How are Cyclones named?
How are Cyclones named?Amber Bhaumik Cyclones were traditionally not named, but the practice began with hurricanes in the Atlantic being assigned names when they reach sustained wind speeds of 39 mph. Initially only female names were used from 1953 to 1978 when both male and female names were adopted. Eight countries including Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan contribute name lists that are assigned sequentially to cyclones developing in the Indian Ocean region. Naming cyclones makes them easier to track and refer to than using numerical designations or coordinates. Retired names that caused severe damage are replaced after 10 years as a sign of respect.

stackconf 2025 | How NVMe over TCP runs PostgreSQL in Quicksilver mode! by Sa...NETWAYS PostgreSQL as a SQL engine can accommodate a very high-transaction rate using multithreading very efficiently, but as your data grows and the number of connections and queries increases, there is a challenge for the storage to keep up with the SQL engine. To the rescue comes our hero Quicksilver, or the name in real life – NVMe over TCP (NVMe/TCP). Developed by Lightbits Labs in 2016 and donated to the Linux community, it is the next evaluation of using NVMe based storage over TCP Fabric. NVMe/TCP simplifies how you interact with remote NVMe devices (targets) and allows your PostgreSQL storage to consume fast storage very easily and very efficiently. In this session I will explain the core concept of the NVMe/TCP protocol, current storage providers that can use it, how you can consume it in Kubernetes (super easy), and discuss the possibilities of using NVMe/TCP in private and public clouds. The session will also include performance numbers that were gathered on bare-metal servers on-prem and on AWS, using the latest PostgreSQL version and pgbench, showing the benefit of using multiple tablespaces when dealing with speed of light storage.

The Business Dynamics of Quick Commerce.pdf
The Business Dynamics of Quick Commerce.pdfRDinuRao This research explores the transformative rise of Quick Commerce (Q-Commerce)—an advanced evolution of e-commerce that emphasizes ultra-fast delivery, typically within 15–30 minutes, using hyperlocal micro-fulfillment centers. With the rapid pace of urbanization and digitalization, Q-commerce is reshaping consumer expectations, retail strategies, and supply chain models.The seminar Presentation Report has been completed by me under the guidance of Dr. Varun Agarwal. The report investigates the pivotal components of this disruption across marketing, operations, sustainability, and long-term viability.
The study begins with a deep dive into consumer psychology, applying theories like Impulse Buying (Stern, 1962) and Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, highlighting how digital platforms exploit impulse-driven purchasing. Supported by Ajzen’s Theory of Planned Behavior, the research explains how attitudes, social norms, and perceived control influence the purchasing decisions in a fast-paced retail setting.
A core component of the research is marketing strategy. Q-commerce companies deploy AI-driven personalization, geo-targeting, influencer marketing, and loyalty programs to attract and retain customers. For instance, influencer-driven campaigns achieve conversion rates of up to 65%, showcasing their significance in a digital-first market.
Using secondary data from McKinsey, Deloitte, KPMG, Statista, and HBR, the paper presents compelling figures—Q-commerce grew from $0.5 billion in 2022 to $5.5 billion in 2025, with projections reaching $9.95 billion by 2029. The average order value has doubled, while CAGR stands at 4.5%, signifying rapid adoption. Despite the meteoric growth, the study critically assesses challenges to profitability, such as steep operational costs, steep discounts, and last-mile delivery expenses.
A comparative analysis of platforms—Blinkit, Swiggy Instamart, Zepto, BigBasket, and JioMart—reveals how market leaders differentiate through delivery speed, inventory accuracy, app integrations, and urban focus. Moreover, the research stresses the environmental and labor challenges that must be addressed—like packaging waste, carbon emissions, and gig worker instability.
The discussion extends into how Q-commerce forces traditional retailers to adapt, investing in EV logistics, dark stores, and sustainability measures. It underscores the AI-led shift in consumer behavior, and the need for balanced growth that prioritizes environmental responsibility and ethical labor practices.
In conclusion, the paper recommends a future roadmap for Q-commerce: promoting eco-friendly logistics, subscription models, fair employment, and policy alignment. It calls for future research to explore Tier-2 and Tier-3 city expansion and to craft long-term profitability frameworks. Ultimately, this study positions Q-commerce not just as a convenience, but as a catalyst for redefining urban retail economics and digital lifestyle

