Never imagined I’d meet a chess GM at a tech event, but met @viditchess

Explored AI Studio with Gemini 3.0 and even built DevPulse in a short span. Big thanks to Ali for a wonderful session.

Give it a try - https://t.co/exXZ0urHco

Appalling! @ICICIPruLife & @policybazaar subjected me to exhaustive medicals, took loaded premiums, then quietly cancelled my term policy 9 months later over a vague 'mismatch'
Pure harassment & breach of trust. I refuse the refund. Escalating to @IRDA_OFICIAL & @jagograhakjago

As promised, this is happening!

For each batch, I’ll be taking a 3-hour session next week. The idea is simple: by the end of it, you’ll be familiar with: RAG, MCP, LLMs, Agents, Fine-tuning, and Quantization.

You’ll receive a Google Calendar invite with all the Zoom joining details via email.

Next step: Kindly fill out this quick form: https://t.co/3dwMkEfToK

I’ll post an update here as soon as the invites are sent.

A lot of effort is going into making this happen. I’d truly appreciate it if you could reshare this.

Follow me for updates!

Found gaps in backend APIs while integrating expenses.

Aligning contracts, logged missing endpoints, added temp mocks to stay unblocked.

Small steps forward.

@striver_79 100%. They marketed to the users who think AI is magic, and you marketed to the engineers who think Clean Architecture is magic.

Two different target audiences, both successfully engaged. 4D Chess move! ♟️😂

Running into a weird issue with my JWT refresh logic.

Sometimes the session renews, sometimes the app jumps to “unauthorized.”

Today’s focus: stabilizing the token refresh + storage flow.
