Wikipedia defines blind cricket as “a version of the sport of cricket adapted for blind and partially sighted players.” Before yesterday, I didn’t know it existed. Shame on me! It is not every day that you get a chance to meet players of an international sports team. That happened to me at Disability Matters Asia Conference 2017, yesterday, July 28, where […]
The screenshot says it all. I did it! It’s a proud feeling. Now rather than rambling here, I’ve done that on the beautiful git repository I have created for my Ruby on Rails blog. Check it out – https://github.com/anuragbhd/ror-blog.
Ici je suis écrit en français. C’est mon prèmier blog en français: un effort sincère sans beaucoup d’aide de Google Translate. Je n’écris pas beaucoup mots que je ne connais pas.

Don’t let “edition” in the title mislead you into believing I’ve had a lot of fun trip to Bangalore before. But I’m hoping I will going forward.

Although the concept is not entirely unique, recent advances in web standards & technologies have now made it possible to create mobile-first web apps that work equally well on desktops […]
Stack Overflow is an interesting place. I have never really used my SO account, other than to ask a couple of meteor.js questions. That was 4 years ago! SO is something I visit almost everyday. I know you do that too, so keep that condescending smirk to yourself will ya? I think time has come […]
Finally the time has come. I had been avoiding it for years. I cannot escape it anymore. Finally the time has come to learn and embrace TypeScript. I am developing a small proof of concept mobile app at work. Creating mobile apps, especially hybrid ones, is not a big task anymore. Only this time instead of […]

What are you upto today?`)console.log (`Hello, ${firstName}. What are you upto today?`) So, I am learning Ruby these days. You have heard of this book, haven’t you? Learn Ruby the Hard Way. Me?

Say with me, “ASP.NET Web API allows only one body parameter in POST”. And again, “ASP.NET Web API allows only one body parameter in POST”. Now repeat it 100 times. It’s tiresome and probably utterly unnecessary. But that’s the only way to remember it. Believe me. I keep falling in the trap and repeating the […]
