A friend passed away recently during sleep due to unknown natural causes when they were all alone in a hotel in a foreign country. I couldn't dismiss the thought that may be if they had worn a smart watch they could have had better chances of reaching out for help and perhaps even got alerted of some discrepancies in their vitals. There's no dearth of smart watches in the market offering health monitoring solutions but Apple Watch has been leading the pack in terms of accuracy of heart-rate, ...| Abishek Muthian
If I have to restart my modem often like a caveman, I'll at least automate it. Years ago I would have pitied the soul which had to restart their Internet modem often, Now I'm in the situation where the ISP seems to have not heard about network reliability and so my modem hangs at least once per day. My modem is completely managed by the ISP and so there are no useful options for me to fix the issue.| Abishek Muthian

I suffer from chronic lower back pain, Since I don't consume opioids I find exercises 1 to be the best pain management technique. In addition to the specific exercises for managing back pain, Not sitting for long durations seems to be the key factor for me to not trigger the back pain.

I'm migrating a project from PostgreSQL to SQLite. There's nothing wrong with PostgreSQL, It's the best RDBMS; period. I'm just building a product where the benefits of the portability, performance seem to outweigh the quirks of SQLite; At-least that's what I think. Btw, I learnt couple of days back that SQLite is not 'SQL Light' but S.Q.L.-ite although the developer Richard Hipp doesn't seem to mind how its pronounced. I've used SQLite plenty of times during my mobile app development days an...| Abishek Muthian
It's been known for a while that depression can cause us to not remember finer details of an past event (or) even cause forgetfulness of future events. But while depressed, We have no dearth of negative thoughts and memories i.e. Rumination. Since rumination weakens our cognitive control it could also cause issues with our memory. This is my third part in my series about mental health after Demand evidence to worry, The common theme is focus and this time I'm writing about memory.| Abishek Muthian
Meditation, Mindfulness, Flow etc. The common theme seems to be 'Focus'. Focus is a key component for mental health, Yet it has been made very expensive thanks to constant assault on our senses by the corporations who would then sell their 'Mindfulness' app back to us.

I walked by the living room other day and there was this reality show on television in which the participants were narrating what it seemed like their life story.

Ola has realized that it would never make profit just like its overrated original and so it's diversifying into electric vehicles.
