Hi. I am the author of that article. I'm still trying out my hand at writing. I posted it here to gather feedback and comments about it. Thanks in advance.

I had a recent interview where it literally went like this:

He: "Hi. My name is [X] from [Y:company]. We were scheduled for an interview now."

Me: Yes.

He: "Ok. Am I audible?"

Me: Yes.

He: "Cool. [Answer this question]"

Me: baffled screeching

He talked about a lot of things then including "How does Node.js manage it's asynchronus thread? Where is the sequence of functions to run stored in the memory?". In the end I asked him what was a general day like. To which (no kidding) his reply was:(sad tone) "It's Friday 6pm. Everyone is having donuts and here I am taking this interview".

Well, if you're more concerned about your donut, thanks I guess. I got rejected after this round.

---------------------------

I'm looking for backend work, Ruby on Rails preferred. I have experience in the e-commerce, SaaS and B2B media domains. I've worked on Shopify, custom Rails CMS and engines, written my own micro-CMS in Rails. Experience ranging from design to deployment (Github/Gitlab/Bitbucket, CI, docker, Nginx), BDD (Rspec), A/B testing.

Upon googling "micromax market share", the first article that comes up was written on March 16th, 2016 [1]. That shows a dwindling market share. Other articles share same opinion. Although, the company has funded a new campaign[2] and the new Canvas series of smartphones from them look promising while maintaining a low price point.

PS: Apart from a handful of friends who own Micromax phones, I have no interest in the company whatsoever.

I played around with Blender when I was in college back in 2012-2013. Cycles render was just introduced back then. Blender and it's community has come a long way since then in this short span of time.

My starting point was http://www.blenderguru.com/ (for general tips and tricks), reading about ray tracing(for understanding why my renders were not up to the mark), anatomy of physical shapes(for sculpting) and watching a lot of behind the scene VFX breakdown videos(to understand their construction). Frankly, my humble computer back then was not capable of running 3DS Max or Maya.

Apart from this, a lot of articles regarding photography helped. A keen attention to detail and huge amounts of patience is required(while watching your renders take hours if you have the wrong graphics card).

Hmmm. Nobody talking about other apps that do this? Talking about Tinder[1] for example. They require "Device ID and cell information" too.

Same here. 4am on the best days. But the thing is I wake up, no matter what, after 5 hours of sleep. And then by 5pm I'm dull and red-eyed. Good again by 8pm to continue the cycle upto 4-5am. Terribly frustrating.

Comedy is the best way to make a point.

Anyone else noticed he forgot to include the Google Analytics code from the template? :D

As someone who's struggling to not fall into depression, I think this will do wonders for me. I've come to believe that the trigger-activity-rewards cycle[1] is the best for productivity and improving my focus.

This product might come in handy in the "rewards" phase of that cycle. PS: Requested and invite through your website. [1]: http://www.ted.com/talks/judson_brewer_a_simple_way_to_break...

I've been procrastinating a long time to write an article similar to this. I've been using the generator since v1.x.x. Nice write up!

I even wrote a rails console-like equivalent for the older version[1]. Didn't get time to write a new one though. Will be a good addition to the generator I think.

Web developer (recently started on Nodejs, prev: Rails).

Side projects include evaluating the use of NginX as an app server (ref: open-resty). I am overwhelmed by the abundance of web frameworks available and the never-ending list of tools/libraries to learn.

That's debatable considering your current position in the society and your point of view.

Bam! And I thought I had no work here after reading the first line. This is great. One email. On it's way sir!

They really didn't think about people with specs or is it just that they're not marketing that aspect?
