    Programming languages

Programming languages rise and fall with the solar cycle.
A programmer's career should not.
While it is important to teach languages relevant to employers, it is equally important that students learn how to teach themselves new languages.
The best way to learn how to learn progamming languages is to learn multiple programming languages and programming paradigms.

    Detecting similar and identical images using perseptual hashes

Couple of my hobbies are travelling and photography. I love to take pictures and experiment with photography. Usually after my trips, I just copy the photos to either my iPad or couple of my external hard disks. After 10 years, I have over 200K photos distributed across several disks and machines. I had to find a way to organize these photos and create a workflow for future maintenance. In this post I want to address one of the issues I had to solve: ** finding duplicate images **.
First, I needed to find out what exactly is a duplicate image. Analysing my photos, I found couple of interesting things:

  Identical images: There were multiple copies of the same photo in different directories with different names.
 Similar images: I usually bracket (exposure compensate or flash compensate) important pictures. So I have photos that visually appear to be the same, but may be a little darker/lighter based on e
