robots are getting faster, literally.

^ Page-Scanning robot reads faster than you.

Do you consider yourself a fast reader? If so, how long does it take you to read a book? 2 days? Good for you but that’s nothing compared to the BFS-Auto book-scanning robot. It can handle 250 pages in a minute. That’s fast even for a machine. It’s just epic when you imagine how they could make widespread book digitization a reality and deal with entire libraries in a matter of days. I wish this technology is available to consumers before my graduation (2015) so that the robot could read the text to me.

Wonder what this technology could lead to? Check out this video.

Federer after loss "Usually you learn more when you lose, just in the sense that you analyse losses harder, deeper at times. That's where you learn a lot about your game, about your attitude, about your fitness... Not always. Sometimes you just walk away and you forget about it."

it feels like nature is much more imaginative than human imagination.

Mangalyaan ("Mars-craft") | Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM)

Destination: Mars

India is now well on its way to having an interplanetary presence. The country has successfully launched the Mars Orbiter Mission, a reconnaissance satellite that will orbit the Martian atmosphere for elusive chemicals.

The integration of the five scientific instruments was completed at ISRO Satellite Centre, Bangalore, and the finished spacecraft was successfully launched from Sriharikotta on 5 November 2013.

India's space agency would be just the fourth to reach the planet -- a symbolic win over countries like China, whose interplanetary missions have fallen short.

.her

As time passed, I visited her less often. Eventually, I went an hour without thinking of her, then a few hours, then a day, then a week, then a month.

When I visit her profile now (yes, i don’t see her in person anymore), the sting isn’t as sharp. I am proud of her when she finds success in her ballet career, and I am sad for her when someone she knows isn't doing well.

Maybe she’s different now; I certainly am. Maybe she doesn’t get quiet when she gets upset, or she even bakes much better cookies (god I miss them). Maybe I don’t know her at all. That brief moment after waking was always the worst. That moment when I felt like the dream was reality — like maybe we never broke up at all.

But still, thinking of her reminds me that I am capable of love. It reminds me that when you truly care for another person, it never really goes away. You left me, but your scent still lingers.

Yup
