Blink: Once you’ve mastered business, you can become a sophisticated investor

So you’ve started a business, and it’s going well. Now it’s time to use the income and the experience you’ve accumulated and take things to the next level. It’s time to become a sophisticated investor. As a sophisticated investor, you’ll take more control over management, corporate structure, investment decision making and taxes. The result? Maximized returns. Let’s look at a restaurant owned by Bill and Jane, two hard-working Americans. They operate as a sole proprietorship, which means that they have one income source. They pay normal, personal income tax and they are liable if anything goes wrong – like a sick customer filing a lawsuit. All their eggs are in one basket. No disrespect to Bill and Jane, but the sophisticated investor knows better. He would have two corporations: Bill would own the restaurant itself and Jane would own the building it’s in. This way, risk is spread. If a customer falls sick and sues the restaurant, the real estate is legally separate and protec

Test: Experiencing the Nexe project

Today I have tried my hands on Nexe . It's an open source project on Github  to create a single executable file out of node.js application. So here is my feedback. After building the node.js based app, we always question about how do we ship it. So basically, Nexe provides a solution for that. Since it packages together the complete node.js based app and converts the package into single standalone binary file, so that becomes very portable and easy to distribute. Well done guys! While executing the node.js based app for the first time, Nexe tries to download dependencies that take some time to download. Usually download can only take some time if the file is big or network speed is slow. Since my internet speed was pretty good at that time, so I believe the file must be heavy enough. Now to make it portable, it must embed the dependencies in the binary file otherwise it can't come out without any external dependencies attached to it. So I assume that it might emb

Blink: Computer programmers used to be women

Computer programmers used to be women until a report in the 1960s changed everything. What does a typical computer programmer look like? The first image that comes to mind is probably a nerdy-looking man who’s terrible in social situations but excellent at dealing with numbers. This stereotype, however, is in massive contrast to the reality of the early days of computing. During the first part of the twentieth century, working with computers was considered a clerical job – like typing or operating a switchboard – and thus deemed “women’s work.” In other words, the first computer programmers were women. In fact, the first program for a computer was written by Ada Lovelace in 1840. It should come as no surprise to learn that women programmed the first computer for the US Army during WWII. Or that rear admiral Grace Hopper – who held a PhD in mathematics – programmed Mark I, a computer at Harvard University which helped in the development of the atomic bombs that would be dropped

Bash: How to uninstall custom go package via shell script?

The Go command line tool do not provide package cleaning option. At max it can remove object files and cached files which will remove executable file from bin folder and from pkg folder. But the source files would still be there. So if you want to completely remove the package then you have to do it manually. Otherwise, create your own script to do this.  Alternatively, you can use below script. Just put it somewhere so that it could be globally accessible. Here is a shell script that can completely clean the go package that you have installed by using go get <package> command. File : goclean.sh #!/bin/env bash goclean() { local pkg=$1; shift || return 1 local ost local cnt local scr echo "Clean removes object files from package source directories (ignore error)" go clean -i $pkg echo "Set local variables" if [ "$(uname -m)" == "x86_64" ]; then ost="$(uname)"; o

Blink: Eight factors will combine to create the first trillion-dollar company.

The Four Horsemen – Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google – dominate not only our online experience but the whole corporate world. The Four have become the world’s most valuable companies. They’ve reached their success by appealing to our deep human desires while also engaging in some questionable practices. And while there’s no doubt they’ll be around for a while, at some point, one of Four might disappear, or a fifth horseman might arise. In the meantime, it’s best to learn how to thrive in the world they’ve created. The Four Horsemen dominate the world today. But might a fifth horseman emerge and unsaddle these other riders? If that were to happen, this fifth horseman could well become the first company with a market valuation of $1 trillion. According to the author, there are eight attributes that a fifth horseman would need to possess in order to become the first trillion-dollar company. Since “trillion” is the key word, he calls these combined attributes the T Algorithm

Ved: We are living in Dwaparyuga and moving towards Tretayuga in 64 years

As per Sadhguru the duration of yugas are Satyuga: 5184 years  Tretayuga: 3888 years  Dwaparyuga: 2592 years  Kaliyuga: 1296 years Since the Kaliyuga began after Lord Krishna's death that happened in 3102 BC. So Kaliyuga would be on peak at 1296 years after that, i.e., 1806 BC. After which it might declined and ended in 510 BC. From there onward, Dwaparyuga began which is still going on and will end in 2082 AD, i.e., after 64 years from now. Now I found it strange that nothing great is recorded in the duration of 3102-510 BC. In fact, researchers are suggesting that lot many natural calamities happened exactly 3800 years ago. Ironically that was the peak of Kaliyuga (Waxing crescent). Although after the Kaliyuga (Waning crescent) in 510 BC, we heard about Alexandar The Great (356 to 323 BC), Chandragupta Maurya (321 to 298 BC), Ashoka the Great (268 to 232 BC), Jesus Christ (4 BC to 36 AD), etc. All of them have contributed a lot and almost placed the founda
