I want to put it in other words based on philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche - Exploitation is the key characteristic of living beings. This is applicable not only to humans but also to single celled life forms. (There are exceptions to this). So, those who are dedicated to the org itself are the one who are exploiting. And those who are working for the goal of the org are the exploited. There is always fight between these two group. Some time, a symbiotic relationship, some times status quo. etc.

Those who recognize this will be at peace since they understand the soul of bureaucracy.

There is another thing that reduces the safety of car - it is sunroof. In India, all top trims come with sunroof. I believe, sunroof can not provide the safety that of one without sunroof. More ever, it can absorb significantly more heat compared one without sunroof.

Can life evolve to slow down the process of increasing entropy? For ex: Sun is throwing energy in space. What if life tries to store it and use it only when it needs? Has the sunlight gone into space (without being captured by fossilized life), it would have thinly spread out in universe(high entropy, low energy density). But plants and humans (solar cells) capturing it to create fossil fules or create some infrastructure... Is it not life going against this theory? Or is it just intermidiate step of life which eventually (life will) blast all energy in short period of time at the end like an expontial system does?

I liked the syntax of key word arguments in Python. Then asked myself on how come this is not popular in C/C++ world. After seaching internet, found the way and documented here.

Instead of using a templating lang for html file generation, we can use Python or Javascript. Thus, we don't need to learn one more templating lang. I never used Javascript lib that I mentioned above, but it is here for ref : https://github.com/Knio/dominate.js

I use this a SSG (Static Site Generator). This is helpful since I don't need to learn one more SSG since I am already aware of Python and little bit of html/css.

From past 2 years, for 98% of the time, I use Linux (Mint-Mate edition). I have nVidia p600 GPU and 4K monitor. Due to some reasons, scaling does not work fine in Xfce edition, but scaling at 1x works fine in Mate edition.

Given the limitations, still I feel, using GNU/Linux is better than Windows for most use cases like surfing web, Terminals, LibreOffice, SW development etc...

1.Once we learn Intel syntax, same knowledge can re-used in other ISA (RISC-V, ARM) This is not true for AT&T syntax, hence one more no for the use of AT&T.
