Life's rambling's in the short format.

As it's been ~3 years, figured I'll answer "What caused the Uber Eats glitch that allowed ordering free food for a weekend in India?"

This was an outage on my watch. Given Quora is paywalled - can't post the answer w/o a sub - here's the story on idempotency & breaking changes:

This cab (KA 03 AF 4774) is caught on camera driving in the #buslane on #ORR today at 5.19 pm between Marathhalli & KR Puram. Pls take action @blrcitytraffic @KRPURATRAFFIC. @Namma_ORRCA @WFRising @Dnekundi_rising @BMTC_BENGALURU

@NammaBESCOM Any update on when power might be expected back at Kaikondrahalli?

[maithun @Being_Humor]

Sir koi ijjat hai ki nahi aapki @rsprasad ? 🤣🤷🏻‍♂️

@spotifyindia My account hasn't been changed to Premium despite payment by Google Pay. Please resolve it asap.

@sagarsugandhi Did you transfer the UGA alumini sticker from your old laptop to your new?

[Nilayan Bhattacharya @nilayan_b]

@HULPureit I am still waiting for someone to look at my RO. Your authorised service center refuses to take my complaint because my device isn't registered, and I can't register my device online. Please look into it urgently.

[Nilayan Bhattacharya @nilayan_b]

@Unilever Your Pureit helpline number doesn't work. I am trying to register a complaint which doesn't happen because you haven't registered your device, and you can't register your device due to some error in your website. Is it that hard to even get paid servicing?

[Nilayan Bhattacharya @nilayan_b]

I have bought a lot of your products. However, this time, it's not been a pleasant experience so far. Please let me know a realistic estimate for delivery.

[Nilayan Bhattacharya @nilayan_b]

@Ankit_AGarg @InfiniChai @WakefitCo I ordered a bed on Aug 25th. The status hasn't changed since. All calls and messages lead to the same thing - order will be delivered in 2-5 days. I know delays are inevitable. But I do need a realistic estimate to handle other logistics.

@RonyDutta How many days before Dominik betrays his father?

[Nilayan Bhattacharya @nilayan_b]

@CocaCola_Ind Have you stopped the production of Limca?

[Nilayan Bhattacharya @nilayan_b]

@Airtel_Presence My postpaid sim hasn't been working for a month now. All calls to Customer Care goes to IVR and ends abruptly. If this continues, I might have to look for other providers. Please understand that having a functioning phone is critical for my business.

Some VIP thought an office time visit through Sarjapur road is a good idea.

[Nilayan Bhattacharya @nilayan_b]

Bollywood can hardly project itself as the flagbearer of progress in the country as long as junior artists & newcomers refer to their co-actors and directors as Sir/Ma'am. Seems the seniority culture that plagues the public sector and large IT companies is pretty much ingrained.

[Nilayan Bhattacharya @nilayan_b]

@UIDAI @Aadhaar_Care Any update? None of your offices or designated banks know what to do next.

[Nilayan Bhattacharya @nilayan_b]

@UIDAI @ceo_uidai My aadhar application has been pending for over 2 months now. I cannot find my application online. What is the next step?

[Nilayan Bhattacharya @nilayan_b]

I sent the details via dm.
