Life is like Recursion

Spoiler Alert: This Post is a tad philosophical and uses a concept called Recursion which is a pre-requisite.

Well,let me tell you something, i feel completely randomized when i start off with some work,slowly the randomization increases just as the entropy of a system goes on increasing, till a certain point after which mostly,things start falling into place.Voila, it then clicked to me that Life is like Recursion you start off with many number of recursive calls and don't know what you will end up with,but still you work up all the possible steps but then finally something clicks aka the base case and then things start getting standardized instead of being randomized and then the steps that you thought were straying you off path were in fact leading to bigger things in life.

And the thought doesn't end there, smart people memoize the recursive calls i.e they tend to learn from their mistakes so the next time you take the call,you know the consequences exactly but then there are also people who try to re-invent the wheel and end up having lot of over heads in life not that they fail or jump off the well but then they take their own sweet time to get there or may be never.

There are various schools of thought over this topic and this Post is just a represenation of my thoughts which in no means is meant to influence any of the mortals.

PS : 1) Try Searching "Recursion" @ Google, that page is recursive as well, click on did you mean and then you would know.
2) Witty Line : How does M$ make saints out of Morons? Reply :What are the stats of the conversion Ratio ,must be way better than ours?
3) The Above PS was meant for a specific group/individual.If you don't get the joke, then well, it was intended to be so.

Notes@Work

Here at work, I never shut down my system since there is something or other that is pending and so the stats are :
"System Up Time: 20 Days, 4 Hours, 54 Minutes, 52 Seconds"

I move my desktop physically a lot hence just 20 days; now that I have found a decent location which is stable.I expect this to be around 40 days till the end of this month.

Sticky Notes do "stick" well. Around 2 months and it is still there on the wall very unlike the one's I had tried to simulate back in college.

Pool.. still pathetic at it, trying to improve but then that will take time and don't expect any Pankaj Advani type play from me though. (I have set highest standards in terms of being a true mediocre).


As a Final Note, @All Final Year's : Final Year here we come.Every year I don't wait for the academic year to start. It seems there is something with 4, maybe all are expecting some kind of a LEAP  :) .


PS:
1) No comments on weekends and rightly so,since i am at work all 7 days a week for last 1.5 months.
2) Too much Final in the Last Para.. what do you think?

Witty Kid @ Office

Posting after really long time but this one is a must share.

During a Recent HR Event by my Company which was themed around "Bring your Child to Work Day".

A small kid probably around 4-5 years of age was interacting with all his Father's Directs..(his Dad is a People's Manager with a team of around 6-7 Members) then suddenly one of them questions the kid "what does Dad do at work?".

Kid Replies,"Dad... takes the Lunch Box and Laptop.. then reads mails,attends meetings then goes to lunch with other members and comes back.. "

PS
1)My Verdict : "Yeah I am Loving It!!!!!!! Fun to be a Manager it seems :D.".
2) Kid gave the 101 on Being a Good Manager..
