Instilling fear works best in a sales pitch.

People think ₹2.5 lakh/month in hand is freedom.

Let’s do the math in an Indian metro.

₹2,50,000 in hand

₹60,000 rent (decent 2BHK, not luxury)
₹20,000 groceries + food
₹15,000 utilities, internet, phone, maintenance
₹20,000 parents support / family obligations
₹25,000 school fees / education planning (or future EMI buffer)
₹15,000 transport, fuel, cabs
₹20,000 medical, insurance, emergencies
₹15,000 social events, festivals, gifts
₹20,000 basic investing (EPF, MF, NPS)

You’re left with ~₹40,000.

That’s not freedom.
That’s just a small margin.

And this is without:
• Home loan EMI
• Kids’ coaching / college planning
• Aging parents’ medical expenses
• One bad health year
• Job loss buffer

In Indian companies, ₹30–40 LPA sounds huge on paper.
In real life, with a family, it mostly buys stability, not freedom.

Freedom is:
• 12–18 months runway without stress
• Ability to say no to toxic work
• Medical issues not wrecking finances
• Choices driven by values, not EMIs

₹2.5L/month is a great milestone.
But don’t confuse comfort with independence.

Change your goals.
Build assets, not just income.
Learn skills, earn, invest, re-invest.
At least that's what we do at @0xffdevs

So impressive, but it's not something we couldn't have seen coming as it's being made to be. Given enough compute, time and optimizations LLMs can definitely replicate an existing and well understood infrastructure? Seems more like a marketing strategy, a damn good one tho

New Engineering blog: We tasked Opus 4.6 using agent teams to build a C compiler. Then we (mostly) walked away. Two weeks later, it worked on the Linux kernel.

Here's what it taught us about the future of autonomous software development.

A public thank you to my neighbourhood cat for absolutely making my day.

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

@rayalprajwal That's a part of a carbon rich diet.

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

Eating healthy is so much easier when you cook your own food (you do get a couple battle scars from the knives though).

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

@BhavikAgarwal13 Or 11 to 15 as well

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

There's only one timetable that actually works in my experience -
1. Wake Up
2. Sit in front of the damn computer solving that one problem
3. Sleep

[spidey @lochan_twt]

going to follow this timetable from next year

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

The warm hug of childhood that I feel in the first few chapters whenever I read this <3

@drrrrrrrr186 Lol check if out

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

I put in an unjustifiable amount of time into selecting securities to invest in considering how often I see my NIFTY50 ETF investment outperforming each one of them. 💀

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

@drrrrrrrr186 Or a nancy pelosi tracker ofc

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

While interning I usually proposed multiple solutions and the leads used to take decisions. Whereas now while I frequently get suggested to finalize an approach myself after evaluating pros and cons of everything. Looking back it's also so rewarding that people trust you for it.

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

The major difference in how I work as a FTE compared to how I used to work as an intern is the amount of liberty with design and decisions I take and am expected to take.

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

I love the vibe at the office during year end, so quiet and peaceful.

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

@drrrrrrrr186 Long distance flights are nightmares. I can't tolerate them for a single hour.

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

I hate traveling from the bottom of my heart. I swear to god I can't sit on one more of those god forsaken flight seats.

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

@ProbablyOm You can neither enjoy the destination nor the journey here.

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

Now the flight is delayed by 3.5 hours and we are informed just an hour before the departure. This keeps getting better.

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

[Divyansh Tripathi @theoden42]

@rayalprajwal Yes, yet again.
