revv

revv

It was raining today
and I wished you were here
on my bike, behind me
holding me, hugging me
loving arms around me
your warm breath on me
but it never happened
it never did, may be someday
but it may never will...

yours, mine and the bike’s
all hearts revving up in sync
piercing the pearls of rain
while the taste still lasts
of the food that they served
while the glimpse still lasts
of the smile that you served
told me what all i can do
to see it again, again and again

that good night smile you gave,
you shouldnt have;
that touch of your hand i still feel,
you shouldnt have;
but when you did,
it left a wanting for more;
more of you, more of that,
but still I’m glad, of what I had
that which I may never have.

I would If I could - 1 - Opportunities, Reservations and promotion

I would If I could - 1

Single unified reservation, promotion system where every opportunity in any form will be offered only to the women of the section of the community or a group which wants such a benefit.

Sections of the society will be identified (dalits, sc, st, muslims, christians etc.,) and those who seek reservation in jobs, financial aid or reservation of any form or type will be women first and men next. ex : If there are 100 seats reserved in STEM field of education then it will first be offered to the females of the reserved class and then the remaining will be given to the males. So far most of such opportunities are grabbed by men and the status of their community is still at such a lower state that even after decades of independence they need this affirmative action. If this is offered to females first and then males then it will be greatly effective in 2 ways as below.

1. Hyper gamy is mainly followed by females so if females are having their status improved by such affirmative action in their community/group then males will be indirectly forced to up their game and effort to be in  a higher status than the females so that they can be eligible for the females.
Currently,  males get all the opportunities defined in such affirmative action and thus they will be eligible for the females with least or no effort which also forces the females of such communities to be backward, oppressed and have no say in any family matters such as family planning.

2. In almost all the cases where both males and females are educated they dont have more children than they can afford to take care of... In most cases they have just 2 or a maximum of 3 kids per couple. This will control the population too. Uncontrolled population growth of a community is one of the reason of poverty and backwardness.

I would If I could - 0 - If I Served

This is a series of blogs which i am planning to write about what I would do if i could. This is not me hoping for a dictatorship with me as the dictator but this is me listing out the things that I would like to be done, laws or even influence them. Hopefully someone will read them and implement.

The kind of people I don't have as guests no more

1. They cause sleep deprivation
So everyone has their own sleeping pattern and comfort. I like mine to be quiet and dark.
a) It's annoying to have someone who has to have a fan turned on which makes me feel that I am sleeping under a chopper or a helicopter. It's just noisy and cold for me.
b) your body gets used to your snoring and can sleep with it but you can't tolerate someone else snoring in your bed, Atleast not me. I can't sleep anywhere where it is not quiet. I admit I snore slightly but I don't appreciate someone waking me or shaking me when I start to snore a bit bcz everytime then do that to break my snoring it takes 30 minutes for me to get back to sleep.
c) they want the light turned on and I love my room to be dark when I sleep.
2. They make my place messier than what it was
If you ask me Its not polite to go to someone's place and litter everywhere before you leave. If I visit someone's place and I want to be able to visit them again, then I will try not to make they're messier than what it was.. If possible I will gladly name it neater if not cleaner before I leave.

Feminism --> MGTOW the cashcow for the short sighted capitalists

There are some who are of the view that feminism will destroy the economy, starting from the west but on the contrary it might make the capitalist's eyes bigger and wider.
Let us say that there is a family of 6 with 2 kids, parents and grand parents. This is the scene of India few years ago. This is very bad for the economy since they will now have just 1 house which is bad for the real estate business. They will now have just 1 TV, 1 home phone, 1 radio, 1 car for all which is bad for the economy. Now let us have the broken families of the west where they have to take appointment to meet their parents (which most often will be more than 2). Now grand pa has his own house, grand ma has her own house, husband and wife are taking a divorce and they have a separate house, their kids are of age now and they have their own place to stay. In short now all the materials are 6x than the earlier time. Feminism is greatly helping this cause and if everyone becomes a MGTOW then it is even better for the economy. Now instead of 2 we have 4 people fighting for the custody of the kid. Let us say a gay couple now wants a baby and hire a surrogate mother and the egg was from another lady of their preference. Now the there are potentially 4 people who can go to court to claim the custody of the child. In the case of MGTOW it is 3. If everyone in the world becomes single and start having kids like this method of surrogacy and borrowed eggs then we have some individuals who have to buy every thing for themselves without having to share anything that they buy. Everyone in the world has a house, their own car, their own bike, their own everything since they don't have anyone to share it. This is also great for the government because now they have more to govern where nobody is in support of anyone as a family and nobody is going to back anyone as a family; everyone is for themselves. Division of family helped in favor of capitalism and now it seems that was not enough.
8/9/2015
So you might wonder what next? How will our species progress? How will our species survive if nobody is having kids or the population starts decreasing? The answer is simple. Then it will be even more prosperous situation for the pharmas and corporates involved in the artificial uterus technology where you can have babies without the need of a women or a man. Science has already progressed to a level where one can have human off-springs with just one gender. Imagine what happens when both the gender's physical, reproductive and other needs are met by private corporations with some cost attached but not each other for free. Instead of man and women meeting each other's physical needs for free now they pay for a corporation for their needs, just like they pay for a cooking machine, washing machine, virtual reality tech etc., instead of a situation of their ancestors where they had it for free from each other and it was a whole lot better than anything that they could ever have. Just Imagine...

Why do men get paid more than women?

