Name in IPA: /əʊvɪ.ʃeɪk pɔɪ.rə/ I'm 25 years old, male, postgraduate student of Computer Science in India. I Love GNU (গ্নু), free (স্বাধীন) Software[0], Mathematics and fountain pens. I aspire to be hacker[1] and good human being. Majority of my posts concern gnu, free software, and about software I use in my day to day life. Occasionally I post about fountain pens and very rarely I post about mathematics. Sometimes, I also post in Bengali language with multiple spelling mistakes. If you don't have much appreciation for gnu or free software, you'll find me a GNUisance. I recommend you don't follow me in that case.

After seeing my handcrafted code turned into slop by my group members, I&#39;ll be reading Friedman&#39;s Essential&#39;s of Programming Languages for a while.

I have a friend who&#39;s into web development. In the early days when we met, he would make bloated websites that would send a lot of javascript, and ask me to checkout his site. I would always open the site with JS disabled, and show him how broken his site is. Today, he again asked me to check out his site. And, again I opened it JS disabled. But, this time to my surprise, the site not only looked great but was also almost completely functional! He told me, &quot;I knew you&#...

Is there any software that tests read/write speed of a HDD without destroying pre-existing data in the disk?

I wonder if the various marriage acts in India can be overridden or modified by signing a contract by the people marrying. For instance, Hindu marriage act currently doesn&#39;t support no fault divorce, I wonder if the people marrying can sign a contract that says they will agree to a no fault divorce. Will it be upheld in court later?

I want to see a cool science experiment. The other day I saw a video where someone made some dirty water, and put it under the microscope to show microbes moving around. And then, he boiled the water for one minute, and put the water again under microscope, showing most of the microbes were dead. All the while, really cool music was playing in the background. Loved that video! https://youtu.be/lOEOQ9ChRXc
