2 words that can change the world you Live(a possibility) :- “Thank You”

Hey,

Pretty long time . But m back . This blog on the general issue.(not technical blog for a change)

From past few dayz I have been thinking I want to give back something to society, but what?

I choose Love and harmony among the following problems my country or the world I am leaving is facing like Corruption, Terrorism,  Poverty, blab la blab la bla….(The list is never endin.)

WE CALL OURSELVES RESPONSIBLE CITIZENS of India (the educated high-flying ones ). We, ok not we .. I.. AS A Human Being… will always keep blaming the politicians, terrorists, people blab la bla.. (LIKE WHT I AM DOIN NOW).

Ok I am not going to do that.

The only Diff is ACTION . (WE TALK we talk we talk we talk.. but No action.. So no result. So life goes on .. In the end u wil DIE.. (I WILL DIE. And every1 will.)… ). Some people wil GIVE UP.. And ACCEPT it.. And ye toh aisa hei hota hai… and that’s it. THE PROBLEM STAYS A PROBLEM.

ALL THIS what going in the mind.

I thought so how can I bring love and harmony around the society.

By simply acknowledging people. OR simply Saying “Thank You.”

Its simple. I met around say 30-50 people in a day. He/She may be your colleagues, Auto Wala, Conductor, Ticket giver, Shopkeepers, the people who sells eatables, blab la bla..

Just acknowledge the work they have done. Or I else I wil say atleast Thank You.

(Shopkeeper gives wht he is expected to do. Ok he did. Right? So just acknowledge.

Same is the case with Auto wala . whever I wanted to go, he did it. So just acknowledge)

Its work on simple theory.

TO CHANGE THE WORLD, CHANGE YOURSELF

See I will be working in Company in few dayz. I did work what I am expected to do. If your boss acknowledge mine work. Just think how happy I would feel the rest of day.

Now since I am happy for rest of the day, I will treat people who I meet that day (or may be next few dayz) with happiness, smile, warmly. The people in turn will spread the happiness in their life(the people they meet). Maybe that Auto Wala, Conductor, Ticket giver, Shopkeepers (imagine the number of people they meet) and (imagine if their mood is very receptive, happy, warm ) they would be treating the same way the people they meet. And this goes on and on.

I don’t know if the person who reading this is inspired or indifference to what I am saying.

Yea, its obvious too . Maybe you wil feel like :- Kya paka raha hai, Somal. U gone mad. Bla bla.

(I just read a book which said :- Gandhiji, Albert Einstein, Galileo, others did something which was not acceptable to the world at instance. But later people started to following it. )

I don’t care. Bcoz I believe this gonna work. I believe there would be atleast 1 person who might have got himself inspired and they in turn inspire other people.

Btw, I was one inspired from beggar. I gave him 1-2 Rs. The smile in his face,he was the one who said “Thank you”, which actually made be very satisfied and happy and the way I reacted that whole day with people around .

THANK YOU. For wasting ur time reading this article.

Seriously Thank You.

“If people disregard the great works of the past, it is because these works no longer answer the needs of the present.”

GRE Issue Essay practice

From childhood we have been made to believe “Old is Gold”. But as we attain adulthood we start believing it’s not anymore. You may be in any field, but if you want to survive today you need to give less importance to the great works of the past.

Patriotic people like Mahatma Gandhi, Adolf Hitler are still respected for the work they have done for their country. The way they opted to bring justice to their country is obviously no answer to current problems faced by their country. But movies like Lage Raho Munna Bhai and others have shown what changes in can bring in people lives if even few basic principles of such great personalities are accustomed to daily life of common people.

It’s a normal human tendency to circumspect the past so as not to commit the same mistakes again and to get better as far as progress in concerned which is undoubtedly true with respect to any field in the world. For instance, Indian democratic world lead by Mrs. Sonia Gandhi and Mr. Man Mohan Singh is actually a great example to assent to the topic. These great leaders actually have no apathy to the exuberant courtesies they have endowed on Indian people over the years. In fact, they never look back because the past techniques which would have worked at that time is surely no longer satisfactorily today even to bring the same success rate. If they still stick to the old degraded methods to run the country, it is surely going to hamper the progress of the country.

