Unjustified true beliefs

Some time ago, I wrote a blog about retiring before starting. A lot has changed since then, I spent 2 years in a different country. Upskilled in machine learning and data science. I am writing this because recently I joined the same company the one I quit 2.8 years ago.   I'm in a state where I'm confident about my technical capabilities, whether it be knowledge about my field, clarity on the core fundamentals or developing a technique to learn and absorb faster. The important thing which makes me valuable is unquenching curiosity about everything. How can I do things better (this is the question which keeps on revolving in my mind)?  relentlessly going after the thing I want, openness to make sacrifices and change things about me to achieve them. Learning from my mistakes and not repeating them. Thinking about how I can add value to any interaction. The meta-level learning is to be a valuable person, and I know that requires a lot of sacrifices. It should be beneficial for...

If you're reading this (and understand the content of my blogs), I assume you're at least in your twenties. That means you've already spent a significant amount on this planet. Your consciousness has taken a physical form in this universe and you have by your own experience or most common in today's time, vicariously (Through social media, TV, internet), have learned some rules of this universe. You have either willingly or unwillingly, consciously or unconsciously, learned many rules of nature, or rules of social conduct, customs and traditions of your family, society or even country. These rules, didn't became rules just like that, many people took actions and learned the effects of their actions, decided that those actions were either good or bad for them or for the society at large. Through rigorous empirical testing and experimenting with various ideas, philosophy and examples. Humans learned to some extent, what's right and wrong. This learning of the d...

You'll call me mad if I tell you, nothing matters. We, humans, are insignificant in front of the cosmos. The universe doesn't care what you think. And to top it off, you are nothing but empty space, because we are made of atoms and most of the atom is empty space, just a small nucleus and a gigantic void after that until you get to clouds of electrons (probabilistic) at different energy levels. The universe is expanding and eventually, our sun will run out of fuel and maybe explode, the nearest Andromeda galaxy will collide with our milky way galaxy after that. Furthermore, all other galaxies would be soo far from earth that the sky would be pitch black. Luckily we won't be there to see it. Nothing as we know it today will exist. Hence even our existence today doesn't matter. As Friedrich Nietzsche and Albert Camus said. We weren't created for any purpose, it's up to us to define our own purpose. I said in 2009 'The purpose of our life is t...

We imagine tragedy to be an insatiable pain arisen due to a horrible incident, yet our lives are filled with immense tragedy which we hide behind everyday living, in those facebook posts or those Instagram photos, It's a facade, I envy those who are truly happy, or can fake happiness well to themselves and the world. The recent reading of the book "The Monk who sold his Ferrari" hints that the path to enlightenment and true bliss is through a balanced growth of body, mind and soul. Yet many literary geniuses suggest that humans are addicted to tragedy. I write this during a vacation summer's night, comfortably in my blanket, peacefully in solitude, with properly satisfied hunger and feeling fully secure in my room. I am not sure what I am missing or owning which object in the world can ameliorate the quench I feel for this emptiness, please don't think I am depressed, I am actually quite happy at this moment, I have wonderful friends and family in a different c...

Why is India considered to be peaceful country? when it's history is drenched in blood and wars. from various kings like Ashoka and Aurangzabe fighting for land and glory. Followed by UK ruling over India draining it of it's wealth and resources for 200 years, after committing innumerable crimes, now they portray to be philanthropic  and altruistic and that's what America is doing after killing millions of red Indians and taking over their land, now it's called the land of opportunity and the most advanced country on earth. It's said history repeats itself, sure it does it's a wave, there are times of great unrest, great change, great wars and we have peace now because of those reasons. This peace is an illusion and it will only last until an artificial order is maintained where people who are actually suffering are made to believe and feel content with their lives (hence religion and jobs) or are fooled to think that their lives are in the natural order of...

Do you know about the law of diminishing returns in economics? or have you heard about the 10,000 hours law about how to be good in anything? Recently my blog has gone through a philosophical change. Actually, a lot of things has changed in my life, this blog is just a reflection of them, like my country of residence, the people I spend most of my time with, my habits, my friend circle, the culture around me, my ways of thinking, my recent experiences. All in all, there has been a significant growth in my personality which has brought me closer to the spiritual truth, if it even exists. Being a sceptic like Rene Descartes, I have decided to let go of all my knowledge or presumptions of things I know, and this blog will be a reflection of some things I assume can be true, but I would only accept them to be true if I fail to reject them (Ho = my knowledge gather over the course of 25 years). So, now to the heart of the problem, Logistic regression. It looks something...

Aaj raat ke andhere mein; kuch khwaab shor karthy hain, chahty hain; kalam se kagaz pe maktoob hojana, kambakt khamakha meri neend kharab karthy hain. Tanhai mein bhi aadat nahi hain; ab akelepan ki, khwaab aur kwahishe shor karti hain,fursat nahi hain, kabhi miljaun agar khud se toh puchenge, chal toh rahe hain rasthy pe, ja toh rahe hain aapni manzil tak, par tumhari chahat nahi hain, kyu chod ke chal diye; unhe jine chinta thi, kyu parayo mein ab humsafar dundthy ho, chalna hi agar zindagi hain toh sapne kyu hain, yaade kyu hain, khuda neh tootne ke liye toh nahi banaya hoga yeh dil, hum janthy hain khuda aisi galtiya nahi kartha, ab taswiro mhe dhundhty ho unhe jo zinda thy, kaash kuch aur waqt bita liya hota, aaj likhna toh main bhi chahata hoon mohabbat ke sher, par kya karu shabh hi nahi hain, kuch sikha hain agar galib se toh yeh, chahe duniya samjhe ya na samjhe, likhna toh hain.
