AI Human Interface
AI is like good thing to have, it reduces search time on the web when we are trying to compose certain things. It gives you sweet workable parts, but suppresses your thinking capacity by a minute amount everytime. All one has to do is copy, and paste and evaluate. I’d like a coin a term, AHI, AI human interface, as stupid as it sounds. An AHI is just middle layer between AI as a function and target solution nirvana.
Getting Over It
Reminding myself about The Law of Triviality, I decided that I ought to settle for writing, not preplanning of layouts or design or yada yada. In the past, all my nerdy and geeky broadcasts were nothing but few video clips scattered on my Instagram and disappeared WhatsApp statuses. After joining Summer Training from dgplug and following their advice on blogging plus recalling a bit of “Portfolio v/s resume” made me write this very post and told myself how cool this was.
Hello Project-Euler 47, I'm ravish0007
Hello again, let us talk to project-euler 47 (https://projecteuler.net/problem=47). My friend Vin* is little cool, she bugged me with project-euler-47, this post is just a text version of my thoughts and few little random walks.
Hello World (again)
I’m with nighthack now, and I had lost access to source of this blog. Meanwhile I have been tinkering, learning fuctional bits, gave a retry to all the things that were in my mind. Well, This is a blog post is to put back the online presense. I also went to Debian India conference, made some friends, it was an incredible experience. Right now, I and my team working towards no code tools, I’m in db-builder team.
It's a wrap...or is it?
I graduated from GeekSkool, with a pending final project, and hoping to complete it on weekends. The most valuable thing I learned from GeekSkool is not to overthink a project or optimize it prematurely for that matter, the spirit of accomplishing tasks little by little in a progressive manner brings joy and is quite tangible to measure. I like this spirit, and I like to stick with it. I’ve made a few personal resolutions, one among them is ABC “always be coding” (learning in general).
Joining GeekSkool
I was looking for jobs on hasjobs.co and stumbled upon a post that pointed to GeekSkool, a programming boot camp, which I applied to it later on. I got a call on next day, and I was told to study the first six chapters of Eloquent JavaScript. After completing it, I went to GeekSkool for a screening test, I almost got failed by not answering “Name inbuilt data types in JS & What’s a Closure?
Loophole in a Loophole
When I surf on the web, sometimes there won’t be a limit to curiosity. When I look at a catchy program, I want to try it at that very instant, but this is almost impossible in a typical work computer. For each software, I either had to look into the employer’s custom app store or write a mail to local IT and wait for several hours or sometimes days, and it better had a business use case to them.
My first Debian package
I attended Debconf, Kochi, India. Meeting diverse people with various background taught me lot. It also taught me pain and suffering, seeing a fellow human leave us in between. Fortunately, I was able to do debian packaging on the side, particularly ruby. This is a thank you note for Pirate Praveen, and Vinay Keshava for helping me out in doing so. My first debian package is ruby-duo-api. Thank you Debian.
Validating Sudoku
I was asked to validate a sudoku, So far I’ve never tried it although I have come across this multiple times. I wrote some code with naive approach, one board state and bunch of impure functions around it.
