Minting Money

Ever thought who is minting money even in this recession. Its not those intellectuals , its not those businessmen,

Its the Actors, Cricketers and the Politicians.

Just imagine in the current scenario where earning a dime is such a tough thing how these guys make so easy money with no basic education.

I wish  my parents have had let me play cricket all the day when I was young and not forced to study all the while..  I neither was able to learn the skill of cricket nor did I excel in studies. :)

A Year to forget

Year 2020 came in silently into our life like a serial killer, no one would ever suspected what it had to offer. If you survive this medically, mentally or monetarily you should be happy. 2020 has hit everyone like a tsunami, and only a few will make it alive to remember this.   It has been only 6 months of 2020 yet the causality are very high. Like any other year it started with a New year well celebrated across the world, however the happiness was destined to last only a few days when the first few cases of corona were recorded in the Far East.

The Repatriation Ordeal In Corona Times

The AirIndia Express flight to Chennai was at 1150hrs on 1st July. I have been one of the lucky few to get a ticket home in the 4th phase of Vande Bharat mission from Dubai to Chennai. In normal times a 2hrs or 3hrs pre arrival at airport would have been sufficient.  However these are different times and we came 5hrs before expecting too many formalities. The arrangement at Dubai terminal 2 was adequate. Social distancing well maintained with chairs spaced for seating, An initial rapid test conducted and a sticker on passport mentioning “FIT TO FLY” After this we were directed to check

Top 10 Cloud Vendors

I came across this blog post by Peter Laird ( Blog link ) which I found to be an interesting way to rank the cloud vendors but since this list had been prepared almost 2 years before, I decided to give it a shot now to see how the ranking had changed over time. Based on the methodology used by Peter I did the following : Cleared all browser cookies Ensured I was logged out of Google (to avoid personalized results ) Navigated to the www.google.com search page Typed “cloud computing” in the search box However unlike Peter I did not browse through all the pages but restricted my ranking until I found 10 vendors. The result is as follows. From the search results scrubbed off all non vendors and then collected the first occurrence of each of the following vendors. Page Rank Vendor URL 1 1 Salesforce http://www.salesforce.com
