Expect all days of the week blocked

Well it all started with a small revolution called Mobile Monday, Bangalore. It was an initiative of some minds behind the mobile technology in Bangalore(Keshav, S R Raja, Rajan & Rajiv). It was actually a success.

The reason behind the success of the Mobile Monday has been its unique concept. The community meets every 3rd Monday of the month. They have a set agenda and people with passion. So much so that many communities in Bangalore are planning to adopt a similar approach. Like all good things he success of this has lead into a next step, which make use of Saturday. Now what rhymes best with Saturday, well one of thing is Startup. So here we have Startup Saturday. An interesting concept building momentum. What I expect next is the following, Testers Tuesday, Web Wednesday, UX Thursdays, FOSS Friday, Startup Saturday and finally Sleepy Sunday. Guys at least Sunday deserves a break :-)

Anyways I dont see this thing not materializing. For a very simple reason, the community is Bangalore is strong and growing. Each one of community has a lot of share and work with. Probably building this sort of a community is the first step towards making a Google, Yahoo and hopefully not MS :-P When people meet, they think twice as much. This is what will seed innovation and surely take the Indian IT to the next level.

[3rd November 2024] Interesting Things I Learnt This Week

1. Transforming CSV Files into Graphs with LLMs -  This is a step by step guide including code to transform csv files into graphs. There are prompts, python code and samples provided in it.  My Take : This is an excellent approach to streamlining data cleaning, a task that often consumes a significant portion of a data engineer's time. By leveraging the power of LLMs, we can potentially reduce this effort significantly. However, it's important to note that not all LLMs are equally effective for this purpose. Fine-tuning LLMs specifically for data cleaning tasks could further enhance their capabilities. I'm eager to learn more about this promising technique and its potential applications. Do let me know if have something interesting to share.   2. SOFA Start Often F*** Achievements - The SOFA principle advocates for starting numerous projects and finishing few. This approach prioritizes gaining diverse experiences and skills over completion. By frequently initiating new en

My Best Cell Phone

I was just wondering at so many cell phones available out in the market. Though I still use Nokia 1100, but that does not stop me imagining the best cell phone for me. After a lot of thoughts on it I have come up with my own specification. So here it goes. Good external speakers. Crystal clear sound. And the sound should be loud enough that removes the need for extra addon speakers at any time. The mic should be such that it can cut off all the noise in the background(High tech but I think its possible) A good camera, around 4Mega pixel one. Also capable of recording movies in DVD Quality. Storage capacity of 100GB. Use any means possible. I hardly care. Should be small in size...Not any bigger than my Nokia 1100 right now. Screen resolution of some 16million colours at least. Should have a screen that is big enough almost as big as the whole phone and. Better if its extensible by opening the panel outwards. Keypad with keys like a normal keyboard unlike usual phones. Ability to intro

Top reasons why Tata Elxsi should be blacklisted

Well that a provoking first line, but then thats exactly what I have to say about this company. Tata Elxsi should be blacklisted, but wait a minute by whom? Well the software developers fraternity. Its a blood sucking corporation which is right documented in the documentary The Corporation . Ok why am I telling this after almost one year of leaving it. Well when the fact is that I have nothing to do with it. I have already let out my personal experience here , here and here . Well it was not just me as its obvious from the comments but then it was general feeling of my friends there. Well all I can talk about is friends because I dont know how each and every employee of Tata Elxsi felt. Anyways heres one more story about the kind of harassment and employee of Tata Elxsi might have to suffer . Though I had read it earlier but am blogging now about solely because I wanted to confirm the news being true. And sadly it is true. An employee was indeed made to resign. And indeed its legally
