The Little Coder's Predicament

Nice story...and a very good point on programming language becoming so technical and out of reach for general populace who though may not be highly tech educated but still have love for logic and coding. Where has BASIC and LOGO like language gone. If they had not been around, I am sure i would never have become and be in the profession I love.

Rishikesh here I come....going on a camping trip

Will be leaving for Rishikesh for the camping trip....hope to do some heavy duty adventure stuff like white water rafting...trekking and obviously camping...till further news thats about...next update after coming back on Monday.

Something about Rishikesh as per Wikipedia and WikiTravel...
Rishikesh(Hindi: ऋषिकेश) is a small town in the northern state of Uttarakhand in India.Rishikesh, litterally: "Hair (kesh) of the sage" (rishi), is a holy city for Hindus located in the foothills of the Himalaya in northern India.Rishikesh translates to mean He who has conquered his senses (Sanskrit: Rishik {senses} + Ish {master}.Legend states that Lord Rama did penance here for killing Rāvaṇa, the demon king of Lanka. It is also known as the gateway to the Himalayas and is located about 25 kilometers away from another holy city, Haridwar. Scenically located where the Ganges River comes down from the Himalayas, Rishikesh catapulted to Western fame when the Beatles dropped by for a visit to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's ashram (now closed), and the town is still known as the world capital of yoga.

Feeling a bit low today...

Don't know what happened, but right from the morning i was feeling as if i have just got down from a fast ride on ferris wheel(i hate those...)...manish was also down with something...nothing much today in office...we kept trying to connect the RadRail tools to server...kept on failing. In my last post, one thing i missed was to tell about the fabulous sense humor of the ONLY lady in our team...surbhi...she has a British sense of humor. First you will just not know what hit you, and then everyone will bend over laughing...today i bore the brunt(not in bad sense!)...And i feel hook , line and sinker...it happened that me and vikram were on sutta break and told vikas(our Man Friday in Office) to tell us if manish or the trainer comes in...our Anand ji and says that manish is here...i rushed back from the balcony and met surbhi there...she was sitting in the reception...ask asked her when manish came back and she with perfect poker face, replied that he has been in office for long...now i ran inside(well you can understand....manager in office and i was outside in balcony)...well as it turned out manish had not come in...everyone had a laugh including me...anyway it feel suck to be down with upset stomach...

working on Saturday....that should shucks(a.k.a combination of the 2 famous word in English)....well interestingly i am enjoying....how nerdy and un-cool, right?...lol....well that how the company which i joined...has a very different kind of management set-up...(not exactly but something like the fabled and of-repeated google work environ...or they are trying)....lot of good music...courtesy vikram(our cool art designer)...lot of brain storming(outsiders may think we are fighting...but as they say when great minds collide, there is bound to be music!!!) like me and sushil...(and i enjoy it...as they say, it sharpens the mind)...interesting conversation with kaushik,arun and hemant...sutta break with anand...and stealing suttas from manish..would anyone not enjoy in office...and we now planning to have a TV for sports also....

Check this news...

Do you agree?...check this out...
Is Left in India a hypocrite?

Are we Mad to travel by Bus in Delhi?

Recently i joined a new company(as i mentioned in the prev post) and it is located quite far far from the place i live(my manger manish may dispute this point...) and as sadly i don't have any vehicle of my own(that sucks...at this age...though i am planning to buy one...well i am digressing), i have use the "Great Public Transport" a.k.a THE BUS, both public and private. Incidentally where my office is located is only a temp site...it is going to be shifted. The buses in Delhi drive like all hell has been let loose. Like yesterday when i was returning home in bus 764, there was another 764 right behind our bus....and then started the eternal battle which is always played out on the streets of most Metros and in its wake leaves shaken nerves, bad moods and a headache. The buses compete like they are gladiators of old roman times. The stops at the Bus Stops becomes like a pit stop in a F1 race....you have to jump of or onto the bus...and if you miss...well we will always miss you!!!. Government is (has and will be) thinking of introducing High Capacity Bus System...there is one only one a short route...people say the problem is with government, infrastructure,etc but main problem is the attitude of the drivers/conductors...and not only of the buses...also other transports prevalent in india like auto...when that changes, something will happen...
