Donated a meager amount to Wikipedia

Heleena is madly interested in charity works and after reading Shiv Nadar's interview in Entrepreneur magazine, it gave us some direction as he mentioned only Education can change the lives.

Been one of the early contributor of Wikipedia (13th or 18th Wikipedian, I hope), I've just donated a meager amount as it's a very good tool for Education. (In reality, these sort of things shouldn't be blogged (I know that); I just thought that it would let other people to donate to Wikipedia. Sorry for the noise)

When you are doing or done even small good thing publish as much as you can. When your are doing like that many people may scold, many people may jealous, many people may say you are showing off, but any one may impress and do the same. So don't stop to publish things like that :)

Dear Rajesh,

I appreciate your noble cause... But these days I think WikiPedia is exploiting its donors... There is no transparency on how these funds are used... See to it that your donation reaches the right hands...

Keep up the good work...

Anand
Thanks a lot, Mr. Anand for your kind time and heads up. I hope, Wikipedia will look into it. Thanks again.

Hardening WordPress at WordPress Community Meetup - Mar 2020

Today spoke about hardening WordPress at the WordPress meetup . It's a nice experience as the audience were from mixed backgrounds (developing, marketing, product management, etc). My slides and links are available in the Pinboard . I have also shared an actionable checklist to harden a WordPress instance, that anyone can use in the form of the Restyaboard app (Restyaboard similar to Trello but open source and can self-host).

Interview question #2

This is related to PHP's array . An array has number of elements. All elements are integers and unique, which means there is no repetitive integers. (e.g.) $foo = array(7, 5, 9, 13, 2, 8); You have to sort the array, provided: You should scan the elements only once. You're not allowed to compare the elements when sorting. (i.e., you're not supposed to use any comparison operators) Sorted resultant array may not be the source array. How will you do that?
