A number of smart engineers have looked at the us-east-1 outage and covered it with the blanket of a simple explanation: brain drain; race condition; it’s always DNS; the cloud is unreliable, go on-prem. Even sitting outside AWS, you can look and find at least a dozen troubles.…

I was a huge advocate for having e2e/integration tests tied to Pull Requests, but I no longer believe that's a great idea. e2e tests by nature are very finicky. They are long and have complex interactions. On top of it, they almost never run with the same stack that Prod is…

I am seeing people dunk on their employer citing this: if you didn't get laid off in the worst economy, that itself is a win for some of us, it means your employer protected you from a storm let's not forget the privilege we already have, don't look down on your employer at this…

You have no idea what the families of H-1B visas are enduring. Someone just got engaged. Someone has a 7 month pregnant wife on H4. Someone has a student loan of $100,000. Someone came to India to handle her mother's surgery. Someone just bought a home on mortgage. Someone…

Is the sponsorship and money earned in Asia Cup (India Versus Pakistan match) more important than delivering justice to this father who sacrificed his soldier son in Pahalgam terror attack by Pakistan? Every tear drop should embarrass India. What a shame!

I still can’t believe that a humble Brezza with a 1500cc petrol engine and a BMW X5 with a 3000cc six-cylinder diesel engine both attract the same 40% GST. It’s a SIN to have both as they fall under SIN of 40% slab.

We’re told that buying cheap Russian oil was a masterstroke for India's national interest. But a stunning claim has emerged from US Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Bessent: Indians never saw cheaper fuel, while a few rich families allegedly profited $16 billion by reselling…

One final appeal! Requesting Shri @narendramodi, if blood and water cannot flow together, lets not allow cricket to suggest they can. Stop India from playing Pakistan in the Asia Cup.

I have an easy hack for non-kannadigas in Bangalore to get VIP treatment on cabs and autos. Rapido and Namma Yatri both have fixed 4-digit OTPs. Learn to say yours in Kannada and see the smiles you get for putting in the effort. Quick pronunciation guide ⬇️

tired: fix the memory leak wired: figure out how to run a cronjob with kubernetes to restart the service once a day inspired: write a function that panics and kills the service at a certain time every day which will cause kubernetes to restart the pod