stackconf 2025 | IP Authentication: A Tale of Performance Pitfalls and Challe...NETWAYS In this talk, I explore our journey with IP-based authentication as one part of a major re-engineering of our authentication methods. I will focus on the inherent performance challenges and unexpected issues we encountered… in production. I will talk about why IP authentication, despite its initial appeal, is a problematic solution in practice.
Key points:
The fundamental flaw: Necessity of checking every request against IP ranges
Performance implications of constant IP checks and potential optimization attempts
Implementation challenges: Efficient CIDR comparison for large IP ranges
Production rollout tale: Massive error rates (>30k/hour) and multiple rollbacks
Root cause analysis: Unexpected impact of cookieless crawlers and legacy code
Lessons learned: The importance of thorough testing and understanding legacy systems
I will offer insights for engineers considering IP authentication (don’t do it). I will discuss how the requirement for constant IP checking creates a performance bottleneck, and how seemingly minor factors like crawler behavior and old clients can significantly impact system stability. I will also talk about our production fuckups and how we tried to find out if our customers really had a problem or if this was just a storm in the waterglas.

In the evolving world of DevOps, the boundaries between technical execution and strategic vision are increasingly blurred. In this talk, I’ll share my journey of transitioning from a platform engineer, deeply immersed in technical challenges, to a platform product manager tasked with driving vision, prioritization, and stakeholder alignment. Over nearly three years as an engineer, I honed my expertise in infrastructure and automation. Transitioning into product management, however, required resetting my imposter syndrome, adopting a new mindset, and building entirely new skills.
This talk will explore the challenges of moving from solving problems to defining them, balancing technical depth with strategic foresight, and embracing the often-overlooked “glue work” that holds teams together. Attendees will gain insights into the mindset shifts required for such a transition, practical advice for others considering a similar path, and ways this experience can foster a more integrated and effective DevOps culture.
The presentation will include slides that walk the listeners through my journey, discussing why I did it, societal expectations, bumps in the road, and wins.

THE SEXUAL HARASSMENT OF WOMAN AT WORKPLACE (PREVENTION, PROHIBITION & REDRES...ASHISHKUMAR504404 Article 11 of the Convention on Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination (CEDAW) to which India is a party requires it to take all appropriate measures to eliminate discrimination against women in the field of employment. Equality in employment can be seriously impaired when women are subjected too gender specific violence such as Sexual Harassment at Workplace.
Article 21 of the Constitution which is related to a right to life and personal liberty, includes the right to live with dignity, and in the case of women, it means that they must be treated with due respect, decency and dignity at workplace. With more and more women joining the workforce, both in organized and unorganized sectors, ensuring and enabling working environment for women through legislation became imperative. To achieve this objective the sexual harassment of women at workplace bill was introduce in the Parliament, and was passed by both the house of Parliament and received the assent of the President on 22nd April 2013 It came in to force on 09.12.2013.
It is to provide for safe, secure and enabling environment to every women irrespective of her age or employment status by fixing the responsibility on the employer as well as the District Magistrate (D.M) or (A.D.M) of every district in the state as a District Officer and laying down the statutory redressal mechanism.

stackconf 2025 | Zap the Flakes! Leveraging AI to Combat Flaky Tests with CAN...NETWAYS Flakes aka tests that don’t behave deterministically, i.e. they fail sometimes and pass sometimes, are an ever recurring problem in software development. This is especially the sad reality when running end-to-end tests where a lot of components are involved. There are various reasons why a test can be flaky, however the impact can be as fatal as CI being loaded beyond capacity causing overly long feedback cycles or even users losing trust in CI itself. Ideally CI maintainers want potential flakes to be flagged at the earliest stage of the development lifecycle, so that they do not even enter the end-to-end test suite. They want a gate that acts as a safeguard for developers, pointing out to them what kind of stability issues a test has. This reduces CI user frustration and improves trust in CI. At the same time it cuts down on unnecessary waste of CI system resources. This talk will explore the CANNIER approach, which aims to reduce the time cost of rerunning tests. The speaker and the audience will take a closer look at the feature set used to create training data from existing test code of the KubeVirt project, enabling CI systems to predict probable flakiness of a certain test with an AI model. The speaker will cover how a subset of the CANNIER feature set is implemented, how it is used to generate training data for an AI model, and how the model is used to analyze flakiness probability, generating actionable feedback for test authors. Attendees will gain insight on how the CANNIER approach can help them improve test reliability, ultimately enhancing overall software quality and team productivity.
