Celebrating Tradition in a Digital World


This Raksha Bandhan, I was reminded of the power of technology to bring us closer, even when we're miles apart. My brother, Aarav, and I have always shared a special bond, but with him in Silicon Valley and me in India, I wondered how we could keep our traditions alive.


Aarav, ever the innovator, surprised me with an app he developed called “RakhiBond.” Through it, I designed a digital rakhi that he received instantly on his smartwatch. The app’s AI even analyzed my emotions as I created it, delivering a personalized message that captured the depth of our connection. But the real magic happened when Aarav sent me a pair of VR glasses, allowing me to tie a virtual rakhi on his holographic wrist in a digital version of our childhood home.


This experience showed me that while distance might separate us, technology can bridge the gap, preserving and even enhancing the traditions that matter most. It’s a beautiful reminder that innovation isn’t just about the latest gadgets—it’s about finding new ways to stay connected to the people we love.

The Proximity of Eyes to the Brain: A Data Science Perspective

The relationship between the eyes and the brain is a fascinating topic that not only touches on biology and neuroscience but also provides interesting parallels to data science. The proximity of the eyes to the brain is a well-designed feature that maximizes efficiency in visual processing—a concept that can be translated into the world of data science. Visual Processing and Data Science: A Comparison In humans, approximately 40% of the brain is dedicated to visual processing. This significant allocation highlights the importance of vision in how we interact with and understand the world. The eyes, positioned close to the brain, enable rapid transmission and processing of visual data. Similarly, in data science, the proximity of data sources to processing units can significantly impact the speed and efficiency of data analysis. Data Proximity and Latency One of the key reasons why the eyes are close to the brain is to reduce latency—the delay between visual stimulus and the brain’s res...
