How Inception is like metaprogramming

The dreams-within-dreams concept from the movie Inception is being compared by programmers to a recursive function. A parallel exists between dreams-within-dreams and programs-within-programs. As you're watching the movie,especially in the later sequences,you are watching it on four and even five levels. The events that occur on each level have consequences for those levels below it. When the dreaming is over, the lower levels get to return the favor,having consequences on the levels above them by how they changed the dreamers themselves. To follow the movie you need to have an understanding of what is going on at each level. Similarly in metaprograaming, you need an awareness of what level you are operating on at any given time as well as some knowledge of when and how to mix in elements from other levels.
Metaprogramming is the writing of computer programs that write or manipulate other programs (or themselves) as their data, or that do part of the work at compile time that would otherwise be done at runtime. In many cases, this allows programmers to get more done in the same amount of time as they would take to write all the code manually, or it gives programs greater flexibility to efficiently handle new situations without recompilation.(Definition Source : wiki )

Fazer Limited Edition Mania

I had been bike freak since kid hood, but never ever got a chance to owe one. Reason, I had seen freaky shit happening to guys biking out. And therefore, I had quit. Was in fact scared. Then all of the sudden my best friend suggested me to go for it. Wth loads of cash to spend, I called my friend Bhatia. "Bhatia, I want a bike which has tashani looks, damn stable and decent speedster ?"..with a blink of an eye, he suggested me Yamaha Fazer.



The very next day, we tripped to the showroom and folks!!!! I was deeply impressed with the limited edition. Checked out Bajaj and Hero Honda, but Fazer had already captivated my attention..

I made up my mind and bought in 3 days.

Stylish in looks..damn damn sporty areodynamics..this machine sets the road on fire..



I couldn't sleep the other night. At 1 AM in the morning, I felt like running away on the bike..

My Bike catches attention. It deeply makes everyone jealous. When the sun shines down on the body..its twilight..

I picked up Sarvesh for a quick foto session as I wanted to show my bike and it was getting late.

I wanted to make it large and therefore I sat on the internet, dug up quotations and edited my pics with a style. The next one is the best tag line I could ever find..



Friends were so intimately jealous that they started accusing the performance of the bike. I gave them a damn..

Yesterday, I sat on a quest to check the performance of my bike. Folks, in terms of stability, this bike will never ever disappoint you. When the tachometer is flashing at 60 kmph, and therez a deep round right turn, you don't have to disc, just lean and move forward, thanks to the 140 inch radial tubeless wheel that gives you a never dying confidence to rush over.



Disc brakes is so smoooooooth..apply it and you will never feel bumping over the tank fuel..sitting comfort is awesome, lately drove for 3 hours and was all afresh.

Speaking of the mileage, lemme tell you my story. I had put my bike on reserve which is 1.4L and set on a local journey to check out its mileage. Time to time, I was shifting from 1st to 2nd to 3rd gear and vice versa. My jealous mates say, only 25 Km per 1 litre..I say, 45 Km per 1 litre. And herez the in depth analysis..if you are on a hilly terrain full of traffic and constantly shifting between 1st and 2nd gear, mileage is 30 Km in 1 litre..in normal city traffic it went to 45 km per 1 litre with few point litres still left in the tank..long distance ride can well be assumed..

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

-Robert Frost.

Folks in the end I will suggest..Yes Yamaha..Pulsar days are over and Karizma is a nanny..be a dude..be a hunk..ride fazer..
