WHY IS EVERYONE PREFERRING SOFTWARE OVER HARDWARE?

Currently the trend is pretty clear get a good rank, join a good college and opt for Computer Science.
Everyone around only has  one dream that is to join a big product based company be it Google , Microsoft or any other tech giants .

 Swipe through social media you will find hundreds of post asking about the best programming language to learn , how to start competitive coding , how to be a ethical hacker !!!!

 Everything except hardware, clearly it can be seen that software development  is dominating the hardware development  scene in the current generation .

 But WHY??

 Is there any definitive answer ?

 Today we shall discuss about that only , that is " Why is software development preferred over hardware development"
There are several reasons behind this , lets start from the first one




1. Monetary condition : Already raising your eyebrows well hold on, will try to explain everything ,
in a country like India which is still a developing nation , software development is far cheaper than anything related to hardware . A mid-end PC and a net connection that's whats all required to start software development , sometimes smartphones are also capable enough to do your job, but just think even if you want to make a basic Arduino project you need to spend about 1000 bucks extra.



2. Lack of quality jobs : Its pretty evident that Hardware lacks the quality or high paying jobs of software , and that whats make young minds fade away from it , To be honest there are  loads of job
opportunities but it lacks the marketing and polish of software oriented jobs.




3. Exposure and Competition  : Another pretty major factor is exposure , just like jobs , in the hardware field there is very less exposure as compared to software , Every year there are hundreds of coding competitions and hackathons where young peeps can nurture their talent , but contrasting to that there are very few competitions regarding hardware stuff .



After stating all these points , I want to also state that do follow your passion as much as possible ,
if you are interested in hardware do that only, don't run behind the six figure salary .
Self satisfaction is the main criterion.
Basically these are the facts which i wanted to present in this blog,

WHAT ARE SOCKETS IN NETWORKING ???

Image
Many of us have heard about sockets in Internet or in networking. But have you ever thought what exactly is it and what it has to do with the networks or internet in general? So today I will be telling you what a Socket is, in a broader view. Before jumping to the Sockets, we need to learn few thing to understand the Sockets later. Those are mentioned below: 1. Protocol 2. Address 3. Port ----------------------- 1. Protocol: Protocols are the set of rules in the internet/network which governs the internal functionality of communication. Two of the famous protocols used in data transmssion are TCP and UDP(google for more info). 2. Address: The word "Address" is referred to IP address of a host(computer) in the world of networking. That IP address is generally IPv4(IP version 4). This address is used to uniquely identify each hosts(computers) in a network. 3. Port: You may have heard about the words 'port', 'port number', 'http port...

WHAT SHOULD WE LEARN FIRST C or PYTHON ?

Image
Coding and programming these two words can now be heard everywhere, every student who wants to do engineering are pretty much interested in CSE well not everyone but at least 60% of them are,and that's the reason cutoff for CSE is so much high in the recent times. So, everyone is interested in CSE we do get the general idea ,now we come to coding or programming . Everywhere in social media we get to see one common question that is "Which programming language  should we learn first ?" or " how can i start coding "...... Here is the answer. First of all we have to What is C and Python? So, C is a programming language  first  developed by Dennis Ritchie in the 1970s , its quite a simple yet powerful language. now, Python is termed as an advanced third generation language and                                                    ...
