Proud moment! Our impact in Indonesia recognised by @BillGates and @melindagates, to me this is what makes GO-JEK a "Super App", the difference we make to peoples lives.
In our new Annual Letter, @BillGates and I share some of the biggest surprises that have called us to action. m-gat.es/2E6VriE
@Swiggy terrible experience. 2 hour delay in delivery and no communication at all. At least there should be proper communication. Even though the delivery exec had decided to not deliver, your automated chat kept assuring delivery in 5 minutes.
It was a huge wish to watch a Japanese movie with as wonderful cinematography as the one below, on the big screen. Hardly any theatres screen Japanese movies. Today, am not in Japan, but this wish has come true. How spectacular, such vivid colors, such good use of the light!
How can someone make cinema look so good?! Never seen anything look so stunning, gorgeous and beautiful on screen. Released way back in 1995! What a hidden gem, youtube.com/watch?v=1Swtp1EP… Lucky the folks who actually watched this on the big screen, must have been unforgettable.
Thirty years apart, Japanese movies still have the same amazing cinematography, and the leads still write letters, even in 2024 :-) Left is 1995 "Love Letter" and Right is 2024 "April, Come She Will". Glad that some things never change!
On the right is one of the places she goes to as she travels the world. youtube.com/watch?v=_PklViab… Didn't even know such a place existed! What a stunning place!
Amidst all this frenzy about Coldplay, they are my fav band; sad knowing they won't be around in a few years, but then to discover a new band, catching up on their fantastic playlist! Life never ends! When one thing ends, another begins! youtu.be/qu2QXKDNoWs?si=1qMM…
My early mistake as an EM was not being comfortable with abstractions regarding architecture/systems. I needed to know everything. Which was a strength as a dev. But as a manager, it took time away from other important things. So many things to unlearn when you switch roles!

There’s something about being raised in Bombay, especially in the 90’s and 00’s (pre social media era) that I cannot explain to people who moved there later as adults. The socio-cultural landscape, absence of homogeneity & trauma that created cohesion in communities was special.
I love the interviewers who truly welcome you and look to have an engaging discussion. Some just try to get on with it, which is something I understand, folks take so many interviews, it's hard to be warm and personal always! But to the ones who still do, you are special!

Form is temporary, class is permanent.
You’ve got this. One day at a time, one foot in front of the other
You’ll look back on this period with a wry smile soon enough
15 yrs back, "What would you be if not a programmer?", and I said jokingly, "Psychologist", as I would have been debugging humans instead! Little did I know that years later, as a manager, debugging people would actually be a key role for me! :-)
I think we all believed Virat Kohli would play his best in the final. Didn't want to jinx it. He delivered. It was a struggle but made a difference. This was obviously his last T20 WC. Glad it has ended this way for him.
At 30 required from 30, the match was so against India. It's not easy for a bowling side to defend that. You can't attack, and defence won't help! This was a really good context, absolutely deserving of a FINAL,happy it was not a one-sided contest. Well played SA, Congrats India!
Ah that explains! I just couldn’t understand before why he would play that kind of shot, didn’t make any sense, but it does if he was expecting a different delivery! CLEVER!
This win makes me very happy. Such a great commentary there, too good.
That's it! That's the game for Afghanistan! 🇦🇫🔥
A historic moment St. Vincent, as upsets continue to stun the #T20WorldCup2024! 💪🏻

Wow! The kind of debugging I love! Chanced upon this old article on how they went about debugging a really tricky issue, fantastic read making.close.com/posts/relia…
Every bowler takes wickets. But the thing about @Jaspritbumrah93 is that his wickets are so enjoyable! The commentator said Bumrah saw the batter moving away and bowled wide. Seeing this replay, it's clear that the batsman did not move his feet till late! - pure skill and brains!
