Weekly Notes 02/2023

One big rule we follow at Peppo team is – Be Nice to each other and everyone with whom you work. It makes a lot of difference. If you look at DataMeet’s code of conduct. It’s the first rule. I sincerely believe in it and take it wherever I go. We can’t build organizations or teams without being nice to each other. When I see broken teams, most often than not, this is the rule that would have made a difference. Whats your one rule while working in a team?

Welcome to the new year. We are still in Thrissur, though I am in Mumbai today for a short visit. I am back in Thrissur tomorrow night. We should be back in Bangalore next week.

Weekly Notes 52/2022

We were supposed to be in Bangalore tomorrow, just in time for the new year. But Anju’s grandmother passed away this morning. She was 90+ years. She had a wonderful life filled with grand-kids, great grand-kids. Death was peaceful. Her image in my head is always of the person reading the newspaper in the morning.

Weekly Notes 51/2022

We are in Thrissur. It took us eight hours to reach Thrissur from Bangalore, which is a bit faster than last year or so. Primarily due to the Kuthiran tunnel. The tolls have also increased quite a bit. I will have a page to track it.

Weekly Notes 50/2022

Since I write weekly notes and there is a week number in the title, I pay attention to how fast the time moves. It’s been an excellent way to keep track of time. We are just two weeks away from 2023. Happy holidays folks.

Weekly Notes 49/2022

This post is my 67th blog this year—the highest number of blogs in a year since 2009. I can only see it growing as I move away from social media. Currently, I use Twitter and Instagram, but my usage has reduced drastically due to blogging here and @thej@social.thej.in. I don’t remember when I logged into Facebook. So, all in all good.
