Freshers vs Seniors cricket match: Final over thriller!
Freshers needed 12 runs off the final 6 balls. 1st year fast bowler hit a six over long-on, followed by a tight dot ball, and finished with a boundary through covers! Respect earned on the field.
Demystifying pointers: Think of memory as a row of numbered lockers
Variables are what is inside the locker. A pointer is simply a slip of paper with the locker number written on it. The `&` operator gives you the locker number. The `*` operator opens the locker and reads what is inside. That's literally the whole concept. Don't let your first C programming textbook intimidate you.
Campus lore: The legend of the phantom printer in the CSE department lab
Legend has it that if you send a print job to Network Printer 3 at 2:00 AM, it will spontaneously print out three blank pages followed by a single page saying 'Syntax Error on Line 42' even if your computer is completely turned off. Every campus has that one possessed piece of equipment.
The essential college hostel packing checklist you won't find on brochures
Items you will desperately need in your first week:
1. Good extension board with surge protection
2. Electric kettle with auto-cut
3. An umbrella that can survive monsoon winds (cheap folding ones will snap)
4. Mattress topper (hostel coir mattresses feel like solid concrete for the first month)
5. At least 6 passport-size photos and 10 photocopies of Aadhaar/12th marksheet
6. First-aid pouch with paracetamol, antacids, and band-aids. Save this post!

Attendance shortage notices on college notice board hitting like a truck this semester.

Can someone explain Deadlock avoidance (Banker's Algorithm) simply?
I understand the concept of safe states, but in practice, do modern operating systems actually run the Banker's Algorithm, or do they just ignore the problem and let processes crash (the Ostrich algorithm)?
Prof explained it today with sliding windows and three-way handshakes, but conceptually why do video games always use UDP if packets can get dropped? Doesn't that make the game glitchy?
Hostel survival hack: The multi-socket extension cord tax
If you bring a 4-socket spike guard to your hostel room, prepare for your room to become the designated charging hub of the entire wing. You will have three laptops, two power banks, a Bluetooth speaker, and an electric kettle plugged in by 11 PM.
