Javadocs = Pondering over your code

They say - writing Javadocs is useful only for others. It's a waste of time for the one who is writing them. But I believe it's a very easy and fast method to know better what you have developed. And it also triggers ideas for improvements. Want to know how? Try writing them "honestly".

Sometimes you don't get what you want. Sometimes everything happens exactly opposite of what you want. And then God sends very good people around you so that you get the power not to get into miserable state. They sooth you so much, your all wounds get cured automatically. You don't even notice your wounds. And with the new power you think wisely to achieve what you want. Thank you God again for sending good people in difficult moments. You are awesome! ;)

"For humans, honesty is a matter of degree. Engineers are always honest in matters of technology and human relationships. That's why it's a good idea to keep engineers away from customers, romantic interests, and other people who can't handle the truth."
- Scott Adams, The Dilbert Principle

Thank you God

They say when someone does good to you, you happen to do good to someone else. And when lot of people do good to you, then you start getting habit to do good to everyone you meet. That's true. Thank you God for sending all those good people around me. Also thank you for giving me the eyes to see that goodness.

Fear of Transition Gone!

It was only yesterday night I finished thinking/blogging(not published yet)/accepting  about the changes that I'm going to face after I'll get married, became bit nervous and this morning I read this - http://cycle-diaries.blogspot.in/

That's too inspiring! I'm enlightened. :)

Person of Interest!

Every episode starts with following voice -

"You are being watched. The government has a secret system: a machine that spies on you every hour of every day. I know because I built it. I designed the machine to detect acts of terror, but it sees everything. Violent crimes involving ordinary people, people like you. Crimes the government considered irrelevant. They wouldn't act, so I decided I would. But I needed a partner, someone with the skills to intervene. Hunted by the authorities, we work in secret. You'll never find us, but victim or perpetrator, if your number's up...we'll find you."

And that's the series about. About this mysterious machine and the people working on its output.

[Disclaimer: If you want to fully enjoy this series, I'd suggest you, as I do for every great movie/book/series, not to read ahead or any other reviews, directly go and watch the series itself to enjoy the mysteries.]

So this series is about this mysterious machine and about the people working on its output. This machine, unquestionably, will impress you of its algorithms and the way it works. But the person who has built it, Harold, will astonish you in almost every episode by his intelligence. 

This machine on identification of the crime, gives out only a social security number. You won't know if it is of the victim or of the perpetrator. You won't know what's going to happen to this person. You won't know that person's background. And now you need to get all the information and save or stop that person from the crime. Thus along with the technical astonishment of the machine and its creator, there is one more astounding character whose skills will impress you in the process of stopping the crime. And that's John Reese. "A tall guy in a suit." Both of these characters run this series. 

In the series, both of these folks are assumed to be dead by almost the whole world. And still, they do this great work of stopping crimes. In return, they don't expect anything. Harold, who is such a genius to create this machine, John who is playing with his life to save people; both of them prefer to stay away from being observed, being credited. And when I look at the people around, most of them want credits of whatever minute things they do. Probably I also appear the same to others. Who knows? Such characters, however fictitious they may be, they are the real inspirations to me.

Now talking about the creator of the series, Jonathan Nolan; I'm very ordinary person to comment on him. I can just keep wondering "How can someone be so clever to create such extraordinary things?". Each character in this series has something unique in its way. I can see how much effort he must have spent in designing each of them. I have become a great fan of this guy and his equally genius brother Christopher Nolan. Batman Series, The Prestige, Inception and now this series. I'm sure "The Memento" won't be less riveting.

Inspirations

A good way to have a good idea is to have lots of ideas.

One of the best ways of learning how to do anything new (including software APIs!) is to get your hands dirty as quickly as possible.
