So this is me sitting in a room called brainspace at IISERB writing this at 4:55 PM on 13th of April. Last night I finished reading a book written by Ashneer Grover – ‘Doglapan’. So thought of sharing what all it is about with you guys.


Ashneer Grover, now, has a Bad Boy Businessman persona after his appearance in the Indian edition of Shark Tank. In his book – Doglapan, he has written about himself, his life, his business, and much more. He, like many other founders of many other start-ups has a his own story of a coup, which, again, like many other business coups is very interesting to learn about. Business, always excited me, not because of the money, but because of the action, money is just to keep check of the scores. I feel, business is action without violence. Ive read biographies of many entrepreneurs like Zuck, Musk, Gates, Jobs. Reading about their adventurous business endeavours and coups always had been very exciting for me.



Today, I got my goddam cycle repaired after a whole month of realising that its broken. When I went to the mechanic he just had a look at my cycle and just asked me to twist the handle, I did what he said, and woah my cycle was back for which he charged me Rs.10. Just an small piece advice and Rs.10 made, but it wasn’t just any piece of advice. He might’ve taken months, if not years to develop the skill of doing what he did today. He didn’t charge me for the 10 minutes of help, he charged me for the entire time he took to develop this.

 

Its 8:55 PM now and Im done with dinner. Maybe I should study a bit for my upcoming tests and quizzes. So, for now, bye.

 The title suggests something about which I might write something some time later. Its 10:21 AM on a Thursday morning, I just had a milkshake, the weather's chill, so thought lets write some stuff down. Im gonna go back to IIMN this summer, I plan to write daily stuff there, lets see how much can I live upto this word of mine. Kounde's matchday playlist blasting on my ears, ahh, clean stuff. My work this time is gonna be about extracting features from posts of a particular IG account and correlating with the engagement metrics. Tough job given how many features can be present and the accuracy with which I could potentially extract them, will have to design a pipeline for this, gonna be my first time working with ML pipelines and maybe even MLops.  The playlist is damn good, newfound love for J.Cole, and Metro Boomin, Dini and Dosseh.  I think I should maybe switch to some different site to publish my blogs, maybe some everyday logger if I can find.  Ah, gotta work so...

Where have I been?

I havent posted anything in a while, almost 9 months, or almost two semesters. Now, obviously nobody cares where have I been, its not like this blog has a zillion readers, but I would still like to go on. Its a Sunday almost noon, at the IISERB library first floor, which has been my go to place since past month due to the ridiculously irritating heat here, and what, maybe 500 others as well? Nevermind, coming back, I had not planned to write anything anytime soon, but I came here today, was feeling pretty bored, did some light work, which I think is gonna bite me back in the near future, anyways, I was just looking at the blog analytics, and thought, ah, lets give it a shot today, its been a long time we've written, so here I am, on it. I genuinely love the album - The Division Bell, 2011 remastered version of Pink Floyd, its pretty soothing and I am writing this as it plays. The past, almost a year has been pretty nice, especially my fifth semester, I realised what I wanna finally...

this sem is about to end.

We had our batch photo today, it was long overdue given how all my junior batches have had one; this idea struck to Aryan back when we used to see IISER Mohali peeps post their batch photos at the end of every year on Twitter, glad to see the culture has started here at IISERB as well. So, I am sitting in CCD, tired of studying NLP in library, well, not tired exactly, its just a lot to study in so less time. I actually had a thought today, of starting a technical blog, or maybe a finance blog, or maybe both, under the same banner name but two different blogs. I changed my blog title to 'everyday stuff' and blog address to 'markoveffect', by the way, I love the markov effect and its mathematical intricacies. I am pretty hungry but need to study as well, cant think of writing anything as of now, maybe continue tomorrow. Until then, bye.
