hotstar x google: it's not everyday that your work gets published on web's most prestigious, definitive & sought-after place https://t.co/s9oH0JNHGD
this has been a journey of epic proportions where a small team led by @RICH4Srivastava & @bhuvanesh_audi came together (1/3)
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.

Hey React team, am I reading between the lines on the "use" hook docs right? https://t.co/oG99RpjIlh
What I gather from this is going forward once "use" is released, useContext will be de-emphasized and there won't be a good reason to not use "use" instead. Right?
Next -
• T20 World Cup - 6 months later.
• Champions Trophy - 14 months later.
Now, can't let this man go without the ICC trophy.
Captain Rohit Sharma is still playing his best cricket & leading India from the front with his vision, the man deserves these trophies.
#aatmapamphlet is an amazing movie. Subtle and very cute acting by these little kids, at point and many times eye opening satire, and very funny narration! It was a laughing riot throughout😂
I will recommend to everyone.
It is available with subs.

Also, congratulations to the Indian men's 4x400m relay team for breaking the Asian record and qualifying for the World Championships final for the first time…Shine bright in the finals too..:)
I researched about History of SSR in JavaScript and presented my findings.
It was a fun experience presenting at NonStop today!
Thanks @ReactPune for organising the event and @NonStopio for hosting it!
