Long lost art thou in paths of indecision,
Forest of thoughts doth block thy glimmer,
Soft whisphers passeth through like breezes,
Abysmal ventures dost thou seeketh through the night.
O lord almighty!
Bestow upon me thy blessing I seeketh,
For only thy grace shall lift me from this plight.

Transistors, Quantum Tunneling & Computing (Part I)

As some say, ­­the greatest discovery to mankind has been fire. Well, you may argue it might be penicillin or fungus in general. However, in the current age of technology, something that is precious to people more than anything is semiconductors, more precisely, transistors. Whenever you hear the word ‘transistor’, you may picture an IC or an electrical component with three pins hanging out of it. You are not wrong. Transistors are the heart of today’s technological advancement. Since its inception in 1947, its development has significantly shaped how we see and perceive the world today. Numerous medical advancements, and military developments, from your light bulbs to the nukes, anything electronic you associate today with, may have a transistor. Talk about the numbers? Well, you might just have a few billion on the top of your palms and even more on top of your lap. Since the development of the first microprocessor in 1968, the growth of the chip industry has been exponential. By...

Understanding Power: An attempt at defining it.

  Since the beginning of recorded history, there have always been multiple struggles and conflicts to find an establishment of position or authority in any existing hierarchy. Wars have been waged; people have been killed. Not just people, moving back in time, even around 54000 years ago, it was Homo sapiens that played a significant role in erasing Neanderthals from existence as soon as the early humans spread across the world, from Africa. Even though the former had superiority when it came to physical strength, the latter still came to thrive and ultimately erase them from existence. This was mainly thanks to the use of the then-advanced weaponry of bows and arrows. To make it more contextual, bows and arrows handed them ‘power’ over a physically more powerful species. The answer to any sort of power struggle has always been ‘ War ’. But why wars? Well, the answer to that might be trickier as we dig down as to what exactly is “ Power ”? You see, ‘Power’, the term itself is a s...
