About me

Things about me in no particular order.....

I am huge day dreamer.I day dream about all sorts of crazy things from killing terrorists who hijacked a plane and landing it safely to meeting Einstein to some day building a company bigger than Microsoft.It is almost crazy.Though I must say I have gotten a good hold of it now and avoid wasting my time day dreaming.That is the reason I am almost never get bored even if I am by myself for days.

I am the overlord of all forms of procrastination. I am so good at it that every time I have to start a little task - I start off by analyzing the purpose and meaning of life and how this little task fits into that big purpose and almost always the little tasks of paying bills and completing my code reviews never fit in the BIG scheme of life and almost always my tasks never get started or never get done.

I try to be funny all the time and probably am funny at least some of the times.I take it to a level that it is almost a fault because I have no problems laughing at myself or others laughing at me but unfortunately other people have problems when I make jokes and laugh at them.This has caused grief in the past and generally tends to situations where "serious" people don't take you seriously

I can NEVER keep a secret.I just have to tell the secrets to others!This has caused some grief in the past, so if you have a secret please don't tell me.

I am pretty sure I suffer from ADHD Predominantly Inattentive .My attention span is not more than 5 mins and especially if I don't enjoy the thing my attention is focused on.But I also truly believe going to a shrink to fix it is just a waste of my money

Reading up about how airplanes work and learning C Programming Language are in my opinion the only two things in my life in which I put my complete heart.

I liked physics and computer science when at school.I wish I liked Math better but always found it hard - I would like to put some of the blame for that on the education system :-). If you are a kid and not a genius then it is hard to understand something as abstract as math without relating it to real life and I can't remember one instance where anything but basic math was ever related to real world in the classes.

I like to believe that I am not egotistic (but my wife begs to differ :-) ). I have never had problems in dealing with almost anybody in my life.

I respect and worship competence in any field.period.I don't like people who try to put all sort of marketing fluff around their competence and I can't stand people who BS.

Einstein is my favorite hero of all times. I know squat about physics but still just understanding the basics of his work and how much radically different it was from the work of his predecessors and how beautifully it explained reality ,I think it is awesome.

I like programming but unfortunately I have never done any worthwhile programming worth mentioning.Maybe it is time to start

I would someday like to understand Computer Science, Math and Physics (especially quantum mechanics) in much more detail

Having a software start up of my own has been a long time dream on which I have made no progress.Again something hopefully I will get to during my remaining life.

I am not particularly excited about my current job.I do know there is a lot of potential for good work even at my current job but just I keep procrastinating it away.Something to improve on again.

I have no problems in talking about my flaws and short comings.

In my opinion my life has been more or less like Raymond's life in Everybody loves Raymond.Other people may beg to differ :-)

I am a socially awkward person if you know what I mean and I surely have scope for improvement in being more sensitive and empathetic towards others.Unfortunately I am not the type who remembers people's birthdays and anniversaries and sends them sweet cards for it.My wife is my mentor in this area so I will surely improve here.

I positively HATE phones of all types.I just am an anti phone person who will probably not pick 9 out of 10 calls.I need to force myself to even check voice messages.I hate phones that much.Luckily all my close friends are so used to me that they are hardly offended.
