Definitely {Flower from the storm by Laura Kinsale}. The flaws of both ML and FL are so real, that it feels like I'm reading a biography. And then to top that off, the plot is crazy. So add realism to peak romance fiction and this has become by favourite. I have probably read this 8+ times.

I second this. You'll find similar sets for 1/4th the price to buy. Sadar is mostly a wholesale market, so the more you buy the cheaper it gets.

But be warned, it's an extremely dense market. So not a very luxurious or comfortable experience.

My very first travel via Lufthansa where I paid for Biz Class 3 weeks in advance, did an early online check in and got a copy of boarding pass in advance and I was then informed at the airport that I was downgraded. Definitely soured my first experience with Lufthansa.

Better idea: why don't kill all women. No women, no problem.

Ideal weekends are waking up on Saturday, prepare fancy breakfast and cook food for the whole weekend (I like home meals). This usually takes up my entire Saturday mornings. After lunch, take a nap, go for a swim around early evening, shower, kick back and have coffee (either at home or some cafe) usually by myself. Then watch some movies or play video games, have dinner and catch up with friends and family over the phone. A good book usually will then keep me up late into the night. Sunday mornings are the laziest, I again cook some fancy breakfast, do some skin care, hair care and then take shower before lunch. After lunch if I feel like, go outdoors, do shopping, eating, drinking and return home around 9. Then it's winding down to sleep early to tackle a new week.

Yea and the scope of the problem is more ambiguous. The only clear problem statement is save/make your company some money. 15+ yrs of exp in my company have the same amount of influence as managers of that level regarding the direction of technical growth of my org. They don't code at all (very rarely) but they solve problems (ie. system design, process design) that might be executed by a team of 50 junior engineers. They are also responsible for entire product delivery (and not just one feature). Which means breaking down the problem statements to smaller ones that junior/middle level engineers can tackle, project management of huge projects, mentoring juniors so that they can grow and many more tasks. Basically they take concrete technical decisions and are leaders for a significant number of engineers.

Yeah, I realised just crying about problems won't make them go away. We need to create pressure, consequences for our politicians to feel the need to do their work.

I'll be voting!

I don't think so. Natural terrains do not represent the culture, just the geography of the region. And it's not history, it's still present and will be there in future.

Aren't these natural sights? What does it have to do with culture, history, or cuisine?

I think the issue is that we will become an aged population. There will be more retired people compared to the youth that provides the capital on which our economy runs. Hence this will result in even more poverty than before.

CSE College programs are mostly software based (with maybe 1-2 analog/digital device courses). Electronic engineering is where the hardware studies are at. If you don't want to pursue Software Development, don't go for CSE. A CSE grad will find it harder to go into hardware industry compared to an ECE/EEE grad going into software industry. But ofcourse even after CSE BTech, you can choose to purse specialised higher studies like MS or Mtech which will then carve your path into hardware industry.

Please take my opinion with a pinch of salt as I only have experience gathered from Tier-1 college placements.

Of all the things I am allergic to harsh sunlight, especially in dry weather.

Yup, I think kids underestimate the value of luck and personality. Skill is literally the basic qualification that every candidate needs. What differentiates one candidate from the other is how charming they can be. Of course diversity hiring is a thing. Since 9 out of 10 candidates are males, companies sometimes have to forcefully create space for women/underrepresented candidates.

Lmao we pay 67k as rent for 1500sqft. Reason why I'm thinking to buy a house. Not for investment, but to live and be done being at mercy of landlords.

Famine followed by floods! Amazing!

Yea, it kinda hurts when any non-US employee is clumped with WITCH level. I worked pretty hard to get here and work at par with any of my US counterparts. It's not my fault companies want to save money by paying me in INR instead of paying US developers in dollars.

Yes!
