If I Searched for the Hallows

Excerpt from "Ankit Sarkar and the Digital Hallows"

Ever since the net was discovered, the have been people who have sought to control it.

The evil person can split his presence on the net. The more evil he is, the more horcrux-bots will he create. To fully exterminate his control of the net, all horcrux-bots need to be destroyed. Only a truly evil person can achieve this much control.

I'm not evil. Yet, I too sought out a way to become master of the internet. Hallows not horcruxes.

The Elder Comp is the most powerful computer on earth. The Resurrection Hard Disk has the ability to fetch any data from anywhere, even if it has been shredded. The Invisibility Encoding makes a person literally invisible on the net. These three digital-hallows combined makes a person master of the internet. No one can know who he is, no firewall can stop him, no data download limits exist for him. He is invincible.

I however do not recommend you to go search for it. I have wasted countless hours. My CGPA has come down a lot. I still do not know what to do after this year. And I still haven't found any of them till now.

Every time I think I have found the fastest computer, there appears one more faster that it. Every time I lose data, some of it remains lost for ever. And every time I think I have found the perfect way to be invisible, I get caught by "Cyberoam".

The hallows are a fool's lure. Do not go after it.


Explanation for the random piece of writing above:

Today is the first day of my last year of undergraduate life at IIIT-D. Hence I had put up this status
Today is the beginning of the end (first day of the last year at IIIT-D)
This was a comment I got (from Tuhinanshu, my batch-mate).
this part should be named Ankit Sarkar and IIITD's hallows.....part 4
To continue the fun I posted a comment which you just read above. Initially I wrote it and then deleted it. Later I modified it a bit and posted it again. It seems people really liked it a lot. I'm not sure if you'll fully understand it though (unless you're a IIIT-Dian) since many references are local to IIIT Delhi.

And I gotta credit Ujjwal Gupta for his suggestion of posting it and preserving it for posterity.
I only regret that I have but one 'like' to give to the above post.
You should totally have this in your notes section. Or on your blog. This message needs to be spread to every nook and cranny of the internet!
Since he wanted to give many likes, it is only fair that I give many thanks. But then I don't feel like typing it over here. Here's the next best thing.
#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
  while(1)
  printf("Thank You Ujjwal\n");
}
