Typically sunday nights go the same way, have dinner with a friend, go for a long walk, but today was different, atleast for the part where we rode the YULU electric mini-bikes. YULU electric bikes have been around for a long time now, atleast here in Banglore, I have seen many around. Last week, me and my friend, we were discussing how cool it would be to ride on one of these bikes, and voila these week we finally tried it. As a side note, I do not have two wheeler license, and you do not need one to ride one of these bikes. These are considered similar to a bicycle, except that this thing has an electric motor.   Picture of the YULU electric mini bike It's really easy to use these bikes. YULU has an app on Android and iOS, once logged, it asks to make a refundable deposit of 199 INR. Once done, we have to locate the nearest YULU station and go there to get the bike. Once at the station or near a bike, just scan the QR on the bike, and enjoy. The timer starts on the app when the

My Journey in Coding I have been learning how to write code in various languages for almost a decade now. I started writing code when I was in 8th grade and first got my hands on HTML language. We were taught basic HTML principles and syntax, but I didn't stop there, I was curious to learn how to beautify the plain text webpage, so I ended up learning CSS . Then slowly I wondered how I could add buttons and add functionality to them, so I ended up learning Javascript . Curiosity is the only way that will pave way into the beautiful land of coding. DOOM 1: Old game, that made me curious about the programming of computer games Roadrash: Another game that made me curious about the programming   I love computer games like many other people do. Whenever I sat down to play games, I thought to myself about how the game could be programmed, how can us humans make computers understand these entertaining and engaging piece of software. Internet is the best resource available to learn all

I have been using Arch Linux  for a few years now and it's been awesome since I last changed from ..... ( I don't remember my last distro)... I have tried almost every linux distro, Debian, Ubuntu, Manjaro you name it. I had been seeing a lot of Linux enthusiasts using Arch and I thought of trying it too. I had just started using awesomewm as my Window Manager and they go hand in hand perfectly, so I gave it a shot. I know the first word that pops into your mind when mentioning Arch, and that's its "DIFFICULT".  Let me tell you "IT'S NOT", I mean not exactly...but those who are comfortable with Manjaro, it's perfect for them ArchLinux logo Intro So the easiest path for opting Arch Linux (like I did) is to go through every linux distro (Distro Hopping) and see which fits best for you. Let me now move over to the qualities which makes Arch Linux the best.  Features  The best feature that's wo

I recently participated in the inter-college fest SAMYOGA conducted by JAIN (Deemed-to-be University), Jayanagar Campus for the two events, Battle of Bands (BOB) and Solo Instrumental . For the BOB, we chose to play the three songs, Love is a long road - Tom Petty You give love a bad name - Bon Jovi Rock you like a hurricane - Scorpions  Many participants from different colleges had come to participate in these events. Almost all the colleges performed really well in BOB. We got the third slot to perform, and I feel that we performed really well. No fault whatsoever this time, no change in tempo, no mess-up by anyone from the team. Here is a little glimpse of the performance.   The BOB and solo instrumental event had a clash in timings, due to the poor time management by the coordinators of the event. Added to this, there was only one drum kit in the venue. This was a problem because both the events started simultaneously, and all the participants of the solo instrumental event bro
