Do Not Multi-task

A few quick reasons not to multi-task:
1. Multi-tasking is less efficient, due to the need to switch
gears for each new task, and then switch back again.
2. Multi-tasking is more complicated, and thus more prone to
stress and errors.
3. Multi-tasking can be crazy, and in this already chaotic
world, we need to reign in the terror and find a little oasis of
sanity and calm.

i have tried this and it's all true!

Wicktionary Bookmarklet

A bookmarklet is defined by Wictionary as "A small piece of JavaScript code stored as a URL within a bookmark". I have been using bookmarklets to make my life easier from a long time. Some that I use regularly are [Read Now] : This makes it really easy for me to read pages which are unreadable. [Google Translate] : Translates pages [Mobilise This] : Formats the page for mobile viewing by Google. [Acronym lookup] : This helps me find the meanings for abbreviations. The links in [] brackets are bookmarklets. Just drag them to your bookmark bar. I picked these up from these two pages. There is also a whole website dedicated to them bookmarklets. As a developer, what i like about bookmarklets is that they are coded in JavaScript and i can meddle with them till my heart's content, without worrying about breaking anything. However, i wanted a bookmarklet that would allow me to look up meaning of words. Wiktionary was my open dictionary of choice. They d...

When you say........

......you don't believe in god, you admit there is a god to believe in This is the meme post that started this train of thought in my mind.   I have heard one of my classmates say a long time ago, if women truly believed that they were equal to men, then they would not fight for it. While I never accepted it, i didn't know how to speak against it either. but it was there, somewhere in my mind. I think i made some sense out of it, at last. This is stupidity. This is like saying 'If we Indians seriously believed that freedom was ours, we would never have had to fight for it'. The fight for independance was a fight to make the other party understand and/or accept your viewpoint. The first resonable method might be to consider the other person's viewpoint. And using that as a base point,then work, with suitable proof and arguments, raise, alter, or reconstruct their viewpoint to match ours. This method follows the logic that people can and will be fair in an...

The first half of 2017 in review

Hi people, Half the year is over and i think its good to list out things, so that i have an idea as to how i am doing with my studies ( and pretty much everything else ). It's been a wonderful and fulfilling half year, to be honest. I did a lot of things I always wanted to do.  I started experimenting with hydroponics - haven't really progressed much, but I am sure I will do something substantial in the other half of the year. Benefits are a lot over traditional way, and the joy of watching your plants grow are invaluable, at the least. I read a few books on history. I have always wanted to do this , but I always had an excuse or 2 to avoid it. I finally started, and it's brought me a sense of childlike wonder, something I sorely missed. I cleaned my home! That's 20 years of procrastination right there! It was insane but I got it done. Whew! And wow!  At the beginning of the year, i finished my re-study of the CS subjects. Post February, i opened th...
