Did some digging as alluded before we havent crossed paths much. Found the links above. Why were you so harsh then? Was it in order to get into the ‘in crowd’ at that time? Would you insult a typically new member like that, in todays timeline?

Was probably in a bad mood. I don't think I'll be that harsh now.

How has the caste system influenced and affected your family in recent times?
Reservation. Had to work way more hard than people who had reservations.

Has the IPL benefit countries other than India?
Not sure. Probably it's brought cricketers like Marsh and Maxwell out of the shadows?

Lara or Tendulkar, and why?
Lara in tests. SRT in ODIs. SRT overall.

Views on the ruling BJP making India a Hindu State?
Don't think I know enough to take a stand on this

Who do you think will end up winning the PCGMC8?
@Simon (if he takes part in most of the rounds)

@AliB @FireAndBlood

Haha I'm really feeling it rn, might actually use my weekends for graphics.

Who are some people on PlanetCricket you'd like to hang out with in person?

Which countries have you visited? Which trip did you get the most out of?

What do you normally think of when America is mentioned? Have you ever visited the US or want to visit it at some point?

How the actual heck do you enjoy electrical engineering? (circuits seem so dry, at least it did so in my first semester) What do you guys do for your coursework? How did you start off with it in your first semester?

Maybe a bit too personal and please dont answer if you feel uncomfortable but what caste are you?

 

[Dipak]

I'm general. No clue what my specific caste is. I don't even bother knowing.

Who are some people on PlanetCricket you'd like to hang out with in person?
Since I've already met Varun, I'll go with @Rebel2k17

Which countries have you visited? Which trip did you get the most out of?
Germany (lived four years), France, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland (all these were were from ages 2-6 so I have no memory about these places, leaving Germany)
UAE

What do you normally think of when America is mentioned? Have you ever visited the US or want to visit it at some point?
I'll most probably do my masters (and PhD if I end up doing one) in the US. Haven't visited it yet, but I think it's a nice place with friendly people. (and the occasional gun trotters)

How the actual heck do you enjoy electrical engineering? (circuits seem so dry, at least it did so in my first semester)
I'm actually interested in the Communications part of EE which has very little to do with circuits. I did enjoy circuits in my second semester (it's quite difficult though) and my internship was IC design

What do you guys do for your coursework? How did you start off with it in your first semester?
Now I take advanced signal processing courses and digital communication courses.
I've done a few basic circuits and device physics courses in my first three years, but decided against taking the advanced ones.

Who else are we going to bitch about?

 

[Prithvi]

Dipak, never knew you opened one..

1) Why was your name Dipakvaio? Why so much of obsession with your Vaio?
2) Memes or food?
3) Memes or sex?

If coffee was illegal, what would its street name be?​

 

[Dipak]

1) Why was your name Dipakvaio? Why so much of obsession with your Vaio?
My first laptop was a vaio and I created my PC account the day I got it.

2) Memes or food?
Too difficult. I want memes on a plate

3) Memes or sex?
Never had sex so, Memes.

If coffee was illegal, what would its street name be?
137TT since caffeine's actual name is 1,3,7-Trimethylxanthine Theine
