Net Neutrality: Best Explaination

Posted by Abhishek Mundra 12:50 AM , No Comments
Net neutrality is an idea derived from how telephone lines have worked since the beginning of the 20th century. In case of a telephone lines, you can dial any number and connect to it. It does not matter if you are calling from operator A to operator B. It doesn't matter if you are calling a restaurant or a drug dealer: Most of the countries have rules that ask telecom operators to provide an unfiltered and unrestricted phone service.

When the internet started to take off in the 1980s and 1990s, there were no specific rules that asked that internet service provider (ISP) should follow the same principle. But, mostly because telecom operators were also ISPs, they adhered to the same principle. This principle is known as net neutrality. An ISP doesn't control the traffic that passes its servers. When a web user connects to a website or web service, he or she gets the same speed. Data rate for Youtube videos and Facebook photos is theoretically same. Some countries have rules that enforce net neutrality but most don't. Instead, the principle is followed because that is how it has always been. It is more of a norm than a law.

Actor Varun Pruthi created a video in which he tried to explain the concept of Net Neutrality in a simple yet awesome way.

Biggest Problems To Create A Product Company Like Google Or Dropbox Out Of India

Posted by Abhishek Mundra 5:41 AM , No Comments

  1. RBI - Reserve Bank of India, and it's absolutely ridiculous FEMA/FERA policies which actually blocks you from taking any financial decision which are much easier in other countries. You need huge funding, huge risks and open mindset to do such things. RBI still considers that IE is a standard web browser and if you are using Chrome/Firefox you are not web compliant !!! You can image how illiterate they are in terms of technology.

  2. Finance Mobs - Every venture capitalist or financers in India are mostly mobs, they will kill you for their return of money, VC outside India is way different then in India.

  3. Techie is slave - In Indian Business community, business owner means, not doing anything, hire slaves and not get into technical stuff of how to do things. This tendency leads people to go for only management as higher standard and not focus on technology.

  4. Backend Processing Hubs - Indian IT tech companies are not at all into products, they are all backend processing hubs charging US companies for per hour billing for absolutely mindless jobs. Most of them are only into maintenance and testing.

  5. Old Java - To my surprise whenever I visit any IT companies in India, they are still into EJB, Web Logic and all old Java which was new in year 2000.

  6. Enterprise Ego - everyone wants to work as Project Manager in an Enterprise Project, anything below Enterprise word is a huge disappointment for them. If you ask them would they prefer to work on JavaScript (which is a big topic in the industry), they feel ashamed. Developers should be open minded to use anything to build a great product.

  7. Little Knowledge - 90% of developers in India only have less 10% of knowledge about the technology that they are using.

10 Reasons Why Girls Prefer To Marry A Software Engineer Guy Nowadays



  1. A software engineer is less likely to cheat on you. This is because all the time he thinks why his code is not working.
  2. A software engineer knows how to fix complex problems with the minimum effort.
  3. A software engineer will listen to you very patiently because that is part of his daily routine.
  4. Free tech support 24 X 7

  8. A software engineer needs just a computer to keep himself engaged. You can take over the TV for however long you may want.
  9. A software engineer follows a test driven robust principle in his day to day life. What ever task you give him, he will test it, figure out a logic and implement it. Best part - he will never forget that logic and will apply the learning in his next task quite effectively.
  10. A software engineer knows how to perform repetitive tasks at precise intervals. Moreover, he finds a way to overcome repitation and monotony. Expect a roller coaster ride.


    Disclaimer: You can do whatever you want but never ask a software engineer why his code doesn't work. Never do that!

18 Things Indians Do Just For The Sake Of It Or Because Everyone Else Is Doing It

Posted by Abhishek Mundra 5:10 AM , No Comments



There are many things a lot of people in India do, only and only because others are also doing it and they don't really apply their own mind, they become part of the herd ! What are some of the examples for these kind of things?


