My Mind

I see my mind—oh what a sight! As an endless room, and yet so bound.
Thoughts scattered like furniture thus thrown
Millions of fragments glistening against the back-ground

A room without a door and hence my mind secure,
I go further within, trying to unravel
A conscious reminder, that my thoughts remain tenure

It seems so natural, like walking in a park
And yet my mind seeps, deeper and deeper into the dark
It seems though, as unhealthy as it may that I could have found a darker shade of (my) grey

As I venture forth, I visit my past
But beautifully so, it holds no black cast!
The happiness surrounds, holding me firm
The exuberance of it all, caressing my face shocked

It is then that I conceive the reason for it all,
The darkness that had once become my fall
The blazing pride, which stung my tongue red
The anger in my eyes, which made hearts drop like lead
The intimidating glare, the snappy words
All seemed from another universe!

As I had marveled at the sight of my mind,
I realized the reason for the bind
 Hence I come back,
As a better person
With a better perspective
My mind, quite the nook!
Has given me an insight which is still oddly irksome

But I still do believe, my mind Oh what a sight!

How to: Personal Knowledge Management

Note Taking, Writing Better, and Building a Knowledge Base And a review of the book "How to Take Smart Notes: One Simple Technique to Boost Writing, Learning and Thinking – for Students, Academics and Nonfiction Book Writers" by Sönke Ahrens. Context Last year, I read a book called "How to Take Smart Notes: One Simple Technique to Boost Writing, Learning, and Thinking – for Students, Academics and Nonfiction Book Writers" by Sönke Ahrens to improve my writing and notetaking skills. This blog post is meant for anyone who has never heard the word "Zettlekasten" or "Commonplace Notebook", and wants to get better at extracting and maintaining the information they consume.  We need four tools: · Something to write with and something to write on (pen and paper will do) · A reference management system (the best programs are free) · The slip-box (the best program is free) · An editor (whatever works best for you: very good ones are free) — Sönke Ahrens

How to: Quantum

As a continuation of the last post ( Newer Horizons Indeed ), this post will serve as a list of resources that are useful to study the basics of Quantum Computing, a few events that I personally enjoy tuning in to, and a general update about the Qiskit Summer School and the Qiskit Advocate Program. Resources for Learning These articles are a cornucopia of wonderful resources (such as  John Preskill's lecture notes ) on how to get started with Quantum Computing, developing a better understanding of Quantum Mechanics, as well as some resources for pre-undergrad (so mainly highschool-level) material for students to follow. Learning Quantum Computing Entry Points for Learning Quantum Computing The following resources are ones that I have used (before I'd come across the aforementioned articles, thanks to my mentor): Quantum Computing for the Very Curious  by Andy Matuschak and Michael Nielsen It's perhaps the most unconventional "textbook" I've ever used. It aims

Poor Richard's Journal

Fill me with your words and dreams Tell me the secrets you want to scream Write in me about what you'd like to  know Draw me those places you'd want to go Let's traverse your mind, you and I Pen those scary thoughts; as I bleed and you cry Turn the page and forget them still Those memories you've buried under the mill Of your head where such thoughts are ground Into mere ink on paper browned Come later and see the story unfold A great story indeed, this story untold