These are my cents on this ongoing debate all over the world.
  1. In an unlikely event of a boat sinking, women get to leave with their kids and for some unexplained reason men get to stay on the boat to die.
  2. At times of war and crisis for some unexplained reason men pick up arms to protect their women and children and contribute 99% to 100% of martyrdom during a crisis.
  3. at times of crisis like a hostage situation they negotiate for women first and men get to be treated as expendables.
  4. Women experience mood swings during periods., that is 3-5 days before periods and 2-3 days after the period which sums upto 10 days and such mood swings contribute negatively at work.
  5. In any society men are expected by the society to provide for the women even during casual dates for her movie, shopping, dinner, commuting expenses etc.,
  6. Men contribute almost 100% in all the physically challenging/demanding work environments like mining, construction etc.,
  7. A women needs time off work for maternity which can be a issue for a business if the role requires the executive to maintain constant connection with the clients. ex: hedge funds.
  8. Men are more likely to work till they retire than women. Most women may opt out of work and choose to be a home maker after 2-3 kids.

The Soulmate

I often wonder why always people try to waste their life around perfect, perfect thing or the perfect one. The whole objectivity of life is the  journey to the road to perfection from the point of imperfection. You know that infinity is not going to end and you will never be close to its end, no matter how hard you try.

If you believe that there is always an area of improvement then infinity should be the perfection because only infinity gets better than what it was every time and all the time. So if perfection is infinity then you will never find your perfect one, soul mate, the one or made for each other guy or girl because if you have found them then you have only found the one who is better among those whom you have met so far but not 'the one'.  If people change over a period time is true then everyone has a different perfect one every day in the universe. I am not the same person (physically, mentally) compared to yesterday or tomorrow. Let us say if at all there is some supernatural way of figuring out a perfect partner for someone then as per the physical and mental health, nature and growth I might be the perfect one someone like me in another country but tomorrow the perfect one for me might be someone entirely different. Let me elaborate a little more. Let us say that tonight I see a movie and that movie change my whole perception towards life by tomorrow, then I am a different person by tomorrow. Since I am different person by tomorrow, my perfect one will also be a different one by tomorrow as per my new views towards life, world, myself and others. Yesterday I might have been someone who was a non vegetarian but today after seeing a video of a slaughterhouse and how the animals are suffered, tortured and ripped apart forcefully, I might become a vegan by tomorrow. So If I am a vegan today my perfect one should be someone who respects, responds and resonates towards my feelings about animals, birds and nature where as until yesterday I was a meat eater and thus I would have been okay with someone with a fur jacket.
The point is perfection is a myth which is only useful for the entertainment industry to make songs, music, movies and merchandise around it but not for real life. Now I begin to understand why my native culture at bharat gave importance to developing love towards the one whom you have married than chasing the wild invisible goose of love, perfection and soul mate. Arranged marriages are more successful in a gigantic proportion against the love marriages.
Let us say you are playing a game and you are told that no matter what you do, how you play, you are going to win and the game has been rigged, judges have been bought to make sure odds will always favor you; Won't you find that game boring ? What fun is there in playing a video-game where you know the whole layout of the game as if you are the one who made it and also there are 'no challenges', 'points of curiosity' , 'moments of suspense' etc., missing against another experience where you have played a game for the first time and at many levels you lost, you died, reborn, you got frustrated and threw the gamepad/keyboard/mouse/joystick away, screamed, yelled but somehow you finally won. I make this statement very boldly today. "If god grants the perfect one or the soul mate to everyone then the human race will be cannibalized and vanish" . It is definitely not about finding a sculpture on a mountain but it is about finding a suitable rock on which you are confident that you can work on it and then make a sculpture out of it. your life partner should also be the same. You are wasting your precious time if you think you are searching for a perfect one or a soul mate because that is logically impossible. Here in my country of 1.4 billion people arranged marriages happen and more than 98% of them last forever, yes forever. It is all about 2 individuals ability to transform each other together and that and those which surround them to achieve their means and definition of a good life.

If I had a million dollar or a programmer

I have wondered over the years whether there is a conspiracy to not to develop an application which is truly cross platform, that is
windows,
Mac,
Gnu/Linux,
android,
iOS,
most of the music players stop at gnu/linux but till date there is no application which can sync your music between your gnu/linux OS and an android or with your iphone. Even the music players which are there on windows are not truly there on android or iphone and they cant sync to each other. I am finding it annoying to carry the ipod classic since it has to be wired and it is bulky. I want to use my android phone itself but no go since all the immature apps which are there on android play store to sync music are not truly there on desktop to play music but only to sync. ex: the doubletwist, isyncr etc., The day someone finds a way to sync or use the same media files across the devices without putting it on the cloud and having to pay a hefty data charges for the network providers, someone is going to be a billionaire. I wish I knew programming enough to just compile the banshee or any other such gnu gpl music player to android and distribute it but unfortunately my years of forced interest to learn programming (even python) have seen no positive outcome. I guess this will never happen, not until goolgle actually uses such flaws and vacuum to falsely give us an illusion of choice to use android on desktops or on all your devices too so that you dont have to worry about getting different applications for different platform since it seems easier to use all spying, NSA loving android on all devices to solve a problem. If you want to sell some shit then create a vacuum or a bigger shit and then give your shit as a comparison to show that your shit is actually a better choice than the other one.... nice marketing for mobile devices and force everyone to use mobile devices and cloud so that it makes it much easier for them to have all of your data where you are willingly and voluntarily giving it to them. The best way to take someone's freedom is to make them give it to you by choice.

My impossible Weapon to Save Bharath

When jews got israel they didnt build huge temples but they invested in the education of jews and today they are among the world's most elite in almost all fields. Knowledge is a bigger weapon than the strength of numbers or money because laxmi (Devi of Wealth) always follows Saraswati (Devi of Knowledge and Wisdom).
Temples of hindus were the centres of education, wisdom, culture and heritage but today many of them are just into making money. Almost all the wealth of the temples was used to the upliftment of the society through education, preservation of heritage, culture etc., but today it is only being used to market that temple. If we release the temples back to their trustees "unconditionally" they will become more corrupt than what they are now. Our Devis and Devathas never created disparity among rich and the poor but today a rich can visit the Devatha faster than poor which is an insult to Devatha and our heritage (The ticket system at temples which allows the rich to get a faster Darshan).
If someone can they they should mandate all the temples to either surrender to the government completely or give 1/3 of their annual income to the 'Hindu Fund' and in return they will have autonomy with their temple with no interference. This Hindu Fund should be used only to sponsor scholarships of Hindus.
Today our talent is just getting migrated to the west and bharat is suffering because of that. What is the use of investing on such talent when they are not ready to serve bharat by staying here but it is also against bharatiyatha or hinduism to force them to stay here and serve bharat. We should only sponsor or give scholarships to those who are ready to be bound by a legal clause which makes them return the loan (student loan) without interest or not at all but if they choose to give up the citizenship of India or serve outside bharath for more than few years then they have to contribute to the hindu fund 3 times the money that the 'Hindu Fund' spent on them. This way it will encourage the talents stay in bharath and prosper bharath. If possible I would like to extend this only to the male children. Always feminine has been given a higher and more cultural and religious importance in our dharma for a reason because she can excel in anything to which she puts her mind to it and thats we must encourage them to the most important task of the society, that is preservation of our culture, traditions, knowledge, preservation of the family values. The outside bookish knowledge, working, earning are the 2nd grade activity belonging only men when compared to the preservation of the society, family, educating the children, teaching them shastras or many other things. They should also be educated to the highest peak possible but to make them able to go earn in the society but her curriculum (at home or outside) should give more importance to politics, religion, society building, our scriptures, culture etc., and if she wishes to gain more knowledge on any other subject then she is free to do so anyway in this world of information. She should be educated and more knowledgeable to teach the children in various subjects.
I might be wrong but as I have seen in the society when today women start earning and also lack of the actual knowledge of our heritage they start feel that they have to become equal to men by wearing their dresses, drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes like them or by going out, working and earning like them where as it is demeaning for her to think that since women are greater than men and by trying to be equal to men they are downgrading themselves. It is only women who can create but men can only destroy. When a man earns enough and starts to look for a women to have a family with , he cares very less for her riches but gives more importance to her nature, wisdom, knowledge and the society's opinion about her. I have seen many men feel threatened and they shy away from a women who earns like them, smokes like them,drinks like them,dresses like them or trying to be like men. In hinduism nothing is taboo or banned and one is free to choose their way but a man's parents choose a women for him based on her nature, beauty, family values etc., but a women's parents look for a guy's wealth , profession, status in society etc., If one cares to have a balanced society where the population ration doesnt grow negatively like japan or germany then a man should be promoted to attain a higher social status and a women should be promoted to attain a higher cultural status sex, care, children and many other things which were exclusive to marriage are freely accessible to both the genders outside marriage and they do not need to adhere to any so called culture or heritage of the country anymore.
I have labelled it as an impossible weapon....... because i know it takes guts of glory and balls of titanium to have a mandate to make the temples pay 1/3 of their income but otherwise there wont be any left to go to the temples once slowly all get migrated to other faith systems where their religious or worship places give out money for following the faith. In hinduism when we go to temples one pays to the temples (not to Devtha since he doesnt need it but to maintain the temple the trustees need it) but in some faith systems you get money if you convert a person to their faith from their religious houses, they even will award you with wealth to make others migrate by force or deceit since as per their faith system they are only helping us to go to heaven since otherwise we are doomed to go to hell. It is more like saving a patient against his will and curing him of his disease. There is a reason Shiva bought destruction through invaders on his temples and on bharat because the land became corrupt with money, somnath temple for instance had so much wealth in it that they invaders couldnt take it all at once where as the wealth should have been spent to the wellness of the society and the people. If all were rich and well in that society then as per 'vasudaiva kutumbakam' we should have used that wealth to help the far off places from where the invaders came from to help them prosper and if that has happened then there would have been no invaders but only allies.

Why and how loyalty deterioates a society

Today I called SBI (state bank of india) to have a Fixed deposit for a good amount of money but it took me 4 hours of phone call with their customer care and nobody could help with anything. This is a huge problem with he public sector organizations in india where job security will be there with you irrespective of whether you work or not, whether it the company is doing well or not. There were no ATMs in india before citibank came and threatened these mighty public sector banks. Till date date public sector employees be it may the tellers or a watchmen are the rudest among any employees in the world.
If there were no private banks in india to threaten these banks then there would have been no ATMs, there would have been no improvement in the behaviour of these employees of the public sector. If there were no private transport system then there would have been no improvement in the transport system of india. If there were no private airlines then there would have been no improvement in our airlines. If there were no private telephone carriers then there would have been no IT revolution in india. If tomorrow all people in USA decide to buy only good made in USA then they will be 100 years behind any other country since making an gadget in asian countries like china, taiwan or india costs atleast 10 times less than what it costs to make it in USA. Many of the things like tomato, chilli were not from india including electricity, automobiles etc, so should we reject them too? One should always choose a better service or product when available because only that will encourage competition and betterment of the existing service and product. The worst thing that one can have in the world of consumerism or even employment is loyalty. Brand loyalty will ruin a product and makes the makers of the brand lazy since they already have an established market and they dont want to improve it anymore but just maintain it. If tomorrow a telephone carrier has all of its customers as loyal as they can be with it then they never have to worry about improving their service and there would be no reason for others to compete with this telephone carrier since anyway they are not going to get their customers since they are loyal with it. I think the same is applicable for employment too. If a company or organization knows that its employees are not going to leave irrespective of no salary hike for year, no remuneration, no standard facilities or deterioration of the work culture then they will never try to improve the conditions of their employees since now they are taken for granted anyway. If a production environment has no people to produce since they are fast moving to someone who treats them right or pays them well then obviously the current organization will be forced to be competitive in taking care of its employees in terms of remuneration and over all well being of its employees. Loyalty is a very dangerous thing which will lead to the deterioration of the society.
You might observe how a guy and girl take care of their looks, health, fitness, appearance to keep it pleasing to their partner but once they either get married or know that the other has no where to go to then they have taken each other for granted. Wife no more has the need to take care of the herself, groom herself, lose all that extra pounds, no need to dress well or cook well since her guy is tied to her now and she has no "need" of putting an effort to please him. The same is true for the guy too once they are wed-locked with each other. This is the reason why it is better to always move to a place or move towards someone where you are treated better or atleast you will be treated accordingly, the way you treat others or the way you treat a place. If someone or some place is ready to invest the same devotion and dedication in you the way you do to them then you are a coward not to take that chance who would rather stay cozy with known devil than an unknown possible sanity.




