Excited to start my journey @Google Hoping to solve some billion-scale problems :)
I have joined the @GoogleWorkspace team and would be working on products like Docs/Sheets/Slides.

- It’s raining in Bangalore! #ORR @BBMPofficial don’t know what you do with all the tax we pay, this road is lifeline of BLR, and this is the state of it

- Replying to @theprogrammerin and @championswimmerAnother important aspect for live streaming of this scale is preparing for anything wild. When we had plan for IPL or WC, even though we know an ball park range of YOY growth of users in terms of CCU, but we also have a contingency plan for multiple scenarios… like.. 1/N
- As @nammayatri is scaling up, it is becoming harder to use it. The drivers have the same problems - want extra money, don’t want to go inside a society, etc. I don’t think any business model would make them happy, the only I see is strict laws, else take away their permits #india
- When you just automate without thinking! Over the course of time Swiggy app is going from being awesome to be buggy, a lot of poor design choices. @Swiggy
- Replying to @championswimmerI am not surprised with this crash. Netflix historically has tendency to complicate stuff. The only way to scale things is to keep them simple. Simplicity means to work from LCD of entire eco-system (clients, CDN, backend, etc) and then build from there.
- Since states contributing more towards tax are asking for larger share in return, should the individual tax payer do the same?
- Data scientists and ruby fans, try DARU as "tool" for your analysis. #Deccanrubyconf
- Replying to @theprogrammerin and @championswimmerScenario 2: What if there is zonal internet backbone failure? Expectation- Internet traffic can take longer routes to reach to devices, quality degradation, more rebuffering #LiveStreaming
- Classic example of poor engineering is @HDFC_Bank smartbuy, the intent is good, but product/engineering don’t get requirement. If you ever try to book flight from their, it only shows the cheapest fare from each travel portal, and that fare is non refundable and 0 baggage 😅😂
- If the @BlrCityPolice was 50% this diligent for every day, the life of every citizen in the city would have been better. #BangaloreTraffic #VIPCulture #VIPMovement
