certainly. But, once you have ploughed in your savings and buy a car with a high interest loan based on glittery promises made by Uber, you are forced to work for Uber, like a slave, because you have to pay off the loan. Ask any uber driv

If "DuPont culture" mentioned in the comments is true, I hope they help Bhopal Disaster victims get the justice they deserve. Bhopal Disaster happened because of Union Carbide(wholly owned subsidiary of Dow chemicals)

This, written by an expat, who lived in an AC home, travelled in an AC car, and probably worked had leisure activities mostly in an AC environment. So, how would a common Indian citizen feel in Delhi? I don't know. But based on my few

I hate puzzles. I hate puzzle/trick questions. I have been programming for more than 10 years. Usually when I interview with a company, I am upfront with them when they present me with a puzzle as part of the interview process, and tel

Stopped eating frozen food and reduced salt. Frozen food contains a ton of sodium, which is a great preservative. I started eating out more often because of this, which is not low on Sodium, but its not as loaded as it is in the frozen food

"Anecdotal evidence" is acceptable if everyone said salt is healthy and I claimed otherwise. btw, my diet, even though had a lot of frozen food, wasn't loaded with carbs, and was sufficient in protein. Back to the point: When

It works here in US too. Wave a few $ bills at a packed bar, you'll get to order your drinks quickly. (usually those dollar $ bills go as tip). In India its almost always like this at most of the local grocery shops, vegetable vendors

Its definitely cheaper because 1) UberX is covered by personal insurance, drives a lot of other people around (hence the cost is shared over many rides). Your personal car also is covered by personal insurance but drives only "you&quot