Horizontal Growth System (HGS) against the Vertical Growth System (VGS)

Many are predicting that majority of a country's population (as much as 90%) will some day live in cities ( I hope it is not the conspiracy of some real estate goons, lol) and I do not know why is that such a great news. It saddens to know that many have to leave their home, people, neighbors, favorite restaurants, favorite hang out places or the memories of their childhood to earn a living to some far away place where nobody knows nobody and they try to nobody and even after knowing the nobodies none will know till a month passes by when you die in your bed with old age until you smell too rotten to your neighbor.
Shouldn't our aim be to develop all the regions equally, together? Is it not our priority to have an inclusive growth? If we want the inclusive growth to happen then we should slowly scatter the sources of growth all around the place to promote inclusive growth where there are multiple centers of growth. It is also a great thing to do in terms of national security since if you have 90% of a country's population living in one place it is easy to finish off a country's majority of the the population along with all the main leaders of the country with just one bomb.
Imagine if a country like India has 26 capital cities for each state and 90% of the population of a state lives in the capital city of that state then all it takes for another country to destroy is less than 30 bombs.
The power or source of these growths are not just industries or farming but mainly the education centers. one should give a choice to the colleges which are offering degrees in the city but meeting up the expectations to either lose their license to offer the degrees (Medicine, engineering, diplomas etc.,) or move out of the main city and to a district from where a lot of students are coming to study to city. Let us say there are 20 districts in a state and there are 200 engineering colleges then our goal should be to distribute 10 colleges per district. Many employers flock to a place where there is talent and now if the talent is spread across the state the employers too will spread. This will improve the stability of the employees too since now they cant jump to another employer every year since all the major companies are in the same city. It will lessen the burden of the city, reduce the cost of the living, student now will have to stay or move to a different district or state for studies and that will end racism by letting them interact with the other part of the country's people. Instead of 1 mega center of power, growth and population now we have multiple powers of growth offering redundancy and inclusive growth. We must try to reduce the burden of the city by creating alternate centers and regions of growth, employment and opportunities in every district.
Limit the height of non residential buildings, this will make businesses spread horizontally, covering more area and the cost of housing (apartments) will reduce. Reduced housing means people will prefer owning instead of renting and when if an area has more owners residing in their residence then the residents will care more about the area, politics in the area, positive growth in the area instead of moving elsewhere if it becomes too unsafe since owners invest not just in their residence but also in the area of the residence.
This will put an end to hunger, parents having to die a lonely death at their old age, traffic jams in cities, unemployment, cost of living, cheaper real estates and a lot other things which are caused by crowded population at one place.
I will make it even simple for you if you don't want to read all this. If 90% of the earth's or a country's population lives in the city then one nuclear bomb is enough to take down the whole country, a single contamination of the water source for the city is more than enough to take down the whole country, a single power failure to a city is enough to take down the whole country or a single man made or natural epidemic is more than enough to take down the whole country.

Big Bang, Darwin and Bible, Can all be true at the same time?

As per hinduism one day of brahma (Creator aspect of Almighty) or Brahman (The Almighty Force/God)  is 4320,000,000 man years also known as kalp. As per bible the creation happened in 6 days but it doesnt say it is 6 man days as we know there was no man, there was no earth, there was no sunrise or sunset to calculate a day and neither was there any solar system or galaxy or  stars for that matter. As per big bang theory it was a massive explosion and it is still an expanding universe due to that explosion. The big bang theory tells us that after the explosion the gaseous materials and the residues were all combined, collided and later it all evolved into the present universe. If we take both the big bang theory and the biblical version of creation as true (including the darwin's theory) we are left with one question! What kind of day is the bible talking about? when there was no sunrise, sunset, earth or any of the planets for that matter. So it must be the day at the heavens or at the place of the creator or the force behind this creation (atheists please be with me a little longer and agnostics too...). After life was created the tadpole became ape, ape evolved into a man as per darwin's theory. Just for the argument sake if we take the darwin's theory, big bang theory and the bible's version of creation as true then we come to the conclusion that from the day of the big bang explosion to the day the ape evolved into a man it took 6 brahman days that is 6*4320,000,000 man years (25.9 billion years) . As per Big Bang theorists it happened approximately 13 billion years ago. You might ask how did Hindus came up with this number? well don't ask me but ask some spiritual leaders or hindu gurus because I too dont know how they calculated the exact number of moons around the saturn along with their speed of rotation and axis of rotation without a telescope but as someone who belongs to this oldest surviving culture and race on the face of the earth who invented the 0 I can certainly tell you that early humans were genius. Bible doesnt say creation happened just like that and neither does it say that he created the man by evolving a primitive into a human being so can it be that it was 6 brahman days the creator [Here creator doesnt have to be some man in the cloud but here when I say God I mean G(eneration)O(peration)D(estruction)] took from the big bang to the evolution of the human from a primitive organism ?! I don't know but I am just asking.

