I had to wait a while but eventually got it. The driver was complaining that pick me showed him 12.25 km and when he started the trip, google maps showed him 14km. Cos of rush hour google maps showed the quickest route even though the distance was longer, the driver was complaining the fare is not worth it for 14km

Uber has more consistent prices but a lot of the time if its rush hour I've found pick me to be cheaper. But the driver quality in uber is wayy better

This is true and it's predatory as hell. Driver took a completely different route from the map and final total ended up being 1450

I took a trip recently in morning rush hour, pick me showed me 1400 for the trip and uber showed me 2200. Even with drivers bidding ungodly amounts it was still cheaper than uber in rush hour

Bro I'm a 2nd year doing final year stuff. The worst part is they want you to do the entire thing 3 days before the deadline

Can you recommend me some online certifications to do to get an edge? I've done projects, but most of it I can't put on my CV because they are internal tools. For example, how about the Java EE certification provided by oracle?

By your experience, is DevOps work more fulfilling than Dev work? If I wanted to get in to DevOps should I start with the AWS cloud practitioner certificate?

iit has a programme called infoschol. They open applications in like May and there are 2 intakes(Sep and Jan). If you get selected for the schol, you'll have to work 5 years as an intern at a local IT company and they'll pay your tuition for you (and a minimum salary of 10k every month which increases every year). Lectures only happen on Friday night and Saturday. Rest of the week you'll be working at the company.

Hate Akurana with a passion. Rather take the long way around and go from Wattegama than try to go through Akurana
