Balbir's Blog: Your code is only as good as the tests you run on it
http://balbir.blogspot.com/2013/10/your-code-is-only-as-good-as-tests-you.html
I describe all the programming and non-programming stuff I do. Friday, October 11, 2013. Your code is only as good as the tests you run on it. Computer programs have an interesting well known quality - even incorrect programs can produce the desired output for a subset of inputs. I recently re-learnt this while doing my graphical convex hull implementation. I started with a test strategy of random test generation. Use a good random number generator to generate. Number of random points as input. Subscribe...

Balbir's Blog: A night that stole more than just my sleep
http://balbir.blogspot.com/2012/04/night-that-stole-more-than-just-my.html
I describe all the programming and non-programming stuff I do. Thursday, April 19, 2012. A night that stole more than just my sleep. What a night. I lost all useful data on my desktop due to (a) lack of sleep (b) eagerness to install Fedora 17 Beta. How this happened is a long story, but here is the sequence of events. I saw Fedora 17 Beta (got excited with the new release features). Got excited and upgraded my Fedora 15 (that I had maintained since Fedora 10 and kept doing upgrades) to Fedora 17. Come o...

Balbir's Blog: The call for better reading/writing skills
http://balbir.blogspot.com/2013/09/the-call-for-better-readingwriting.html
I describe all the programming and non-programming stuff I do. Thursday, September 19, 2013. The call for better reading/writing skills. I am sure you've faced it and done it to others - not read. The entire email in totality. Or communication in full and missed parts. Summary of the problem. Of late, I've seen people ask questions already answered in the email they are replying too. People chain emails expecting everybody to read things top to bottom. Most people reply on top of emails. Top Posting.

Balbir's Blog: Happy New Year 2015
http://balbir.blogspot.com/2015/01/happy-new-year-2015.html
I describe all the programming and non-programming stuff I do. Monday, January 12, 2015. Happy New Year 2015. I did not mean to make this about my need for new compute. Here are my predictions for 2015/16 (yeah. a bit more). Data center compute will get interesting with new processors and workloads. OS Wars will light up again. Children/Kids will get earlier access to computers and buy more hardware. Internet and bandwidth consolidation will across several devices - phone/computer/TV. Happy New Year 2015.

Balbir's Blog: My prediction for the new wave of consumer electronics
http://balbir.blogspot.com/2013/02/my-prediction-for-new-wave-of-consumer.html
I describe all the programming and non-programming stuff I do. Sunday, February 03, 2013. My prediction for the new wave of consumer electronics. Remember the time when new laptops/desktops were fun to have. A laptop was a must have for college (I never had one, but thanks to my brother I had a great computer, where I learnt all my programming). The new rage is now the new era of merged functionality. Easier to carry around. Single device to carry (integrated functionality). Not upgradable in any sense.

Balbir's Blog: Lessons learnt - cheap Android devices
http://balbir.blogspot.com/2014/05/lessons-learnt-cheap-android-devices.html
I describe all the programming and non-programming stuff I do. Friday, May 23, 2014. Lessons learnt - cheap Android devices. One of the best things about an Android device is that it comes in various form factors and various price ranges. Over the years I've bought close to 6 Android devices. My first device was expensive and had no GPU hardware. I could not play games on it, so I decided to move to another one. This time I got a Nexus 4 as a gift. The good news is that since the hardware was cheap, I co...

Balbir's Blog: Poem of Physics
http://balbir.blogspot.com/2012/03/poem-of-physics.html
I describe all the programming and non-programming stuff I do. Saturday, March 31, 2012. I hope you see my plight. Why does light travel at the speed of light. Which almost seems infinite! When I think of infinite, I think of god. Does he hide,. Hidden in corners, exposed by the equations right. I can see the infinite, but not his might. In a circle so beautiful, like the zero. But, yes sometimes I wish I never know. For its the unknown that makes us go. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Fabrice Bellar...