a story about my new sony xperia z1 compact

Right from the day when the news and pics of the sony xperia z1 f surfaced for the japanese market which is just a small screen version of it's big brother sony xperia z1 i was very excited to finally a mid sized phone which is small enough to be operated with just one hand but powerful enough to match any big phone in the market at that time. I was finally thinking of replacing my HTC desire HD which is almost 4 years old and i still miss it for elegance and simplicity and most importantly its metal construction and camera.
After months of wait it finally got released and i made the mistake of buying it as soon as it got released. When i bought it (march 2014) on the 2nd of the official release in india it was 35k in the local shop but there wasnt a screenguard or a case available since its new. They gave me a temporary custom cut screenguard for 200 Rs. I bought an expensive screenguard online which need to be soaked in soap water before it has to be applied to the screen and it was a complete waste of money. I took it to the mobile shop with another screenguard which i ordered online again and they couldnt do it either but they gave me another crappy screenguard for 350Rs which doesnt cover the screen completely and it got a lot of bubbles. Now i have ordered a normal screenguard online for 600Rs, so i wasted 2750Rs (200+800+800+350+600) so far and i also bought a bugdroid case online since the back already has scratches on it. After 10 days of buying this phone now it is available for 32k on online stores.
Few things which really disappointed me are the [CONS]
1. the camera : My 4 year old HTC DHD with 8mp takes much better looking pictures than this new sony xperia z1 compact with 20mp. It doesnt have a face shutter but only has a smile shutter.
2. The Internet passthrough: I wasted 2 good days with this phone to try to use PC internet on the phone via USB which i had it in my 4 year old HTC DHD phone but it doesnt have that feature. Sony just like other companies is a partner centric corporation, when it comes to making products. I tried rooting the phone but still no go. HTC DHD has a 4th option to choose from when you connect it to your computer and that is internet passthrough (reverse tethering).
3. The Build: Since I was so used to the metal construction and rough handling of HTC DHD i didnt go for the delicate plastic darlings of samsung. This one has a stell frame but not the metal body. The back is still plastic and the front is glass.It is waterproof but a security risk where sim, memory card can be taken from the phone if you have left it unattended for even 10 seconds. The panel which covers the charging or the usb port seems fragile and may come off after a long use so you are forced to now buy an expensive magnetic charger which doesnt come with the phone.
4. NonAvailability of accessories: You make a waterproof phone and to avoid taking the lid off to charge you create an external magnetic charger but you won't make it available for a country with 1.30 billion people.  I can't find a good logic here. Am I missing something ? If the fragile lid after a certain period of time gets disconnected or comes off then sony has to replace the entire handset because In the authorized service centers of my metro city there is no repair option but to repair. The only magnetic charging cable (not the dock but just the cable) costs a whopping 2000 including shipping. wtf sony why do you want to hurt yourself ?

Today I filed for a repair of the product since The camera is worse than i though because many of the units are DOA when it comes to camera because they are affected by this flash bleed issue and it is construction problem and thus it cannot be fixed with a firmware update.
I called the sony service center and they told me that they will replace the handset. Thank you sony.
3/22/2014
Today when I went Jayanagar, bangalore center they said they cannot replace it, how sad.
Below are the picture samples with "FLASH BLEED" problem and the pictures are horrible.





A sample from 4 year old HTC Desire HD



3/24/2014
Gave back the handset to the sony service center after restoring the TA partition (unrooting the device) and relocking the bootloader with a new generic firmware from sony. They said they will get the handset replaced in a week. Waiting for it now. sigh.
4/14/2014
Finally got the replacement phone. Tested it at home with flash in complete darkness and the flashbleed issue is no more there.
I strongly urge you not to use the default case provided with the phone which has a magnetic sticky strip to attach itself to the back of the phone. Its good but i somehow think the magnet in it is making the tiny camera parts inside go messy. I switched to bugdroid case and the images seems to be better.
Here are the samples of the sony xperia z1 compact phone main camera's samples after the replacement of the phone.

Lessons learnt so far:
  1. 20mp of sony xperia z1 compact > 8mp of HTC DHD, This is because many handsets have this flash bleed and interestingly this has not affected many of the black handsets.
    This 20mp is actually the 8mp which takes multiple shots and then combines it to make it look like a 20mp picture. Oppo has implemented the same in their new oppo find 7 phone where the 13mp camera takes 50mp pictures.
  2. Never buy a product before 6 months of its official release in your region.
    (a) it will be very pricey in the beginning
    (b)no basic accessories
    (c)if it goes for repair then it will take forever since it will be a new product and the parts will not be available soon for replacement.
  3. make a list of your favorite features of your current phone/product offers (internet passthorugh in the case of my HTC) and check to see whether your next product/phone offers it and if not is it worth buying it.
  4. Screenguards are too big a pain to apply.
  5. Avoid buying products/gadgets/smartphones from companies who have a conflict of interest in creating a competition with their own products. Everytime an iphone/ipad sells sony makes money since it is the sony sensor which is inside an iphone. Sony is one of the world's largest seller of point and shoot cameras, handycams and also they are now emerging into the field of professional photography and videography. No business minded company would like to make a camera-phone which could potentially threaten their money minting product lines of photo & videography.
    Samsung supplies Ram, Display Screen and even its A7 chip to apple along with the SSD in apple's macbook air. Nokia will have a conflict of interest with their main windows line up of phones so they will never make phones which might compete with their windows mobile OS. So, the only other player who is worthy of being called an iphone of android is HTC.
  6. Never buy body cases like  Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit Case since they will mess up your screenguard from the edge and then you will end up replacing the screenguards every month.

