Silent

"You see a lot more when people don't see you."

Hmmm before anyone claims this quote is mine......I took this from Kaavya Viswanathan's (de-)famous book "How Opal Mehta got Kissed, got wild and Got life?". Now I dint write the title properly I think. Anyways, you must have already got which book I am talking about. It was there on every news channel for it being plagiarized.

Whatever!! The thing I wanted to reflect upon was not this info about the other or the story. But I believe this line just could clearly depict what I meant, what I do and what I observe happening.

When I am buzzing with energy and in excited state, when i talk a lot ...every-time like this I find a lot of friends. But I hardly notice what's there real intention or what's there real attitude towards me or anyone.

When I am silent, I have less people talking to me, less people watch me, less no. of people take concern of what I am doing. Then I watch and observe others. Then you can really observe true character of your so called friend or just any person. It's not a spy story..but it just happens so in real life and works for just anyone.

People act to act differently when they are noticed. But when they do not know that they are being noticed they are their true-self. And when a person din't see you observing him/her he will just act his original and you can understand what he/she is.

Data from Government Portals

In last some months I happened to see the vast amount of data and statistics available in our govt. portals. I was always surprised at the amount the data available to public in western countries. Cities like NewYork provide charts on various topics available to people. They used a business intelligence tool (OBIEE) I work on for providing many useful graphs too. (No I did not not work on that project) Check the NewYork CPR (City Wide Performance Reporting) here: http://www.nyc.gov/html/ops/cpr/html/home/home.shtml Even UN made its database available to public for along time and has been updating the way people can access it. ( http://unstats.un.org/unsd/cdb/ updated to http://data.un.org/ ) One can see numerous infographics made out of these by people e.g: http://projects.flowingdata.com/state-of-the-world/ http://www.npr.org/news/graphics/2009/apr/electric-grid/ http://www.candychang.com/desk/2008/11/12/vendor-power/ Now the best news of theme all is this: http://googleblog.blogspot...

Cybercoolies and IT super-power : Myth resolved

Cybercoolies and...... as a preface plz go thru this blog first.. http://bakerstreetirregulars.blogspot.com/ Though it's rude, it's truth.Now things apart.....u can easily think of this. Why are we given these IT projects, try to understand...how it all works? It's not that difficult. Now Us and many other development countries have a large pool of talent which is gud . Still companies ther outsource ther project to countries like India. Reason is the talent they have is costly...... though they have masters of technology among them, they do and will outsource their projects. Mostly something laborious and hectic is given, to cut the cost their finance department takes the decision over to outsource. Now their tech guy ther is guru of technology and can do all their project but he will demand a lot of dollars...now he will just administer and do the key parts and remaining are outsourced..so he is paid less....gud for the company. Then the company outsource to a IT services...

Reviewing: Numbercaste

Shenoy a great fan of and a regular columnist disseminating information on the sci-fi genre, recommended this book ' Numbercaste ' to me. His reasoning was simple, I am a data scientist and this science fiction book is based on that. Interesting premise for sure. And was he right, I could connect to the story so easily and got hooked. The author Yudhanjaya Wijeratne is a big data researcher himself. Thus, the premise is closer home for him. He knows the technological advances and the research that has been going on. He knows about the next barriers to be broken. As the author so humbly acknowledges he just put together things that are already happening around us and extrapolated them to come up with this beautiful book. *** Possible Spoilers ahead *** Key topics of interest to a technologist in this book are exoskeletons, universal identity management based on blockchain to mitigate migration crises, and social and credit scoring system taken to extreme as pro...
