My Thoughts

It wasn't until I walked in at 9AM, I came to know that it was a startup. Manoj, who was our super senior at Mission R&D, came forth and introduced himself. He enquired about our interests. During the discussion, we told that we did not have our breakfast. He then gave us about twenty minutes to have it. After we're done with the it and came back to the office, they asked us to take our laptops out. That is when it began. We were all given a problem. Just one problem and forty minutes of time to solve it. The problem statement goes like this. Given a number, n representing the number of bits, find the number of the possible binary strings of length n, such that there are no consecutive ones. At Mission R&D, they expect us to write our own test cases and not rely on online platforms. A small logic struck my mind and I had a lead. However, I wrote the brute force code and put it safe incase things don't work out. I started solving it on paper and after

A couple of days ago, I re-posted a video on Facebook. The video showed a few number of methods on how electricity can be generated using simple magnets and similar tricks. Yesterday, a friend of mine messaged me on Facebook texting that the video is misleading and it has fake tricks that do not work. The conversation went on for about five minutes before he realised. The video was originally posted by  Mehdi Sadaghdar , an YouTube vlogger who posts electrical experiments' videos. That video was re-posted by UNILAD Tech page. In the beginning he clearly mentions that we have to watch this till the end to be able to make a solid conclusion. After about half the time in the video, he reveals the secrets behind all the tricks that he has done in the video. He wanted to create awareness among us so that we do not believe and share such fake tricks among ourselves. This entire generation has lost the habit of reading. At least most of us have lost it. Then we shifted to vi

It is well known that nails, not only help your fingertips look better but they are also functional. They help in holding things by keeping our fingertips strong enough without bending. Some people keep their nails well trimmed. Girls might like to grow it long and apply nail polish. However, if you ever happened to notice mine, which very few you might have, you'll find that they're rather ugly. When muscle isn't supported properly by bones, it looks bad and doesn't function as it should. The same happens with my fingertips. It cut my nails, way too short. The finger muscles on the palm side, grow longer than the nails and cover the front of my nails, sometimes. So, I have muscle on the tip of my finger, rather than nails. No body wants to look ugly, be it face or fingertips, unless there is a gain. Apple's latest butterfly keyboards have received criticism from fans around the world for being too shallow. Users were not able to know whether they pres

While most people believe that you need to be very good at the language, it isn't true. If you have ever seen Elon Musk's keynotes, you will find that he stammers a lot, yet people do not complain. Instead the audience will understand and respond accordingly. The same happens with me, I stammer sometimes when I speak on the stage and find myself at loss of words. But when I step down after my seminar people say that I did great up there. Then I understood why. Unless it's your english class where you are assessed or Toastmaster's club event where your "Ah's" are counted, its okay not to deliver a fluidic speech. You can get to it with experience. What matters is  the content. You can speak so well that people can be immersed in what you are trying to convey and respond to you.  The content, however, cannot be something that is regular. As students or professionals, we all know how boring is a power point presentation and gets exponentially ba

I am someone who is comfortable with myself. I'm pretty habituated to doing things myself except for few. I love walking, when it is not in a hurry. So, one evening when I was in Intermediate, my college got over at 5 PM when it was supposed to be at 8 PM. Instead of going home, I wanted to explore the downtown's roads and get to know it. I love observing things and observing these rich people's lifestyle didn't seem any different. I borrowed earphones from my friend, set my playlist, tightened my backpack and started the trek in the city. I never went across the VIP road. There seemed to be a big apartment coming up and it was in its construction phase. I had loads of time so I took the long route. Walked south by two blocks and turned east. Crossed the road and entered into the colony. Most of the houses were individual houses that would cost crores as of now. I kind off liked it when I saw this million dollar house with a Maruthi 800 car. My dad i

Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla sleeps at 1 AM, but still finds time to read and hit the gym. M S Dhoni is one of the most loved Cricket players in India also plays football. Almost every successful person isn't good at only the thing we know but at some other things too. This might seem strange to normal ones because most of us don't even strive to be successful what we are right now. But why multiple things? In order to do anything to its best, you need to commit yourself to it. It might be coding, grades or a startup. Once you commit yourself and you start working, no matter what you do, eat, sleep, drive, play, its the only thing that you will be thinking. You want to switch to do it at the very moment itself. But, we are humans and we cannot keep doing the same thing constantly, no matter how much you love it. You would probably hate to gossip either. It is in these situations that you want to something else. This 'something else' is either y