Islamic Banking a flawed totalitarian concept ?!

what is islamic banking?
Islamic banking is a concept derived from the fact that in Islam forbids taxing people or charging interest for lending money. Thus a concept evolved where rich financiers, bankers or banks will lend you money to start your own business without charging any interest but instead they will be partners in your business and there is written guidelines on how much equity they will own in your business. Some say it is an 'unwritten' guideline where banks cannot own more than 50% of the profit or equity in the business of the person whom they are lending the money. Here are some of my observations
  1. It is an unwritten guideline that banks or financiers cannot own more than 50% of the equity of the business of the person to whom they are lending the money but it is an unwritten guidelines which means the bankers are not obligated to obey it under islam or under the law of the nation and one can easily demand more equity or profit than 50%.
  2. if a bank has lend money to 1 lakh people then banks now own an equity upto 50% or more in each of those businesses ranging from hotels, restaurants, autos or even mega ventures of ambanis and tatas. Now banks are partners in these businesses and thus they now have to manage all these businesses too since they are partners. Imagine a bank managing 1,00,000 businesses. Most of the companies die because of improper management and if one bank, banker or financier tries to manage 1,00,000 banks then its a death of the society since no businesses will prosper. This is totally impractical.
  3. It is very easy to discourage non muslims from trying to get a loan from these islamic banks by just asking too much equity in their businesses. If a muslim wants to own an auto then the islamic banks can ask him to give 50% (sitting) partnership benefits and for a muslim just 5% partnership benefits and obviously a non muslim will go to some normal bank where banks will only ask a % of interest for the money that they given you but not from the fortune that one can make from that money.
    Let us look at the saudi arabia the birthplace of islam and it has quran as its constitution. Unless you are someone who is a saudi citizen then you cannot own a business or run a business in your name.
    It also provides a possible dangerous means of induced conversion to islam by offering % free loans to non muslims or offering conditional loans only after conversion.
  4. If all the banks start to follow Islamic banking then it only means that the corruption will increase since banks or the bank manager will have the ultimate say in how much equity the banks can have in a business and there are no particular guidelines, the possibility of backdoor dealings will increase exponentially to bribe the bank manager or the authorities in the banks to decide in favor of them so that banks own as less equity in their business as possible.
  5. This will also mean that corrupt bank managers can make a deal with shady business runners and lend them a lot of money and show fake losses and since the banks also share the losses here , banks will lose all the money. Ex:- I will make a deal with the few corrupt bank authorities to lend me  1 crore from the Islamic bank and let the bank own 90% of the equity. Then I will declare that I suffered a huge loss in my business and show the manufactured records for it too. Now since banks own 90% equity, banks now suffered 90% loss of  the 1 crore money that they lent me. In other words banks are responsible for the 90% loss and I am only responsible for the 10 lakhs. Since banks are partners in too many businesses (let us say they have lent money to 1lakh businesses thus they are partners in 1 lakh businesses and it is impossible for a bank to manage these 1 lakh businesses thus they will fail to monitor how their money is being used which leads to easy bank frauds).
  6. If the bank has lent money to 1 lakh businesses then they have to have atleast 1 lakh more employees places in each of these businesses to make sure that the money is being used correctly and the business is being run correctly. This employee of the bank is also a potential CEO or a director in the board of directors so he has to be paid a huge salary too as per the salary structure of a CEO and if not he can be easily bought by the borrower of the money to show fake losses. Can a bank afford 1 lakh CEOs placed in all of the businesses of they co own and pay them well in crores p.a. ?
  7. Since here banks also share the losses it will very easy to fund the islamic terrorists by just lending them money with maximum equity to bank and show losses later so that the terrorists can keep the money. ex: as a terrorist i will get 1 lakh loan with 90% equity to the bank and i will show a complete loss and pay 10k to the bank since i owed only 10% of the equity in the business.
  8. This can be easily used for money laundering too in the same way as stated in the point above.
  9. Islamic banking will not give loan for beauty parlours (since it is against islam), or a meat shop for sikhs or hindus who eat jatka meat but not halal,  no laon to make a movie, or music album, or music band, or art gallery since these are all against islamic principles.
  10. It's often been argued that many countries are following it and thus we should do too. If tomorrow someone starts to commit suicide should we do too? Why should anyone follow a sheep of herds if it is leading you to the wolves?
    If these countries like Malaysia, saudi, UK have islamic banks then has anyone produce a record of how many non muslims have been given a load in these banks?
    What % of loaners are non muslims in these islamic banks ?
    What % of the banks in these countries are islamic banks? The % of islamic banks in malaysia is less than a single digit. If somone has a different figure then I'm do let me in the comment section with proof.
    Where do these countries stand in the graph of the world GDP?
    UK has only a handful of such islamic banks to appease muslims and to provide an uneven advantage to muslims where muslims get loan without any interest but non muslims have to go to regular banks and pay a hefty interest every month because non muslims are discouraged to get a loan from banks with all the possible red tapes and demanding a very huge equity in their business.
  11. what if i want to take a personal loan like a loan for my marriage? will the bank own a part of my marriage? What if I want to buy a car and want a loan for that, Do i have to give a % of the equity of my car to the bank? If someone has to take a student loan from these banks then a % of his lifetime income should be given to the banks, in literal terms I will be paying upto 50% of my salary to the bank till I die and a % to the govt. as professional tax. Here islamic banks are helpless and they will just deny the loan saying we offer only loans for commercial purposes.

