VTU Wars--The Final Mayhem

This is more like me and prav talking.Seven battles we've fought unarmed but fearless and gallant.We have been weak at brains but never at will.We have rode unto every battle with undemeaning chivalry.
The final battle marking the end of the war.We have never foreseen the unseen and never have vexed our minds.

But maybe this time we needed to Walk Tall ,see ourselves Broad Shouldered marching out of the battlefield.
Unfazed by the strength or weakness by our enemies,We the Brotherhood stood one.
For the last time we hailed,We shall not give in,today is the day we stand,today is the day we fight,today we celebrate our freedom.--Freedom from the shackles of daunting books and papers.

    Dude, this inspired in me the old war memories..
    The war cries, the battle shod spartan accompaniments, the pep speeches, those who stood to fight with us..

Day 20 Google APIs, Google Application Default Credentials

Searching for objects attribute value, it has to be Datastore . Remember that BigTable, you can only search by key.  High-throughput writes of wide-column data. Well, that is BigTable , right, because it's supporting high-throughput writes.  Warehousing structured data. So what's the data warehouse technology on Google Cloud? That's, which one, BigQuery .  To create and test new machine learning methods. Well, if you're writing new machine learning methods, then TensorFlow .  Develop Big Data algorithms interactively in Python.Well, interactive development in Python is done best with Datalab .   Well, interactive No-ops, custom machine learning applications at scale. No-ops ML at scale, then that's a role for Cloud ML.  Automatically reject inappropriate image content. Rejecting image content where it is inappropriate. Well, that could be the Vision API. So you could use a Vision API to basically see if this is safe content or not safe content.

Day 8 - Microsoft AI | Arduino Robotic Kit

Arduino Robotic Kit https://photos.app.goo.gl/Ng6MmaRnxHHWUHpJ6 Just got my Arduino robotic kit , quite excited :-) , Let us start exploring the various components. HC SR 04 Ultrasonic Ranging Module https://www.mouser.com/ds/2/813/HCSR04-1022824.pdf HC - SR04 provides 2cm - 400cm non-contact measurement function, the ranging accuracy can reach to 3mm Vcc , Trigger , Echo n Ground  You only need to supply a short 10uS pulse to the trigger input to start the ranging, and then the module will send out an 8 cycle burst of ultrasound at 40 kHz and raise its echo. The Echo is a distance object that is pulse width and the range in proportion https://randomnerdtutorials.com/complete-guide-for-ultrasonic-sensor-hc-sr04/ https://www.arduino.cc/en/Reference/Libraries https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6F1B_N6LuKw

Moment to Ignite

I know what you're thinking.It's nothing like that , it's infact the good ol friendship stuff. If i write explicitly in the title no one would bother to read it. I remember my hindi sir telling it takes 2 hours to write something and 2 days to give an apt title. In this modern era there is only one thing that interests everyone controversies, gossip ,all the masala put in together.Anyways I'm deviating a lot. How do you make friends? I might have asked this earlier...take it as a refresher... Yeah yeah i know i know....you cant make friends, you become friends.But again how?? Most of you will be like, whose bothered how now that we are friends.Put aside similar interests,likings , all the rational logical astute observations.Could it be some kind of destiny thing.It hardly sounds like me but then i have changed over time,I have started keeping my views open to every single possibility. Let me put a more real situation, what if you knew each other all the way a

Helplessness

So we had no project and to add the to misery no jobs.We were told by our placement dept tht our dept so called MEDICAL ELECTRONICS wasn't allowed by most of the companies. We all wer dejected as all of us had worked hard and wanted to get some job.I tht why sit n crib all time when u have so much time to enjoy. So i hit wit my family to Rajasthan.It was a nice but extremely hectic trip for me. We went by flight to jaipur then next day jodhpur by bus the same day udaipur by bus ,whr i came to know tht companies wer allowing us n the placement dept scammed us. So next day we left frm udaipur to mumbai  by train n then the same day to bangalore by bus. In 5 days i had spanned across 5 states. I rechd bangalore and had accenture next day so went thro the placement bible RS Aggarwal. Sadly i didn't clear then i sat for HCL which again i didn't clear so i was amidst doubt within myself. But still i didn't lose hope n worked harder.
