The blog post!

To start with, I think I should justify the heading, the title post, well, this is again one of those blog posts I'm putting in after a very very long time in which a lot of wonderful and not so wonderful things have happened in my life. Well thats why its called "The blog post!"

One of the books I have been recently reading is Sidin Vadukut's Who let the dork out?. About the book and all, its quite funny and interesting and it was more interesting for me as was written by a malayali. Some words randomly thrown here and there did make some sense to me! The sad part is that well, in between I got lazy and still have around 50 pages towards the climax.

This trait of my character that I identified is that I do not like to dive deep into anything. I might find something interesting and trust me, I dont even start with anything if I dont find it very interesting.I get the plot then I leave. Its too difficult to keep my interest pinned onto something.

But these days considering the fact that I do get some free time, I do want to do something more towards the productive side, which is why lets just say I resorted to books. All the other time I keep watching "The King" in which Mamootty is an IAS officer, therby drawing inspiration for something which I do not aspire to be. Its not like I do not wish to be an IAS officer, first and foremost thing being the fact that I'm lazy and may never end up cracking that exam and second, one life is not sufficient for everything I want to achieve. Some other things for which I may get kicked from everyone in my group is the fact that I am not a cricket fan, nor am I a football fan. I have no idea why, but the true fact is that once I used to play and enjoy watching cricket but all of sudden this match fixing issue came up, no not the one in which Sreesanth is involved, Mohd. Azharuddin and the likes back in those days. I felt as if I was a fool wasting my time watchng some matches which were fixed. In fact even though I do end up wasting a lot of time, much more than most average people I do not wish to waste time! And I'm sure many other guys nd girls had that realisation more than 15 years later, around a fortnight back, when Sreesanth dude got caught. I even heard some guys say that "This is my last IPL" though I am not sure if it is because Sachin Tendulkar said so. This reminds me of something Sachin Tendulkar: Reducing the number of athiests since 1989.

Lets now cut over to corporate life, well that is some other awesome thing that I'm entangled in. Should I describe it in detail right now? Nah, guess it can wait.

My interest in mobile phones has gone to another level. Developing some wierd random "kuch bhi" interests. Ya "kuch bhi" is a word I picked up from a couple of friends here in office. I'm not sure if I can properly describe it in english or not but I do use it at times. Coming back to mobiles, I guess it is the desire of owning a new high end smart phone that brought me to flipkart.com a couple of months back. But then from ym previous experience, as soon as I buy a latest phone I lose my interest in phones for some reason. I guess I do not want that which is why I'm of delaying that smart phone and as a result of this I spend almost one hour each day on FK.com surfing new models of phones. Friends take me as an authority on smart phones but the fact is that my knowledge is just limited to phones in FK.

I honestly have no clue how people sit and type for so long, I seem to fail miserably in this. Well anyway, taking a break for now. Was jobless in office for the entire first half of the first day this week. So might as well try and get something done now, and let me clarify, its not that I was wasting time, but the fact that as a chance of luck I was not assigned any work so far today. Am I lucky or not? Well, lets wait and see. WHY? Big question. Long story. I'l save it for later....

Joblessness continues...

Thanks to some poeple....

Back to blog......

I just had this blogpost published right now and checked the length of the post, somehow I'm not impressed. So thought I would revert it back to draft, think again and jot down some more words of wisdom before I publish. There are a lot of thoughts which are lingering in my mind at present, some of them are negetive. And for that very reason, I'd rather not jot it down now. I am one firm believer of the fact that people should keep bad things away and spread peace and love in the world so that the world is a better place to live in. But alas! That is just a dream. Not all people are alike. Never, no where close. And that exact thing is the cause of concern, a reason for disturbance everywhere. Ok I can cut this crap. Yes, this instant!

Ok so that was what I needed, a lunch break, and thanks to the fact that I left at around 2:30, then canteen was almost empty and I had to settle with 1 packet of Kurkure and 1 Maaza 10Rs packet. Both from the vending machine. One in my office and one in the office below. But I must say, having just these 2 items can leave you feeling very tired, especially given the fact that you haven't had anything "solid" since the last day evening. And thanks to my manager, who feels I should be left free for today, I'm jobless in office. One thing I realise these days is that, too much of anything is bad. Too much of work or too much of joblessness. These days I think I'm happier with the former. I wonder if this post is being longer than I expected. Lets see how long this joblessness goes.

Its just that I started writing this blog post for some reason and now I am continuing with this for some other reason. Maybe I should rename this and post it in another as "A Jobless Day at Office". Common too long, this post deserves to end here. Make way for the next post which is coming through! And you just got the post title.

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...
