Another fine day

As the title suggests, you might be expecting a day with bright sunlight around, mild breeze brushing through your hair, trees swaying in delight and some things like that. Ok, I admit, I was never too good at things like these. Describing nature and all, reminds me of a book I had for class X named The Village by the Sea, written by Anita Desai if I remember right. Well more than the actual storyline what I remember is the fantastic description of nature, a bit boring at times, though it was an awesome book overall. So as I was saying, you might be expecting all this, but not quite the "scene" here, its raining, and heavily at that, cats and dogs or whatever you like to call it. But the mornings are ok, atleast the 20 minutes I take from home to office. The weather is pleasant and there is a huge gush of air towards the entrance of my office, which is quite refreshing.

What are the drawbacks of not reviewing an article before publishing? Well quite a lot, grammar, spelling errors, construction errors, what not.. The good part? I will atleast publish an article. Because my review is kindof extreme. I write something now, five minutes later when I read it, it looks like crap to me and I rephrase and it loses all its originality and I dump it! When people ask, what are your hobbies, I do not forget to mention blogging. But unfortunately, I hesitate to share it, giving random excuses like its in the midst of a revamp and so on. If you ask me why, well, lets just say I keep thinking its not good enough. Now it seems to have settled in my head that it is ok to err at times. It is ok to publish a messy article, its just failure which leads to success after all. And by the way, who reads your posts anyway, its not like you're publishing an open letter to BBC, is it? But let me tell you, I'm still confused from where the German and French people find my blog. I have given it the most 'randomest' name possible.

At this point, I'd like to thank my manager for giving me two entire free days at office to tickle my creative side as well. Hope this 'vacation' does not continue forever!

The crux of the matter is, I do not have much to type in here and I end up wasting the time of people reading my blog, which is not good, trust me, not good! But then this is my only blog, I have to write, as I have written in the brief description about me, there is this thirst, and to quench this thirst I should write. And when do I get to write? When I have an idea, and when do I have an idea, when I read or watch or come across something interesting in my life. Lets just say nothing of that sort, nothing inspirational has crossed my path recently, or maybe I am not aware. But still I try but only to fail. I know I'm  making no sense here, yes I am aware that I should stop.

Status : STOPPED pending enquiry.

Wait a minute, this is no spot fixing thing I'm doing here. Then what is it? Yes so I have been reading fancy books recently, and my childhood dream just pops up. To write a book. Am I knowledgable enough? Well? Guess I'm better than those television soap directors. About writing a book, it is something that I attempted for the first time when I was in class 4, in fact I had even designed a paper back edition, but later I dropped the idea as I lost interest. I have tried it many times in between but failed. Even at this point of time, I'm not sure if I should write, but lets see.  Where do we start, we need a plot. Do i have one? No, but lets just say I can think of something. What would be the theme? I have always wanted to write an investigation novel. Backdrop: Mystery.

With this aim in mind, I have even tried to finish a very thick Sherlock Holmes edition. Only to realise later that I have failed. This time I hope it will be different. One post a day and it would be split up in chapters and further split up into parts. So thats the plot. Woah! Wait a minute? Who is leading the investigation? Chill, chill. I can come up with my own version of CID Ramdas and CID Vijay or is it constable Vijay? Ok only malayali guys would understand that. And by the way, its Malayali and not mallu! With that I take a break, but be around folks, I'l be right back with a plot, a very thick one ! This reminds me of the misuse of a certain phrase in a malayalam movie. I can't recollect the movie's name. Got it! 'Smart City' They excessively use: "Blood is thicker than water". No idea what made me mention this here. Anyway, with that I'm done here. Let me have lunch, then I'l be back...

WATCH THIS SPACE FOR MORE
Yes, I wanted to use something cliched. Check.

Decision Sciences - Post 1

#ShortPost - will cover it all over a period of time With the increasing importance of data in making decisions, let us look at some of the data related terms used in statistics which can help you make data driven decisions. Types of variables: Two important types of variables which should not leave you stunned are: Categorical (or nominal) variables Ordinal variables Categorical:  A categorical variable (sometimes called a nominal variable) is one that has two or more categories, but there is no intrinsic ordering to the categories. Ordinal: An ordinal variable is similar to a categorical variable.  The difference between the two is that there is a clear ordering of the variables.  Interval: An interval variable is similar to an ordinal variable, except that the intervals between the values of the interval variable are equally spaced.  Check the following link for more details: http://stats.idre.ucla.edu/other/mult-pkg/w...

Telangana: Do or Don't

I write this just a few minutes after a discussion with my team at work. Well it was a heated as well as a humorous debate but I was just a silent spectator as mostly Andhra guys were speaking and for the record, we had people belonging to Seemandhra(Non Telangana) and Telangana side as well. My honest opinion in this issue is that a state should not be divided. I have not done a detailed research about this topic so far. Today I heard some claims that Telangana people have been deprived of many resources and opportunities for a long period of time. If that is the case then a lot more has to be understood by myself before I pass a statement on this issue. However my general stand that a state should not be divided remains firm. What is this issue all about? Why did it come up for discussion today? The basic reason is the fact that, today in all leading national newspapers, the headline is: To quote Times of India: " Protest continues; trains, airports, hospital services...

How Flickr Did It Right

First of all, I would like to thank Chris Brogan for giving bloggers like me something to write about. Yes. In his blog he has given a list of 100 topics which he hopes that bloggers write about. In his blog he has clearly explained how some people approach him and ask about how he manages to get topics to blog about each day. He has explained how his situation is quite the opposite as for him, he has too much to write about. Not boring you anymore with my reporting. "He said, He hopes, He explained" Ok no more. So one of the topics I got from that list was: "How Flickr Did It Right" There were  a variety of topics to choose from but I chose this because I wanted to do some research before writing. Let me be honest here. At this moment when I start writing I have no clue what it is. Yes I do know its part of the popular new generation networking band wagon and that it has something to do with sharing. Maybe pics or reports or articles. I donno. In fact, I dou...
