Asimov says

I am not a speed reader. I am a speed understander.

I do not fear computers. I fear the lack of them.

If my doctor told me I had only six minutes to live, I wouldn't brood. I'd type a little faster.

Monotony

There was a young man who said, 'Damn
It appears to me I am
A being which moves
In predestined grooves
Not a bus, not a car, but a tram'

Q is for Quantum.
There is no certainty of finding a vlan, only a probability.

He who does not foolishly affect to be above humanity's mistakes, will not be mortified when it is proved that he is but just a man.

Sheldon won an Emmy.

I must say I am very pleased.

This feels great

We ACTUALLY found an instance of the Birthday paradox today. In a seminar here at the office. I'd been wanting to do it for ages.

Never never never forget

A description of current->thoughts

The universe may
Be as old as they say
It wouldn't be missed
If it did not exist

-Piet Hein

[We've met Piet Hein before]

God must be merciful.

For he knew that I will never take my (enormously) lazy ass to a rock concert, he sent the rock concert to me. Prasoon (who is also my colleague) and his band Ashwamedh performed at our terrace today. I thoroughly enjoyed it. A big Thanks to the Ashwamedh guys.

By the way I couldn't help noticing the huge amount of electronic gear a modern band has to operate. In addition to musical talents (which I don' have) they probably also require a degree in electronics (which I have neither). I also caught some of the terminology; reverb, base and so on. Maybe I will feel less lost in 'rock-type-people' now.

Enjoy!!
