2017 is becoming a distant memory as I write this as 2018 comes to an end. The ending of a year doesn’t hold much to me anymore as reflecting on the time spent at any given moment is completely worth it. I’ll attempt to capture as much of the last year as I can and I hope recollecting events in a chronological order will help. Focusing on a few things at a time is a fantastic way to improve. After…
I have managed to outplay myself by reading zero books. On the side I have written nothing apart from what my job demanded. Life at Uber A year has passed since I joined Uber as the first software engineer joining the Bangalore office. This has been an exciting time for me as I had never worked in such a large organisation earlier. The amount of in-house tooling is nothing short of impressive and…
I usually do my yearly round up post on either the last day of the year or the first day of the new year, but this time I did not have my laptop around me. After working at Zomato for about a year and a half I decided that I wanted to move out to a new company. The exciting news from all of this is that now I am a Software Engineer in Uber and I also happen to be the first engineering hire from…

Deploying a Ruby application on a server of your own can get challenging when you wish to make the deployment procedure simple. Recently, I got myself a Digital Ocean account. My primary motivation of shifting to a VPS was to learn more about deploying applications and to be able to ship out my side projects. It would hardly take you a couple of minutes to get a droplet up and running. I quickly…
I am excited to say that I have joined Zomato as a Software Engineer. Over here I will work on anything and everything web where most of my work will engage me with PHP. In my free time, I will try to engage myself in developing tools to assist myself and team here!
Another year came to an end and I have learnt a great deal about life from this one. Coding was a major part of it but meeting people, living in a different city and learning about a new culture is definitely fascinating. The year started the very same way as each year starts. There was college, loads of work and a number of other things on my list which kept me busy. By June, I had the chance to…
Musket is the latest RubyGem I am working on. The project started off after I was fed up of writing standard files again and again. We front-end developers need to create many HTML files which have a standard structure. We also write a a lot CSS and JS, and most of these files have a similar starting point. As of now Musket doesn’t do a lot of things other than generating a file with a standard…
I finally wrote my first Ruby gem and it’s called HNsearch . All it does is allows me to search for users and items on Hacker News from my terminal. It was a great experience for me to write a gem of my own and if you like to work with Ruby, then you should write one too. What all did I use? HNsearch uses Nestful , Thor and JSON gems. Nestful is a simple gem that allows one to make requests. I…
