Simple alone is a huge feature that's often vastly overlooked.

When you walk into a high-end restaurant, you really don't get a whole lot of choice. Usually, the hallmark of a high-end restaurant is the chef's menu. The chef prepared courses of a dinner in advance where he made all the choices. You eat there because you trust the chef's judgment and want his taste. And this way I think you'll end up with a much tastier meal in the end.

What DHH says:

Nobody would say, "I want to make complex software." But they do say things that amount to the same thing. "I want my software to have tons of features. I want my software to have endless flexibility." Well, all these things are in essence saying, "I want complex software." We're willing to take a stand for simplicity in software. We're willing to say, "You aren't going to get all the features you think you might need some day, you're just going to have the basics executed beautifully.

There's so much software out there that's just endlessly complex, that has too many features, that has too much flexibility, and it ends up not being used because users can't relate to it; they can't get into it. It feels too complex. It feels intimidating when what they really need is just a small subset of what they're given.

Let not your heart be troubled

I thought of sharing this with you all, who knows you might be searching this at this moment -

Are there situations in life that are beyond your control? I have been through so many of those situations and today as I write this I’m in one of those situations again. As I started this day with the Word of God, the first words that He showed me were, “Let not you heart be troubled.” Even before I made a decision for myself, He already gave comfort to my heart and reminded me that He is in control. An extraordinary nurse that served patients for more than twenty years, but wasn’t well compensated, was asked by one of the doctors she worked with, “Why don’t you make them pay you more?" He added, "You ought to have at least a little more. God knows you’re worth it.” There was a short pause and the nurse smiled and responded, “Doctor, if God knows I’m worth it, that’s all that matters!” The Bible says promotion comes from the Lord. Just be patient, because some situations are beyond your control. God knows what you are going through. Remember, He is a just God.

I Love My Family

Morning ... I Was going through the Google employee blogs with the intention to find something new something different....Eventualy I came across the blog of Alma Whitten and I found something different there... There is a section in the left bottom corner of her blog, something like -

Family

My husband, Andrew Willmott.

Stories and history: The Melting Pot.

I follwed "The Melting Pot." and I ended up in an amazing new world ... Where she is saying "My great-grandparents lived in Agrigento, Campania, Missouri, and Mississippi. This site tells their stories and those of their families. Many living family members have contributed photos, documents, and memories to these pages, so this site is their labor of love as well as mine."

Isn't it an amazing IDEA to brought toghether all your love and memories for your family? I really liked it. Thanks a lot Alma !!!

An evil influence

Have you ever stolen someone else’s thoughts or ideas and had pretended to show them as your own. It’s very usual, we all do it one and the other day in our life, and we are programmed to exhibit our fake intelligence by doing it that way.

But doing this over some extent, with intention of humiliating someone in front of others, just to falsely prove yourself superior is really malefic.

Read this…

It starts something like this, a group of friends (boys and girls) sitting in a Harvard Bar (a hangout place for Harvard geniuses) …Will (Matt Damon) is hero, he is working as a floor cleaner at MIT, he is blessed with immense mathematical intelligence, though he is doing floor cleaner’s job because he feels that there’s honor in doing whatever you like. And Chucky (Will’s friend in reel life) and Ben Affleck in real life is a guy who works at mines but at this moment he wants to flirt with girls, so he starts conversation with the girls. The movie is Good Will Hunting…

Chucky: Oh, Hello
Girls: Oh, Hello

Chucky: hi, how are ya?
Girls: fine.

Chucky: so, do you ladies come here often?
Girls: huh…

Chucky: Do I come here? I come here a bit. I’m here you know by time to time. Do you go school here?
Girls: Yep

Chucky: Yeah, That’s it. I think I had a class with you.
Girls: Oh yeah, what class?
Chucky: History
One from the group a girl named Skyler ( heroine): May be…

Chucky: Yes, I think that’s what it was. You don’t necessarily and may not remember me, you know I like it here. It doesn’t mean cause I go here I’m genius, I am very smart

Someone (a boy): Hey
Chucky: Hey, hows it goin? How are ya?

