The absolute horror of the Siya-Ketan incident lies in the sickening asymmetry between them: Ketan’s pure, almost childlike innocence paired against Siya’s hollow, predatory sociopathy.
Four days before he died, Siya had already tried to murder him by shoving him off a cliff. Ketan survived only because a stray tree branch broke his fall. But he was so hopelessly, blindly in love that he swallowed her absurd lie whole, she claimed she saw a snake and panicked, pushing him away to "protect" him.
Instead of feeling suspicion, Ketan felt profound gratitude. He hugged his near-executioner, thanked her for saving his life, and proudly recounted the story to his mother and relatives. The entire family praised Siya as a hero.
To possess even a shred of humanity means you would be crushed by guilt after such an act. Watching a completely innocent person, someone whose only crime was loving you blindly, thank you for attempting to end his life should break a normal human psyche.
But Siya is a different breed of monster. Looking at Ketan’s grateful smile, she didn't feel remorse; she felt irritation. Her only regret was her own poor execution. She didn't see a human being; she saw unfinished business. Four days later, she lured him right back to the edge of that same cliff. This time, she brought reinforcements, her boyfriend. Together, they finished what she had started. Imagine the horror and betrayal Ketan would have faced in last few seconds of his life!
Siya has forfeited her right to exist in a civilized society. Yet, under our flawed justice system, she will likely walk free in ten to fourteen years. She will go on to build a comfortable, quiet life with her accomplice or some new, unsuspecting victim, completely unburdened by an ounce of remorse, carrying the secret of Ketan's final, terrified moments like a casual memory.
Back in 2015-16, I once accidentally deleted the "entire production" at Practo. Slight exaggeration, but here's what happened...
There was one EC2 server running the whole stack for one of the acquired companies. On a Sunday afternoon, while cleaning up unused servers from an AWS account, I deleted this EC2 by mistake, and there was no data backup.
The moment I realized (~4 hours later) what I had done, my heart dropped. Panic. Fear. A voice in my head saying: Maybe nobody will notice. Maybe just stay quiet.
I stayed quiet while the team tried to figure out who deleted the instance. When my manager discovered it was me, instead of getting angry, he spoke with me as usual and treated it like a normal mistake.
Thankfully, the data was not highly sensitive or mission-critical, but it still should not have happened. Of course, after the incident, we added the necessary guardrails to ensure we do not find ourselves in a similar situation again.
That day, I learned something important: mistakes are inevitable, and the best way to handle them is to face them.
One bad moment should not and would not define your career. A single accident does not erase all your hard work. What matters is what you do next.
People remember:
- Honesty
- Accountability
- How quickly you learn and recover
And I was trying to put mine under the carpet and hide it.
Hiding almost always makes things worse. It creates doubt and damages trust. Speaking up shows integrity. It shows others they can rely on you.
You are not the first person to make a massive mistake, and you will not be the last. We all have our stories. The key is to own it, fix what you can, and take one small lesson forward.
Fun fact: if you never touch production, you will never break production. But you will also never grow, never lead, and never build anything important.
If you want to build, you have to be willing to accept the times you break.
Bro we have seen Ronaldo score a World Cup hatrick vs Spain in a game where Portugal went behind 3 times
A hatrick vs Algeria in a one-sided game is supposed to impress us? 😭😭
PS: Messi should've been sent off. This is a fugazi hatrick
The USA is the only country in the world who can treat its guests like dirt and still host an international sports tournament.
This should be the last World Cup they ever get.
India’s IT ministry banned Telegram for one week because some users shared leaked exam questions.
This punishes 150M+ ordinary Telegram users in India — not the insiders who leaked the exam materials.
And the ban hasn't stopped anything. The leaks just moved to other apps.
There is a new scam by @IndiGo6E these days.
When you web check-in, they don’t show any free seat options to select.
If you skip seat selection and choose auto-assigned seating, they say you'll receive your boarding pass by email around 4 hours before departure. In my case, it never arrived.
When I called customer care to ask why the boarding pass wasn't sent, they told me that auto-assigned seating can only be done 12 hours before departure. If it isn't assigned by then, the airport has to allocate the seat. They also said they have no way to contact the airport.
So you are forced to reach the airport at least 1 hour early for physical check-in. If you arrive close to the check-in cutoff, they may refuse to issue a boarding pass and say you missed the check-in deadline.
Technically, there are no FREE seats for web check-in.
Everybody is out here scamming common people because apparently there’s nowhere for us to go and complain. Well done!
First ‘Made in India’ Chips!
A moment of pride for any nation. Today, Bharat has achieved it. 🇮🇳
This significant milestone was made possible by our Hon’ble PM @narendramodi Ji’s far-sighted vision, strong will and decisive action.

Projecting US as the greatest victim of india in trade . Dramatising. Fact is:
US deficit with China is $ 270b,
With EU $ 161 b, with Mexico $ 157b, with Vietnam $ 113.1b, with Taiwan $67.4b, with Japan $ 62.6b, with South Korea $ 60.2b, Canada 54.8b, Thailand $ 41.5b, India 41.5 b.
Usual untruth.

India- US trade in services was
about $83.4 billion, with U.S. services exports to India at $41.8 billion and U.S. $ 41.6b.
Total disaster?
India- US defence trade was virtually nil in2000. It has touched a total of almost $ 22 b in2024.
Why this whining?
The claim that we have offered to reduce our tariffs to nothing is true of some products but our redlines are firm.
Economical with truth and trading in falsities.
"We were Disappointed in the reaction of the Colombian Govt, which expressed Condolences on the loss of lives in Pakistan after the Indian strikes."

I didn’t grow up struggling, but iPhones still feel aspirational to me.
Meanwhile, everyone around me in their 20s treats it like a normal purchase.
How tf are people casually dropping a good chunk of their month’s pay on it? Either I’m in denial or seriously underpaid.
