If the day ends in regret for your missteps and lazy decisions, you will not receive a good night's sleep, but a restless, anxiety-filled last hour of the day.

Happy New Year to everyone #NewYear2026 The only New Year's resolution I have is - Every day when I go to sleep, I must feel a sense of satisfaction about what I have done throughout the day and not regret.

@rahuldotsol Why did you not join this company ? It's not on your LinkedIn

I'm thrilled to announce that I've successfully cleared the interview process for the Associate Software Developer profile at Cyntexa Labs Pvt Ltd! #SoftwareEngineering #SoftwareDeveloper #CyntexaLabs

@abshekha Getting prepared for interviews is the easy part getting an interview withotu experience is a pain and struggle, if you can guide us about that it would be helpful. I see job postings asking for 2-5 years of experience for 4LPA job

If you are aiming for Big Tech & can work diligently for 10-15 hrs/week for about 3 months, read this tweet. In this worst market, a mentee was able to 3x his CTC (~ 1 Cr) in India, by following this simple advice. CAUTION: > This is NOT the only way but one of the ways I've seen working. > If you have less than 21 days, this guide is NOT for you. High Level Plan (with resources): (I will deep dive on each step in later tweets) > You need to gain ground on DSA, System Design, LLD & your resume. Most big tech focus on these only. > Prepare your resume first. You'll not be able to apply anywhere/talk about yourself without it. Be thorough with each project inside it. > Keep on applying to jobs that align with even 30% of your expertise. Don't reject yourself. Yes, apply first! Once your resume is done. Apply. Recruiters take time to reach out anyway. > Don't apply to ALL dream companies in the first iteration above. Maybe apply to one. > Choose 1 platform for Data Structure & Algorithms practice. I recommend Leetcode because of popularity. Do whatever sheet you want to do but practice questions daily. Take notes on where you falter. Don't just think about the solution. Implement or you will fail. (More on deep DSA prep in another tweet) > If you are new to System Design, read donnemartin/system-design-primer on github. Read this 2 times. It will give you a basic understanding of things you don't know. Cover the breadth of System Design before going deeper. Get Alex Xu (@alexxubyte) books. Both volumes. Read them cover to cover multiple times. Watch Jordan has no life YouTube iff you have time. Practice mocks under time. (There is more nuance here, will cover in another tweet) > LLD requires you to code + design. Make a list of all the design patterns, ask AI to summarize with an example & quiz you on this. If you have time watch Concept && Coding YouTube channel. Read the concurrency basics. (Use AI) I'll just try to spend less time here as compared to other things. > Invest about 60-70% time practicing DSA, 25% system design, 5% LLD. This will vary depending upon who you are. > DO MOCKS. DO MOCKS. DO MOCKS. Don't skip this. You'll fail the interviews. > Once you have covered the breadth of all the topics above, just start applying. Ask for referrals. You'll never feel ready. Apply anyway. > Prepare a log of your interviews. Don't make the same mistake again. > Use mocks to calm your wits & make mistakes. Have fun in the interview. I'll write a detailed draft for each of the sections above. Let me know your questions below, will answer in the upcoming tweets. Most of you'll never read till this line. Like I said, this guide isn't for most of you. Just for a select few. If you are one of them, I wish you luck. See you on the other side. 🚀

@kunalstwt Kunal bhai, I have been following you for many years, but I don't know what your role "Field CTO" is. I was curious to understand what that role involves and how it connects to software development. Is it a better career than being a software engineer?

Nearly a month in Japan left me inspired. Now back in London, recharged and brimming with ideas. Let’s build some cool things.

Good Morning Finally crossed 150 wpm on MonkeyType

@toggl It was to receive a verification mail, and the issue was that when I auto-selected my email id, it also added a space after the email; hence, I did not receive any mail. Then I updated my mail ID without any spaces and finally received the verification mail.

@Amaankf Hey Amaan! Thanks for reaching out! Could you tell us whether this is when you are signing up, inviting a user, or another place in the app? Also, are you still having trouble receiving the verification email?

Hey @toggl I have an issue to raise. When you are taking email from the user, do use .trim() function to remove white spaces in the string because it is also registering the white spaces, which ends up not sending the email for verification. Hope you look into this matter.

@Flipkart @flipkartsupport @amazonIN Until this changes, think twice before buying expensive electronics online. Or at least record your unboxing. You're on your own after checkout. or even better only buy expensive electronics item offline and double check

@Flipkart @flipkartsupport We chose online shopping for convenience, speed, and security. All three are now at risk. If returns are gone, what’s left? @amazonIN @flipkartsupport

Amazon India once advertised its “no questions asked” return policy. Now it’s gone, especially for high-ticket items like laptops, monitors, and electronics. No returns, only service center replacement. You pay more, get less protection. Online shopping is losing its spark🧵

Keep your head down and work hard, make the day a success, year will take care of itself

Replicating features from big apps 🧠 teaches you way more than tutorials ever can 📺. Tutorials skip niche details to stay general — but those skipped parts are exactly what you learn when building your own projects 🛠️🚀

@InterviewsChat seriusly man it's is so frustrating like you know all the answers but no one is asking questions

Getting a Job interview is harder than cracking the interview

Seeing myself as a victim never helped. I’ve taken full ownership of my life💪. From now on, I decide what happens. No one’s coming to save me — it’s on me 🔥
