Disasters happen! Post Mortems are done. It would be stupid not to learn from them or apply them to other industries.

Started creating these puzzles as a way to bring engineers in my company together during the quarantine period on something they like to do. Initially started as simple virtual get-together, it started getting traction when prizes were offered for the first to solve correctly. That also meant that it was no longer okay to post Googleable puzzles. And that led me to create these. Two new ones are being created every week. Check out when free.

As much as I love meeting interesting Uber drivers, sometimes, I'd be so stressed and/or tired that I'm in no mood to talk to or up for a conversation with the uber driver. However, unaware of this obviously, the driver tries to engage me in a chit-chat which further irritates me but I wouldn't be let it show on my face just to be not rude. It's difficult to tell them that I'm not up for any conversation. So, while booking the ride itself, if there is a checkbox or something which lets the drivers know that the rider doesn't like to converse at this moment, it would be really helpful.
