   This is very smart & creative. Without stealing any bit of thunder from OP, there are Free/Open CDNs to host entire Blog package. All you need is a device/machine to generate static content & push them to these free CDNs (

   IMHO - Give me a coding exercise that is needed for a day-to-day life in the target job, I would take it & no hard feelings if I fail. I do not believe Google/Facebook engineers are solving Binary tree problems everyday. Future is

   This is really cool. Imagine we build non-relational simple read-only APIs powered by s3 with lambda authorizing, filtering, paginating requests? We have another lambda function poplulating s3 for writes.

   I wish people use this trick to create dent in the universe. For eg. use face of pretty young girls to bring positive changes in the planet - assuming everyone wants to follow young girls & believe in what they say.

   Well, The UI, Logo etc., feels like my browser blocked me from going to sponsor.ajay.app url - insecure, evil site. I closed the browser window. But went there again to see what it says.

    1. How are you blocking someone from uploading millions of files programmatically? 2. How do you know someone is from small audience of good-faith? 3. What if a file has virus and corrupt all the files on your end? If you don't need au

    Never tried this wine. The $5.99 Pinot Noir (Russian River Valley) from Trader Joes is pretty good. But taste of wine is very personal.

    If it is common service used across the company, writing service makes sense as teams can use different programming languages to consume it. Libraries expect everyone to use same language or that library has to be recreated in other languag

    Refactoring of software is here to stay, whether it is monolith or Microservices, we need to refresh the codebase based on changes in use cases/product, technical evolution & new learning. Software is a living thing. We need garde
