Academics to Corporate

So again there's a change. And such changes have been with me throughout the financial year i.e. from March 2015 to March 2016. Left SVMIT and joined (n)Code Solutions - A Division of GNFC Limited.

Left academics and joined the corporate world. I am yet to figure out whether I liked the academic field or this new corporate world. Both have their own pros and cons. But one thing that I'll surely miss from the academics is - My dear students.

Let's see what life has stored in for me.

PS: Back to Gandhinagar.

Engineering isn’t about perfect solu

I read this book whenever I'm short of time, but want to read. It is great. A small excerpt from the very first lesson of the book: We can fire a missile across the world with pinpoint accuracy, but we have trouble keeping a date with our children to go to the library. We have e-mail, fax machines and digital phones so that we can stay connected and yet we live in a time where human beings have never been less connected. We have lost touch with our humanity. We have lost touch with our purpose. We have lost sight of the things that matter the most. Isn't it worth pondering?
