Professional Services

I’m available as a freelance consultant. Here’s a list of services I offer. You can email me for details.

Open Source Is SHIT

Yes, that’s rightly mentioned in the title. I’m not a fucking good speaker but this link might be good enough for explanations on why ESR and his open source fundas are shit. Follow the facts, not the hype. Free Software has always been about user rights and RMS has done great job. For me personally, it’s been FSF because of which today what I am. Being a dumb chap from a rural town in a rural state of India and born in a complete business family, I had never dreamt of becoming a computer professional anyway. [Read More]

Ritesh Sarraf ticketed

So finally I got caught sleeping in the office besides my computer adjacent to the desk. Great days are these

Awake whole night doing work and taking subsequent naps in the day, especially in your cube at office is funny.
And yes, it also gets you good names like druggist, afimchi et cetera

Kalejee Daawat

I wonder if Kalejee Daawat is something enjoyable only during the bachelor days. Indeed, now, being in my bachelor days, I enjoy Kalejee Daawat a lot with Ankit. Having a gulp of beer and then munching the spicy Kalejee in the mouth reminds me of the great taste of North India.

Heartly thanks to Ankit and Nirmal for there awesome company and knowledge of such exotic places in busy Bangalore.

Why Debian

A small talk I gave about Debian and its merits at the ILGUD on 18th of April, 2004.

Sony DSC-M1

Purchased a Sony DSC-M1 recently. Man, proprietary stuffs are real costly. The storage device alone (1 GB) costs $200. But in total the camera is good to have. It’s compact, 5.1 Megapixel lens and blah blah blah. For an ignorant photographer like me, having a smart digital camera helps capture moments in good pictures to save them for future. Learnings, if possible try going for commodity stuff which isn’t proprietary unless you have the passion of spending money on “Love at first sight at $omething”. [Read More]
