  • In any field, IS imagination is more important than knowledge.......?

    Well i am working on my research for a pretty long time and have been encountering some mind boggling facts .. and these arent just facts but also are arise a major question about ethics of research and engineering . will only knowledge only suffice for doing all the research in the world or u need a lot more than it takes. what about the god gifted capabilities of ur type of species liike basic instincts , imagination , moral judgement., creativity .. etc
    Its the desire which leads to innovation and major break throughs in the field of science.. the human creativity which makes us far more superior than any other species in the world and also kind of puts a dead end of evolution .. i guess there arent any other species evolving after us (atleast not naturally , but genetically sounds plausible ). Confining oneself to knowledge will only bestow you to excelling the particular field .. but what if someone wants to go beyond it, push its limitations . well here is the place which requires enormous amout of creativity.. which i think is a lot god gifted and is divine in itself (well even gods creativty would have been beyound our mundane senses .. and thats the reason we are here ).

    i have been to countless no of workshops which enlightens ones cyloptic point of view towards science and provides a panoroma of whole world , it gives us the confidence that even quixotic ideas which we often get in our daylight can be achievable.but the question again arises that after putting enormous amount of hardwork in excelling the field and making your self capable of solving all kinds of conundrums .. is your creativity waning ..?

    well i would like to share my experience about wat i have been bugging you all long

    i was in a planetorium and attending seminars in natural science .. wells its more about verifying the facts put forwards but Sir Isaac Newton himself.. after a stressfull 3 hour lecture and problem solving tasks .. we were indirectly asked to divide a cirlce into 4 parts (which was a part of a problem) and trust me no one in the room apart from my lectures 8 year daughter could solve it. well at that moment the stuff looked so abstruse that i couldnt have a panaromic view of the problem and all in the rooom were perplexed (ofcourse not the professor who gave the problem ) .. and after all the mind juggling .. the kid comes and draws 2 diameters which perfectly divides the circle in 4 parts........

    well even thought its basic math and very facile concept.. which sometimes people forget.. the 8 year kid did made me think about the ethic of research and did enlighten me with the fact that some basic things in life are not to be forgotten....

    i can never comprehend , why do people do such things . Well u might be able to improve ur computer skills but ultimately its a waste of time and besides , no one in their right mind will do such a thing.so folks be wary of such fraud mails and dont be foolish enough to actually believe it.

  • The Watchmakers... From Switzerland

    dufour_carte_ajust

    Well here is the video which i am embedding (giving link , since the owner doesnt want this to be embedded , so sad.....)   in this post. and its all about the watch makers in switzerland.
    Did we ever ponder on how actually our watch (mostly wrist) is designed and manifactured. Well atleast its not done in the conventional way like there is some huge factory and some automated machines do the job where everything is programmed.
    Watch making is an art , it involves true creativity (in classical sense , unfortunately the word is been derogated nowadays) . well  u need clinical precsion to fit in those tiny little elements  together and make it work.
    In this video the famous and preemiment watch maker Phillpe Dufour

    from switzerland is featured and he shares his experience about watch making.i hope you guys like it.

  • Oracle Acquires Sun Microsystem....... IS It the end of open Source.........?

    Well here is the big news pals.... Oracle acquires Sun Micro systems
    for 7.4 billion dollars. Well as far as i know IBM was a strong contender in buying the open source giant , but all of a sudden i see the database monstrous company has acquired it.
    Well i guess its an auspicious start for oracle in the field of server and storage markets .. and will become much more stronger and competitive to its rival companies HP and IBM.

    well oracle which uses open solaris as a leading platform for their database development . and now with acquisition of sun oracle can optimize their database performance and make it much more worthfull....

    But the bottom line is wat about the open source programmers in the world , the people who completely rely on sun microsystems which caters their need and helps in upliftment of opensource programming .will oracle still act in the same conventional way and promote open source or it will completely focus on its marketing and business strategies..?

