Recently, I built a mobile app and wanted to give a live demo to my colleagues. I was trying to mirror my iPhone to PC and at home it worked very fine but while in office it didn’t. I couldn’t figure out the problem. When I investigated the detail, I found that both PC and iPhone should be using same WiFi and our office network uses some sort of firewall which creating problem. While at home it was easier to connect to same WiFi and mirroring was working very fine. But I found a solution to fix this firewall issue and writing about it today. Continue reading

I have never understood why Microsoft office is so costly. It hardly provides 8-10 software in the package while the entire operating system is much cheaper which hosts the entire set of the system. Typically, Microsoft office costs around 300-400 INR (5-6 USD) monthly to 4500 INR yearly which is a hell lot of money. As being a cost-sensitive person, I always prefer to go with trial or open source software. But as being a professional you need to depend on Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint a lot if not other software and for that, I was looking for a solution from last few months. I tried a lot to find suitable open source and ways to crack the office but it didn’t work. Once trying to get keygen I unknowingly installed a malware and had to format my PC. So, I didn’t want to take any further risk and finally found a way to install licensed and genuine MS office. 
I had been facing this problem from last few months and really got frustrated. Google is such a reputed company and Gmail being the first choice for emailing must be the most convenient way to email. But due to certain changes, it automatically wraps sentences and makes it look like a poem. If you are sending email to friends or family, this could be managed but for any formal communication this is a serious issue and raises questions about your writing skills. Finally, I could fix it with lots of back and forth and want to share the same with my readers. 
In Data Science visualization is a powerful tool. You can’t sell a concept but a product. Data analytics is science but presenting them through different graphs and charts is an art. We have many ways to present the numbers and a lot of software which make our life easy. Few of them which I have tried are Tableau, R Shiny, D3, QlikView and VBA Dashboard. Every tool has its own advantages and properties. Currently, I am working on R Shiny dashboard which is so beautiful and easy to learn. I would really encourage you to learn R Shiny if you do coding in R. It has a lot of in-built packages which can easily be deployed. Today let’s work on cascading filters one of the most important kinds of filters. Every other filter is connected to the predecessor filter.
