engineers looking for a switch should really read this reddit post, quite an insightful read. Link: reddit.com/r/developersIn…


Just woke up and realised this i think is my 20th year in Mumbai. A city I came to with very little, that’s given me everything. A passage from my book about the day i moved here :-)

Most tech companies break out product management and product marketing into two separate roles: Product management defines the product and gets it built. Product marketing wires the messaging- the facts you want to communicate to customers- and gets the product sold. But from my experience that's a grievous mistake. Those are, and should aways be, one job. There should be no separation between what the product will be and how it will be explained- the story has to be utterly cohesive from the beginning. Your messaging is your product. The story you're telling shapes the thing you're making. I learned story telling from Steve Jobs. I learned product management from Greg Joswiak. Joz, a fellow Wolverine, Michigander, and overall great person, has been at Apple since he left Ann Arbor in 1986 and has run product marketing for decades. And his superpower- the superpower of every truly great product manager- is empathy. He doesn't just understand the customer. He becomes the customer. So when Joz stepped into the world with his next-gen iPod to test it out, he fiddled with it like a beginner. He set aside all the tech specs- except one: battery life. The numbers were empty without customers, the facts meaningless without context. And, that's why product management has to own the messaging. The spec shows the features, the details of how a product will work, but the messaging predicts people's concerns and finds way to mitigate them. - #BUILD Chapter 5.5 The Point of PMs

Most Indians don't know how to fight, most don't know how to punch. All they do is throw slaps. Now I have said this lot many times, go enroll yourself in MMA. You don't have to become McGregor but if you just attend the classes for a quarter, you will he sufficiently trained to handle this scenarios. 1.) Never initiate a physical altercation 2.) Never let anyone come closer than 1 punch distance. 3.) If you can see that there's danger/threat decide if you can handle or you need to exit. You don't have to be a hero but for sure there's no benefit in being victim. When you will be sparring during MMA lessons, you will meet guys half your age and body and even with all the protection you will certainly feel blessed that you didn't have a physical altercation with them in public.




This British guy watched this movie on his way to India. Then in next domestic flight, we were discussing movies. He told me about this movie and how he loved it. I watched it next day. One of the most different, satirical, and beautiful movie I watched in recent times. Not surprised now it wins Oscars. One Battle After Another is a wake up call for people who start drifting away in their lives. Watch it.
