Sounds very interesting. Just wanted to know how key is the gaming experience for the product management gig and also if you are open to H1B sponsorship.

Well, first of all HP is not seen as a pusher of cheap laptops and crappy printers. (Check out the Envy14 and you'l l know why). Next, expanding into more profitable software avenues need not always come at the cost of abandoning the core i

I should have been more specific. When I say a global company, I mean that every aspect about the company should be global. Having an office in every part of the world doesn't make the company a global company if almost all of the leadershi

Well put. Who in HP's board made the brilliant decision of bringing in Mr ex-SAP as the HP CEO. 1. The dude has no experience running a consumer oriented hardware business. 2. He hasn't run a global company. (SAP, for all it's glory is stil

I don't think there's any such language called 'Vedic'. I don't know about other classical languages but the emphasis in Sanskrit is on object properties and not on the object itself. Yes it does have nouns and verbs but nouns are not bound

All said and done - it's fun to work with talented women :). Hiring women just for 'joy' factor is crap. There's one more quality - with the right input, women tend to foster team building and sharing qualities not only in themselves but in

Another point to be noted. Wearing any sort of shoes with heels will increase the pain in the legs. So it's better to wear flat soled shoes. Am talking from my personal experience. I took to the extreme end of standing all day but I couldn'

Is it just me who finds this 'rebate' quite preposterous. Without sounding too critical about the government measures to reduce healthcare costs, I want to point out to this TED video about a chain of hospitals in India and how they have ma

Well Appe will just use Nvidia chips in the new set of mac airs. I think the author overstates the damage by saying the ruling will impact the entire mac line up.

Well, "Few very smart people" does not really correlate to 13 CEOs of the top Fortune companies. Also, how is population related to this ? Europe also has a population of about 850 million - how many CEOs has Europe produced ? I mention Eur

But why would those people with nice equipment who take great photos want to give the photos to you, or anyone for that matter. They might be willing to share the photos but am not sure how that really helps. Will they allow you to share th

Yep, 2005 was the era of Spring and Struts 1.0. Now, if that was not enough, someone in our project had built wrappers around Spring !!!. Key requirement for reading through that code - a bottle of scotch.

The article mentions the destruction that's caused by EMP. One of the foremost sources of EMP is a nuclear explosion, I don't think there are any conventional explosives that can 'turn on' an EMP.

Well, to put things into perspective, a couple of years back I asked a pakistani cab driver if this 'anti India' sentiment is prevalent in Pakistan and he gave an unequivocal yes. He belongs to the free-thinking tribe. What I've said here i

Couldn't agree more. However, for Pakistan and it's people, hatred towards India is a way of life. That's their inspiration, that's what they live up to. They possibly don't have any economic, social or technical goals to look up to. In suc

I don't even know half of what the optometrist's office does. The bright light that shines into your eyes, the pupil dilator, all seems unnecessary. Those alphabet tests - really, the difference between two different 'powers' is so minimal
