Truly, Mysore Doraiswamy Iyengar is a genius.

Most people can learn music..but to master it, takes genius.. No wonder, in Indian traditions..musicians are held ever so high in stature.. Nothing but classical music deserves the titles of ‘Pandit’ or ‘Vidwan’ or ‘Vidhushi’ bestowed on those who ‘re as gifted, committed and passionate enough to master it.

Back on Doraiswamy, I think you need to read what R K Narayan has to say about him. So true… Doraiswamy seems to have the bewildering ability to produce polynomial number of swaras in one pluck of the string.  And yeah.. It sounds almost as sophisticated as something like a Nadaswara or something..especially that he almost seems to mask away the ‘twang’ that’d be so characteristic of a stringed instrument like the veena.. In one word, simply prodigious.

Somebody raised the topic in the Devel lists already.. The speed improvements, et al seem great.. Nothing like it if this could go in to Drupal 6


Apart from valiantly trying to make something off my life,

August 25, 2007

There ‘re new things too.

  • Arbitrary Social network on Drupal running the usaul crappy profile pages, et al… and running 600 queries for the front page.. Nice eh.
  • New all encompassing portal for a random group of institutions.
  • Measles. The usaul Oscommerce work
  • My own PMS.. with cvs problems as usaul..duhh . and with an ass load of bugs too. Boring
  • The animal care ngo still remains
  • This guy still dint get his data entry done.

Otherwise, getting addicted to Doraiswamy Iyengar’s Raga Ratna Malikache…and phone convos on linguistics, phonetics, Philosophy and whatever else with arbitrary people.

I am a believer in mystic sciencies / arts (which I believe astrology is)..But That is positively hilarious :))
It can be very frustrating..especially when it starts intruding into your life and establishes control over all your actions.


Very Interesting.

$_GET['WTF??']

And yeah, I think that’ll only create a new process and not a new thread. But a pretty novel idea nonetheless..Not really worth being WTFed about at all.

What are worth a WTF afterall are actually some of the comments there.

BTW, One of those regarding command line PHP is hilarious :))


Where’s life heading to?

August 20, 2007

24 Months and more of trauma and there’s been only this single consolation all through..Life now forks out. The 4L headache is done or so it seems..God be praised..But all it invokes is a “ayyoo..sumne anyaya”.

Coming to her..She’s been the only lease of life, Apart from the computer thats kept me alive all this long..But not really ideal is she…I’ve other soulmates I can xmlrpc to too…Life evens out..after all.
