China – the miracle story
What China achieved in reducing their poverty numbers is worth admiring. Between 1978 – 2021, China lifted 800 million people out of extreme poverty. Unprecedented in human history.

About me
I am a Software programmer by trade and choice. I love building software products and tinkering with new technologies. I have over 12 years of experience in the technology space – from building apps to managing cross platform engineering teams.
My primary areas of interest are freelancing, cloud infra and software development automation. In a way all three tie into each other especially if you want to build functional products, so I don’t consider them to be distinct fields.
My go-to programming language is Python – it is so eloquent and feels like you are writing poetry.
If you think about it, Programming is such a magical concept. We literally invented a portal to talk to inanimate objects – Silicon. We instruct and command silicon to obey our orders.
The other topics that interest me are history, Hindu philosophy (primarily the Upanishads and non-dualism), consciousness and the intricacies of mind.
