@aayushchugh Somewhere in IG Ads I read and I quote “If you code, work in finance, not tech”.

And Web3 is 60% finance because every Tom, Dick, and Harry in Dubai is making some trading platform or exchange base.

Here's what you need to be cracked:

- Calculus
- Linear Algebra
- Discrete Math
- Statistics
- C

Sprinkle in some Computer Architecture and Operating Systems and you become super cracked

Took part in my first hackathon and built a skin condition detection software. Keeping the technical experience gained through our hackathon journey aside, we had the most fun time in discussing how and in what ways we could monetize our software 😂

Whatsapp has successfully killed the thinking ability of many 55+ year olds (Whatsapp university).

Instagram has successfully killed the thinking ability of 25 year olds <

One could argue that Meta is the most genius (yet evil) business in the world.

The older I get, the more I realize that success at most things isn't about finding the one trick or secret nobody knows about.

It's consistently doing the boring, mundane things everyone knows about but is too unfocused/undisciplined to do.

Get good at boring.

Most good engineers I worked with had a common trait - they just happen to know a lot of random stuff, facts, and practices at surface level ⚡

The conversations with them were always fun and insightful as they kept telling and sharing interesting nuggets. Although they were not an expert in those, they did have a primitive idea and understanding of what they were talking about.

They built this by reading articles and watching videos on seemingly interesting topics that they stumbled upon while surfing the internet. They consumed it even though the topics were unrelated to the domain they worked on.

Being open to learning new things is a sign of deep interest in the field and spending time exploring it builds a muscle to learn and grasp varied concepts. An interesting by-product of doing this is cross-pollination, where you can connect the dots draw parallels across fields, and come up with out-of-the-box solutions.

The stuff I am talking about may seem like standalone concepts and facts. Some of them are advanced data structures and algorithms, some fragments of database internals, communication protocols, interesting design choices made by some companies, common pitfalls of using a particular tech, etc.

Now, these facts and understandings are not learned and built overnight, and neither they are learned at your workplaces. These are built by consistently spending time self-studying.

To be honest, this is not difficult to achieve, just make sure you spend some time (say 30 minutes) every weekday to learn stuff that you find interesting and build a genuine interest in those topics.

Over time, you will build momentum and turn learning into a habit and find yourself dissecting complex concepts with ease, drawing connections between seemingly unrelated topics, and confidently navigating the landscape.

ps: there is no need to sacrifice your weekends, 30 minutes every weekday over 3 years is more than enough time to build a really good understanding and become a better engineer.

⚡ I keep writing and sharing my practical experience and learnings every day, so if you resonate then follow along. I keep it no fluff.

Can someone please organize a conversation between Narayana Murthy and Orry on the need of a 70 hour working week! 😀

Give it 10 more years: taxes are going to destroy industries in India.

A classic case is Goa.

Goa hotels are more expensive in season than destinations like Vietnam or even Dubai.

One could understand why Vietnam would be cheaper. But why Dubai?

There is 0% tax on running an AirBnB in Dubai.
No GST, no income tax, nothing.

So to get: let's say 10K, a hotel/AirBnB owner in India would charge like roughly 13K. A Dubai AirBnb folk does not need to do that.

This is just the story you SEE. What happens at the backend is: in order to buy a property where you can run an AirBnB/Hotel, you have to pay good 7-10% Stamp Duty, brokerage.

To get construction licence, give bribes. The expenses keeps adding up.

These extra 'expenses' are eventually passed onto the end customers.

The situation is so bad: that my go-to bakeries in Goa outright refuse to accept cards, UPI payments now. And, will only take cash.

Why? because they want to keep their product price low.

And, they can't do it, if they are paying 30%+ effective taxes. These are small home run businesses -- and can't bear the compliance cost. So they are simply switching to a simpler/more effective model for them.

Almost 40% of Goa's population depends on entirely Tourism.

10 years from now: if the government continues to eat 30-40% in taxes (and provides cramped roads in return), people would rather simply go abroad to even travel. And, industries will shatter.

We need ways to protect small businesses. Not loot them more and more in the name of taxes.

And, then we crib: why we don't have enough jobs in India? [reason: we kill small businesses, which are the true drivers of jobs in an economy]
