I have never used those words during an interview. Yes, people use those words often and genuinely mean it more often in America than in other places. No, you will not get the job if your interviewer thinks that you're lying!

Facebook wants to show you ads. You want to see updates from your friends and family. Facebook will come up with a clever way to show you updates from your friends and family but not all at once and not all at the top. So, you'll have

The reason you don't hear about it much from your Indian friends in Canada is because it isn't a part of daily life for Indians in Canada. In Canada, even the priest has to wash his clothes, clean his toilets, and feed the pets an

Discriminating based on caste is racism. Actually, the Brits used the caste system to their own advantage* and discrimination based on caste didn't become outlawed until the Indian constitution was written post-independence. * https:&

Issue with the banners is that my answer is always, "no". Yet, I have to do a lot of work to say, "no" on every single website. This makes it inconvenient to explore the web at large. The banners should be opt-in not opt

You have to give credit to someone who is willing to put their neck on the line in such a public way. Best of luck, and I hope the competition pushes us all forward!
