Media Painting Wrong Picture of Bihar

In recent discussions with a friend who being a die hard Laloo and RJD supporter came up with a claim that crime have gone down in Bihar since the government came into power. I doubted his claim, for this he pulled out some articles which were a mockery of data analysis.

It’s not just about software, it’s about systems thinking. More importantly, it answers the question: Why do countries innovate? The answer isn’t just genius or ambition—it’s incentives and ecosystems. The U.S. Defense Department, for example, accounted for nearly 70% of federal R&D funding during the Cold War. China has pumped billions into semiconductors and AI with long-term national alignment. These aren’t short-term bets—they are strategic, delibe...

Problems with mysql.sock

Sometimes while working on Linux, mysql.sock may get deleted by mistake due to some softwares.. in such cases any access to mysql wont be possible as the sock file defines the socket connection for mysql. It will give an error of the following type: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) In such cases follow these steps to reconfigure mysql: Delete the log files with the names: ib_logfile0, ib_logfile1 and ibdata1 in the /var/lib/mysql directory Then type: "mysqld_safe --user=mysql &" This will automatically create mysql.sock file and even the new logs files.
