If you want an extra-ordinary life, you've to stop living life like an average person.

Backend Developer roadmap

Stage 1: Git + GitHub
Stage 2: Linux
Stage 3: Java / Go / Python / Node.js
Stage 4: REST APIs
Stage 5: SQL — PostgreSQL / MySQL
Stage 6: Redis
Stage 7: Authentication — JWT / OAuth
Stage 8: Docker
Stage 9: Kubernetes
Stage 10: Cloud — AWS / Azure / GCP
Stage 11: CI/CD
Stage 12: Build scalable services

You don’t need to learn everything at once.
Just follow the stages, build as you go, and let the complexity come naturally.

The fastest way to get ahead is to get obsessed for 1 year. Pick one valuable skill. Study it every day. Practice it every day. Create content about it and put your proof online. One year of obsession can change your entire life.

[Tim Denning @Tim_Denning]

40 pieces of advice from 40 years of life:

1. Do extremely hard things.
2. Have a lot of s*x.
3. Study neuroplasticity.
4. Master game theory.

[tree @treeonchain]

never underestimate the speed at which your life can change.

all it takes it 3-6 months of intense focus to forever change the trajectory of your life. set a goal that seems unreasonable and slightly terrifying, get plenty of sleep, soak in the sun, educate yourself as much as possible, give yourself a creative output, chase mastery, and enjoy yourself. find work that feels like play and hobbies that fulfill you.

How to master DSA patterns for Big Tech interviews in 60 days: 🎯

Days 1-15: Linear Structures & Pointers
- Two Pointers and Sliding Window techniques
- Fast & Slow pointers for cycle detection
- Prefix Sums and Hash Map lookups

Days 16-30: Stacks, Queues & Heaps
- Monotonic Stack for next greater element problems
- Priority Queues for Top-K frequent elements and median finding
- Implementing custom min/max heaps

Days 31-45: Trees & Graphs
- Binary Trees: BFS (level-order) and DFS (pre/in/post-order)
- Binary Search Trees: Validation and Lowest Common Ancestor
- Graphs: BFS, DFS, Topological Sort, and Dijkstra's algorithm

Days 46-60: Dynamic Programming & Speed Runs
- 1D DP: Climbing Stairs, House Robber, Coin Change
- 2D DP: Longest Common Subsequence and Edit Distance
- 45-minute timed mock interviews explaining your reasoning out loud

Stop solving random problems. Master these patterns instead.
Which pattern gives you the most difficulty: Graphs or DP?

[Justin Skycak @justinskycak]

🎯 The main ingredients of effective learning:
1. Stop consuming and start producing.
2. Don't build on gaps.
3. Close the notes and pull the idea from memory.
4. Space out your reviews.
5. Mix what you practice.

Understanding algorithms changes how you code. This playlist teaches understanding.

Pavel Mavrin. 61 lectures. Free.

Here's the difference:

Before understanding algorithms:
- You use hash tables for everything
- You write code first, optimize later
- You guess at time complexity

After understanding algorithms:
- You choose the right data structure for the problem
- You think about complexity before writing code
- You recognize which pattern fits

What you'll learn =>
→ Time complexity and sorting
→ Dynamic Programming
→ Advanced trees (Segment, Fenwick, Splay, Link-Cut)
→ Graph algorithms (traversal, shortest paths, flows)
→ String algorithms (pattern matching, suffix structures)
→ FFT, Linear Programming, Cryptography

[BOSS @thebeautyofsaas]

to live an extraordinary life, all you need is to promise yourself that you will not do the things that other people around you do

forget everything you have been taught. ignore the masses and any social norms others told you are the right thing to do. it's a lifestyle trap

[段闲云 @interestxy]

告诉你一个让人生变顺的秘密，就是只关注自己。不去关注任何人的动态，不去揣测任何人的想法，不去设想一些没有发生的事情，也不要妄想用自已的主观意志去改变任何人。保持专注，提升自己，保持成长。让自己简单一点，糊徐一点，迟钝一点。最终你就发现，你少了的很多烦恼，多了很多自在。

21 GOAT AWS Projects to teach you real cloud skills

① Static Website → S3 + CloudFront
② Portfolio Site → Route 53 + SSL + CloudFront
③ EC2 Web Server → Linux + security groups
④ 3-Tier App → ALB → EC2 → RDS
⑤ Serverless API → Lambda + API Gateway
⑥ URL Shortener → Lambda + DynamoDB
⑦ File Upload System → S3 + presigned URLs
⑧ Image Processing App → S3 + Lambda
⑨ Auth System → Cognito + API Gateway
⑩ Notification System → SNS + SQS

⑪ Cost Alert System → Budgets + SNS

⑰ Log Analysis Tool → CloudWatch + Athena
⑱ Data Lake → S3 + Glue + Athena
⑲ Auto Backup System → RDS snapshots
⑳ Multi-Region Failover → Route 53 routing
㉑ Production Capstone → full AWS architecture

AWS is not mastered by watching videos.

It is mastered by building systems, breaking them, fixing them, and explaining why each service exists.

[Cap-EO 👨🏾‍💻 @EOEboh]

- Learn containerization e.g Docker
- learn orchestration with K8s
- learn infra as Code, that's mainly Terraform
- pick AWS because it has the largest job market, but Azure and GCP are still good
This is a good way to start, then things like networking, cost optimization, scaling are important skills too

Build an obsession with learning, not just passing tests.

[Natism @Natism]

Five highest forms of intelligence :
1. Pattern recognition
2. Delusional optimism
3. Quiet discernment
4. Strategic detachment
5. Deep curiosity

[SCR @SCR01111]

DSA difficulty chart looks scary until you realize you don't have to attack every topic at once.

The right strategy:

1. Start with A+/A topics
Arrays → Hashing → Strings → Linked List → Stack → Queue → Sorting → Two Pointers → Sliding Window

2. Move to S topics
Binary Search → Trees/BST → Intervals → Prefix Sum → Recursion

3. Then go for SS
Graphs → Heap → Greedy → Monotonic Stack → Monotonic Queue → K-Way Merge

4. Keep the hard topics for the end
Trie → Union Find → Dijkstra → Backtracking → DP → Advanced Graphs

Most importantly:

Don't learn DSA topic by topic just to finish a sheet.

Learn the pattern → solve easy → solve medium → identify variations → revise after gaps.

The goal isn't to make DSA easier.

It's to make the difficulty increase gradually.

[shipra @shipranotes]

Push your brain's neuroplasticity to its absolute limit.

Try different restaurants. Explore new cafés, or just sit at a different table. Listen to unfamiliar music. Switch up your workouts. Learn new languages, take up fresh hobbies, and travel to foreign countries.

Consistency is vital, but if you want to unlock fresh thinking and creativity, you must embrace novel experiences, and you must seek them often.
