I am interviewing a lot of candidates these days
for forward deployed engineering roles

I am only looking for these 2 signals
in their story:

A] Sharp B] High agency

[Sagar @code_sagar]

@srcbuild Candidates who scored 77-85 actually cleared the coding rounds with ease

[Sagar @code_sagar]

Few days back I went to campus interview at a tier 1 college and left shocked

Students who scored 100/100 in there OA couldn’t compile there code in live coding rounds

Students please understand DSA
is not the only criteria
but you gotta be able to compile
and explain your code

[Sagar @code_sagar]

As a forward deployed engineer
you are not expected to know everything

yet you have to explain it like you do

[Sagar @code_sagar]

Innovation in corporate happens only when you have delusional boss

[Sagar @code_sagar]

AI slop has taken over tier 3 india

every banner, political poster and small advertisement is fully
Nano Banana

my entire town is an AI slop

[Sagar @code_sagar]

Pre ipo I’ll always say good things

[Kalshi @Kalshi]

JUST IN: Anthropic says "AI could push US GDP to $44 trillion by 2030"

[Sagar @code_sagar]

We have flying cars, cancer vaccine, robots walking and space shuttles caught with chopsticks

yet if your manager asks you to update JIRA

you know what to do

[Sagar @code_sagar]

Elon will go down in history as the biggest contributor of humanity and science

[Sagar @code_sagar]

There should only be 2 environments

Dev
Prod

and we categorise the apps

a) mission critical
- healthcare
- space
- logistics etc

b) others
- e-commerce
- dating etc.

other than a) just push to prod directly

[Sagar @code_sagar]

@Abhijit_091 At coding yes. But not e2e ownership of the product.

[Sagar @code_sagar]

@_KiranRajput True

[Sagar @code_sagar]

@dotnetsme Absolutely. That’s the difference I’m also noticing as well.

Few people are doing great work while others are struggling like crazy

[Sagar @code_sagar]

@1kunalbahl I work in consulting and I can certify this that the most threatened people in a typical org are the middle manager (manager, SM, D, SD)

there is a massive fear in that band

[Sagar @code_sagar]

I just need 1 year just to experiment and soak in what is going on in AI

every software that was ever built is up for revamp

every business workflow is ready to evolve for agents

every money making patterns is going renaissance

[Sagar @code_sagar]

Till then at least I have a job

[Burak @xburak]

You think the whole world is building apps because you spend too much time on X.

Step outside and you'll realize most people don't even know wtf Claude Code / Codex is.

[Sagar @code_sagar]

Context engineering is the only moat

[Sagar @code_sagar]

As an FDE there is one job that you must master in

1. Storytelling with data
2. Next best action recommendations
3. Ability to use agents to their full potential

[Sagar @code_sagar]

6 months bs doesn’t works in emerging economies

Example India
We have 10 generations of poverty to deal with plus the risk of no support from government

Most of our millennial money goes to buying a home which most people lag

So these isolated feedback is good
but doesn’t apply to you prolly

[DAN KOE @thedankoe]

All you have to do is commit for 6 months.

That's not a lot. It's actually very little.

6 months is 1% of 50 years, and most people can't stick to something that will change the trajectory of their life for 2 weeks.

[Sagar @code_sagar]

This why I pay my Indian Internet service providers money

[Tech with Mak @techNmak]

You can literally type a sentence and watch a Transformer process it.

This interactive explainer runs a GPT-style model in the browser and lets you follow the whole path:

tokenization → embeddings → Q/K/V → attention → MLP → logits → next-token probabilities

You can inspect attention maps, intermediate values, and change temperature, top-k and top-p to see how generation changes.

If Transformers still feel like boxes connected by arrows, this is worth opening.
