    The Grand Anaicut Canal

    I had [written](Technology Shapes Society: From Kallanai to AI, A Personal Story www.linkedin.com/pulse/tec…) about how this British built canal transformed and levelled the cultural and economic scene of Kaveri delta region of Thanjavur.

    Here is a picture of that canal still being used to that effect and some images from the plantation of paddy for the new season.

    Microsoft Fabric Data Engineer Associate certification : DP-700 exam

    Having experienced this exam today, I can easily conclude that the biggest problem is not having enough time to answer all the questions.

    Especially, if you are unlucky like me, to get the case study questions at the end of the exam instead of at the beginning - time just flies answering the first section. I was left only with 10 mins for the case study 🙁

    So it’s more important to be fast in reading the questions. Most questions take long to read. If your first language isn’t English or you have difficulty reading fast in English, see if the exam is offered in your native language. I know for sure it’s available in Spanish and few other languages.

    So don’t hesitate to take up the exam in your language of proficiency.

    Good luck!

    Height of .NETing! (1892 meters Above Mean Sea Level)

    It’s been week and the memories of trekking to a height of 1892m AMSL are still hovering in my mind.

    It was just 3 months since the escape to the jungles, the nature invited another visit to the peaks, valleys, jungles, water falls, wild. The timing was not very perfect as my presence would have really helped the team to go ahead with the product release smoothly. Despite the tight schedule, made myself way out of this noisy Bangalore to the bliss of the Western Ghats.

    This trek was to the KudreMukh (The peak that looks like the Face of a Horse) in the Western Ghats of Karnataka.
