Sugar

Consuming sugar feels so good. Going by research papers, sugar causes so many disease. At the same time, it is very addictive. Going by all the problem sugar comes with, sometimes I wonder why sugar is the center of our religious celebrations.

gatekeepers

Many jobs have a role of gatekeepers. It is a powerful role. Some get carried away with this newfound authority. It can be their inexperience, age or bias.

control

How many of us have got control over our life? How many of us are aware of our actions? Are we in control of ourselves, our actions? We multi-task, run errands, listen to a self-help book or practice keto or mindfulness. Why are we doing this? Is it because we want to do it or …

Right

How do we know we are right? How do we know that our history is not dubious? How difficult it is to not have an opinion? Can we not see this world as it is? Why do we have to fight to prove our superiority on account of caste, creed, color, race or money? How …

meetup

My first Linux user group meetup was in 2001/2002. It changed my life forever. It shaped my career, got me a huge network and shaped me as an individual. I can’t imagine where I would have been in life if I had not encountered Lug/FOSS. The network, mentoring and relationship have helped me in all …

ourselves

We are surrounded by people who have never done something in their life but have got a shit load of opinions. These are the so-called thought leaders, from sharing WhatsApp forwards to Facebook posts, they can be found everywhere. These opinions and thought leaders do more harm to society than the favor.
