&lt;p&gt;This is my understanding of a dream home that I&amp;rsquo;d like to build one day, not sure when, but one day, I&amp;rsquo;ll be pasting my inspirations in a mood board, as well as the interior choices, most importantly the &amp;ldquo;Why&amp;rdquo; behind it&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Garage for car repairs and mods - not a workshop&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Wheel chair accessible from the street&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Sound proof room&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Space to host atleast 50 people&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Full surveillance outside - 24/7&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;reading room with library&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;should be ideal for robo Vac&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;dishwasher setup inside home&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;monkey protection&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;only ground floor - ranch style&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;No TV etc&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Two garage doors for in and out; no need to back out when leaving house&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;solar - should not rely on the grid&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;No high contrast colors&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;there will be tradeoffs, as for everything, the goal is to know what you want and what you are giving up&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>How to start from zero</title><link>https://dineshmannam.com/posts/how-to-start-from-zero/</link><pubDate>Sat, 27 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><author>dinesh@dineshmannam.com (Dinesh Mannam)</author><guid>https://dineshmannam.com/posts/how-to-start-from-zero/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;This is my attempt to teach my futureself on how to get back on your feet when nothing feels going in your way, once you start your downfall, you hit rockbottom before you realize, so, it&amp;rsquo;s important to define what &amp;ldquo;your&amp;rdquo; rockbottom is and make sure that is taken care of while you are up there&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;there will be many reasons why we&amp;rsquo;ve came to this situation, the immediate goal is to get back on your feet as quickly as possible - Survival&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>focus on preparedness, not prediction</title><link>https://dineshmannam.com/posts/wip-focus-on-preparedness-not-prediction/</link><pubDate>Thu, 25 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><author>dinesh@dineshmannam.com (Dinesh Mannam)</author><guid>https://dineshmannam.com/posts/wip-focus-on-preparedness-not-prediction/</guid><description/></item><item><title>Maybe it's actually you</title><link>https://dineshmannam.com/posts/wip-maybe-the-problem-is-you/</link><pubDate>Thu, 25 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><author>dinesh@dineshmannam.com (Dinesh Mannam)</author><guid>https://dineshmannam.com/posts/wip-maybe-the-problem-is-you/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;did you ever wonder about certain people like your coworkers, relatives, why are they behave like this or they are involving too much in your life?&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>What it actually costs to eat well</title><link>https://dineshmannam.com/posts/what-it-actually-costs/</link><pubDate>Wed, 24 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><author>dinesh@dineshmannam.com (Dinesh Mannam)</author><guid>https://dineshmannam.com/posts/what-it-actually-costs/</guid><description>&lt;h1 id="what-it-actually-costs-to-eat-well"&gt;
 What it actually costs to eat well
&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Most people guess wrong about this. They either imagine ₹50 meals and street-side plates, or they carry the price memory of Bangalore and Mumbai and assume it is out of reach. Vijayawada is neither. It is a Tier 2 city with good market access, a coastline nearby, and a food culture that - without trying to - tracks closely with what the science actually recommends.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>How to use Hugo with Vercel</title><link>https://dineshmannam.com/posts/how-to-use-hugo-with-vercel/</link><pubDate>Tue, 23 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><author>dinesh@dineshmannam.com (Dinesh Mannam)</author><guid>https://dineshmannam.com/posts/how-to-use-hugo-with-vercel/</guid><description>&lt;h1 id="what-is-hugo"&gt;
