The pathos and anger of entire civilizations evaporates, gets condensed and is then distilled into my social media feed. If I do not appear empathetic to a cause dear to you, it is not that I don't care rather I wasn't built to withstand misgivings/injustice on a planetary scale

Visiting India right now. Feels like a different country. In a good way. You can see upward mobility in action everywhere around you. Spending patterns, dressing etc - you can see it.

@grhmc Write a preprocessor to the encoder that bails out unless the inputs are all zeroes or all ones. Decompressor can then trivially dispatch and amplify the single bit into 200 bits.

Landed a gig after looking for two months. Market was more difficult than I recall at any other time in the past. For those of you looking to switch/land a gig, my best wishes are with you and if the going is tough please keep in mind that its not just you who is finding it tough

Maybe I interpreted this role wrong but CTO at a very early stage startup ended up being about becoming Technical list 1. Master of devops 2. Intimately aware about quota limits of every cloud product 3. Getting extremely comfortable debugging code that I did not write

Internet Archive is as close to the Library of Alexandria/Nalanda we have today. Will be a shame if publishers manage to take it down or clip its wings.

Funny part is that at India's scale and given its raucous democracy such top down "intelligent design" is just not possible. Do this experiment - get yourself invited to any Indian dinner party and witness the debate, argument and deep divides on any imaginable topic except

As a dry run for Diwali sweet prep, made mysorepak yesterday for the first time in my life after consulting some recipes online. Had a small piece this morning after breakfast and its honestly 10x better than any sweet options that I can land here in the US.
