The Trees of Palash

I always used to think why are there so many trees of Palash in my area? What's their purpose? They don't give any fruits and neither are they big enough for a proper shadow. So why are they everywhere?

Little did I know that the most interesting flowers that I would see for my own eyes would come from them. These boring, ugly, and abundant trees have flowers for about two weeks every spring. It fills the whole area with colors, and they are absolutely stunning. These flowers are so beautiful and rare that some consider them sacred.

I wanted to find a big metaphor for life, but my little brain could not find one. All that comes to my mind is, "Don't judge anyone based on their first appearance. You never know what they are capable of."

I could not unfortunately take beautiful pictures, still here is something that I took a day randomly.

The Art of Synchronisation

Merhaba takipçim. Çok memnun oldum ki şimdi bizim küçük soğuk Savaş bitti. Ve memnunum ki şimdi sana konuşabilirim. Iyi ki varsın 🤍. Bu blog Türkçede yazmak isterdim. Ama bu blog biraz teknik. Yani İngilizce kullanmak zorundayım. Üzgünüm 🙁. One of the biggest and most complicated challenges in computer science as well as science in general is the challenge of synchronisation. Weather its to synchronise data or to synchronise two events. To some extent, synchronising data is simpler, but synchronising two events is impossible. Two physical events happening in real life can never be synchronised. Its mathematically impossible. Why? Well its mathematically impossible for two values in the real world to be identical. For example let's take two stones which are exactly same weight, shape, size and material and drop them exactly from the same height. They will appear to be dropping at the same time but they are in fact not dropping at the same time. To prove this...

Facts and Opinions

In mathematics and sciences we geneally devide statements into two categories. facts and opinions. and a general concencus is that Facts are the statements which are always true, can be mathematically proven and are accepted as true, universally. One example of a fact is 1+1=2. Everyone agrees on this fact that adding one with another one will be two. This is such a simple example and a universal truth that people use it in sayings and converstations as example. What If I told you that this is still not a “Fact” ? In fact (no pun intended), In a book named “Principia Mathematic” two mathematicians proved that 1+1=2 and it took them 3 years, 350 Pages and it is one of the most complicated proofs out there. Still to prove this, they used a few “assumptions” which are considered universally accaptable facts, like if two values are 1 and 1, they are equal to each other, which are called “Axioms”. these are essentially opinions which are accepted by everyone. Long story Short, Th...

All language is but a poor translation

Recently I came across this Quote by Franz Kafka. “All Language is but a poor translation”. Or as I like to say it, “A language is nothing but a poor translation of feelings”. And the more I think about it, It makes more sense. On first thought, this idea seems conflicting. We made the languages, and every culture in the world should have perfected this skill to be able to express themselves completely, right? Well, Not really. I am fortunate enough to know more than one language and I can see this gap between languages where no one is really perfect to be able to express ourselves completely. Even with my native language, Urdu. There have been times when I have felt a certain way towards someone or towards myself and did not know how I could have expressed that. And I am sure you must have felt this way too. There are some things that just can not be expressed in the most perfect way that we would like to express them. No matter which language we use...
