As good a time as any

Penning this on July 18th, 2022. It is 11:17PM and I am at the same desk I used to study during my 11th and 12th. The JEE prep days and I was going through this blog in a bout of nostalgia. Words will never do justice to the pure power that this house embodies. It is like a part of consciousness always hung around here and a part of me was always missing from me when I was thousands of miles away. When I landed here on the 30th of June with Taru , Lakki and Mummy, it did not take me more than 4 days to fall back in love with Bengaluru. I could smell the welcome in the air. It is perhaps the monsoons and it is perhaps my want and need to have Tara experience my childhood (a goal I admittedly flicked from my good friend Abi) or perhaps it was just the small peek into a comfortable life in high-rise apartments that made me re-evaluate my idea of Bangalore and life in India. It was absolutely stunning to see how the dark clouds of misjudgement of my country, state and city split asunder and gushed forth rains for thought and rumination. There is no coming back from this gentlemen. The return has begun.

Global Economic History

The Great Divergence The book starts with absolutely no frills and gets straight to the point. It talks about 3 phases in the recent history of the world since 1500. From 1500 to 1800 - lots of mercantile stuff. From 1800 to mid-1900's (I think) - Industrial revolution mid-1900s to now - He talks about the "Great Push" There is this divergence in the ability of the country to multiply its GDP. Some rich European countries and USA multiplied by 35 to 50 times whereas countries in Africa only managed 5 to 7 at max. Suprisingly, Japan, Taiwan and S.Korea majorly kicked butt at this trend to be an outlier on that divergence graph. They really leapfrogged to development. It is also interesting to note how China and India dominated world production in 1750 and down to pretty much minuscule percentage in 1950. China is ramping up and if it goes back that is one full circle. It is also interesting to note that India and China were pushed back to manufacture commoditie

How to create a mind.

Picked up this book at Word in Jersey City on a weekend afternoon. Did not realize at the time as to how old the book was. It made for a fascinating reading when on a five hour plane ride from Newark to San Diego. The coffee and the calmness conspired to motivate me to read this book with an attentive zeal I‌ had not experienced in years. The book is indeed awe-inspiring as the author starts to tear into the meat of the matter. Started to read this book again after a long gap. Started reading at chapter 3. The book talks about how the neocortex of the brain separates mammals from non-mammals and how the presence of a large neocortex has enabled humans to essentially dominate the animal kingdom. As a species, humans have evolved so drastically so as to be on the verge of creating the very intelligence that helped it gain that dominance. Scientific research shows how most of the neocortex is very uniform and the fundamental structure that makes up this uniformity is a neocortical c
