War Tornl!

On a War-torn Path, with every step, the senses shiver,
    The only souvenirs are a few broken arrows and an empty quiver.
The amber dusk, the eternal still
    the encroaching darkness, the torpid spirits to till!

Why Socialist Government Selected by Democratic process in India is not a good Idea?

Democracy finds its origins in Socratic school of thought which was later documented by Plato in the well-known artifact - The Republic. The Socratic Utopian society was based on partial democracy. Socrates valued the immense power that the veto in a choice of government beholds. However, as per many accounts, he wanted this veto power to lie more in hands of intellectually blessed minds, rather than all commoners. He believed that such important choices should be in hands of well-informed minds or lest the Democracy will fail. Though the way we see Democracy today -in principle, it has now a very strong underpinning of the right to social equality(irrespective of intellect or capability). In fact it can be said to be the extension of the idea of social equality in the dimension of Politics and National administration.  From an ideological spectrum standpoint, democracy can be said to be a more center left. When Idea of Social egalitarianism is stretched to the extreme right, i...

Jury on AI is still out!

The Jury on the subject of treacherous nature of AI is still out. However, if we observe our own evolution - it may help us identify the critical point of inflexion between  AI being productive and it being inimical. To begin with we were innately better evolved than all other species just due to one capability - "thinking". We then gradually developed skills to communicate amongst each other and there on think for the community and that's how we have reached, where we have. Now in the technology landscape, with  IoT - we are giving machines a capability to communicate with us. In near future, with AI we plan to give them self learning and subsequently collaboration capabilities. Drawing parallels between human and machine evolution journeys, I believe, until a significant foreseeable future - AI & Self learning will be very beneficial in terms of enhancing productivity, reliability and reducing costs. Self learning Machines interacting with humans is...

Trip to virgin lands......Somaliland.......(May 16,2011)

May 16, 2011 at 8:51pm The real journey began after 6 hours after leaving home, when we left terminal 1 of Dubai Airport to reach Terminal 2. It took us 30 minutes to figure out the way to the place where we could exit terminal 1. One of team members supposedly our" lost professor” literally got lost and we requested airport authorities to make announcement which they refused and made faces at us saying  at how could a 40 year Man loose himself on a airport. Any ways we got reunited and exited the Terminal 1. From Airbus 345 to a super huge taxi to 14 ft by 12 ft lift suddenly for the first time in our trip we came across this 20 seater bus worst than the one which is used for metro drops in Delhi. We still went on and driver after getting that minivan full unloaded us at terminal 1.which seemed so familiar as it was exactly like terminal 1 of Delhi airport something like 10 years back. We were supposed to wait for nearly 7-8 hours and waiting lounge was carefully desi...
