Unpopular opinion:
Memorizing DSA solutions will NEVER get you placed.
I spent 4 years in real software development.
Not once did anyone ask me to reverse a linked list on the job.
But they DID ask me to:
→ Think logically under pressure
→ Break big problems into small ones
→ Communicate my approach clearly
DSA teaches thinking. Not just coding.

software engineering is so back.
> people are reading books again.
> every line of code is being read carefully.
> fundamentals are cool again.
> architecture and system design are back in focus.
> nobody is fighting over frameworks anymore.
> understanding why something works matters again.
> code reviews matter more than lines of code shipped.
> debugging is becoming a superpower again.
> technical judgment matters more than typing speed.
> engineering is about thinking again, not just coding.
“सरकार लोगों को संदेश दे रही है कि असहमति बर्दाश्त नहीं की जाएगी, जबकि ये हमारा अधिकार है। विरोध प्रदर्शन लोकतंत्र का सेफ़्टी वॉल्व है, अगर आप इसकी इजाज़त नहीं देंगे तो और बड़े विरोध प्रदर्शन होंगे और ज़्यादा हिंसा होगी.”

how to find and sell to customers in US sitting from India?
that's what @ShubhAgrawal26 does on a day to day basis, that too from sitting in Raipur, a small city in Chhattisgarh
so we got him on our pod to spill the beans on how to do it

Spoke with a married couple in their late 30s from Delhi.
They have:
₹3 cr: Flat (purchase value, 28 years of loan still to go)
₹80L: Mutual funds (market’s been red for 2 years, no growth)
₹35L: FDs (growing at the rate of inflation)
₹8L: Cash
On paper, they’re rich.
And yet they can’t afford to quit their high-stress jobs.
The flat is fine to live in, but the EMI never stops.
Every asset they own is either growing at 7-10% or not growing at all.
Millions of Indians are in this silent trap.
हां जहां अंकुरित भगवती हैं और मूर्ति पूजा की तरह नेत्र दान वगैरह नहीं होता है वहां आप आज भी भर लोगे तो कोई दिक्कत नहीं है ।
बांकी अपने अपने अनुसार स्वतंत्र देश के स्वतंत्र नागरिक तो हमलोग हैं ही।

#MyOpinion#अष्टमीपूजा
आज सुबह सूर्योदय के बाद अष्टमी तिथि पड़ा है और ये अष्टमी कल सुबह लगभग दश बजे तक रहेगा। इसलिए जो लोग उदिया तिथि मानते हैं उनके लिए आज का सूर्योदय सप्तमी तिथि में ही हुआ है अतः वे लोग कल वाले अष्टमी में पूजा करेंगे अर्थात् मां भगवती को खोईंछ भरेंगी।
कुछ लोग का मानना है जब अष्टमी तिथि आज ही हो गया सुबह 10 बजे से तो क्यों न आज ही खोईंछ भी भर लिया जाए।
हालांकि मेरे अनुसार जहां भगवती की मूर्ति पूजा की जा रही वहां नेत्र दान आज रात में होगा अतः खोईंछ भी नेत्र दान के बाद अर्थात कल ही भरना उपयुक्त होगा।
met a 21 year old in indiranagar who own 3 apps doing Rs. 7,20,000 every month, profiting Rs. 3,00,000! essentially a great re-sub rate on his primary app. no job, no dependence on location, really cracked guy who aspires to be doing > Rs. 20,00,000 profits in next six months and this makes you think on one side 1000s of kids are dying to get a job even if basic to get out of the trenches and then there are people like this guy who figured out a weird way of being independent af. mad!
@jasveer10 Completely agree with your point, sir. But what can we do as a government employee when government policies restrict me to the extent that I can’t even speak or write openly against the government?
"पापी पेट का सवाल है"
In 2023, I left @Infosys despite an onsite opportunity and a 100% hike. I joined state government PGT teacher role to prepare for UPSC.
UPSC didn’t happen. But looking at the current IT job market, I sometimes feel I made the right call.
Let’s see where it takes me. 🚀
The IT job market has become incredibly tough!
Applied for nearly 100 jobs in just one week and barely received a single call.
Just 2–3 years ago, simply uploading my resume would bring 30–40 recruiter calls a week from different companies.
With 10 years of experience in Full Stack Development, this is the first time I’m experiencing something like this.
Honestly, quite shocking how drastically the market has changed. 🙂🙏🏻
As far as backup is concerned I joined PGT Gov Computer Science Tr . But with gov job is it possible to pursue IT sector ?
Any roadmap or input will really helpful for me .
Recently got approached about another opportunity at a YC-backed startup.
The role offers ₹20–30 LPA + 0.1% equity for freshers, with higher compensation for experienced candidates, as listed on the YC startup portal.
I'm not applying myself, but if you're interested, DM me. I'd love to help.
I've been getting opportunities like this almost every month, simply because I started sharing my work publicly.
You never know who's reading your posts or what opportunities might come your way because of them.
Build in public. It will change your career.
Saying software is dead because anyone can build it is like saying photography is dead now that everyone in the world has a camera in their pocket
Not only is it not dead it's the beginning of the Kodak Brownie moment for software, and we will see an absolute explosion of it
It will be the first generation for who building software will feel no different than using it. This is crazy!
The quality and bar of what we expect from our everyday apps will be raised dramatically, we'll have personal software, we'll have disposable software, and agents will be the foundation for most of it
Tech has always been chaotic and evolving, the people who have been able to adapt and move in front of new opportunities have always excelled, this is nothing new, I'm seeing it now and we'll see it 10 years from now
Find the opportunities in the chaose and disruption, there are countless of them
