Reviewed a friend’s resume today.
He is a young backend engineer, worked on product backends, trading workflows, infra, Solana stuff, and some pretty serious Rust projects too. On first look, the resume feels strong cause there is real work in it, not just random tutorial projects and fake impact lines.
But after reading it properly, I was reminded of something many engineers do wrong:
A resume can have good work and still be badly positioned.
Good:
- Real backend experience in production
- Ownership over infra and backend systems
- Good technical projects, especially the Rust HTTP/3 and ingestion work
- Strong enough stack for backend roles like Rust, Go, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Docker, AWS
- Built things used by actual users, which already puts him ahead of many resumes
Bad:
- Some bullets feel too inflated for the years of experience
- A few metrics are not strong enough to impress, like “1000 active users” sounds honest but not like a killer signal
- Too many keywords are packed into single lines
- Summary is generic and does not clearly say what kind of engineer he really is
- Good work is there, but the story is not sharp
Ugly:
- “AI-assisted development” section should be deleted fully
- Some bullets sound more like research abstract than resume bullet
- It tells me tech used, but not enough about what problem was solved
- Strongest points are buried under fancy wording
- It tries a bit too hard to sound advanced instead of sounding credible
---
My biggest takeaway after reviewing his resume:
A lot of software engineers are not held back by lack of skill.
They are held back by weak positioning.
Your resume is not the place to sound intellectual.
It is the place to sound clear, useful, and believable.
Built what?
For whom?
At what scale?
What improved?
That is it.
Not every bullet needs to sound like you invented distributed systems.
A good resume makes recruiter think:
“This person can come in and solve backend problems.”
A bad one makes recruiter think:
“This person knows many words.”
Very small difference in writing.
But massive difference in outcomes.

@ChShersh now I find writing basic functions very unproductive.

@vivoplt Refusing small beginnings is a silent career killer.

Hot takes:
1. Job-hopping will pay you faster than loyalty ever will.
2. Refusing small beginnings is a silent career killer.
3. University is the same as being unemployed but your parents are proud of you
4. Job hunting is such a humiliation ritual
5. Leaving a toxic job for your mental health is actually a win.
6. Imagine applying for a job then not picking up calls from random numbers
7. Anyone saying “my job gives me a purpose in life" is genuinely a slave

@heygandharva I don't think there are enough unemployed full stack

🚨BREAKING: Qatar just declared force majeure on LNG contracts to Italy, Belgium, South Korea, and China.
For up to 5 years.
Here's what the CEO just told
In an exclusive interview with Reuters, Qatar's Energy Minister and CEO of QatarEnergy just confirmed the damage from Iran's attack on Ras Laffan.
It's worse than anyone thought.
→ 2 out of 14 LNG trains damaged
→ 1 of 2 gas-to-liquids (GTL) facilities damaged
→ 12.8 million tonnes per year of LNG offline for 3-5 years
→ 17% of Qatar's total LNG export capacity gone
→ $20 billion annual revenue loss
→ $26 billion in damaged facilities (the CEO said they "should not be attacked")
QatarEnergy may declare force majeure on long term LNG supply contracts to:
→ Italy
→ Belgium
→ South Korea
→ China
For up to 5 years.
Additional exports declining:
→ Condensates: Down 24%
→ LPG: Down 13%
→ Naphtha: Down 6%
→ Sulphur: Down 6%
→ Helium: Down 14%
The damaged trains:
→ Train S4 and S6: 30% owned by ExxonMobil, rest by QatarEnergy
Production cannot restart until hostilities cease.
What this means?
12.8 million tonnes per year = 17% of Qatar's LNG capacity.
17% of its capacity just disappeared for 3-5 years.
Italy, Belgium, South Korea, China:
These countries had long-term contracts with Qatar.
Force majeure means those contracts are suspended.
They now have to compete in spot markets for replacement cargoes.
Against each other.
And against every other buyer scrambling for LNG.
$20 billion per year in lost revenue for Qatar.
$26 billion in facilities damaged.
The only country with capacity to absorb Qatari volumes at scale is the United States.
I wrote a full breakdown on how this shift benefits US LNG producers and which stocks are positioned to win from Qatar's structural supply loss👇

Elon Musk thinks @Google will win the AI race overall!
However, he also sees China winning “on Earth” and SpaceX in space with its upcoming AI satellites.

English

@adamdorfx @elonmusk @bindureddy Google has distribution; China has distillation. No one can beat that
English

@elonmusk @bindureddy I don't think China will win - they aren't truth seekers
English

Gemini 3.0 didn’t quite work out and most of us are still stuck with 2.5
Sometimes I don’t get it - what’s preventing Google from ditching all the side hustles and training 100 models from 100 teams in parallel
Pick the model/team combination that produces a decent model!
That way, they will at least stay in the AI race 😅

@elonmusk I am afraid, you may be right about China...
How does Google win in the West, if China wins the Earth? 😅

@bindureddy Google will win the AI race in the West, China on Earth and SpaceX in space

Why admit defeat. Why not have faith in Xai, and the real world robotics / AI team at Tesla

@lovnexora Read a lot, experience things, spend time with people, help them, be a polymath generalist, get really intense about things you're interested in

@vijayshekhar china will take over AI; their models are cheap

How many of you will take a bet on this or against this?
