Humans of today!

Hey there,

Good Morning dear readers!

Firstly I would like to thank my readers for visiting my blog and sparing time to read my posts! :)

As the new day dawned upon us and I sit here, some thoughts cross my mind, and I am just trying to pen them down here!

A few days back, some one alarmingly showed me a video in which there was a girl who was being beaten up by few men & women and was being burnt alive! I don't vouch for the credibility of the video but still, it was a very disturbing one! And there was a bunch of people around them. Some were watching with fear, some with pity and some were capturing the moments as a video on their gadgets! But no one stepped forward to stop this from happening or even to raise voice against the attack!

Well, we don't know the reason behind that attack but still, don't you think how inhumane this was? Why have we become living zombies walking around mechanically without being affected by anything except for one self!

Just imagine if no one ever fought for the country for its freedom or no one ever revealed their inventions publicly and kept it to themselves and there was no one to inspire and show us the way, How would the civilisation then have been?

With the advent of latest technologies, have we become lifeless gadgets too? Have we become prisoners to technology and gadgets? I don't say we don't need or should be against technology but human should drive the technology and not be driven by it!

These days people are so virtually busy and caught in a web of so called social networking where in the aim is to boast about one self or something rather than genuine intentions to create and maintain relationship and good rapport with the fellow beings!

Something trivial gets trending but no one still bothers about the 70 year old man sitting by the road 24*7 in the hot sun and the nights breeze! No one is bothered about extending a helping hand or even giving a smile or a pat back to the people they see! If this continues, we would have innumerable walls of china between every pair of people and the world would then be virtually partitioned in to trillions of pieces!

So what do we need to do? Just be human. Be sensitive to others feelings and needs as well, while loving yourself before loving anyone else! Let's all create a human world for the generations to come and not leave behind a land of zombies walking around lost in their gadgets!



I request all the parents and teachers of the new generation to concentrate on ethics and virtues too apart from the ranking in class and other activities! What say?

Here is the link to part-1: https://techspireme.blogspot.in/2018/04/basics-of-computers.html We have already read from part 1 that Software is a set of applications. Software is basically of two types: 1.

Hi, I am quite excited to start the technical part of my blog! I hope so are you! Let's start with the Abc of computers that we all find a bit hard to put in to words. These are my own definitions made really simple and easy to understand! Computer:   An electronic device that computes, stores, processes , manipulates and displays the data. Coined from the term "compute", means to calculate. Facts:  First ever computer was used for mathematical calculations. Founder: Charles Babbage - The Father of computers - invented the first ever mechanical computer called "Babbage's Analytical Engine"! Features of a Computer / Advantages of computer over a calculator: Speed, Accuracy, Storage, Multi tasking, Diligence (and many more). A computer comprises of Software and Hardware (all the physical - internal or external components/peripherals that are connected to or a part of computer ex.

Hey there, Lets talk about Information. Many a times we are not the first hand recipients of information. We receive information from someone or through the Internet or the media. Some of us are wise enough to ponder over the details received from any third or fourth party sources but most of us blindly believe in what comes around from Mr.XYZ and everyone around. A wise one would use his/her intellect and wisdom to ponder over that information and decide whether to trust and take it in or throw it out. That is what makes us different from animals. The power of thinking and intellect. To illustrate this, lets remind ourselves of this famous story of a fox. There was once a fox in a jungle. One day the fox accidentally slipped in to a deep well and was unable to get out of there. So it came up with an idea. As soon as it heard a sheep bleat, it started exclaiming very loud  "wow. This water is so tasty!".  Hearing this the sheep went close to the well and asked...
