Thoughts of an invisible guy in the visible world: March 2015

Friday, March 06, 2015. One Plus One: Black screen of death. Until last night I had only heard and experienced blue screen of death. The famous fatal error on your Windows OS. It all changed when my 3 month old OnePlus One. Went completely dark. Double tapping or pressing the power button didn't wakeup the display nor the glow on softkeys. However, the notification light was glowing and the phone had about 65% battery. Lo and behold what do I see? Went through the official forums. As you notice, there is...

Thoughts of an invisible guy in the visible world: ~ Interstellar ~
http://vevck.blogspot.com/2014/12/interstellar.html
Saturday, December 06, 2014. Watched the movie Interstellar last Friday and was spellbound. Such movies definitely triggers one's imagination of life outside our planet and inspires people to explore Space. 5-Dimensional world where communication happens through gravity. You can watch Time's interview of Christopher Nolan and Kip Thorne here. For those who of us who do not have time to read that book, Discovery has an episode on the same subject 'The Science of Interstellar' with narration from Mathew Mc...

Monday, April 20, 2015. TATA Sky Customer Care. If you are TATA Sky subscriber in India you must have seen their promos / teasers of the upcoming upgrade to their network. I happened to be one of the customers who suffered with the loss of channels - HD, news, regional. Registered a complaint on 4th April 2015. Eventually, the technician calls on 11th April. Goes by and he doesn't show up nor answers the phone. This is where things getting repetitive:. 2) Appraise them the situation. No show once again&#...

Thoughts of an invisible guy in the visible world: July 2014
http://vevck.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 31, 2014. Japanese traditional way of eating Sushi. I had my share of discomfort during my first visit to a Sushi restaurant in the US. Here is a video on how to eat Sushi the traditional way and the mannerism associated with it. The thing about Japanese is that most of their daily habits have some kind of ritual to be performed. The video might be hilarious, but is informative. Thursday, July 24, 2014. This documentary is nearly 3 years old, but very relevant even today. After watching it...

Thoughts of an invisible guy in the visible world: ~ Generalization is the problem ~
http://vevck.blogspot.com/2014/10/generalization-is-problem.html
Thursday, October 02, 2014. Generalization is the problem. Generalization is the problem. People more often than not make such statements. Watch this video where Reza Aslan takes on the Bill Maher and the studio anchors of CNN. Why can't media do their ground work and get their facts rights and not painting everyone with a same brush. The media's role is crucial in communicating facts rather than interpreting it and propagating an agenda. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Learning to be humane :).

Thursday, May 22, 2014. The drones are coming. Forget Robots, the Drones are coming. They are gonna take up a lot of different roles, just not delivery goods or disaster management or dropping bombs. They can also take your dog for a walk :). Yesterday a Mumbai based eatery delivered pizza using a drone. If thats not good then you should check out what the New York based videographer do with the drone. Do share if you have come across more interesting use-cases of drones. Friday, May 16, 2014. To get his...
