Is she the Finance Minister of India or the PR Manager of Modi? Nirmala Sitharaman ji asks an IAS officer to safeguard the flex & banners of Narendra Modi. #JustAsking, Is Safeguarding the flex of Narendra Modi the job of IAS officers? #RAMpage Vinod Kapri Prashant Kumar

Should you tell your boss, you are doing a crazy amount of overtime. TLDR; Yes. workplace.stackexchange.com/questions/1865…

Somewhat of a rant, but I really want to talk about UPI and ONDC, and especially the "digital infrastructure" of the country that the techno-sanghis have been using as the backbone for a patriotism-flavoured Twitter clout-farming of late.

As I moved to more senior roles, I had to explain many complex concepts to technical and non-technical people. I found better your diagramming and visualization skills are; there is a better chance of engagement and participation from others. Do more diagrams!

Following the ChatGPT, a new generation of coding-support tool will emerge. Once they get popular, writing code will be easier and faster. Then aligning on *what* exactly we want to build and *why* we build it will become more important than the actual building phase.

People with an income of 9L paying 2L in rent and getting 1.5L deduction under 80c and 50k under standard deduction were not paying any taxes in old regime. Now they will pay 45000 tax in new regime. Few understand this.

It took ~8yrs to go from v0 to v1 of python-dotenv, now used/recommended by flask, ray, pyenv, and uvicorn. The decision to have it do just one thing and do it well is a big part of its success. Also, please don’t break the APIs; people hate it. saurabh-kumar.com/python-dotenv/

If coding is hard, we're probably trying to move to fast. Signs we're trying to move too fast: 🚫 Rework 🚫 Inconsistency 🚫 Unclear tickets 🚫 Bad requirements 🚫 Weak code reviews 🚫 Rampant copy/paste 🚫 Poor communication 🚫 Few/no automated quality checks
