Within past 2 months grinding on codechef, solved 1500+ easy problems.. ik I am doing wrong, I am looking for guidance.. also I am looking to enter into data related field, like DA, or DS or ML engineering.. All I know is beginner-intermediate level python.
Last year of college
If I had to learn Backend Development again in 2026,
I'd focus on only these 10 topics:
1. API Design (REST/GraphQL)
2. SQL & Database Design
3. Indexing & Query Optimization
4. Caching (Redis)
5. Authentication & Authorization
6. Message Queues (Kafka/RabbitMQ)
7. System Design Fundamentals
8. Concurrency & Transactions
9. Docker & Deployment
10. Monitoring & Observability
Master these 10.
You'll know more backend engineering than most developers chasing every new framework.
@Hiteshdotcom Too tight such that, even if a person(my dad) hasn't use Facebook account for 4 years haven't posted anything.. and suddenly got email that his Facebook ID has been banned for violation of policy, policy for not posting anything(sarcasm). Lol.
@Hiteshdotcom Hey @Hiteshdotcom, I know it's really off topic rn, but can you answer why so many peoples accounts from Instagram and Facebook are getting banned by Meta, for no reason, like is it AI algo glitch or there "security" is getting too tight?
