MSC World Europa

 MSC World Europa

The MSC World Europa is a cruise ship owned by MSC Cruises, an Italian company. The ship will take it's maiden voyage to Dubai on 20th of December 2022.


The ship consists of 20 decks (deck 17 is replaced with deck 21 because 17 is considered an unlucky number) and is 333 meters long and can accommodate up to 6774 passengers across 2630 cabins.

Many pools were present throughout the ship. We visited the aqua-park, which consisted of three different rides and a pool. A dry slide, the Venom Drop, is the highlight of the ship, going from the topmost deck, all the way down to the eighth deck. 


We had food in the form of vouchers which provided one snack and one meal as a buffet. The food was excellent. There were a variety of dishes, all of them tasting great. The ship had many facilities, including a big screen, which broadcasted the Argentina vs France match. A post match celebration was also organized, and at 10 pm, we got to see the Corniche fireworks.
 


We left around midnight, after we finished eating.

Line Following Robotics

Line Following @ DPS Monarch Tech Fest Introduction Since 2020, DPS Monarch School (Doha, Qatar), has held a Tech Fest, celebrating today’s technological advancements through various competitions and events. In the years 2023 – 2024, as well as the 2024 – 2025, I have been lucky to be selected for this gathering, in the line following robot event. Before I go on with the event itself, I would like to talk about our line following robot, and line following in general. Year 1 June 2023 was when I was first introduced to the world of line following. When I first received the opportunity to participate, I had thought, ‘How hard can it be?’ And later, after some block coding with the mBot2 , along with my other 3 team members, I found out that I was right. Using a quad RGB sensor that turned the robot whenever the line got to the edge proved to be a robust method. Hence, we had a robot that could follow a line… but the story wasn’t over. Humans are always obsessed with mak...

Data Visualization in Python

Now this is a topic that any respectable researcher, data scientist, or basically any person who works with numbers should be proficient in: data visualization. I believe myself to be none of the above, and while I do not consider myself to have expert knowledge in data visualization, I do believe that I have had enough experience with charts and graphs in python to speak about the subject. I have learnt and experimented with data science and machine learning techniques in python before, and data visualization has come up almost every single time. Of course, being able to see your data is very important- it helps you identify the structure and spread of the data easily and can help you identify patterns as well. Unfortunately, every time I feel the need to fire up a bar plot, I feel this inexplicable resistance: I forgot how to. Despite being one of the easiest concepts to learn, it is difficult to master. There are, of course, no in-built data visualization tools in python, mean...

Review of “Successful Negotiation: Essential Strategies and Skills”

‘Successful Negotiation: Essential Strategies and Skills’ is a 7-week course offered by the University of Michigan on Coursera. George Siedel, the instructor for the course, teaches the matter in a lively and comprehensive manner, providing plenty of examples of concepts to solidify the knowledge.  The material itself, while simple to understand, can go a long way in improving your career and providing you with important business knowledge and negotiation tactics. Moreover, the content can also be learnt from scratch, with no prior experience. The course is divided into 7 modules, each being designed to be completed within a week. The modules are designed around the 4-step negotiation process (Prepare, Negotiate, Close, and Perform and Evaluate). After an introductory module and one module for each step in the negotiation process, the course ends with a practice module and the final examination. The 4 negotiation modules were packed with business and negotiation theory but ...
