During my final year of college, I heard that Javed saab was visiting our campus. With just a day to prep, we sang Tum Ko Dekha, Afreen Afreen, and Yun Hi Chala Chal as a tribute to him. I'm shy and the crowd was large but I was singing mostly for him so not much stage fright :)

@CultureCrave Huh. Makes sense. His voice did sound a bit raspy.

[Shashank @shank_hiremath]

@LeakerApple Disgusting behaviour

[Shashank @shank_hiremath]

The same applies to Bangalore sometimes 😭

It takes that one friend settled in US to visit Mumbai for all other friends staying in Mumbai to meet each other.

I'll say this and then daydream about leaving the digital world to live in the mountains or by the ocean

I've been advised to tweet more. Into the void we go.

The hardest part about this is the first step: writing down the problem

Whenever I find a mosquito in an innovative hiding spot, I clap. Unfortunately, my appreciation here is usually fatal.

A close NBA Finals game with an excited Mike Breen on the call is a top-tier sports experience

Actually crazy that we as a species, encode such rich, compositional meaning in the little doodles we make on the page. Writing is crazy.

Bangerlore was so much fun.

Thanks @namanski_ @neilshroff @5hroff @aye_kaash Shruthi @sva_haa @srijanshetty and Arnav for hosting this.

Crazy how much work went into this behind the scenes to make it the banger that it was.

@RangaSquared Some of us aren't built for such things

Staying up past 1 am is basically an extreme sport at this point 😵‍💫

I cringe every time I hear people refer to colleagues as "resources".

[Sidu Ponnappa @ponnappa]

a subtle but crucial change indian IT is going to have to learn

you don't hire resources
you hire talent

one word changes it into a different game

Opus 4.8 really likes the phrase "blast radius"

@aakancvedi Idk about B2B SaaS but RCB has B2B sass

[Shashank @shank_hiremath]

And across the men's and women's teams, that's now 4 trophies in 3 years.

From a franchise that spent 16 years hearing jokes about never winning one.

What a turnaround. This is a winning era. ❤️

[Shashank @shank_hiremath]

As a Bangalore boy, I've loved RCB ever since I watched the very first IPL game at Chinnaswamy.

After 17 tantalizing years of hope, heartbreak, and "maybe next year", watching the men's team win back-to-back trophies feels so goddamn good!! ❤️🏆🏆
