Child of death and mediocrity

So here goes.. It's never too late to bitch about my time in tcs. Venting out about that never gets old.

First off, they made my life miserable without any upside whatsoever with no regret. I know the guy who led me into that god forsaken trap was a psychopath and his name was Sam or Ram. I actually forgot, which is a good thing.

Apart from my team lead and three other personal friends I made. There was absolutely nothing in there for me. I had a fucking lunatic for a room mate, who said and I quote "I will burn your bed, in the night mofo." I was homeless, literally homeless for a week because of the short notice for relocation and no effort from tcs to provide us with any accommodation.

I still remember being totally out of my element, without a life raft, with out knowing the local language and not a single moron helped out if you spoke English. I had to cling on like a parasite to my Hindi speaking colleagues who at that time were spineless vermin. No exaggeration.

I had to break an employment contract, lie to the one person who was good to me, so that he will let me quit, lose more than 100,000 bucks if my own money. Apart from the measly income that I got and suffer through two months of notice period and still work 18 hours on my last workin day. So I don't care if you forgive me if I say. Tcs literally is the unholy child of death and mediocrity.

Mundasupatti - a fun movie

I saw a movie the other day called Mundasupatti, I’m sure you’ve heard of it if you’re in Tamil Nadu. It was funny, they took a simple superstition which is around and made a fun movie out of it. It was a period film, exploring the 70’s of rural India. I was instantly reminded of swades, a great hindi film which again explores the development gap between cities and villages, it goes a bit further to compare development as seen by an Indian NASA engineer and his old house-hold nanny’s village.  While Swades was a serious film about self empowerment and braking society’s rules about casteism and encouraging education, Mundasupatti is just a funny movie about how stupid, people are.  The movie revolves around a village after which the film is named, the people in the village believe that taking a photograph causes people to get sick and die. The movie did a faithful representation of the rural India, with its proud people and crazy traditions which make no sense. People...

Apache Nutch-Solr Integration

Apache Nutch-Solr Integration   As of this writing, I am using Solr 4.8.0 and Nutch 1.8.0 binaries for the integration. Will catch up to later versions as and when my project requires. We can cover installation and operation of Solr and Nutch separately and then talk about the integration. the version of Nutch that I am using is very closely built with Solr and the integration is very simple. For simplicity sake, Ill stick to Linux environment for both as Nutch does not operate in windows natively. Getting Solr to work 1. All you need to for Solr to work are the binaries. you can get them from their  official page  (version 4.8.0) 2.
