Balanced software architecture
Humanity is facing unprecedented challenges of climate change, violence, wars, diseases, etc. One of the reasons is development not in unison with universal rules and facts. In physics there are fundamental forces around gravity, atom, electricity, fusion/fission, energy, thermodynamics, quantum, etc. All physical things are quantified using mathematics. If our development is in unison with…… Continue reading Balanced software architecture
Reasonably right decisions – Humanoid framework for AI
I have a perplexing philosophical question. Currently by using our intelligence and common sense we are able to reach reasonable security. Buy authentic, check promoters/owners, check architecture, feedback, surf, read, sites, notes, work, code, etc, this gets us to a reasonably right decision. But technology is exploding. Beyond a point of complexity we won’t be able…… Continue reading Reasonably right decisions – Humanoid framework for AI
Software memories
Many people around us work in tough situations and professions like defense, police, offshore oil rigs, etc. We should have a project where we download their thoughts onto a computer like backup of computer. If they pass away their family will miss them, we cant bring them back but we can definitely give them a…… Continue reading Software memories

Truth in these systems may or may not be exactly the same version or even be fully/partially right in all/few/one system. We have search across systems but we don’t have…… Continue reading One version of truth
Race to be leaner, lighter, faster – limits will hit us
Whether jet engines, aircrafts, IT outsourcing, manufacturing or services there is a race to be leaner, faster, better, higher quality, etc with lesser resources – humans or machines or steel or fibre. In itself its an oxymoron or irony though not always. It actually stops innovation at times. Let us look how: Innovation and peak…… Continue reading Race to be leaner, lighter, faster – limits will hit us
