Hashing Out People

Why do people discuss people?

Is it just for the kick one gets out of discussing the qualities one possess or, well, as it is most of the times, lacks?

Most of you will confer.

Pardon me, I prefer to differ.

In any pure discussion pertaining to people, there is a subtle thread associated with the concerns or care one has for the individual under the lens.

If you start digging deeper, in any constructive people discussion, the web of despair, which seems to be called in because you are frustrated or hurt by something they did, is closely knit with a genuine welfare and liking for the individual on the table.

To the people discussing, the person being discussed seems to be going away, you fear losing them.

It's not just that the venting up of one's anger or frustration is the goal, as it is in most of the discussions; no, there is more than meets the eye in an unbiased hashing out.

You actually love those people, which, to me, seems to grow as you go on discussing.

Though i might be wrong, but would be a darn loss if i am not.

So people, lets discuss people, constructively.

Well a fine tune analysis but on a counter logic does there exist something called "destructive people discussion" ? By the way can it be ever constructive or destructive when you discuss people. What can you construct and what can you destroy?
But must say its light in a new direction in the way we use to discuss about people. We all are so fond of it. And this whole (new) idea of discussion constructively while the love for them is re-enforced is quite a thought provoking thought. :()

Blogging Machines

 The recent craze around #NLP #AI assistant #ChatGPT is something that every individual, tech/non-tech irrespective, should pay rapt attention to. Within the first few hours of exploring this tool, i almost felt like talking to Jarvis Version 0.01 - something thats no Tony Stark, but can turn him into IronMan.  Experimented with it to write poems, to code snippets, to iterate over the current context of conversation to improve over the previous versions of responses and every time i was almost struck with awe for what brave world we might be marching towards. The applicability is not just for tech world by the way, as we will see, the following content/blogpost is created solely by ChatGPT. I started with asking a simple request -  Write a blog about #emergingtech on #containers   and voila here it is Subsequently i requested to "continue on this blog" and since its fully context aware it went on detailing more To further test its capability to "generate context...

Mortally Divine

He who sways the needle fine,  The ancient of them all, Time.  Time is what one truly spends,  Million attempts at retrospective amends.  Amends one seeks for long lost deed,  Forgotten not forgiven by divine heed.  Heed your way encased mortal coil,  Light thy pyre with blood, sweat and toil. Toil util the illusions last, 'Cause end is just the start.

Why?

The incapability of the human mind to fight the feeling of despair caused by the inevitable fact of mortality and the transient nature of existence as whole has resulted into the philosophising of life and assigning a greater purpose to one's existence which then threads the communities, societies and humane thinking in general to create groups, isms, dogmas, religion and what not. What if the life or existence is for its own sake; cause it can be so it is, with no greater purpose to it? What if nature exists just as an after effect of observation by the sentient life? No existence without an observer. People stress the trifles not acknowledging the fact that eventually nothing matters as everything is transient. We accumulate things as we accumulate people in our small life in an attempt to permeate our presence with a subtle consolation that they will be there; people and things alike; even when we are long gone and there by prolong our puny legacies.