Someone: Good, how ya doin? What class did you say that was?
Together Girls and Chucky: Hostory

Someone: Yeah, just history, It must have been a survey class then .
Chucky: yeah, it was surveys.

Someone: Right
Chucky: You should check it out, it’s a good course. It’d be a good class.

Someone: How would you like that course?
Chucky: You know frankly, I found that class, you know rather elementary

Someone: elementary, you know I don’t doubt that it was yeah. I uh. I remember that class it was um it was just between recess and lunch.

Girls (Syler): Clark why don’t you go away?
(I think Skyler hated that nerd)

Someone (clark) to Skyler: Why don’t you relax?
Skyler: Why don’t you go away?
Someone (Clark): I am just havin fun with my new friend

Chucky: Are we gonna have a problem?
Someone (Clark): No No. There’s no problem here. I was just hoping you might give me some insight into the evolution of the market economies in the southern colonies. My contention is that prior to the revolutionary war, the economic modalities --- especially in the southern colonies could mostly be characterized as – agrarian pre-capitalist.

(Looking that guy harassing his friend Will (Matt Damon) chips in…)
Will: Let me tell you something, off course that’s your contention you are a first year grad student
You just got finished reading some Mexican historian Pete garrison. Probably you’re gonna be convinced of that till next month when you get to James Lemon. Then you’ve gonna be talking about how the economies of Virginia and Pennsylvania were entrepreneurial and capitalist way back in 1740. That gonna last until next year. Then you gonna be in here regurgitating Gordon wood talking about you know the pre evolutionary utopia and the capital forming effects of military mobilization.

Clark [Scoffs]: Well, as a matter of fact I know because Wood drastically underestimated the impact of …
Will: Wood drastically underestimated the impact of social distinction predicated upon wealth especially inherited wealth. You got that from Vicker’s work in Essex county page 98, right? I read that too.
Were you gonna plagiarize the whole thing for us?
Do you have any thoughts of your own on this matter? or is that your thing, you come into a bar you read some obscure passage, then pretend pawn it off as your own idea, just to impress some girls? Embarrass my friend?

See the sad thing about a guy like you is, in 50 years you’re gonna start doin some thinking on your own. You’re gonna come up with the fact that there are two certainties in life
One: Don’t do that and
Two: You dropped $150 grand on f**kin education, which you could have got for $1.50 in late charges at the public library.

Clark: yeah, but I will have a degree and you’ll be serving my kids fries at a drive through on our way to a skiing trip.
Will( smiles): May be, but at least I won’t be unoriginal. If you have a problem with that we could step outside, we could figure it out.

Someone (Clark): No man, there’s no problem its cool.
Will: cool.

Some people have very bad habit of showing others inferior to them by showing their fake intelligence, it’s pathetic. In above conversation, Will have tried to give concrete answers to those suckers.

Off course being unoriginal unnecessarily is probably like blowing away your soul out of your body. Stop being intentionally or unknowingly outlawed.

Gosh… its 12:53 am. It took me 32 minutes to copy the conversation. But is it worth? Yeah, at least I think so…

I have much more to bore you on this subject but I wont do that..

Its 12:59 am, signing off, Ta da da…

Plethora of Emotions

(Sunday, May 08, 2009)


How it feels like writing a diary? Just imagine…after passing many golden decades of the journey called life, after experiencing lots of up and downs, after being into lots of relations, after feeling lots of love and oomph, after passing through lots of traumas and tragedies, one day you are alone and remembering your old days, and you took out your diary, you traverse through its pages recaping your life, living it again entirely in just few seconds … isn’t it amazing?

The only time I have been impressed or get motivated to write diary is when I got the chance to see an Oscar winner movie named “The last Samurai” (dubbed in Hindi). Let me remember, the screen play was something like...

