There are numerous articles and discussions on this but it fails to not amaze me on any discussion that highlights the kind of systematic looting and fraud being perpetrated by the banks and how Government is helping them do it. As the article from Matt Taibbi rightly named, it as ‘a scam that these learnt […]
I think this is imminent! Given the way these two companies are at loggerheads, this is bound to happen. Each of these companies immensely benefited from the ‘maps’ app when iPhone was launched way back in 2007. But differences flared up when Google started slowing the update of features of maps on iOS and started […]
Throughout the human history there were always ups and downs of economy. Barring natural calamities, one wonders what can cause an economy to go down, when most of the people consume and are materialistic! Are humans that foolish collectively so as not to see what is going wrong? Why do many people look to short […]
This video highlights what is going wrong in the oldest democracy, namely United States of America. For those who argue that free market philosophy is the only way to conquer the inherent nature of human greed and fallacious nature, should watch this video and think rationally as to what is going wrong. If they […]

What an amazing talk by Lawrence Lessig! I think this describes the in and out of corruption in US congress and not only is it exposed bare naked, but he actually lays out a plan to stop it without a possible equivalent of french revolution! A must watch to understand politics of U S […]
I always wondered, even if we go for all electric locomotion sometime, what about aviation? Well, this could be the answer for the future! It looks very primitive but then the Wright brothers’ first flight in North Carolina looks as primitive if we look at it now. more details here http://www.e-volo.com/Home.html
Watch the video and enjoy (or fear :-)).
Apple acquired this (it seems last year, but not too many seem to know!). I think this takes maps technology much ahead. We get real 3D version of the streets and buildings and one can zoom up close. It looks much better than the street view on google maps. They do have both iOS and […]
watch this amazing video on quantum levitation and the power of superconductivity in three dimensions! One day we will have supersonic trains if the economy and humanity survives. 🙂
I came to know about this just a short while ago. For those who are unaware who Dennis Ritchie is, he was co-inventor of Unix Operating System (OS) along with Ken Thompson and inventor of ‘C’ language. No need to say these two revolutionized the use of computers and actually got the computers […]
UPDATED: with a link to third party comparison It looks like Amazon is going to upstage Apple at it’s own game here. They came up with this hand-held entertainment system. It is not for games and some other apps like iPad but I guess for someone who likes to read and watch media and listen […]
Prologue This is being presented not out of religious fervor or belief but more as a story that transcended generations as told by ancestors, their ancestors and their ancestors. The story is probably based on something really happened but over a period when told to generations after generations it adds the legendary nature to the […]
As promised here are my thoughts on liberalism. I am touching upon only some aspects of liberalism which are self-defeating. Liberalism has it’s roots dating back to French Revolution which was a culmination of revolt against feudalism, repressive church and monarchies. It was Renaissance during 15th century that gradually resulted in questioning the institutions […]
A lot of debate currently going on reducing the deficit and it is being shown as a problem that is orthogonal to economic growth, which is not true. Why can’t those thinking this way get the point that economic and employment growth can reduce the deficits and not the other way which is reducing deficits […]
