Found this on my Tumblr blog. Migrating it here This is a poem that I wrote long long ago, as far as I remember. Probably during 12th Std or may be during 1st sem college. My Google Drive details say I uploaded this poem in Dec 2013. Now, I am posting it here. Thank God I got this :P Shadow and Friendship My shadow has always been a good companion.

I was walking with my friends on the road. Suddenly I smelled a rose from the other side of the river. I didn’t inform my friends and sneaked out and left them to go in the opposite side towards the river. The water was flowing happily fast. It was so hard for me to cross the river, but I crossed it. I ran towards the smell of the rose. I could finally see it from far away with lot of thorns around it.

This is a small writing I’m watching my series and some funny scenes come and I’m laughing and I imagine how it will be funny for you too I imagine about how you would laugh at it if you had been sitting near me I imagine how you would just slowly lean your head on my shoulders while laughing and then sit straight smiling I imagine how your hair, eyes and smile would look

This is a small writing I go to her place imagining what she’s probably wearing I see her waiting for me outside with the big basket of clothes As I approach her, I see her. There she is. In pure white. And she isn’t smiling. I wonder why I finally reach her. She hands the basket and gives me some shillings and then some extra and says “Just make sure it goes away.

Recently I have been noting down the commands I use :P I think it’s especially useful for commands that take quite some time for me to get right and I’m always searching the Internet or the command manuals or help text for the same thing again and again each time. And the search sometimes takes time - almost the same amount of time that took for me during the first time.

Actually, everything is about people. Including code. I remember reading about this in Twitter. Since then and up until now, I have seen multiple instances where I can clearly say everything is about people, including code. I mean, I guess we have made ourselves the centre of the Earth 😅 If we should be inclusive, I think the phrasing should be - everything is about living organisms. For this article, I’ll limit myself to talking about just code.

Recently I wrote about how I write for myself and mostly because I forget stuff. I think I can find more reasons to write - the more, the better. It’ll make me write more! So, I remember reading this concept of Learning in Public, but I just remembered the phrase not the whole concept later, until recently when I read this post about learning in public - and few other posts related to it

Sometimes, the craziest thing for me is - the amount of effort I put into something, some work, but how I do it all wrong because I don’t know some of the expectations of the work. It’s very crazy. In terms of Open Source, it has happened quite a lot of times for me I think. I’ll be working on a Pull Request to fix an issue. I’ll take an approach and then maintainers feel that the approach can be changed totally.
