Teleportation Protocol

From Star Wars to Stargate Atlantis all of the Sci-Fi movies/tv serial has always painted a future where the mode of transportation is the uber cool teleportation device/warp gate etc. etc.

So lets have a look at the so called teleportation device and ponder a bit if our current technology can actually be used in it :P

Teleportation consists of 3 important steps,

1. Disassembling the subject into bits of information (packet formation),

2. Transporting the packets to the destination,

3. Reassembling of packets and reconstruction of the subject .

Looks simple but step 1 and 3 are still in infancy.

However step 2, is very similar to our current day data packet transfer from source to destination.

As a network engineer I am tempted to propose the use of UDP or TCP as the underlying protocol for the packet transfer, and then I am horrified with the thought what might happen if we use UDP...

illustrated below

TCP analysis for the next time :)

Non Veg vs. Veg

This is an age old topic on which human beings have fought over .. viz. should we consume non veg items like meat, egg etc. as in the process of consuming non veg items we kill an innocent life.

Well i won't dip my foot in this debatable subject, I will just post a small comic strip that flashed across my mind during one such heated discussion.

Recession Effect

Recession has shown it's ugly face last year and still continues to terrify everyone around the globe. Companies are taking strict measures to cut down the extra expenditure and minimize the losses. The Company I work for is no exception, Initially i.e. before recession there used to be free biscuits and diet coke lying around in the break out area waiting to be picked up. But now a days the biscuits have vanished in thin air and the coke is no longer free but chained with a 20 rupees price tag. And all the employees have made their truce with this fact , obviously who wants to loose his/her job over some stupid biscuit.

However something funny happened last friday, I was about to make a cup of coffee for myself and suddenly I realize that there were no sugar packets over there , and it so happened that on thrusday night I saw on television about the recent hike in price of sugar, I was terrified with the mere thought that the sugar packets might face the same plight as the biscuits. However proving my fears unnecessary, the sugar packet repository was soon replenished. :)

Learning to drive 2

Writing about others in your blog can cause you a lot of trouble, for instance when 'S' from the previous strip saw my yesterday's post, she was furious that I wrote bad about her. :(

However she is a cool person, after 5 minutes her question was , 'Where is my CAR , it's not fair that only you get to drive a fancy car'. So as a tribute to her, here is the new strip dedicated to her.

Co-incidentally this is how 'S' learnt driving :)

Learning to drive..

This afternoon I was having a discussion with one of my colleagues regarding driving a four wheeler, unfortunately I am yet to learn how to drive one .. and the discussion boiled down to the fact what will motivate me to learn driving on first place. Considering the fact I already know how to drive a bike and will soon own a cool bike, it seems very unlikely that my drive to learn driving will be anywhere near normal.

Before I go any further I must say my colleague has a bad habit of correcting others, and fails to understand the fact that people don't like to be corrected all the time. So cooking up all the facts and adding a touch of my imagination I came with the following cartoon strip.. hope you will enjoy it :)

Cya guys around.

Drawing after Office Hours..

It Seems 'Art' is in the air .. not only me, a lot of my friends are drawing these days .. One of my office colleague drew a picture of Naruto on her white board, inspired by it, I thought of taking a shot at drawing cartoon/anime characters.

After 6 years I am picking up pencil and eraser so please don't expect a lot :P

here's the picture of sesshomaru I drew
