Peak adulting.

There are days when you're completely drained from work. You're exhausted, running on empty, and all you want to do is quit your job and go back home.

But the moment your family calls, you smile and say, "Haha, I'm doing great. I'm enjoying it here."

When in reality, you're just trying to survive another day, all by yourself.

Building a career after failing UPSC is hard.

People don't miss a chance to make you feel that you are a failure.

After UPSC, I tried everything to figure out my Plan B.

- I explored UX/UI and learned Figma from scratch, but couldn't take it further.

- I tried coding. I started learning Python and SQL, but gave up within a week.

- I thought about selling my artwork, but stopped when I realized I was turning my favorite hobby into a pressure filled job and slowly losing the love I had for it.

Then I realized something. I was already doing what I loved. I was writing on X.

I enjoyed turning opinions and thoughts into stories and sharing them with the world. My account grew from zero to more than 30,000 followers in few years.

That's when I decided to take it seriously.

I started reaching out to brands, helping them build their presence on X, launch campaigns, connect with founders and influencers, and grow their audience.

One thing I noticed was that you could already be a big creator on Instagram or LinkedIn, but growing on X was a completely different challenge. I saw that gap.

I reached out to D2C founders and promised them I would make their accounts go viral. A few of them gave me a chance, and it worked.

First founder account went from scratch to being featured by national media, which helped them to get their first investor.

Second account crossed 10,000 followers in just four months. The founder was so happy with the results that he handed me their brand page and social media marketing as well.

Word spread over time, got referrals from the founders, landed from one client to another, from one brand to another.

Over last two years, worked with more than 15+ clients, launched multiple viral campaigns on X, built founder influencer accounts from scratch, helped brands launch products and campaigns, and taken many of them into the national spotlight.

Because X is where opinions are shaped, narratives are built, and stories get picked up by the media.

Most branding agencies were focused on LinkedIn and Instagram, I chose to focus entirely on X.

We probably built one of India's first agencies dedicated only to branding and marketing on X. In fact, this is the first time I'm talking about it publicly.

Happy with whatever the journey has been. From failing UPSC, to getting laid off, to starting an agency and building my own team.

The show must go on.

I passed the AWS Solutions architect associate exam last year
I have some decent notes for the famous tricks that are used in the exam

If some folks on my TL are interested, I can write an article about all those tricks (for revision)
It won't be an elaborative one, just a last-minute helper for the exam

Build LLMs from Scratch 🚀

Found this gem from Vizuara, a 43-lecture series that actually delivers on its promise: building Large Language Models from the ground up.

Most people use ChatGPT.
Very few actually understand how it works behind the scenes.

This playlist breaks it down step by step without making it feel overwhelming.

What you’ll learn:
→ Transformer architecture
→ GPT internals
→ Tokenization & BPE
→ Attention mechanisms
→ Training flow of LLMs
→ Complete Python implementations

Perfect for:
��� ML Engineers
• AI Enthusiasts
• Developers entering GenAI
• Anyone tired of “black box” AI explanations

If you really want to understand what powers models like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini — this is worth watching.

Watch. Build. Understand.

[Abhishek Singh @0xlelouch_]

Most software engineers do not need 10 years to become senior.

They need 2 years of focused work.

But most people spend those 2 years like this:

8 hours office work
2 hours scrolling
1 hour complaining about manager
1 hour comparing salary on LinkedIn
30 minutes saving system design posts
0 minutes actually building depth

Then after 5 years they wonder why they are still being treated like a mid-level engineer.

The senior engineer path is boring but simple:

- Write 2 design docs every month.
- Debug 1 real production issue deeply instead of just patching it.
- Read 1 technical book every quarter.
- Build 1 side project where you handle auth, caching, queues, retries, observability, rate limits and deployments.
- Spend 30 minutes daily understanding databases, networking, distributed systems or cloud infra.

Do this for 12 months and you will not even recognize your old self.

The difference between mid-level and senior is not age.

It is ownership.

Mid-level engineers ask, “What should I build?”

Senior engineers ask, “What problem are we really solving, what can break, who gets impacted, and how do we make this reliable?”

Hard work is tiring.

But staying average for 10 years while knowing you had more inside you is a different kind of pain.

Best feature? “Smart Pickup” tells you if walking a little can lower your fare, Loyalty to cab apps is officially deadFound a crazy cab hack 😭

You can beat me at almost everything easily, but one thing you will find difficult to match is the number of hours I put in every single day. Maybe you can do it for a few days, but doing it for multiple years is different.

Remember, motivation is overrated. Discipline is what builds you.
