@Samiksha2908 Compatibility with apple pencil is a really cool thing.

100k+ in 18 hours!! 💀

Gotta do more of these. @risbdev @cha73066

Best part of Super 30 getting to build with my roommates.

Built BookMyShow from scratch in 4 hours.

No AI usage. Just us.

@JarvisVarvis @risbdev @cha73066 @100xSchool @omjikush09 @100xDevs @rohanBuilds Only if it didn't have complicated recommendation algorithms. Other major features definitely doable.

Following Arpit Bhayani's course and deep dive into system optimisations

[Rishabh Chaudhary @risbdev]

Nothing fancy.
Just a white board and Blinkit’s architecture

Inadvertently, Day 1 has been good...

Type of shit which made me start software engineering. Will create and share a case study on bitchat's architecture and working this week.

[GG @UnruggableGG]

India just gave the whole internet a free lesson on the power of FOSS (Free and open-source software).

The Home Ministry's cybercrime unit ordered GitHub to delete BitChat. Three hour deadline. Comply or face legal action.

Here's the problem with that plan.

BitChat runs on pure Bluetooth mesh. No internet. No SIM. No phone number. No central server. Protesters started using it precisely because the government kept shutting the internet off, and it just kept working.

You cannot delete an app that's already living on people's phones and passing messages device to device.

And the source code? Open source. Within hours it was mirrored to a decentralized platform. Every person who copies it becomes another node the order can't reach.

This is the whole point of self custody thinking, applied to communication instead of money.

You can serve a takedown to a company. There's a CEO, an office, a legal team, a single point of pressure.

You cannot serve a takedown to a network that nobody owns.

India didn't kill BitChat. It ran a live demo of why unkillable infrastructure exists.

@priyankapudi @paraschopra US policy limits how many high-end GPUs India can import. This is an overlooked part of geo-politics. US has the Best AI companies & controls the computational power as well. Meanwhile Indian MNCs don't even spend 5% of their revenue on R&D

@palak1002 Just gotta keep throwing outputs in the world unless it lands in the right place ig💀

@BrijeshShahDev @aybuilds @Samiksha2908 @kirat_tw key takeaways were:Focus on building products not resume 'projects',Follow your intuition when pursuing new fields like AI, create projects that the market needs. Follow trends, read mem0 research paper,pydentic AI,do honest work with blinders on for 10-12 hours for 3-4 months.

[Dhruv Rajput @dhruuuvv__]

@Samiksha2908 @100xSchool @kirat_tw The patience to take on each and every question was truly admirable, even after 2 hours you had the same enthusiasm to clear everyone's doubt, much appreciated.🙌🏻

Need to try this might be something revolutionary if executed well

Today, we're announcing the death of the resume. And the launch of Cruitical.

We spoke with over 600 people on the streets of San Francisco, and we now see the problem clearer than anyone.

Hiring has never been more broken, both sides are losing, and it's reaching a cataclysmic state faster than people realize. It was never designed to find the truth, it was designed to filter.

@trycruitical gives employers a complete picture of every candidate before the first interview -- how they think, how they learn, how they perform under real conditions.

And gives candidates a way to be seen for what they actually are, and get better.

@priyankapudi I always figured rather than extracting information, the real learning was taking time to contemplate ideas when reading. For academic books condensed information might be all they have to offer , but for novels? They're an experience...

@GlitchedLoop3 I like to start with 100 easy enough questions to get comfortable with the syntax. Then you make a todo, then to deep dive you gotta work on specific usecases. 1 great thing is to read how the language handles async operation

@usman_akinyemi That usman learnt rust

[Dhruv Rajput @dhruuuvv__]

@usman_akinyemi Rust paglu.
Completed 4 hrs rust bootcamp on yt by Harkirat while traveling today. Practiced 40-50 questions to get comfortable with compiler and syntax. Will start making the matching engine soon

The new oneui 8.5 update brought crazy smoothness but introduced audio eraser. It can block out laugh tracks in a standup video and focus on artists voice, concert videos get 3x better audio. Can't wrap my head around how it's able to do this in real time, works in any app
