Ajay Yadav

January 2022 → March 2026. 4 years. No connections. No privilege. Just a guy from Siwan, Bihar with a laptop and internet. I'm writing the most honest post of my life on @thedivsoup, everything about: - How I started (with literally zero audience) - The grinding days nobody saw - Mistakes that cost me months - Every way I make money today - What I'd do differently as a beginner - A proper blueprint for career + money Not the "follow your passion" nonsense. Real numbers. Real timeline. Real failures. 99% transparent. The remaining 1%? Some things you just can't put on the internet. But after reading it, you'll have a clearer picture of how career building and money-making actually works, especially if you're starting from a small town with no roadmap. Dropping soon. Stay tuned.

@amritwt 😄

typescript is not built on top of javascript anymore 🫶

@gupta_rekha We need such an initiative in Bihar also. cc @officecmbihar @samrat4bjp

@SakshiSugandhi I don't have answer, do u have? 😄

Interviewer: You just ran a DELETE query directly in production database… with no WHERE clause. 1 million rows vanished in under 2 seconds. What’s your immediate recovery plan? How do you handle this disaster??

@ATechAjay Expecting someone named Ajay Yadav to help with it 😀

We’ve developed a Discord bot that notifies employees on their birthdays, anniversaries, and on upcoming company holidays. We can also ask it about an employee and it returns public info about them. We call it Creobot. Planning to open-source it soon, btw, what features to add?

A NativeWind footgun that cost me 30 minutes: Your "" produces zero styles. No errors. No warnings. Just unstyled output. Cause: missing babel.config.js Three configs must be wired: • tailwind.config.js - defines classes • metro.config.js - compiles them • babel.config.js - rewrites Skip any one, no errors and no styles.

@tapasadhikary Excited for this series. 🥳

5 days to go ◻️ ◻️ ◻️ ◻️ ◻️ Some more updates on the FullStack series: - Recorded first 2 episodes - Two of them edited and ready(yay 😊) - Made the code repo ready The series starts on 5th May!!! Super excited.

You only need 5 things: 1. Internet 2. Laptop 3. Time 4. Honesty 5. Patience You can live your dream life.

⭐ Ready to shape AI around your workflow in @Code? We just dropped new VS Code Learn content with our Customizations course, focused on helping you tailor AI in VS Code using custom agents, instructions, skills, prompt files, and hooks. Start the learning path with Ep 1: aka.ms/customization-…

@ashadahmed_ Yeah correct 😅

@ATechAjay Absolutely!! Also, funny but it’s the new implementations where we find more bugs on an average 😆

Unpopular opinion: Fixing bugs teaches more than implementing new features. Agree?

Most reminder apps fail because they treat memory as a calendar problem. Set a date. Get a reminder. But the questions in real life aren't "when": they're "how many days do I have left?" Different problem. Different math. Different app. Building Remind Me 1/3 👇

Different problem. Different math. Different app.

Calendar apps treat all four the same: a date. Predictive apps compute the date for you, from quantities and intervals. That's the entire pitch. Building this as Remind Me. Open beta in ~6 weeks. #buildinpublic #reactnative #indiehacker

Four paradigms cover almost everything: • Consumable: 20L water, 2.5L/day → 8 days • Recurring: medicine every 7 days • Spaced: 1d / 3d / 7d / 21d / 60d for revision • Events: a date + lead time Each gets its own form, its own math. 2/3
