an unfavorable omen. "No," he replied, "it is a very interesting number; it is the smallest number expressible as the sum of two cubes in two different ways."

”

The two different ways are

1729 = 1³ + 12³ = 9³ + 10³.

Generalizations of this idea have created the notion of "taxicab numbers". Coincidentally, 1729 is also a Carmichael number.

So, hearing my description H.R guy gave a shake hand and then from that moment he talked very friend to me. That lady was also so happy . May she was missing stories after childhood. Lolz.

Today, it's Ramanujan's 125th Birthday and I express my gratitude towards him for being a life saver to achieve my aim of being an engineer in I.T field. He is of-course a legend in India as well as in Mathematics Science because all he had is a 32 year life span and the contribution he made in this very small duration is something worth-while valuable discoveries which is still being the basic ideas for the innovative explorations in modern science.

Interesting Facts of Expired Mayan Calendar !! :-D

                        So besides medical pills, mayans proved that calendars also has got it's expiry date. Let's get into some interesting facts of this controversial calendar.

          Actually mayan civilization invented this calendar and still it's been used by some mayan communities. So what calendar will they follow after Dec 21 2012.. That's upto their desire...whether to follow english calendar or any other cultural calenders. Anyways one thing I'am pretty sure is that at the nyt of Dec 21 2012..they would have enjoyed of getting rid of their cultural fear.

           The Mayan Calendar consists of three separate corresponding calendars, the Long Count, the Tzolkin(divine calendar) and the Haab (civil calendar). Time is cyclical in the calendars and a set number of days must occur before a new cycle can begin.The three calendars are used simultaneously. The Tzolkin and the Haab identify and name the days, but not the years. The Long Count date comes first, then the Tzolkin date and last the Haab date. A typical Mayan date would read: 13.0.0.0.0 4 Ahau 8 Kumku, where 13.0.0.0.0 is the Long Count date, 4 Ahau is the Tzolkin date and 8 Kumku is the Haab date.

This replica of a Mayan Calendar Round represents September 21, 2004, the opening of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian on the National Mall. The calendar round is actually two separate calendars, or cycles, one cycle governs religious practices (260 days) and the other governs agricultural work (365 days).

        According to mayans their calendar comes to an end on Dec21 2012 and the earth will perish based on some meteorate crash or flood or fire..

           U.S.A space research centre NASA announced the "not occurrence" of world end, 10 days before the Dec 21. 

dreaming a new phase of life in 3012....

                                  Did you ever think how will be the life style after 1000years?  I always was so enthusiastic in dreaming how the life will change in 3012. Anyways, we wont be alive in that period but wanted to have a glimpse on the way of living.

                                   Ofcourse, we believe that we are lucky in living this 21st century rather than that old 90's where our grandfathers lived...ok..will rewind a longgggg....we are so lucky compared to our early man life style.  Just think, how it will be for our future predecessors in 3012??...For them, we are their early men. But there's a 50-50 chance of them comparing our life style with their's as worse or best. Because as we all are polluting each and every natural resource and exploiting the same, there's nothing left for the future in 3012 to enjoy...even Oxygen !!(indirectly implying the Deforestation Vandalism part of Human beings).

                                   One thing I can guarantee is the Technology part. Yeah, each day technology idea are bursting out in such a manner that after 5 years a man have to tap his desk to use the same as a full powered PC. Then, how luxurious and fantastic it will be  after 100 years...after 200 years...after 1000years.

In 3012, probably man have to think or wish or wave a stick(technically remote) like harrypoter and the desired stuff/action is executed in a millisecond. For all these,man have to give a cost and ofcourse in 3012 it would be not coins/money..rather it would be some Oxygen in a compressed tube or extra life span in a transistor kind of stuff. Survival of the fittest...so in that world..only he/she would survive who has got more oxygen tubes or a stuff that increase life span. So, for a super computer enabled Goggles, he/she needs to give 1000Litres of Oxygen or 50 years of added life span to the dealer. All these weird ideas will come true because it's clearly depicted in this modern world that..even in 21st century..man is wishing to have a stuff for immortality. So why don't he/she will be willing to control his death/life span using a technology driven stuff.

Oxygen Tubes as Currency ..wtf??..What The Future??

                                    I started of saying, there's a chance of our life being worser compared to the life style of 3012. But now, when we thought deeper according to our relevant actions towards the humanity, Bio-diversity and Nature...it's so crystal clear that..in the ruining world/ spooling life style... our Life span is more good compared to those difficulties which should be faced in 3012. Even there's a technology burst out, the cost for it will be some thing weird which will try to make his/her life survivable in that world. Now it's money which bring's corruption, bribe, murders etc. So there's something waiting which is more worser than money. Ooopss!!!

                             

   Civilization will grew in such a way that Man has to cover all his body parts and beware of rape threat from 3012 women*. So what will women wear??...Haha..don't think too much of the dress..because they are not gonna wear at all..yeah!!..ofcourse..then what you are gonna expect..just see around..dress lengths are shortening in an exponential rate for girls and the courage of them are increasing in an infinite rate. Don't get any ideas of molesting them or abusing them...because in 3012, if you give a dare for it then it will end up in your murder. Weird but True which is gonna face by our 1000th generation.

                                  What about transportation??...you have to go to your friend's home (which is probably a robot by that time) 4000miles away from your home. Yeah..here we introduce the brand new transportation where you dont have to need spend even 1 minute to travel from America to Canada..that is TelePortation!!! Quantum teleportation concept is a flaming topic in the brains of 2012 scientists which is yielding some expected results till now.  It is a way of traversing the physical object from one place to another place without mattering the physical distance between them.

               


      Started to type with dreaming a life in 3012 by standing in 2012. Ended up with an awareness of Sustainable Development where each men respects each other as well to other natural resources without any exploitation. Seems only Transportation part is more thrilling one than nowadays. ;-).
