Why did Vedic Mathematics originated?

What do you think, why did the vedic mathematics originated?

According to the popular beliefs related to Ancient people in Indian sub-continent that since they did not had access to paper or similar material where they can carry out long calculations. So they would require to carry out whole calculations mentally because any kind of calculating machines was out of question in those times.

Well the real reason is way beyond that, which is related to our saints and maharishis of those times. By studying the scriptures of ancient maharishis, we came to know that almost all the maharishis were like scientist and were great yogis.

In ancient India, maharishis used to separate their soul out of their body but still linked to their respective bodies using advanced yoga techniques that might be related to kundalini yoga or something similar.

Similar, soul-out-of-body concept was shown in the "Dr. Strange (2016)" movie that they called astral form.

Soul neither have mass like weight nor have any dimensions like width or height. So being a soul maharishis can go anywhere even inside atom or outside earth. There will be no physical limit.

Now suppose, if you were a soul and you got inside molecule then how would you manage to measure the size of it's atom. The measurement is relative, which means to measure the size of anything, you would require to compare it with its surrounding then by applying the geometrical theorems, you would be able to measure the size of targeted object.

For your ease, you could consider the movie, "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids (1989)" where Wayne Szalinski, the inventor tries his best to get his recent invention, a shrinking machine, to work. Things go awry when he accidentally shrinks his children and throws them along with the garbage.

The plot of this movie is very much related to the scenario we are discussing about like when those children became so small that even the ant seems to be size of elephant; in that situation consider measuring the height of those ants or grass they hopped without having a scale or inchtape. Well without having any instrument to measure it would become a lot much difficult task unless you know the Mathematics, in fact Trigonometry and Coordinate Geometry to be specific.

Anyways, being a soul you can not write anywhere. So how would you carry out complex calculations like:
  • Size of the atom
  • Speed of electron
  • Mass of nucleus 

Well it would be very difficult for any human being to memorize all the steps of calculations until you get the result, but if you have read vedic mathematics then you would know that it would be relatively much simpler using vedic mathematics.

Some of you might question that why didn't they return back to write their observations somewhere and then again go back as soul to observation. It would be difficult because, even for yogis this whole process takes time. So going back and forth would be out of question.

Thus, they would have to devise mental mathematics techniques to acheive their respective goals.
Now we call that 'Vedic Mathematics', after sadguru sankaracharya first wrote it down in the form of book.

Unlock protected blocks in Siemens SIMATIC Step 7

Recently I'd been called by Hindalco's Fabrication Plant division to unlock the protected blocks in Siemens SIMATIC Step 7. They were in need to unlock those blocks since an year because of 1 million Rupees of loss per month. They want to re-program those blocks but it was locked by the man who'd done the setup. From the people working in that department, I came to know that they were trying to call that man (someone from Italy) right here but he's not coming. Actually, what he'd done was that he'd locked some of the blocks and deleted the source file. And Siemens didn't provide any feature to unlock. Department people also told me that even the people working in Siemens don't know how to do it. Being a software engineer I know that any thing can be reverse engineered. So I took up the challenge. How did I unlocked the blocks? The first thing I'd done was searched about this software at Google and read about what is this software all about. Aft

App: Calculate your job experience or age in years

Usually, all of those who works have to put years of experience on their resume or curriculum vitae. But 90% people put it wrong when they convert their experience in years only. Although they know the exact number of months and years but the conversion, they do is wrong. This happens because there are 12 months while the digit after decimal would be 0-9, i.e., 10 digits. Which means that we have to represent the number of months in terms of year. So here I have provided a small gadget to calculate it. Just put the date when you had started working in the From Date field and put current date in the To Date field. You can also calculate your age as well with this tool by putting your date of birth in the From Date field and put current date in the To Date field. As an alternative, you can use the hassle-free and simple to use  Date Differentiator  micro webapp. Bookmark it so you may easily access it later.

How to convert JIRA story into sub-task or defect?

Many times we entangled in the situation where we have made a  story  in JIRA but later on realised that it should have to be  defect  or in other case,  sub-task  of another  story . Story → Sub-task So the workaround for converting the story into defect is given below: Open your  story Click on  more  option Click on the  Convert to sub-task  option in the dropdown You would be asked to choose  Parent  story, so chose relevant story After submit, your  story  gets converted into  sub-task Story → Defect Now if you want the story to be converted into defect, then you should first convert it into sub-task. Thereafter, you can convert that sub-task into defect as given below: Open the  sub-task Click on  more  option Click on the  Convert to issue  option in the dropdown You would be asked to fill up relevant fields required for raising a  defect , fill them up as required After submit, your  sub-task  gets converted into  defect .
