Back in 2002, when I was still in school, 2020 seemed like a far fetched affair. There was some discussion originating from Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam’s mind about 2020 would be The Year. It felt like it would be a time when the World would have totally changed. Technology would have made leaps and bounds.Continue reading “2020 will be full of fireworks”
Year 2019 End Blog Post
So, the fastest year of life is over in a jiffy. I went to Goa in Jan 2018 and it feels like it was just a few weeks ago. That’s how fast the last 2 years have gone by. There were many learnings this year work-wise. I have now completed more than a decade ofContinue reading “Year 2019 End Blog Post”
Thinking Fast and Slow.
Currently, I am reading the book Thinking Fast and Slow and as of now, it is amazing. But, this is not about the book, I just wanted to use the title.

Well, Chandrayaan 2 is a partial success after all. It reached pretty far accurately, even became the first IndianContinue reading “The New Indian Adhesive”
So I recently watched: Tumbbad, Article 15, Hot Fuzz
Of course, it is unfair and lazy to write my reviews of 3 movies in one blog post as a movie reviews writer, but I am not a movie reviews writer and I just want to get past this writer’s block so it is what it is. Also, I am writing all of these togetherContinue reading “So I recently watched: Tumbbad, Article 15, Hot Fuzz”
So I recently watched ‘Mission Mangal’
I distinctly remember this. I was in a bus travelling towards my office and while it took a U-Turn in front of ISRO office on Outer Ring Road towards Marathahalli, Bengaluru, somewhere far away Mangalyaan was getting inserted into the Mars orbit. I was following the news on Twitter and the event just happened. TheContinue reading “So I recently watched ‘Mission Mangal’”
