What I’m Doing NOW

This is a Now page and is inspiired by one of my favorite author, Derek Siver’s Now page

Updated March 1st 2026, from Mumbai, India where summer is just beginning and the AQI is a pleasant 36 ppb. (Yes, I am more troubled by the stuff I breathe than the warmth of my skin).

Health

• I’ve started running – away from my problems. Nah, that’s 2020’s me. Now I run into them head on. Lot of fun, would recommend. But no, I am actually running, like 5K per week. Well, almost every other week. I want to make this a regular thing but that’s where I’m at right now.

Relationships

• I’ve been meeting my friends and family more. I think I did more dinners with loved ones in the last 6 months than I have done in the last 3 years.

Love

• I’ve found the love of my life. She is soo sweet. I thank my stars everyday for the unusual way in which our paths crossed. Hon, if you are reading this you should know that I love you. I love you more than I love a ribeye steak and that’s saying something.

Socials

• I’m on Instagram now – I recently started posting on instagram after collecting an iPhone full of photos from 3 trips abroad. I mean, its better off on Meta servers than my paid iCloud storage amiright?!

Work

• I’m currently working on a lot of Agentic AI assisted applications. I mean who isn’t, I get it, but my work focuses more on their optimization and production ready deployment.

Tech

• I finally setup my Macbook M4. The 24 gigs of ram is really something I never thought I’d need but to know that it exists is a huge peace of mind on long running tasks or heavy work days.
• I also got a iPhone 17 Pro Max and it’s already got a chipped corner. Something something clumsy hands…
• Not exactly tech but my girlfriend got me a pair of white All Birds shoes and I must say these are the most comfortable pair of outdoor-socks I’ve ever worn. God bless the hands that made these shoes. The comfort they offer is simply unmatched.

Learning

• I’m a big fan of books shared on Hacker News. Someone even made a “Book Tracker” for books mentioned in the comments. I try reading one book from that list once every month.
• This month’s reading is – In God’s Hands by Desmond Tutu. I’ve always found faith to be an alluring topic. This book provides a window into the mind of a person who’s very life is his faith – soo very interesting, don’t you think?!
• Another fun read for this year is Bombay Balchao by Jane Borges – a sneak peak into the everyday happenings of typical Goan catholic families in Bombay.

Food

• After returning from Europe I am trying to dedicate myself to little less gastronomic / salad heavy diet but it’s proving more difficult than I thought. That being said I’ve successfully switched to a one-mean-a-day diet and so far its quite nice.
