  • Hooked by Nir Eyal: 10 Lessons

    Humans are creature of habits. Our daily lives and behaviours throughout the day are governed by habitual behaviours more than we would like to admit. But the more important point is that that behaviours can be manipulated, to an extent that it a makes you question your “free will”. There is a whole class of […]

  • Year End Decompress: 2020

    You look at where you’re going and where you are and it never makes sense, but then you look back at where you’ve been and a pattern seems to emerge. I just love this quote from the book Zen and and the art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Time keeps on flowing like a river. It can […]

  • Thinking in Systems By Donella Meadows : Reading Notes

    Introduction Systems thinking transcends disciplines and cultures and when it is done right, it overarches history as well. “If a factory is torn down but the rationality which produced it is left standing, then that rationality will simply produce another factory. If a revolution destroys a government, but the systematic patterns of thought that produced […]

  • Man’s Search For Meaning By Viktor E. Frankl : Reading Notes

    A very powerful read indeed. The book in itself is very concise and is divided in to two parts. The first part is about the authors experience in the Nazi concentration camp and the second part is an introduction to Logotherapy. Part 1 : Experiences in a Concentration Camp The writing in this part is […]

  • SketchBook #1 : “Size of The Moon”

    I love sketching for various reasons. One of the most prominent one is it makes you overcome the fear of starting something about which you don’t have full clarity yet. For me at least, when I sit down to sketch I have a general theme or inspiration in mind but the final rendered output is […]

  • Hackathon At UrbanCompany: Building a Chat Bot for UC Professionals

    At UrbanCompany we keep organising internal hackathons every once in a while. It’s fun as engineers take out some time to work on the craziest ideas possible and some of them actually do make it into production 💥 This time the hackathon was particularly interesting as the backend engineers were expected to build Android Apps, […]

  • What Exactly Was The Global Financial Crisis of ’08? : An Essay

    I profoundly believe that the historical events hold myriads of lessons for us to learn from. Given the current economic scenario where it seems that the writing is on the wall and the economy is going to go in a recession, possibly a depression, it made sense for a complete finance tyro like me to […]

  • Some Good and Simple Career Gyaan

    People when talking about things that matter to them, often show conspicuous excitement and zeal when it comes to sharing their ideas and views. Their scintillating brain emits ideas ready to be captured. You might not agree with all of them, but generally, they do qualify to be paid some heed to. Recently, I had […]

  • Reflections: Moving the Baseline and Keeping it There

    The zeitgeist of the recent times is not going down as halcyon days in the history books for sure. The kafkaesque events we are witnessing seem like the intimation of the even harder times that are yet to come.  And in times like these, it is everyone’s responsibility to play their part and help us […]
