I’ve been writing on and off for quite sometime now. Whether it be this blog, my personal journal, emails or just simple conversations, I’ve felt that my expresiveness and capabilities have improved over the last few years.

November 25, 2015November 25, 2015 sudshekhar02Leave a comment

Today, I saw the trailer of Captain America – Civil War. Watching this trailer (which is amazing), reminded me of the Batman v Superman trailer, so I saw that too.

Overspecialization or Overgeneralization

November 25, 2015 sudshekhar02Leave a comment

As software engineers (or even as humans in genera), we are all faced with this dilemma.

Writer’s block

August 3, 2015 sudshekhar02Leave a comment

The funny thing about a writer’s block is that it strikes at a very convenient time. Right when you have time to waste, time which you can use to think of a new story plot or write a great blog post, you just don’t feel like doing it.

Today, I almost decided to leave my job. No, I am not kidding! I was sitting idly at my desktop staring at pictures of all my happy facebook friends.

The fascination with minimalism

July 11, 2015 sudshekhar02Leave a comment

Haven’t you felt a sense of peace when staring at an empty white room? A room devoid of every kind of distraction, a room that seems almost made for meditation?
