The mathematics I have been taught throughout my life all comes down to this calculation and car is just a symbol of any over spending, at last take the philosophy out without jotting the blue line. Also if you got a logically better deal feel free to comment. So the mathematics run down like this : Most common commute: from home to office/college/any place Number of days: 5 (out of 7 days) Car travel: 5*4 = 20 = 20 days per month Average cost of Uber/Ola (to and fro) = INR 300 (assuming INR 150 for one-time) Monthly cost = INR 300*20 = INR 6,000 Yearly cost = INR 6,000*12 = INR 72,000 Now, the cost of the car (assume on-road price with taxes and everything) = INR 6,50,000 How many years do you need to drive by Uber/Ola to have it MORE EXPENSIVE than buying a car? No. of years = 6,50,000/72,000 = approximately 9 years But, let’s take it as 7 years (since the prices are going to increase every year due to inflation). Now, what if you put the same INR 6,50,00...

Why GDPR IS A GIFT TO GOOGLE’S COMPETITORS Google has taken some hits this week. First, news broke of Google’s $170 million settlement with the FTC and the New York attorney general. The settlement centers around allegations that YouTube collected data on and served targeted ads to children, without parental consent. Then, reports surfaced that a group of 30 state attorney generals will announce a new coordinated antitrust probe of Google on September 9. But despite the seriousness of these reports, neither are the biggest of Google’s concerns right now. What should be most concerning to Google is that its direct competitors—many of whom lack the resources to compete head-to-head with Google—have found a new tool for weakening the tech giant’s position: GDPR. Brave, the company behind the privacy-focused Brave Browser, released a report documenting an investigation it commissioned into Google’s DoubleClick/Authorized Buyers ad system. For context, the ad syst...
M.A.B.R.O.V - Mechanism of Automated Braking of Vehicles
It is a mechanism proposed to control the maximum speed any 4 stroke IC engine powered vehicle can attain as per the safety limit criteria of any road. M.A.B.R.O.V is collectively a mechanism which is triggered when the vehicle enters into a range (road/ locality) where some maximum speed limit is predefined. What it mainly does can be broadly classified into these 3 fundamental steps – 1) It activates an anti-throttle to control the rotation of throttle and thus the amount of air going in the carburettor. 2)The fuel ignition mechanism is also under control to save the fuel consumed without loosing the engines performance. ...
Holography through TIR : Future of virtual reality
Holography as we all know is the method of displaying any object giving different views from different perspective primarily through a holographic plate, a bunch of lasers and some other laboratory conditions. This is exactly what a camera might have been fourty years ago with a photographic plate. Forget about the hundreds of pictures we click everyday even sending a photograph over a network would have felt like discussing time machine. But then photocell occured ( complementary metal – oxide – semiconductor (CMOS) specifically) and revolutionized the way we captures our moment. Now holography provides us with same engineering challenge, the way we capture the objects impression and the way we renders it. Total Internal Reflection is one solution to this and it also helps in digitalising the process i.e., now the object may not be at the same place where hologram is to be produced. It requires a new mechanical model and completely different working environment (operatin...
WATSON : The AI How about we could recognize every single person we meet, every documents we see, every music we hear or every voices we heard. Well it is assumingly impossible and mundane task to start with but what if someone could do this for you, someone who feeds on data and rely on memory but still can predict future (by deep learning and machine learning techniques oviously!). The highly efficient AI which takes it out of the box and make things happen. This can be your true bosswel and can keep a track for you all over your network be it social or proffesional. The Complete Solutions of Life (CSoL) presents you with Watching And Tracking Software On Network or as we call it "WATSON" .
