During the winter break I had a chance to read The Black Swan by Nassim. In a world full of uncertainity, “The Black Swan” shines a light on new ideas, shaking up what we think we know about randomness and unpredictability. I would recommend anyone working in field dealing with randomness and complex events to read this book.

JIT stands for “Just-In-Time” compilation, which is a technique used by some programming languages and runtime environments to improve the performance of executing code. That would make sense to a developer but for non-developer, I think the definition can be a bit confusing so let me try to explain this in a simple way.

I always wanted a blog where I can put my ideas and projects I am doing and get feedback from people. I tried creating a rails app which would host my pages but due to lack of time I couldn’t give much time to it. Finally I found Jekyll (recommended to me by my lead @ Shopify) which not just lets you create blog website but also lets you host sites right from your GitHub repositories. There are a lot of websites out there which can help you create a blog by dragging and dropping elements but my idea of blog was not just to share my views with people but to also learn web development.

If you are interested in learning jekyll, feel free to check this post and share your views.
