Dil Be-basi se aaj phir


Dil Be-basi se aaj phir,
Milne Chala toh kya,
Unko hamare dard pe-jab,
koi gila nahi.

Aasu se ghazal likhta gaya,
ghalib yeh Jaan kar,
Askoh ke qaid laakh magar,
Koi Rihaah nahi.

Hum bekhudi mein dhub gaye,
duniya se ruth kar,
humpe asar na chod saki,
Koi dua nahi.

Karta ellaaj main bhi agar,
aur-ro sa sochhta,
Jalta magar hai de-ir talak,
Koi diya nahi.

Gandhi ko pujata raha,
shukh dhukh sametkar,
paaye hazaar zakhmm mili,
Koi dava nahi.

English Translation:

So what if the heart is dying to
Meet her impatienely today,
As she have no clue,not at all
About the pain this heart is in.

Ghalib kept on writing poetrys
with his tears,much believing that,
There are endless reasons to make ,
One cry,but no freedom from crying.

I get lost in deep self-pity from
this insane world because there is
no single prayer or wish that have
came true or helped me up until now.

I would have lived as others if
I would be thinking as them,But
I didnt lie to myself because no
candle do burn forever.

I willingly walked on the way of
gandhi whenever I was happy or sad
As a result I found wound everywhere
I go, but no curable medicines.

Swimming against the tide 🏊‍♂️

Need a favor! I will not have asked unless it was urgent and required. So please I do expect your full support in return 🙏 Why?  What's Happening?  We have taken up a fight against all the big whales. It’s been a couple of years and the fight is getting intense. The market is tough because of Covid-19, the Ukraine war & the inflation in the USA. And of course, the whales are not liking it any better that we are trying to bring down their prices. So basically, I and my team at BillTrim are swimming against the tide 🏊‍♂️ and need a tonne of support to make it to the shore safely. We have recently pivoted our business model from trimming your bills and charging 25% to something quite more appealing & committed called " BillPay ". Now, we not only negotiate your bills but also keep tabs monthly to make sure they stay lean and paid on time. This is another step towards our goal of having BillTrim be free for all users. We have finally decided to get into fight mode a

Asking the RIGHT question

It's surprising how human communication is so flawed and no one is paying attention to fix it at the fundamental level.  Just like the languages in Technology are evolving, well so should our human language. But sadly the language we use daily, to get by, isn't evolving to simplify our needs. We do introduce new slang and some words to our vocabulary every year but that doesn't help much.  Because of this oftentimes it's not that the answers don't exist, it's just that we aren't asking the right question. And this is true when it comes to asking questions to a computer or a family or friends or colleagues etc. Even media houses seem to be intentionally ignoring this and becoming more of an entertainment+ gossip propagator instead of helping society find answers and evolve. Let me give you an example. Let's say we want to know an answer to: How do I lose weight? Well, the default behavior is we stop here and immediately start looking for answers. But inst

ASSumption of SCALE

During a recent Skype meeting with one of our lead developer, I heard him say "what if we have 100 times ... " Now don't get me wrong, I have been there and done exactly the same, various time myself. But not having been involved directly, gifted me an opportunity to look at the software development process a bit objectively, over the past year. And I have come to this, unshaken realization, which is to "stop daydreaming on SCALE" and consequently make costly assumptions that will leave its ripple effects throughout the project. Unnecessary "Tech Debt" in other words. Imagine a 10-year kid planning on opening a lemonade factory after selling just 10 lemonade, of which 5 are bought by own family and friends. This is not only naive but also super dangerous thought that developers think of more than they should, especially, young ones. I will like to remind and request all startup developers to remember a principle namely "Do Things that Do
