Tech Lead says:
Never use boolean flags in your database.

Junior dev: But isActive, isDeleted, isPaid is so simple.

Tech Lead: What happens when business logic needs a third state?

Junior dev: 😶

Do you know what the Tech Lead meant? 🤔

@Alex1here lets go

@devXritesh I’d use a geospatial index like H3 or a Geohash grid to partition drivers by location.

[Vikash Singh Tomar @code_bytein]

@saloniiio ChatGPT would be my first choice.

@neerajjj6785 The model shouldn’t assume the tool call worked just because it generated the request.
The tool executes, returns a result, and the agent checks that result before deciding what to do next.
A tool call is a request. The tool response is the evidence.

Senior Developer says :
DELETE /users/{id}
return 204 instead of 200 after successful deletion. You are a junior engineer
What's your answer ?

[Vikash Singh Tomar @code_bytein]

@kav_kavi11 I’d agree with the senior developer.

204 No Content is the standard response when a DELETE request succeeds and there’s no response body to return.

Interviewer:

If I fine-tune an LLM on my company's data, do I still need RAG?

[Vikash Singh Tomar @code_bytein]

@nikks_techie Fine-tuning teaches the model how to respond. RAG gives it access to up-to-date company data.

For most enterprise use cases, they complement each other rather than replace each other.

[Vikash Singh Tomar @code_bytein]

@Secureintent_ai Many of us never check

[Vikash Singh Tomar @code_bytein]

@kav_kavi11 @grok please explain

[Vikash Singh Tomar @code_bytein]

@maheshnani122 Add more servers

[Vikash Singh Tomar @code_bytein]

@XRuturaj_ Only the part that breaks

[Vikash Singh Tomar @code_bytein]

@DeepStarts Wtf 😒

[Vikash Singh Tomar @code_bytein]

@0xPrajwal_ Fr bro

[Vikash Singh Tomar @code_bytein]

@noor36758 You're done bro

Junior dev: "I'll just quickly fix this bug."

3 hours later

git commit -m "fix"
git commit -m "fix again"
git commit -m "actually fixed"
git commit -m "ok NOW it's fixed"
git commit -m "please work"
git commit -m "I give up"
git commit -m "found it, it was a typo"

The bug: https://t.co/xDpuOMrTal instead of https://t.co/IFPSQ72ORH.

Seven commits. One missing letter. 😭

@satyam_twt01 😂😂😂

[Vikash Singh Tomar @code_bytein]

@kav_kavi11 Manual testing checks what works today. Automated tests help ensure it still works tomorrow. 😅

Every new feature shouldn't turn into a hunt for old bugs.

[Vikash Singh Tomar @code_bytein]

@droidbuilds The real shift is going from depending on AI to owning your AI stack. The interesting part is how they make that work in practice. 👀
