I can't speak for others but I chose Ruby/ Rails over Python/ Django, because the Rails community seemed bigger and much more active. This may not be necessarily true of course, but I took a look at Ruby and liked what I saw,

That seems absurdly low. I stay in Chennai and typical taxi rates run upwards of 18Rs per KM (approx 0.48US$ per mile). I agree there is a considerable difference in the cost of living, but what you likely paid the guy was a tip for the ent

No CS degree (B.Tech in Biotechnology). My very first job (in 2005) was as the System Administrator of my college, which was normally filled by CS undergrads. They had this supposed unbreakable new faculty portal and several CS profs and st

Just can't wait until tomorrow when it gets delivered. This is the first time in India we are getting this so quickly. Regarding Sanderson's books, it is amazing to see so much material come so quickly. May the Dragon ride again on the wind

A political statement would explain the one sided view of all that is abysmal in this country. I strongly believe that problems that are as important and need immediate attention can be found in any country. It just seems extremely pointles

Get surrounded by neighbours like India does, have your workplace called as chop shops, be the butt of several "stealing jobs" jokes and you will automatically feel a little touchy when some armchair critic sits and posts twenty things wron