One Law One Nation (My Idea of uniform civil code)

If you have 3 children and if you are unfairly lineant and dear to the youngest and provide unparallelled advantages to the youngest over his or her siblings then it is obvious that the other two will be jealous, which leads to hatred and anger. This is the main basis of division in the society. When we declare all of us to be the children of this nation but still provide unfair advantages to one section of the society in the name of caste, religion, origin or other reasons we create not only jealousy among the members of the society but divisions leading to collisions and disharmony. This is only beneficial to the people in power to remain in power since now people can be busy fighting each other than fight those in power to do right for the society. This can only benefit the western countries which are actively funding such reservations and castist movements in bharath (Hindustan or India) so that the real talent can run away from bharath to come to them to prosper their nation since in bharath now the progress and recognition of a person are not base don merit or talent but based on caste, creed, color, religion, origin and affiliations. A huge chunk of NASA, Microsoft, Google and many corporations are bharatiyas (hindustanis or indians) which shows why our system is rotting since those who run the systems have been put their not because they are qualified or talented but because they are from a reservation category. This unequality is not just about reservation in jobs or college admission or other aspects of power in the society but it is scarring our society in the name of feminism which has become a disguise for the Marxist fascism.
Things need to change irreversibly
  1. end of any kind of reservation in any field for anyone.This means now all the posts in govt. or private sectors will be filled by those who deserve it but not those who reserve it. This also means right people doing the right job and no brain drain will occur which is holding back our country.
  2. no separate legal or political privilege to any particular gender, religion, people of origin or any community of people.
    This means all the gender privileges given to women will be taken off. Currently a women can accuse a man of dowry harassment or domestic violence and his entire family can be put in jail without any warrant or any preliminary proof. Currently a women will get half of a man's property after divorce. So all a pretty women has to do is keep divorcing men to get half of their property each and every time. overwhelmingly more than 80% of the cases filed by women on their men are proven to be false or incorrect to take revenge on them in the court of law.
    This also means that no temples will be taxed or controlled by govt. since no mosques or churches are controlled or taxed by govt.
    No muslim will be allowed to marry 4 wives since all can have just one legal weding partner at a time. In india there is a scarcity of women to men as per the national gender ratio and to correct it this is necessary.
    no mosques will use loud speakers and nor do the temples which disturb others who are in and around those places.
  3. no more more draconian fascist feminism They claim that men and women should be given equal rights but with the method of mere fear psychosis fascist feminists have divided our country between genders. Women have been given more benefits of being divorced than being in a wedlock. Unless there is a pre nuptual agreement a couple will not share each other's properly after divorce and no one needs to pay any kind of alimony to anyone. There shouldn't be any gender based reservations in the system too. no more abuse of domestic violence or dowry harassment cases where a women can get the entire family of the husband in jail without an option for bail and they dont need to prove in court that dowry harassment or domestic violence took place but instead the man's family and the man has to prove that it didnt take place. so here the man will be assumed guilty until proven innocent.

'ADticles' the new age of sublime and deceptive advertising

When I read the story about how 'Google Saved An Estimated $887 Million By Paying Adblock To Show Its Ads' i wasn't surprised at all. Politicians have been using media houses to promote themselves by making these media houses run their promotions in the form of genuine articles. Nobody wants to see ads now, If the user has a chance then he will completely do away with all these advertisements. The famous transformers live action movies series one of those movies where automobile companies lined up to be featured in them. If you haven't yet wondered why do most of the users in hollywood movies use mac with that shiny apple logo than a PC ? even thought PC users are more than 75% of the total global computer users.
News agencies have realized that their consumers now have gone smarter by and they might be using methods like browsers add ons such as adblock plus, flashblock or ghostery which will take out those annoying ads out of your webpage. Many people are moving away from regular news channels to e news and regular TV entertainment to downloads and streaming. In order for these media houses to survive and thrive they are now throwing us the ads in the form of articles which i like to call as ADTICLE (Ad+article) which is basically an ad in the form of an article. I am noticing that these adticles are increasing day by day in my facebook newsfeed from the pages i have liked and following. So, next time when you wonder why are you seeing four to five new articles about one particular brand, product or person then make no mistake that there has been a serious amount of money spent to make you see that.

Solution to the world's shortage of clean water

A lot of the world's population including of my country have no access to drinking water and that shows that we have failed in the collective growth of humanity. Many may talk about the lack of food too but you cannot grow food without water. I have a very simple, extremely economical and effective solution to curb all this, especially in the developing and developed countries.

When it rains the water hits the ground and most of it gets evaporated due to sunlight and other factors. This is more true especially in the developed and developing countries where it is becoming harder and harder for the earth to absorb water due to high rise buildings, roads and other manmade real estate and transport routes who act as a barrier between the earth and water. In order for the earth to stay normal, ground to stay healthy and stable it should have a normal and certain level of moisture which is achieved through ground water. The more ground water we have in a place the healthier the soil will be with all the essential micro and macro organisms which keep the soil in a state which promotes the growth of the crops. When the land loses its moisture below its normal level we may start to see land slides and land craters where the land starts to collapse and form craters. Then do we have to go back to mud roads instead of tar roads ? live in stone buildings and caves or huts instead of high rise buildings ? No, we need not but our progress shouldnt affect the planet negatively but we should find out a way to bypass this negative effect on earth.

