Grab some popcorn before you read this article, it’s no less than the script of an interesting movie.
Really enjoyed reading it. IMO the article is:
0. Directionally correct
1. Emotionally very exaggerated
2. Dangerous if taken literally
3. Useful if taken as a wake-up call
If someone reads it and panics, that’s bad.
If someone reads it and upgrades how they learn and work, that’s good.
While I don’t agree with a lot of things here, I do agree with many of the points.
It’s definitely worth a read, and I think you should because it will expand your perspective.
PS: I really loved how beautifully it has been written: the flow, the sentences, and everything overall has been put together really well. 😁

@kritikatwtss Still better once am on standup call , one teammate giving his update and am on chat with my office colleague and laughing and slightly said bc 🥹 in laugh and my teammate immediately ping me to turn off ur mic .
At Hotstar, I worked on a project handling around 5% of the VOD traffic. Given the scale, ensuring seamless playback was critical, and even the slightest issue could impact the user experience.
I was implementing an expiry token system and needed to introduce a new type of expiry token. However, rolling out this change directly could break ongoing traffic that relied on the existing token format. The challenge was clear: I had to support both the existing tokens and the new ones without disrupting the system.
To achieve this, I designed the solution to be backward compatible—meaning my updated code could handle both the old and new token formats.
In software engineering, backward compatibility ensures that newer versions of a system can still work with older data, configurations, or APIs without breaking functionality.
Some common strategies for achieving backward compatibility in similar situations include:
Graceful Handling of Old Data – Ensuring the system recognizes both old and new formats.
Feature Flags – Rolling out changes incrementally and toggling features.
Versioning APIs – Keeping older API versions operational while new versions evolve.
Dual-Processing Logic: – Writing code that understands both old and new formats during the transition period.
📢राजस्थान के सीकर जिले में श्री खाटू श्याम जी का सुप्रसिद्ध मंदिर है. वैसे तो खाटू श्याम बाबा के भक्तों की कोई गिनती नहीं लेकिन इनमें खासकर वैश्य, मारवाड़ी जैसे व्यवसायी वर्ग अधिक संख्या में है. श्याम बाबा कौन थे, उनके जन्म और जीवन चरित्र के बारे में जानते हैं इस लेख में.
खाटू श्याम जी का असली नाम बर्बरीक है. महाभारत की एक कहानी के अनुसार बर्बरीक का सिर राजस्थान प्रदेश के खाटू नगर में दफना दिया था. इसीलिए बर्बरीक जी का नाम खाटू श्याम बाबा के नाम से प्रसिद्ध हुआ. वर्तमान में खाटूनगर सीकर जिले के नाम से जाना जाता है. खाटू श्याम बाबा जी कलियुग में श्री कृष्ण भगवान के अवतार के रूप में माने जाते हैं.
