After hearing about the death of Sinisa Mihajlovic, I had a moment of quiet introspection and ended up writing a short blog post.
Mihajlovic and the purpose of life

Food
The #hyderabad trip went well! Proper meat feast!
Also, loved the fact how well connected the city is. And you can get cabs in 5 mins! Awesome!
@trinsec Absolutely! I realised that after posting. My father never had to do these (except raising), ever. :-)
@Solelytuned Why? :P
Is there any #OpenSource #desktop application to manage equipments/parts catalog?
I want to find any equipment/parts fast enough. Please boost so that I can get more suggestions.
Noticing a very common theme.
Whenever asked to explain the algo or the analysis, most of the people start the sentence with "basically". Specially if they have been asked by their Boss. Used to think only I use that word quite a lot.
I wrote about one of my favourite Ghazals and the gatekeepers that we have in the society

@Solelytuned This is like brown household 101. And you can only chill in life after you get married, have kids, send them to college, and retire. Before that, it is irresponsible!
I've often wondered why open-source orgs like @mozilla @nextcloud #Canonical and others don't take a more active role in the fediverse. All of those orgs should not only be actively running #Mastodon accounts, but should also be posting content to #PeerTube and honestly even running their own instances of both. In the case of Mozilla, it would make a ton of sense for them to host both Mastodon and PeerTube instances as an open alternative to Google.
Thoughts on that?
@Solelytuned This is a common guilt among us (Indians)
Whenever we try to do something nice for ourselves, we feel this way.
Getting a job after a BE in Mech-Civil -Electrical in India is equivalent to getting likes in Bumble (for men). If you're in the top 1 percentile, there are ample opportunities. Outside that, there's nothing. Ironically, the first two fields are notoriously dominated by men, too.
Food, India, Food Politics

Did you have them bookmarked somewhere? Or you just googled them? ☠️
The United Federation of Instances project already has close to 40 overall contibutors, 13 Merge Requests, 16 topics being disussed, and closed to 50 overall comments on topics.... The #UFoI is really taking off!
Coffee Poll
If you decide to try it someday, do try the french vanilla or Hazelnut!
Also just remembered a story from your 'South Indians' claim. Once I came across a Tamil gentleman who pointed at the filter coffee I was having and told me it is not the 'original filter coffee'. The Chennai ones are the OG. Never have them though. :-)
