WHY I STARTED BLOGGING

WHY I STARTED BLOGGING.. AGAIN

Well, after 7 years I'm starting to blog again. And it feels GOOD! The intentions were to write out the experiences about my work and social life [but not personal stuff] and be more aligned to what's going on around my work and social sphere. I hope you'll like my blogs, and will have something to say about it!

OK, LET’S TALK ABOUT WHY YOU’RE HERE 

FLASHBACK - 90's

In school days, the biggest high for me was to write the stories among the varied options for the essay writing in the English Language paper [if you're from ICSE, you'll know the feeling]. I used to love to write those stories with imagination, creativity, and flair but also with clarity and brevity of thoughts.

As they say "Technology Kills Creativity", that what exactly happened to me during the college days. The good old days of ORKUT and the only thing I am proud of was writing those lofty TESTIMONIALS and sending cryptic SCRAPS.

Once I came to Bangalore around 2007, initial days of struggle in a new city, pushed me to write again. And, I wrote really some rubbish blogs during those 2 years [Well, I dare! you may check by yourself].

Then came the FACEBOOK and I spoiled my best part of 20s trying to be a wannabe. Then came TWITTER ― and all I wanted was a life full of hashtag events. But by then I soon realize that the "Twitterverse" [as tweeple like to call it] is meant for two kind of people - The Known-Face-Celebrity or The Faceless-Troller - and neither of them was me.

SKIP TO PRESENT DAY

I came back to what I love to do, WRITING! When you do something out of passion, there’s no pressure and no fear of failure. When you decide to take that to the next level, you became absorbed, oblivious to the passage of time ― it becomes real and scary and amazing all at the same time.

Having worked in the Supply Chain industry for over a decade now, I have followed and read many bloggers for varied topics and ideas, but honestly didn't KNOW what blogging is really entailed.
I wanted to share my knowledge and my life experiences through my blogs with a small hope that it may make someone's life easy. Happy Reading!

WHAT ABOUT THE FANCY NAME




Well, we Bongs are known for our ADDA!

Oxford defines the word as "a place where people gather for conversation" but it doesn't define the essence of it.  An Adda is not gossiping and venting ― the conversations will have some REASONS to it, invariably involve DEBATES and you'll hear some of the fascinating STORIES during the course of it. So please feel free to chime in!


Also, if you're a movie connoisseur by now you must have guessed the name also borrows from the 1977 cult Bengali movie "Jukti Takko Aar Gappo" directed by the mercurial genius, and my personal favourite, Ritwik Ghatak.

CONTINUOUS CODE QUALITY

Image
WHY SHOULD I BOTHER ABOUT MY CODE QUALITY? The quality of source code is a key factor for any software product and its continuous monitoring is an indispensable task for a software development project. Code Quality Analysis is not a terrible popular category to start with - which is probably one reason that most apps, even the best of them, suffer from creeping bugs and errors at some point. The point here is, monitoring and fixing code quality issues is something that is proven to raise the quality of your application and your ability to deliver that application to stakeholders on time . But it’s clear that the vast majority of developers aren’t taking full advantage of tools designed to improve app quality. There are many aspects of code quality that we can sink our teeth into, but let's pick  Static Code Analysis from the pyramid of tools to help improve the quality of our code. Developers are using tools that fit into other categories as well, such as:

Flexible Warehouse – the next frontier?

Image
We are nowadays talking about Flexible Warehouse - where a flexible workforce would handle flexible production with the help of flexible automation giving an increased production output to handle the rapid changes to meet the demand. Consumers at Forefront The evolution of consumerism in conjunction with the explosion of e-commerce has profoundly impacting material handling automation. Warehouses, distribution centers, and fulfillment centers earlier used to maintain a straightforward focus on shipping full pallets and larger units, but e-commerce created the need to ship goods at case, split-case, each, and even item levels. And add to it, the need for omni-channel fulfillment and customer’s expectation on faster deliveries. As a result, materials handling automation strategies and operations at many distribution centers have undergone radical change.  Robots to the Rescue This shift means that warehouse automation solutions must be equipped to effecti

Top Trends in Demand Planning

Demand Sensing Demand Sensing is a forecasting method that leverages new mathematical techniques and near real-time information to create an accurate forecast of demand, based on the current realities of the supply chain rather than past sales. Evolving customer behavior and rising market volatility have underscored the opportunity to sense and react in near real-time to changes to changes in the demand supply network.  Demand Sensing enables to incorporate downstream data with minimal latency to understand what is being sold, who is buying the product, and the impact of demand‐shaping programs.  These three demand elements are then translated into requirements to craft a profitable demand response through internal processes for demand translation. Why use Demand Sensing? Better forecasts translate directly into better business decisions, which can affect many Key Performance Indicators (KPI) closely monitored by management: Supply Chain KPI's:
