Life Update: Moved to NewCastle a Year Ago – Very Late Post

March 13, 2025 by Varun Shrivastava Leave a Comment

Merry Christman from Wembly Park

I have been wanting to write about this move for sometime and I finally found some time today. So, here it is, I moved to London on October 8th from Stockholm. This move was purely based on the career. There was a lot of hype about FAANG culture and I wanted to experience one, so I prepped for it and got into Amazon. To be honest, not much of a difference. Only the scale at … [Read more...] about Life Update: Moved to NewCastle a Year Ago – Very Late Post

Can A Man Live Alone?

February 13, 2022 by Varun Shrivastava Leave a Comment

Lonely

Before I get into the crux of it, let me tell you what I really mean when I say "Can a Man Live Alone". Of course, a man can live alone but that's not the crux of it, the point is can a man live alone and thrive. Would he grow at all? Can a lone person compete with someone who is surrounded by friends and family? I think it is very important to address this issue, especially … [Read more...] about Can A Man Live Alone?

Christmas Time!!!

Christmas Stockholm

Finally, Christmas is here. The city has lit up. All decorated. But unlike the other festivals, the Christmas vibes are silent and cosy. It is a festival which is celebrated with close family members and relatives mostly over a 7-course dinner (this depends on the place I guess). Spend time talking and sharing stories with each other. A nice way to spend some quality time … [Read more...] about Christmas Time!!!

Revisiting Algorithms

Revisiting algorithms

I think this is the 7th time I'm revisiting the algorithms now. I don't know what happens after a really good start, I tend to get busy and lose midway. I really miss the old college days when I had all the time in the world. No worries about the work, food, home, shelter... everything was taken care of by my parents. It's true that with experience comes responsibility... … [Read more...] about Revisiting Algorithms

Thinking Of Starting Algorithms And Problem Solving

October 10, 2021 by Varun Shrivastava Leave a Comment

Problem Solving

I have not been solving problems for quite a long time now. As a consequence, I have lost the touch. Nowadays unless you are working for a startup and building a complex platform from the scratch then you won't be doing a lot of problem-solving. Obviously, your business and system knowledge grows but problem-solving is not that much. That's why I'm trying to get back to … [Read more...] about Thinking Of Starting Algorithms And Problem Solving
