The pursuit of happiness

What is happiness?

Something that happens after we wish for it.
  So won't we be happy if we don't wish for anything?

What is luck?

Something that happens after we deeply wish for it.
 So won't we be lucky if we don't wish for anything?

What is life?

Something that happens after we deeply want it.
 So haven't we lived our life if we hadn't done anything?

What is life?

Glimpses of the past lead me through memories of my twenty-one years of life.

Yet this one question still haunts me.

Perhaps everyone has asked it at some point. Or perhaps, for many, the time to ask it hasn't come yet.

What do we really need to live?

Food? Water? Or the value that society places upon us?

I never knew the saying, "Man is a social animal," would make so much sense one day.

But even then, I believe we should leave some mark on this world before we make our exit.

What is Machine Learning?

I believe ML, AI, DS stuffs like that are the booming fields in the 21st century. Everyone is running behind these things and cramming up some pgmg language( python, the most common victim) and then mugging up some ML algorithms which are actually all math. All hoping to end up in some very high paying jobs at google, fb etc and not minding the original dream or aim of the subject.

What actually is Machine Learning?
It is just making the machine learn. Generally, It can be supervised,( you show things to the machine and teach it). The machine learning algorithm inside the machine hears all we say and frame something in its mind (a set of decisions). And then it tries to classify new inputs to produce corresponding outputs. It can be unsupervised in which we don't tell the machine and the algo automatically tries to classify or separate the inputs to trace/find out a pattern in which the input data might be spread.  (Ex. classification)

("Machine" is the computer which is having ML algo in it)
Hello, World!

I'll probably be dumping all the random stuff I come across here over the next few days. Well... it's my blog. That's exactly what it's for. ;)

Right now I'm completely clueless about what to do this vacation.

I'm at NIT Calicut for a summer research internship, supposedly working on video processing algorithm development. The funny part? I think I reasonably oversold myself (or is it my insecurity speaking?), and somehow managed to convince people that I knew what I was doing. XD

Now I have just one month left to actually learn machine learning, Python, and all the other things I confidently claimed I already knew. Why, God... why? (-_-)

I don't know who you are, but I'm guessing you were stalking my Facebook profile (haha), clicked a random link, and somehow ended up here expecting serious science content.

Sorry to disappoint you.

Back in high school I used to make science memes, and I've been thinking about bringing that back. Maybe I will. Maybe I won't. Let's see.

Anyway, this blog exists mostly for me. If I write something here every day-even if it's just a few lines about what I did-maybe it'll stop me from slacking off and actually make me get some work done.

If someone else enjoys reading it along the way, that's just a bonus.

Thanks for dropping by, you nosy little internet stranger. ;)

I welcome you to my cosmos.

Whom should we listen to? - heart or head

This is a common question we all come across: there is often a deep clash between the thoughts from the head and the feelings from the heart...