    Well when linus tolvard started the open source agenda and largely worked on it .. many people had followed his obligations and made it incumbent for themselves even though the part at the movement was pretty much obscure and now when the open source is emerging as a threat to these software companies ... well they are trying a different ways to just stop it i guesss......

  • my ping box..................

    just made a ping box and trying out... seems like its pretty good.. ah.

  • Recession..................

    well as we all(hopefully) know about the whole recession break out .... i just thought of writing a poem about it and i hope you guys enjoy it..

    Recession

    The disturbance that the world creates
    When everything in ur life goes great
    It makes you feel upside down
    And smiles in ur face turn into frown

    When the salad days are getting numbered,
    The winning times are going slumbered
    The fear of loosing is faintly discovered :yawn:
    And all the adages are remembered

    When things change as fast as light
    And problems come in a flight
    My goals and thoughts have a dogfight :roll:
    Even in the midnight

    I want to shut the world from here
    And there is nothing I want to hear
    I have pushed the boundaries of depression
    Even in this recession

    All I want is a miracle
    Which will get me away from this debacle
    And help me to reach pinnacle :wave:

  • Mothers Day...................!

    Well today on the eve of mothers day... i thought of wishing my mother by reciting my own composed poem... although i am naive in the field of poem writing .. i personnaly feel that i have done a good job (hopefully)...... i would be glad if you guys could have a glance and give me feedback.....

    Mother

    When you’re looking down, with a scorn
    Even the moons cycloptic eye is, blinking with adorn
    Nothing in the world seems right
    When ur mother is not beside

    The feeling of completeness is imperceptible
    I could wander all over the continent
    Receive all the awards and become preeminent
    But still my heart would be with my mother, which is very immanent

    This unconditional love is boundless
    Where the treasure in her eyes is no big surprise
    She is the beacon of light, even in the darkest nights
    When the dark and difficult times, arise

    When the world is in its tyranny noise
    She prays for the torrent to end, n lets the negativity flow around the river bend
    No matter how things r worst
    She draws the power from your deepest folds of ur soul
    And manifest for you own goal

    Oh Lord, you have done ur greatest creation
    Even in this nasty world of hatred
    U have made love so pervasive, and sacred

  • Windows Vista login

    Well when i mean the word

    HACK
    it meaning is taken in the classical sense . well i blame the media to actually turn the meaning the word to something very different and diabolical. Well technically hacker is a person who understand the computer more than a mediocre computer techie.
    the intentions are very different than what people think . well a cracker is the one who enter the systems and messes with it .but hackers just figure out the loop hole and mention it to the responsible person to fix it.

    Well recently my cousin had forgotten the user login password and could enter the system at all , no matter whatever she did.then i get a call at 2am in the morning saying that the systems is locked and rahul u gotta do something about it.well i was completely freaked out that time and somehow managed to get her residence at that moment . Well there way only two ways to enter the system ,

    1. You cram very very very very Hard to remember the password , n eventually u figure it out.
    2. You make an attempt to hack into the system and rectify it.

    Well the option one was completely unreliable , since i had no other choice i had to get to the option two as quickly as i can.

    well there is a toolkit called as trinity resce kit

    well i am not going into the technical details of how it works , but all i did is to download the image file (in my laptop ) and burned that image into the disk.
    Well since it was a bootable disk , all i had to do was boot the cd while computer was loading .

    the kit will take some time to load u gotto be patient .
    u will get a prompt all u will have to write is "winpass" (ofcourse without quotes)
    t will show up all the windows installations
    press enter

    now it will show up all the account properties and all .
    well you dont need to bother about it

    finally u will get this prompt of

    enter the new password
    "y" to confirm
    ok password changed

    to change other users password
    winpass -u "username"

    now type reboot and restart your computer(without your cd).

    well its very hard to believe at the first place that , with these few steps u could actually change the windows password.
    well the password was changed and i got all the kudos i deserved....... heheheheh

    well as usual i was there to save the day.....
