Bhagavad Gita. Sure why not. India does not have enough problems. Its still not recovered from the caste system. Why not bring the strict version and fuck it up like the pre British era.

And please do not spread the lies on British for the caste system. The varna system(caste system) is the basis of the vedas(hindu religous book).

For those who wants to know what the caste system is, read this essay by an scientist and activist https://ccnmtl.columbia.edu/projects/mmt/ambedkar/web/readin...


My dear friend, throwaway-account-created-just-to-comment, I have also read Mein Kampf[1] a few times. Will you now, assume, I trying to be a Nazi or practice anything in that quadrant.

I'm reading up on religion, so I can understand or at-least try to understand, why some people are so tangentially religious that they will flip and take sides and have to be part of something to defend their thoughts.

Religion or beliefs are weird and many a people tend to get sucked in so bad, they neither see logic nor reasoning to try to be see the various sides/perspectives and what-ifs.

Now, I know why my wife always warned me before going to parties and social gatherings, "Do not explain topics to people even if they are wrong and you are right." No wonder, she is the go-to person whom everyone wants to tell their fun/sob/love stories but she never pass on any of the messages or talks about anyone to another. ;-)

Nope. It happens but not so easy. Its the mindset of most managers especially managers with non coding background.


I have given up on providing feedback to managers. I realized people does not change much. Most managers want to assert power and as an IC its hard for me to accept authority of manager considering my skill level compared to my manager. The best way to deal with manager is always discuss the requirements and nothing more. Your teams feed back is more worth than manager feed back on performance rating. I don't know who came up with this practice but I am grateful to them. This junior developers don't realize for a long time. Any one who has not demonstrated as a good developer is unfit to be a developer's manager.
