Dr. Pradeep Apte is one of my favorite Professors. I had the privilege of attending one of his excellent talks recently on Breweries in India - yes, you heard it right!

My Tryst with Reverse Auction: Concepts, Chaos and Connecting the Dots…
I recently participated in a tender process which culminated in a Reverse Auction. It was an insightful experience for me and hence I thought of sharing here.

Remembering Dr. Jayant Narlikar…
I had a privilege of visiting IUCAA, Pune in early 90's when I was in school (7th or 8th standard probably) and listen to Dr Narlikar.

AI ची जादू आणि उद्याचे जग – श्री. अच्युत गोडबोले | Magic of AI & the world tomorrow – Achyut Godbole
अच्युत गोडबोले यांनी नुकतेच "AI ची जादू आणि उद्याचे जग" या विषयावर एक अतिशय माहितीपूर्ण आणि रसाळ व्याख्यान दिले. अच्युत गोडबोले हे अतिशय विद्वान आणि ज्ञानाच्या प्रसारासाठी तळमळ असलेले व्यक्ती आहेत. बरेचदा ते पाल्हाळ लावतात आणि आत्मप्रौढी देखील बऱ्याच प्रमाणात असते. पण त्यांच्या ज्ञानाबद्दल आणि चांगल्या हेतूबद्दल शंकाच नाही. अजून ए चांगली गोष्ट म्हणजे ते...

Etymology of Numbers
