Michael Olise is an excellent playmaker and does his job excellently well but the reason Mbappe is rated higher is because he gets the goals

Now imagine Olise does the playmaking and scores equally the same amount of goals as Mbappe or even more, I'm sure Olise will be rated higher

That's exactly the Messi vs Ronaldo debate. Ronaldo is Mbappe while Messi is Olise + Mbappe

This is just an illustration to teach you why nobody is close to Lionel Messi's football ability

you really do get a lot done by getting up earlier and staying off your phone.

[Pritika @pritika_9]

Never take for granted someone who consistently makes the effort to stay in touch. The truth is, most people don’t actually care that much about you. So when someone remembers to text, call, or check in, give them your full attention and appreciation. Genuine care is rare.

Advice for entry-level software engineers: Focus on understanding how computers work. Learn how they transmit, process, and store data.

Fundamentals are more important than the latest frameworks.

Right now, AI can generate code, but it cannot solve the problem for you. To effectively instruct the tool, you must understand the building blocks.

1. Start with Networking.

Don't just verify that an API works. Understand how the data gets there.

- HTTP/HTTPS: Learn the request lifecycle.

- DNS: How names become IP addresses.

- TCP vs. UDP: Reliability vs. Speed.
If you don't understand the transport, you can't debug the latency.

2. Master the Operating System, specifically Linux.

Most of the cloud runs on Linux. You need to be comfortable in the terminal.

- File Systems: Everything is a file.
- Process Management: How programs start, run, and die.
- Memory Management: Stack vs. Heap.

All code needs an OS to run.

3. Understand Data Structures (and when to use them).

This isn't about passing interview tests; it's about performance.

- Know why a Hash Map is faster than an Array for lookups.
- Understand Big O notation to predict how your code behaves as user traffic grows.

Inefficient code costs money.

4. Deep dive into Databases.
Storing data is easy; retrieving it quickly is the hard part.

- Indexing: How to make queries fast.
- ACID: Understanding transaction integrity.
- Normalization: How to structure data to avoid redundancy.

Bad schema design creates tech debt that is painful to fix later.

The best engineers I know aren't the ones who know every syntax of a new language. They are the ones who can understand systems thinking & can visualize the path of a byte from the user's click to the hard drive and back.

“Vision without systems thinking ends up painting lovely
pictures of the future with no deep understanding of the
forces that must be mastered to move from here to there. — Peter Senge, The Fifth Discipline (Currency)”

Focus on the mechanics, and the tools will make sense.

Happy New Year, May the force be with you!

Life goes on bro, with or without friends, with or without love. As a man, you're alone, always on your own.

Please invest in yourself.

Normalize praying in the morning before you touch your phone.

[Unkonfined @unkonfined]

Do not quit.

Life can go from zero to blessed very quickly.

[feyisayo 💸 @feyiszn]

Neverrrrrrrr underestimate the power of prayers. Prayers work.

[Cozyreads @Cozyreads_]

People with discipline know that it's easy to give up, but they keep going through thick and thin, even when they'd rather quit, because it's a matter of personal integrity.

[Catalin @catalinmpit]

I host my apps on multiple platforms like Vercel and DigitalOcean.

But I'd like to move them all to one platform. Which one do you recommend?