Tom Cruise, An army captain who had fought many battles was abandon by the Samurai cabillah and they have just not killed him because they wanted to learn the war strategies from the experiences of his life which he had carved into his diary. Tom was so alone and had just recovered from the wounds of samurai swords... He was habitual to write his diary, in this movie they have tried to loud the inner voice of a captain as and when he was feeling like writing into his diary in the background of the screen play…One beautiful, lively serene morning, He was wandering in the woods exploring the place and murmuring to himself...

1876, Din nahi janta , mahina nahi janta , mein in anokhe logo ke beech reh rah huun, mein unka bandi huun aur mein bhag bhi nahi sakta, muje sab yaha nazar andazz kartein hai aur aise pesh aatein hai jaise mein koi raah chalta kutta huun ya bin bulaya mehman…

Sab tamiz se baat kartein hai, haskar adab se juktein hai, par is adab ke niche mein unke dabe hue jazbaat dekh sakta huun…

Ek ajeeb si kashish hain in logo mein, subah ki paheli kiran se hi woh apne kaam mein ji jaan se lag jaatein hai, maine kabhi itna anushashan nahi dekha, mein heran huun yeh jankar ki samurai shabd ka matlab hota hai seva karna…

Sardioka Mausan 1877, Ek Samurai hone ka matlab mein Hamesha Dhundhta tha, Kuchh usulo ke liye khud ko kurban karna, dimag ki sthirta ko pana, ya talvar baji mein mahir banana…”

Meri zindgai mein aisa paheli baar hua ki mein kisi ek jagah itne dino tak raha, yaha aisa bahut kuchh hai jo mein kabhi samaj nahi paunga, mein kabhi church janewalo mein se nahi raha, lekin jung mein jo kuchh dekha uske baad lagtaa hai ki aakhri ishwar ka maksad kya hai. Par Yaha kuchh to khas hai, kuchh adhyatmik hai is jagah mein halaki yeh mere liye hamesha raaz rahega, par mein in shaktiyo ko samazana chahta hunn, mein bas itna janta huun ki saalo baad mein yaha chain ki neend so paya huun…

Isn’t it a nicely said? Writing diary, does it mean capturing smallest possible things those are happening in your life…Nopes I don’t think so, in my opinion diary is a nice articulation of someone’s feelings…

So finally, I thought of serializing the upshots of my life…Getting infected by the Internet and an being an IT engineer, I chose to digitalize it by putting it on my blog…

Now a title, for this “To be continued” post, I wanted something that can represent inner me, I searched, I thought for it for few days and finally I have zeroed on “Plethora of Emotions”…

When you are already naked, there is no reason not to follow your heart

I love them Shakespeare

Friendship is not measured when both take care of each other;
It's measured when one ignores and the other still continues

All's Well That Ends Well

Down to earth interpretation of success

Before few days I was listening to Akshay Kumar's reactions after getting one of the most renowned Indian award named "Padma Shri". What he said about luck and success was so realistic that it left me with no reason to give it some space on my blog:

Luck and success all these things come and go but the only thing that survive you through most difficult times is your courage to continue, tell me the actors who struggled and did not get fame and success, everybody gets it in the end the only thing that is required is to continue without being discouraged and don't be tired or afraid of your failure just continue and you will definitely get what you want

A Friend most true...

I need to know if you're my true friend,
will you be by my side until the end?

Can I tell you my secrets deep,
and trust them in your heart you'll keep?


We are neither of us without our flaws,
can you accept mine as I will yours?

I'll be a shoulder to cry on when you're blue,
will you be there for me when I need you?

No matter how busy I will make time for you,
if you are busy will you make time for me too?

I will take your hand and comfort your tears,
will you hold me and soothe my fears?

I will give you joy and many warm smiles,
can we share that even across many miles?

I will not forget what's important to you,
will you remember what's important to me too?

With you my most favorite things I'll share,
If only I know do you truly care?

If you can accept me as I do you,
then I will know you are a friend most true.

Potraying my dream

This is me in my dreams happy, steady and determined. Driven by my emotions and controlled by feelings. Enjoying every bit of life without worry...

On the way to realize my dreams, no distraction no hesitation only confidence...

Touching million lives and enjoying the proximity of divine blessings....

Unique and electrifying...
