Stephen Hawking - A memory on Pi Day

Image
#OTD Remembering one of the greatest scientific thinkers of all time. Legends like Stephen William Hawking come only once in a century. Born in Oxford in 1942, exactly 300 years after Galileo's demise, Hawking went on to pursue his graduate studies at Cambridge. When only twenty he was, he became diagnosed with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) or more commonly known in the UK as Motor Neurone Disease. Hawking worked primarily in the field of general relativity and particularly on the physics of black holes. His ideas about our universe were inspired. He held Newton's chair as Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge. He also received an Honorary Doctor of Science degree from Cambridge University and was included as a Companion of Honour.  The brilliant mind of Stephen Hawking left us on 14.03.2018 (also known as Pi Day). He has forever only tried to link the two biggest theories of physics: general relativity and quantum mechanics, which he would call by ...

And no matter how aesthetically or prolifically you design, it can never meet to be the best for every HR that it meets and is bound to be subject to negotiable remarks for certain aspects of it might feel revolting, while certain so very exaggerating for the recruiter.

Therefore, let me allow you to help surf through these considerations and build a prototype for what you might call a nearly perfect resume.  Format : Your resume must look formal. That's it. Formal is the word. It must not look like a scrapbook or an engineering encyclopedia. It must be very strictly maintained that the font is properly readable and the text is aligned with respect t...

Suddenly, Someone: The Novel (Chapter 1)

Chapter 1 The Old Man in the Train   “This world will only ever be a place to live in.”, my father said to me, frowning and sitting on a chair outside the office room, while the aggregate of financial losses incurred by his start-up, brought upon by perfidious investors, was being calculated inside. Still do I so desperately wish to have understood the crucial insinuation those words could have carried, no later than that day, and certainly not as late as after the complicated happenings I am going to narrate herein.    I would usually not call myself what a sceptical man would exhibit, but it is veracious that I have remained a little too dubious with jobs. After a delicate practice in the field of newspaper editing and article formulations, I saw myself in an internship as an assistant designer on a three-month project with Mr. Fridges Brietner, an entrepreneur who dealt his finances in textile and share markets. I would say the contract produced...