  1. Every Indian bachelor wants to marry a fair girl.
  2. When the doorbell rings, a male or kid goes to open the door. But the female runs for her dupatta.
  3. Picking up/dropping a relative (Airport / Railway Station) is an important family affair.
  4. We thrive on street food and we don't get sick.
  5. Every Indian mother has 2 careers - Working / Housewife + Match Making.
  6. We have all had secret boyfriends / girlfriends. we dread getting caught by each others parents.
  7. Indian girls have 3 type of brothers. Real brother, Cousin brother, Rakhee brother.
  8. The bride must cry at her Vidai. She has no business looking happy.
  9. We go on cleaning sprees only during Diwali or when we have guests coming over.
  10. However old we are, our parents need to know every detail of our schedule. Daily. No excuses. No exemption.
  11. When Indian parents buy tickets, every child becomes under Getting a half ticket is a huge victory!
  12. If we live in another city and don't call our Mom daily , she’ll freak out and call all our friends to make sure we are alive.
  13. We get embarrassed in front of our parents even when the word “sex” is written on a Form to specify gender.
  14. No other nationality can beat Indians in bargaining. “Chalo bhaiya. Na tera na mera. Itne paise theek hain.”
  15. No matter if we are Convent educated. When we are actually angry, we switch to highly effective, dirty, swear words in our mother tongue.
  16. We spend more time talking to guests at the door when they are leaving than while sitting in the living room.
  17. Why to change the remote batteries when you can just slap the shit out of the remote and make it work?
  18. Meeting a person with the same surname is like finding a long lost twin.

10 Facts About Google That Will Blow Your Mind

Posted by Abhishek Mundra 2:25 AM , No Comments

  1. The famous www.google.com of today was once google.stanford.edu and z.stanford.edu, when it was in the testing phase and was working under the website of Stanford university.

  2. Google search is available on 181 international domains (such as .co.in for India)

  3. Google processes over 40,000 search queries every second on average, which translates to over 3.5 billion searches per day and 1.2 trillion searches per year worldwide.

  4. 20% of queries are new to Google every day.

  5. Google deals with more than 3 billion queries a day from all around the world returning results on an average of 0.25 seconds.

  6. It runs over 1 million computer servers in data centers around the world.

  7. Google provides the number for the Suicide Prevention Hotline in any country when presented with the search terms “i want to die.”

  8. Google makes changes to their search algorithm at an average of once every 17.5 hours

  9. ”Google” is added as a verb in the Oxford English Dictionary in June 2006.

  10. That an Indian was instrumental in the formation of Google.
Ram Shriram


So when Larry Page and Sergey Brin met at Stanford, they were just young twenty year olds with an idea of a search engine. They explained this idea to their professor who helped them meet some investors. A majority of them were not-so-impressed by this. Then, they stumbled upon this investor called Ram Shriram who also found it OK. But, he was impressed by their passion so without thinking much he handed them a cheque of 500,000 dollars.
Can you imagine the duo didn't even have a bank account at that time to deposit that cheque?

And then as they say “the rest is history".

Top 10 Movies With The Most Unpredictable Ending



1. The Prestige

When the movie ended I remember how I put aside my laptop and lay on my bed, staring at the ceiling for at least half an hour. All I could do was think about the movie, about its ending. Not to forget the final dialogue exchange between Fallon and Alfred Borden:

Alfred Borden: So, we go alone now. Both of us. Only I don't have as far to go as you. Go. You were right, I should have left him to his damn trick. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for a lot of things. I'm sorry about Sarah. I didn't mean to hurt her, I didn't. You go and live your life in full now, all right? You live for both of us. 
  
Fallon: Goodbye

This conversation wasn't a part of the ending but it pretty much captures the essence of the movie for me.

2. Memento

If you follow the entire movie, the end leaves you even more baffled, and reconsidering what you had thought in the entire movie, with the movie in itself being quite difficult to follow.


3. Kahaani

Its an Indian suspense movie. Well, throughout the movie you will make 50 predictions, but at last the suspense will be the 51st.




4. The Man from Earth

An impromptu goodbye party for Professor John Oldman becomes a mysterious interrogation after the retiring scholar reveals to his colleagues he never ages and has walked the earth for 14,000 years.
And this is just the beginning..as the movie progressed it blew my mind..!
Entire movie is just a conversation happening in one room...still one of the most mind-fucking movie I have ever seen...!

5. Mulholland Drive

What I admire about this film is the way in which the twist is handled. It happens a good 30 mins before the film actually ends. The director leaves you to draw your conclusions in these 30 mins & make any sense of what's happening.


6. The Shawshank Redemption

I never knew the ending, the first time I watched. A happy ending was expected, but never in a fashion Andy makes it.




7. Inception

A skilled extractor is offered a chance to regain his old life as payment for a task considered to be impossible.


8. Fight Club

An insomniac office worker looking for a way to change his life crosses paths with a devil-may-care soap maker and they form an underground fight club that evolves into something much, much more.



9. The Departed

An undercover state cop who has infiltrated an Irish gang and a mole in the police force working for the same mob race to track down and identify each other before being exposed to the enemy, after both sides realize their outfit has a rat.



10. Shutter Island

Drama set in 1954, U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels is investigating the disappearance of a murderess who escaped from a hospital for the criminally insane and is presumed to be hiding nearby.
