It's time to dump Moore's Law to advance computing


An end to Moore's Law will prompt chipmakers to think outside the box and pave the future of computing, suggests a prominent computer scientist.

Dumping Moore's Law is perhaps the best thing that could happen to computers, as it'll hasten the move away from an aging computer architecture holding back hardware innovation.
That's the view of prominent scientist R. Stanley Williams, a senior fellow in the Hewlett Packard Labs. Williams played a key role in the creation of the memristor by HP in 2008.
Moore's Law is an observation made by Intel co-founder Gordon Moore in 1965 that has helped make devices smaller and faster. It predicts that the density of transistors would double every 18 to 24 months, while the cost of making chips goes down.

10Quotes for MAN from "As A Man Thinketh" by James Allen

This book is written in terms of the responsibility any man has as a MAN. The book starts with the statement: Mind is the Master power that moulds and makes, And Man is Mind, and evermore he takes The tool of Thought, and, shaping what he wills, Brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills: — He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass: Environment is but his looking-glass.

Have the fear of the failure?

Everyone has the fear of the failure, no one is an exception in that. But it is the most affecting factor now a day in India. I have recently joined a startup course and there are many people I saw that everyone have the idea to do business and became an entrepreneur but they all have one thing that is restraining them from doing or starting it. It's the fear of the failure. I am also working on my startup idea and finding people to make a team with but when I talk to these people almost all of them says that "we prefer doing a job rather than a startup." and when I ask about the reason they say "what if we fail?" Everybody has the fear of failure and that thing is restraining them from doing the best they can or what they are capable of. This the reason why I'm writing this article today. I don't have a bigger failure like some entrepreneurs but I have many of them(but small ones).  So, let's see how to overcome that fear of failure to...
