Antics with semantics: C++ and beyond - The power of abstractions
http://schmantics.blogspot.com/2012/02/c-and-beyond-power-of-abstractions.html
Rants, cants, vaunts and taunts about programming and computers. Monday, February 6, 2012. C and beyond - The power of abstractions. I've been primarily a C programmer, even though I have dabbled with Assembler, C, Object Pascal, Java, C#, and Javascript (in that order, chronologically). Over the years, I learned to adapt my style as much as possible from the "C with classes" style to "C with STL" to "Modern C ". There's a lot of awesome material online from. Now that I started work on. And define operat...

Jan 7th, 2013 at 4:52 PM. Ironically, today my workplace is just a few metres after the right turn. Every day I go to work, I am reminded of how much stronger I am today and how my agoraphobic days are over. My panic attacks are lesser and getting up is actually really easy. Ive come so far. So whats next? The day that I will go on a holiday, to a place Ive never been to before, alone. And trust me, there is no goal more important to me than this one. Others Stories and Doodles.

Cranks, Shafts and etc.: August 2011
http://crankshapht.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Cranks, Shafts and etc. Saturday, August 27, 2011. Comparing bananas and lemons - Part 1 : Power. When it comes to motorbikes, there is a lot of partisan attitude, some fanboyism and cliquishness…. Right here we have the Bullet chaps (moi included), the Yezdi/Jawa fans (me included), the RD350 lovers, and the RX boys – Inevitably, there is debate about the relative merits of each and much bragging about top speeds and ¼ mile times. The scientific definition of power is “ Work performed per unit time.

Antics with semantics: Embracing the hate : python, JS, node.js,
http://schmantics.blogspot.com/2014/06/embracing-hate-python-js-nodejs.html
Rants, cants, vaunts and taunts about programming and computers. Saturday, June 21, 2014. Embracing the hate : python, JS, node.js,. For a few months now, I have been working mostly with web based code, migrating nacc.nimbix.net from node.js/coffeescript to django/python, and extending the website. The first few weeks I had to add certain features to the existing website, to somehow grok through the coffeescript and understand what does what. Now I was all set to tango with django, but after programming ...

Cranks, Shafts and etc.: Comparing bananas and lemons - Part 3 : Speed
http://crankshapht.blogspot.com/2011/08/comparing-bananas-and-lemons-part-3.html
Cranks, Shafts and etc. Saturday, August 27, 2011. Comparing bananas and lemons - Part 3 : Speed. Yes I know, I seem to be plugging Enfield’s in the previous posts (and the ‘busa) but hey, you do the math and see for yourself! Anyway, I found this “speed trap” formula, given weight and power, for estimating quarter mile times and speeds - It’s surprisingly accurate:. Http:/ www.stealth316.com/2-calc-hp-et-mph.htm. One key point is that a bike has to be geared such that it hits the top speed at peak power...

Antics with semantics: December 2011
http://schmantics.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Rants, cants, vaunts and taunts about programming and computers. Monday, December 12, 2011. In my last post, I had mentioned circle drawing algorithms and how I'd rediscovered one after a couple of decades. "Why rasterize circles in this era of GPUs and 3d accelerators? The gentle reader may ask. It's always fun to re-visit fundamentals. One may wish to merely iterate a point over a circular path and a GPU can't help you there. One may have never heard or thought of this method, so it's fun! But it is ve...

Cranks, Shafts and etc.: January 2012
http://crankshapht.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Cranks, Shafts and etc. Friday, January 27, 2012. So yesterday, me and a bunch of friends went out to this paintball range and while we waited for our turn, we decided to go check out a small ATV ride in the same place. I was all excited, since I'd never driven one before and I assumed I'd be able to really throw it around since I consider myself a pretty decent bike rider (I've never driven a car BTW). Much humbled, a bit confused, but now wiser. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Tiger Tiger, Burning Bright.
