What it feels like

In anguish. In pain. Annoyed. People never seize to amaze me. Sinking to new lows on a daily basis. Am I the only one who makes sense in this crowd of blithering idiots? Or is it me alone who is senile unable to appreciate the random twats I come across? You may choose to close this window if you agree with the latter, (and they lived happily ever after) now. .
I try to come across as a very sensible, understanding, appreciative, and a helpful being which inevitably translates to something which portrays me in a light which frankly, shines weirdly. I have a sinking feeling that I was born into an age where my generation was the "new thing on the block" and I remained unaware that I was supposed to join the pack and instead remained glued to the old traditional values, or the backward, grounded, senile person. I have no doubt that the hipsters of today are fast and learn quick and act like geezers, but give a listen to olden values people! Act mature, not retarded! Its like an example I gave someone a while back, why run into a wall repeatedly in the dark rather than coming to your senses and discovering the door an arms length away? MAKE SENSE, PLEASE. However hard it is to point out to that rock-of-a brain of yours, try and realize that humans were created by one maker, with the capacity to reason, think, appreciate and make decisions on analytical, logical, sensible parameters which works well for the mutual benefit of our kind. Now, when each one of you has to lead this pack of imbeciles with expanses of blossoming idiocy, how is one to survive on this planet? Not having the best of experiences on this planet as such, will chose Fahtuk 78 next time, given the option. May peace be with you, try giving thinking logically a shot once in a white sun, will do me of all people a world of good! Regards to all, Annoyed Earthling.

Stirling retreat

A well deserved outing out of Glasgow, after three and a half months here saw me and the mates going to Stirling, a city, well, a very small city an hours drive from here. Not that we could have chosen a better day for the trip, the mercury plummetted to a bone chilling -5C! (Pic:In an animated discussion with his royal highness while the jester looks on) The main attraction of Stirling, the Stirling Castle, the place of cornation of the legandary Queen of Scotts, and witness to the wars faught by the Scottish heros William Wallace and Robert the Bruce against their English counterparts. The scenic beauty of the palace took us a while to absorb, so did the entry fee to the castle (still not recovered from it)! Well, it brings me back to our roots, as Indians. Not that we didn't build castles and forts similar to this one if not better, my point focusses on our stingy attitude. Having paid the amount for the castle entry, we cribbed on the fact whether we should pay an addit...

Understanding the job

Working with a product company, one of the bigger dilemmas facing the Product team is what to build based on the backlog of product items. Listening to a Harvard lecture podcast online recently, I came across a concept which helped me clear this dilemma. It simply asks a question- what is the job that your product is hired to perform? Ideas for the product you are building can come through various routes. We're going to lose this customer if we don't incorporate this now, this is something the CEO really wants to see in the product, it's been sitting in the backlog forever etc. But a very good way to go about prioritizing what goes into the product is to find the answer to the question- what is the job that your product is hired to perform? Imagine the product to be an employee who is hired for a particular profile. Now there are certain roles and responsibilities or KPI's which will define whether this employee is fit for the post. The same logic will apply to the p...

Da da daaaaa!

Have you ever thought about what scares you? Not the spooks scare, but the really scary scare, the type which makes you rethink what you are doing in life, make changes to offset the fear. Off late, I have got a few of those scary thoughts, which have made me change a few things, re-examine a few aspects of my life and re-arrange a few loose ends here and there. The first shocker came not long ago in the form of a health concern. It completely blew me catching me off guard. Its funny how all your worries and stress vanish away when the health of a person is in context. The nearest thought in the mind screams, dictating that you just stay alive, the rest we'll take care of! By god's grace and everyone's good wishes, we're back to fit and fighting stance this moment, aware of the fact that if this issue was hidden for a while, could have been drastic! The second incident which sparked me off is that of my future. I cannot get myself to explain in words what I am feeling, ...