Since it is becoming harder and harder for the earth to absorb water, especially in the urban areas we should find a way to directly take the water to mother earth's belly. We should all first begin with roads, especially bridges and flyovers. The water which falls in these flyovers goes to waste and cause a small flood on the roads too. We should have pipes which bring that water to the ground at the sides of the flyovers. These pipes should be wide and at a 45 or 135 degrees to the ground. These pipes should attach to the another pipe on the ground which directly transports the water to the ground water zone of the earth. Under the flyover there is a lot of free place anyway and hence it can be installed easily. Between the contacts of these two pipes there should be 3 mechanisms which are easily achievable. mechanism 1) the water from the flyover should enter a filter pipe which connects the ground pipe. This filter should be installed at a 5-10 degrees more than that of the flyover pipe. This filter pipe will have a metallic filter which has 60% to 90% of of it area as holes or pores. This filter will be inserted at the middle of the pipe which divides the filter pipe into upper and lower openings. Only the lower opening should be connected to the ground pipe and the upper opening should be kept open outwards so that the unwanted garbage will be thrown out through a different opening. In very rare cases we might see a situation where if one wants to make sure the water can only go in but doesn't come out  then we can have a squared pipe on top of the ground pipe with a floating lid which only opens in wards but when the water starts to come out the lid floats and forces the lid to close the opening. Here the ground water reaches the underground directly thus avoiding unnecessary evaporation of the water. I wish I knew someone who makes such 3d models (physical or digital) to show this concept visually but I don't know any such person, If you are that person then please by my guest. We have to use water from the sea with huge pipes to refill the ground water beginning with the coastal areas of the sea. India is 75% surrounded by sea and thus we will not have any lack of water.

India has 4 seasons with 3 months rain. If all the flyovers in the city use this then there won't be any problems. If all the high rise buildings use this then there will be surplus water. Imagine a situation where nobody has to depend on govt. or public sectors to supply them with water anymore because you can take the water from the underground itself when you need it. All it takes is a simple law to mandate such installation for every flyovers, high rise buildings, apartments and then later to all the new coming houses to be built, private or public.

In our ancient Bharath this is what they did. They had open wells where they use to take water when needed and during the times of rain all the rain water was directed to the well. If you go to humpi, karnataka you will see that all the stone forts and vast buildings had these water redirectors to redirect every single drop to the underground. If those oldage people did it then why can't we ?

"Right To Recall" a hostile idea in its present form

Many of you might have heard about this right to recall movement and how it is said to be the cure for all the countries problems. Below is a crash course


However more than solving it seems to create more problems or amplify them. Here the responsibility of keeping a govt. official from the bottom to the top level including the elected personnel is put on the shoulders of the voter himself which will definitely lead to populism. Currently most of the political parties bend their knees in front of the minority groups mainly muslims for their votebank since their vote is decided by the mosque in majority of the places where an entire muslim community will vote for someone based on the sermon that they receive in the mosque. There are many areas where muslims are in majority like kashmir and minority have no rights over there. If tomorrow someone has to come and introduce this new concept of right to recall then all muslims will recall anyone except those who will not hesitate to help them to ethnically cleanse the minority in the Kashmir valley. Sometimes a doctor has to give an injection the patient or perform a painful surgery even though the patient might not like it. In similar manner many a times popular ideas may not be in the nation's best interest. If this right to recall comes then these radical elements will be the happiest since they have been the masters of entering an area in small numbers then with just mere rapid breeding they will create a votebank in that area to make sure that the politicians submit to their will and demands. If tomorrow if this right to recall law is passed then any action which is against someone from their community will be stopped by just recalling the honest officer who is in charge. If the local MLA, MP is not ready to give them unfair reservation and resources then they will simply blackmail that elected person with a recall. This will lead to further appeasement in a place where our country is already suffering with too much of minority appeasement.

The motto behind this right to recall is genuinely good but the results will be disastrous. If only we could employ an altered version of it where the voter will not have to bare the burden of being responsible of monitoring every government official in this country including the pune, clerk, labor officer, IT officer, inspector, sub inspector, commissioner, MLA, MP, corporates etc., he will only have to rate his satisfaction every month which will be counted against the constituency where he voted and such a voting will be a rating of the total administration in that area.
A resident of an area gets to rate the electricity, water, roads and other public and basic commodities in his area once a month and the collective rating of that area will be the rating of the corporate and such collective rating of the corpoates will be the rating of the MLA and such collective rating of the MLA's will be the rating of the State govt and so on. The future funds will only be allocated based on the rating and such ratings should be publicly available and the highest rated should be given special funds.
OR
Whenever the resident of an area raises a complaint and after the resolution of the complaint he has to rate his satisfaction level for the resolution provided and such collective ratings per month of an area will be the rating of the corporates and such collecting rating of of the corporates will be the rating of the MLA and such collective rating of the MLA's will be the rating of the State govt and so on. The future funds will only be allocated based on the rating and such ratings should be publicly available and the highest rated should be given special funds.
motto: This will substantially help people to judge their elected officials and such a rating system will surely keep the elected officials on their toe
If someone performs consistently low in these ratings quarter after quarter then they should be recalled. Some crooks may try to have many sim cards and try to vote with that using the voter IDs of those who are illiterate about it but this won't happen since the phone from which they can rate their monthly satisfaction should have been engaged in call for atleast 5 hours in a month which means its an actively used phone connection.

The Blue Gods of Hindu (sanathana dharma) and the DNA

You might have seen the main deities of hindu shiva, vishnu, krishna and rama some times depicted with blue color and you might be wondering why? what is the connection of color blue or why are they blue colored.

I would If I could 36: Freeing press & politicians from each other

Currently, oligarchs, governements, establishments bribe the press, media outlets to either kill or boost a story. Many oligarchs buy out me...
