That article is littered with expressions like "voice enable", "call center". According to MSM any living organism getting within 10 meter radius from a PC counts as a IT worker. So that article is bullshit. So, according to the author, one is discouraged to be a low end coder, b...

Coupled that with broken corporate hiring process, social cost will be very high.

Reduce hierarchies. Standardize on roles. Introduce and enforce regular examination and certification measures. But these will not happen as there are vested interests. Any kind of examination/certification model, even if just graded instead of outright pass fail, will expose vast majority right fro...

SRoy, you're generalising. I've knowledge of how that 'Brit' bank was used to send suitcases of cash overseas. All foreign banks that were engaged in that business had to stop. Real estate has suffered because of two reasons - regulation and demonetisation. Greed of the builders in collecting cash ...

SRoy

^^ So, the fire is spreading. Many of the private banks have been quietly closing down branches. This is a first hand experience, because I had account with one of them (big name ... Brit bank). Bringing down 12-16 branches down to 2 is a big cut. Where these people would go is anybody's guess. Many...

If CPEC succeeds, PLA would enter the scene to protect their investment. Sooner or later PLA divisions would start pouring in Paki Punjab, Norther Areas and Sindh. PLAN would berth in Gwadar.
Looks like a plan to me.

rsangram is correct in one respect, albeit partially. Partition was nothing but a land deal. What if the Brits disagreed to territorial division? There would have been a full blown civil war. It would have been better. We would have lost more, Punjab and Bengal complete graveyards (I wouldn't be typ...

@GitHub, I have few personal projects and one FOSS project where I used to contribute in spare time. For the FOSS contributions, I had to obtain permission from the legal. FOSS part made sense to the legal because, we used to maintain a customized fork of that stuff. Have stopped working on that, bu...

With FOSS tools one has to be an administrator and a developer rolled into one. On *NIXs the dependency hell is way lot worse than Windows DLL hell. Unless there is something wrong with basic OS packaging itself, dependency issues can be resolved by building components from sources. An average "...

Difficulties in India?

Which means if someone were to put up a venture that caters to Indian pricing would thrive? No?

SRoy

Unfortunately true. Few years ago, I made a minor modification to my old laptop. Swapped out the DVD writer with a SSD. The trick is to find a HD caddie that interfaces with the optical drives pin outs and also should be in exact dimension as the optical drive itself. The SSD just fits inside the HD...

Sorry, I'm not on tweeter.

A nationalistic govt. should have sacked and punished responsible people at NCERT for sedition.

This govt. is a complete failure when it comes to national security, internal and external.

But there is already a nationalistic govt. at helm for three years? Isn't it?

^^ Electronics/Electrical techies are already best suited for IoT. So, that avenue is already there. For other opportunities like AI or such like you need lots of CS folks. So, I don't think enrollment for CS and ECS should drop down. It will be our loss if it happens. IT companies need a basic stru...

KM themselves are unfortunate victims of the social order, upheld by Kashmiri Pandits, that prevented their re-entry back in to Hinduism.

Kashmiri Pandit behavior and its aftermath is warning example for self appointed gatekeepers of Hinduism throughout rest of India.

Punjab and Kashmir are different, because Sikhs and Muslims are different.

No one is worrying. Kashmir is not going anywhere.

Just wondering what the endgame is.

SRoy

Kashmir now is a war of attrition.

We can bleed the infantry, given our surplus manpower.

Or we can go full fledged and shorten the agony for all sides.

SRoy

A longish post alert. Kashmir has undergone a sort of irreversible change. A common Kashmiri Muslim has radicalized to the extent that they no longer have any emotional connect with anything non-Islamic. As a kid during 80s, when dad was posted at AFS SriNagar, we used to freely wander into Kashmiri...

Interviewing and selection procedure itself are important soft skills. People are introvert or extrovert by nature and you cannot change that.