Also, same is true when it comes to technological world. The way we used to produce nuclear energy or electricity 10 years back has actually became outmoded in present times. The world can’t still live on those outmoded methods due to ever increasing needs of common people in each corner of the world. Innovation in technological world does have partly success when it disregards previous great works. Mr. Mark Zukerburg brought Facebook to the world maybe because somewhere in his heart for sure, he was not satisfied with the internet world during the time Facebook came into existence.

I believe not satisfied is the euphemism tone for having disregard of the great works of the past.  Adding, every human being in the world would have been at his peak atleast once in his educational years. If a person at an age of say 30-35 years, still depends on the glory of his/her 10th and 12th life, that’s logically insane. It’s not that person should not respect whatever glory was achieved in past, but still dependence on that is stupidity.

So I believe when we disregard the great works of the past, it means that we are and should move on with time. Old glories should be dealt with respect but not as something on which we still depend on to excel in life.

 

To CEO’s of Sun Microsystems & Microsoft,

The other day I was having an argument with one of my friend, why we, as developers, have to face the difficulty in choosing the programming platform to expertise in. Presently, the programming world is dichotomized into 2 parts: – .NET (by Microsoft) and Java (by Sun Microsystems).  My friend was persistently supporting the thought of having just single programing language/platform. This has definitely been controversial topic since many years and it’s surely going to prevail till we don’t find anything that can substitute a computer.

Microsoft is known for initially innovating eulogistic products and then completely trying to dominate where their strength lies at. That’s what they have been doing lately with .NET.  On the other side, Sun Microsystem’s Java undoubtedly free open source platform independent has notably the greatest innovation which has magnificently transformed the IT world to what it is currently!!

Initially I was arguing as in there are 100’s of different platforms and languages. Just getting your basics strong, any programming language can be expertise and that’s the actual key. It’s true that every platform/language/product has its own pros and cons. I am just suggesting that why can’t you guys make one universal programming language? Eventually, this will be easily grasped by anyone in any part of the world just as for example English is being made the universal medium of communication around the globe in not just corporate world. Looking at the brighter side, wouldn’t it would be more beneficial when just one company will be working to develop applications instead of 2 companies wasting twice the time developing the same applications/products? And obviously for us (developers), we wouldn’t be wasting our efforts in learning/working on hundreds of different languages/platforms.

From customer’s point of view, the range, quality, refinement of products/applications will be from extravagantly large numbers. This will be possible due to that extra time that will be benefited by the developers .It won’t be such a bad move thinking to collaborate or thinking to merge to result into say maybe “Micro-Suns”. You never know this may result to the ultimate revolution of IT industry throughout the world and may change radically the present world. Calculated risk is worth taking.

I believe I have given you a decent gist of pros, maybe pondering on the concerned subject is not completely worthless.

TIPS ON PLACEMENT/INTERVIEW PROCESS

Hey!! hiieee

For the next 10-15 mins or so, I will be sharing as much as information about various things about the placement procedure for a company which visited our campus. I wished my juniors to be well acquainted with the process and some background about the company beforehand which actually can actually make a lot of difference on D-day.  I actually don’t want my experience in giving Aptitude’s, interviews in hell lot of companies to get wasted.

PLEASE NOTE :-

All The NOS written below. +-5% error expected .maaf karo utna toh

And Everythin is written with respect to majority of people (Not 5-10 people in particular)

Eg. Whn I say Deliotte prefers people with good communication skills that doesn’t mean Tech people have not been hired by them. I am telling with what majority people had in common

IMP :- Deliotte. most of people who got selected were having very decent communications skills…. So if you think you are not good at Tech …and have decent communication skills…. The answer is Deliotte.  Tech people with good talking skills had an added advantage.

Next was the tech interview- important domains covered were databases, C++/java programming and logical questions and situations(they emphasized the fact that they were looking for good reasoning and analytical skills above anything else) for comps/IT students. Project based questions and anything mentioned in the resume could be asked. HR interview focused on reasoning skills again, and any interesting characteristic of the candidate mentioned by him/her or stated in the resume.
