Calculating the change of healthy natural vegetation in a definite area after Australia's bushfires with Landsat-8 images — Abstract — Since European settlement, Australia is going through massive deforestation, endangering its wildlife and opening new doors for a climate crisis.

Lothar Collatz, two years after receiving his doctorate, introduced the idea of a conjecture in 1937. Mathematicians still couldn’t solve it. — “Mathematics is not yet ripe enough for such questions” That’s what mathematician Paul Erdos said about the simple conjecture we are going to talk about. But first, let’s start from the beginning. Guess a positive number. Any positive number. Now follow these two simple rules to apply to that number.

What we know about mathematical proofs was changed by Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorem. — Remember the Collatz conjecture? Here’s a quick recap. Guess a positive number. If the number is even, just divide it by 2. If the number is odd, then multiply it by 3 and add 1. This makes the number even again, and you can divide it by 2 again. …

There are several online websites that provide a service to buy land on the moon, but still, you can’t. — Gregory W. Nemitz’s company Orbital Development issued NASA a parking ticket for $20. You might think that some NASA guy parked his car in this front yard or something. Nope. He claimed ownership of Asteroid 433 Eros. In 1996, NASA launched a space probe to observe that same asteroid.

Some don’t even have free time to spend on a side hustle, but they make time for it. Some follow their passion in their side hustles, some…

I made my home appliances phone-controlled for 8$ through some coding — I’m a lazy guy. I don’t like getting out of bed. So I had to figure out how I can turn the lights off after getting in bed. No, I got no switches near my bed. So, had to brainstorm some ideas to solve this problem. One of my ideas…

I cracked the interview for the System Engineer role in Tata Consultancy Solutions (TCS) with the TCS Digital package — Let’s agree on one common fact, getting a high paying IT job in India is very difficult if you are graduated from a moderate private college. Recruiters (especially product-based companies) with higher packages prefer recruiting from government colleges only in India. …
