This is something I compiled long back.

New place, new face
As I reported before, I have moved to “cloud” based hosting from eApps. Moving to “cloud” was no easy task, and more than once it knocked the lights out of me. After many tussle and numerous tickets, rackets, hair uprooting exercises and under the hood tweaking, I guess now I can rest easy.
To celebrate this occasion and to save myself from further boredom of using the old theme, I have moved to this new theme. Hope you enjoy this. 🙂
OOh, BTW, the Bengali tag line under the banner is the literal translation of Apple and phonetic transformation of Grew. So, the Bengali text should be read as – Aaa-pel Gru. 😉
Skateboard India
This is a short film, shot mostly around Bangalore. Has awesome cinematography.
Tribute to René Magritte
René Magritte was a well known artist. Frankly I didn’t know him before I saw this tribute video. He is well known because of his thought provoking arts.
<Video missing>
Anyway above is the tribute video.
You can find more on him at Wikipedia and on Artsy’s René Magritte page.

When I heard this song for the first time, I didn’t like it at all, because my roomie sang it to me. His “singing” was rather a recitation and that too it in a coarse way. When I heard the real song, it was, well really catchy.
The video song UTV have relased is non-the-less really unique and fitting to the song. View it above.
Why The New Guy Can’t Code
Read the link above to know how IT companies’ technical interview should be. Not asking some quiz. It is really frustrating when you are asked such questions in interview which you know is never going to be needed in the job. When you get reject because of those questions, and the interviewer chooses to ignore your real-world skills then it becomes darn frustrating.
I remember getting screened out of Amdocs’ first round of written exams because of some maths question! How the hell maths question decided how my CS knowledge is? They might reason that there are too many candidates and interviewing all is not possible; well if that is so then why not use lucky draw? Because such arbitrary questions and lucky draw will give same result, and lucky draw is easier to conduct. Well yes, lucky draw will draw much more criticism, so we are bound to see such arbit questions anyway.
So, all the best job seekers.
