Murphy Rules : But Why?

Date : Nov3-4, 2006
Event : Code Olympics
Organizers : Anshu Jain, Bhuwan (Alumni ) from SAP Labs (Not aware who else has organized it).

Code Olympics was an event organized for the first time at IIIT-B. It's about developing an application within 24 hours without knowing any knowledge of implementation details. There were ideas that were given and some people chose their own ideas. It went with sleepless night and continued till the next day evening. It was fun since we got to learn lot of things in no time and more over developed an application without the know how of the technology before the start of the event.The excitement of doing the things without the knowledge gives the thrill.

Even we had participated and developed an mobile application for Professors to schedule the classes and talks. Because, the main challenge is there are too many speakers who keep visiting and the scheduled talk are not notified to each other in advance. The Professors can use this tool to get the schedule of classes and talks and come to know of free slots . So, that they can schedule the talk or class. It was good learn these things .But, when the demo started things went wrong and we were not able to execute it. We were given 3 chances...but whenever the judges came to take the demo, It did'nt work. slogging for day and night went in vain,but there was fun,excitement and lot of learning. It was like a kannada saying 'Holleyalli Hunchi Hannu Tolladante (washing a tamarind in river)' which means all your efforts went in vain. Another way of seeing this is it follows Murphy's Law, 'The bread always falls on the ground with the side where the butter has been applied'. Murphy Rules.. But, Why?.

One of my friend said even in industry it happens the same, whenever you want to show the client your application, it does'nt work. Its great to have the first hand experience before joining the industry. Wow..Murphy Rules..But ,Why?

Blind Followers

Today I received an sms saying that : Plz pass this sms to all your friends 5 year old baby requires AB+ve blood for open heart surgery. Contact xyz with abc number. please do not reject, our sms might help.

What will somebody do when they receive this message. They will forward it of course ..and who does'nt , life of a baby is at stake. But, how far is this true? I don't know, just blindly keep forwarding it and where it ends no body knows. Sometimes, I think its all false..because there are so many means to get the blood. There are blood banks, there is radio to air and there is online information available for the blood , there are friends....etc.One more thing is in these messages one thing is not clear, where that person is located. Is he/she a localite? No body knows, just keep forwarding because of humanitarian reasons. Thats it..

There are also sms and mails sent on the basis of God . Pass this message to 5 people, you will have luck , if you pass this to 10 you will get what you want and if you don't send something really bad is going to happen. And these mails and sms are sent by the highly educated people, which surprises me and for a moment it makes me to think should I forward it. It reminds of childhood days, where people used to distribute pamplets (again on the basis of God) and ask the people who read it to print and distribute 100 or 200 or 500 such pamplets. And, people used to follow it. Now, the same thing has taken over by technology in the form of mail and sms. If these all are going to come true, then everybody in this world would keep sending such mails and sms. Anyways, people are blind followers else blind faith won't exist. Sometimes I thank such mails/sms, since a friend who has'nt mailed you at all, will mail you seeing such messages. And, I had once sent a message to my friend saying that "Thanks for having blind faith, atleast you mailed me because of such message."
