Async in Rust is like an onion 🧅
To run async code → you need .await
To make .await work → you need a runtime (Tokio)
To understand the runtime → you need to implement the Future trait
Future trait = uses a poll() method
poll() takes a Context with a Waker…💀
My friend who has ₹50L CTC
₹25L comes as salary
and the other ₹25L company stocks that vest over 4 years
Instead of investing extra amount in stock markets mutual funds through SIPs
Last year, he started bags business and this year he launched men's clothing business
He still invests in PPF and pays ₹1.2L a year for LIC but his focus is on building businesses
Is he missing out on the power of market compounding?
Or is he creating something that could compound even faster than stocks?
What do you think?
If things take time, give time

Heard this at one of @Red_Xiao_ interview
"if you’re in college, take your most talented classmates out for meals as often as you can. If you wait until after graduation to recruit them for your startup, you’ll have to treat them to Michelin-starred restaurants instead."
Another guest lecture lined up, and this one brings serious Solana program-level expertise into the room.
Tuesday, May 12, 12pm UTC (2pm CEST), Leonardo Donatacci, also known as @L0STE_, joins Cohort 4 to walk us through one of his areas of work.
Leonardo is the co-founder of @blueshift and a core contributor to Anchor. He's also one of the loudest voices in Quasar.
If you write Anchor, care about performance, or want to understand what Quasar-maxxing actually means under the hood, pull up.
Seeing the tribe out here building during hackathon season hits different
people trying new things
experimenting with different ideas
going all in on what they believe in
Proud of everyone grinding right now
Y’all remind us why we do what we do
All the best to everyone 🔥
🚀 Just kickstarted our 1st Accelerated Builders Class @solanaturbine 🔥
With classic escrow + LiteSVM tests.
Insane energy, super interactive!!
Shoutout to @shrinathx and the whole crew.

✅lock-free: 12–63M ops/sec, stays flat under contention
✅mutex: collapses to 700K ops/sec at 4+ threads asymmetric 16P/2C: 47.8× gap
the convoy effect in real numbers
hit a livelock at capacity=1 that took longer to debug than understanding the algorithm
root cause🚩: single slot + yield_now() being a no-op on WSL + OS rescheduling both threads in lockstep = infinite retry, zero progress
fix✅: enforce minimum internal capacity of 2
