  • Life is interesting. Even on the most mundane boring day I can entertain myself in my thoughts. I don’t really get extreme mood swings like when I was a teenager. No matter how sad I am it doesn’t feel like the world is over. It’s enjoyable to exist from the small things like sun shining on my skin to the milestones.

    If my life ever changed and I was struggling with no chance of getting back on track I would consider changing my outlook.





  • I didn’t actually delete the data but for a solid 1min I thought I had deleted an entire production db of data.

    I made a delete then I hit refresh and nothing came. I refreshed again and no records panic started to set in and I refreshed again and still no records. I knew that changes replicated over to our quick backup every min so I picked up the phone and when the guy answered I said I need you to turn off the replication right now I think I just deleted the ministry of health.

    After a bit of troubleshooting it turns out the data was fine and my delete worked as intended. The issue was in my client and we checked a few things then gave up. I went for a long lunch after that.

    The biggest actual mistakes I’ve done were all caught by a really good manager i had and so I can’t even remember them because they never blew up.






  • I know India has a booming tech sector and produces tons of great engineers which is cool. I hate their scam call centers its disgusting.

    I’ve never been but I’ve seen traveling vlogs and the news and it looks so unbelievably polluted and gross. With all the money and education I would expect basic infrastructure to be in every city. The country still has a lot of natural beauty and historical sites well preserved, big respect for that.

    As for generalizations about the people. I see a lot of videos of indians mobbing and doing crazy acts. When they are abroad they tend to mostly interact with other indians and shut others out but generally follow the law and arent violent. Women’s rights are pretty awful. Sellers are too pushy.

    In general my perception of Indians normally comes from the ones I’ve met who grew up in New Zealand and I have a good perception of them. When I have to exclude that and only think of India as a country my perception is very negative.
