A friend from school once asked me (in a 'get together' of sorts), "Why do you have to use such a dicey name in Facebook? If you haven't done anything wrong what's there to hide?"

To that Dear friend, I have nothing to hide. But I don't like surveillance engines, simple as that. Do you know what the future might bring? Some 70+ years ago, people were systematically persecuted/exterminated because they were Jews, homosexuals, or gypsies or 'HAD VIEWS'. In the same context, I could be persecuted tomorrow for ranting about Modi's riots or how the Central BJP government did nothing about graham staines killing in Orissa or how Mukesh Ambani is eating India away etc etc

There have been so many different kinds of people who have been discriminated/exterminated/killed  against for so many different reasons throughout history and it still occurs today.

When you really think about it, it becomes clear that there's actually no reason to leave anything on a social network site after a certain point in time because no one sees it or they rarely see it. It just sits there waiting for someone to see it out of context and then it can cause you a LOT of trouble.

Wish I could move to the hills, live in a cave and....just sit there!

I'm always there in the 'so called' weekly meetings and here's how our CTO (google, nokia, MS alumni and the shabang) literally kills our software engineers - he's an awesome person BTW.

Some adjectives/sentences:

• "I'm not going to be fired because I have incompetent engineers in my team. Do you understand that?"

• "Brilliant"
• "Am dissapionted"
• "Am happy"

• "Why do we need to restart Jboss every time? I'm there with S...and this is a hotel which hosts Brad Pitt and the like. Why the fuck isn't our STB and App still having issues?"

• "We are not running an Aam Aap Aadmi party here. C'mon guys what the hell are we doing here?"

• I give him the, "Well, this should be done by next week" :D and Mr CTO says: "NO! I don't want a 'Well', I want to know a Yes or NO?"
• To someone from Hyderabad who is going for his weekly leave: "Look S, I appreciate you are going home for holidays (match making). But can you assure me that this build isn't fucked up?"

Some CTO's are just admirable...Our man here is ruthless :))

He's a Tamil BTW, perfectionists to the core! :)
