@thestoicccoder Bro that inspired me so much, as someone who is studying in college and in 2nd year, i feel like there is so much to achieve
Btw you’ve mentioned that you work ad research scientist, what does that mean?
What kind of skillset is required?
English

my museum of victories as a 22 year old:
1. working remotely as a research scientist in post-training/multimodal ai with a ctc of 78k usd which is approx 72 lpa INR
2. visited 7 countries: singapore, japan, china, hawai, thailand, vietnam, south korea . worked remotely from a few others were company offsite
3. graduated with more than 7 off-campus job offers all over 18lpa from a college where highest package was 10.
4. completed over 11 internships spanning research, sde, ml and devops
5. 5 publications in A* conferences including ICML, ICLR, NeurIPS
6. worked with some of the top professors and phd students in the world getting some insane LORs in the process
7. got ms admits from 7 of the top 15 US colleges
8. Used to weigh 52kgs when i started engineering, got to 79kgs with a decent amount of muscle.
9. helped rebuild my grandparents house.
10. went on a full north to south vietnam trip with my bestfriend of 15 years
11. helped pay off parent's debts
12. finally bought a MacBook of my own
13. working on my first solo author paper under guidance of someone from DeepMind
the only reason I posted all this is because I know how scary it is getting overwhelmed by all the progress happening and it's okay to be scared that you might not make it. but there's something you should remember:
It only takes one big win to cancel all the losses. just one win.
for me that win was getting my first internship and it was just uphill from there. I'll say the same thing I said a year ago, keep your head down, keep working, keep learning , do not lose that curiosity at any cost, have that consistency, it's fine to have off days, it's fine to get distracted but never lose sight of your end goal. and when you do win you'll realise the amount of effort it actually takes to make it and you'll be grateful and proud of yourself that you put in the work.
may you never ever lose the desire to pursue things no matter how hard it gets.
keep grinding.

I've never studied over 12 hours consistently.
but starting from tomorrow,
ready or not - I take this up ⚔️
Hero Of Justice@herooffjustice
all planned. April to August requires My best performance and time management so far, this is where I take the leap.

@SpiceitupAli Yeah, it's a real momentum killer. I skip those sections entirely now and just search for the core concept on the official docs or a dedicated blog.

YT tutorials are not the same anymore
Yesterday i was following a tutorial on FastAPI, after reaching a certain part, the guy started integrating the service provided by their sponsor.
which is of no use for almost everyone learning FastAPI, and after reaching DB integration part, the guy started to write code without explaining.
Felt like he was just doing for the sake to complete the tutorial and softly promote their sponsor
Even the comments were filled with this:

@piyush784066 ofc u gotta take advantage of lightweight and portability😜

this mf @SalesBlastBen copied Fazio's tweets word-for-word and got blocked
as funny as it sounds, it's just a stupid move imo
here's the difference between smart copying and dumb plagiarism:
WHAT BEN DID (dumb plagiarism):
saw daniel fazio's tweet: "made $47k this month from faceless pages while everyone was asking for raises"
copied EXACTLY: "made $47k this month from faceless pages while everyone was asking for raises"
result: got caught, got blocked, looks like fraud, destroyed credibility
that's not strategy, that's theft wearing a mustache
WHAT BEN SHOULD'VE DONE (smart modeling):
saw daniel's winning formula: [specific revenue number] + [time period] + [contrast with traditional path]
studied why it works: specificity + proof + positioning against 9-5
rewrote in own voice with own numbers: "made $31k this month from contractor templates while my old coworkers waited for 3% raises"
result: same psychological impact, different execution, zero theft, builds own brand
THE DIFFERENCE:
plagiarism: copy the exact words (lazy, illegal, gets you blocked)
modeling: copy the structure, strategy, formula (smart, legal, how every business scales)
ben chose plagiarism because he's lazy.
every successful business is modeled off something else:
facebook didn't invent social networks (copied myspace, friendster)
google didn't invent search engines (copied yahoo, altavista)
amazon didn't invent ecommerce (copied bookstores, made them online)
tesla didn't invent electric cars (copied concept, made them luxury)
they copied the STRATEGY, not the exact execution.
THE FORMULA COPYING:
daniel fazio's winning tweet formula (what ben should've studied):
structure: [revenue number] + [time period] + [method] + [contrast with traditional]
example: "$47k this month from faceless pages while everyone was asking for raises"
psychology: specific proof + positioning against 9-5 struggle
ben should've copied THIS formula with his own stats:
"$28k this month from digital products while old coworkers got 2% raises"
"$34k in september from templates while friends applied to 40 jobs"
"$19k last week from one niche while manager said 'budget constraints'"
same formula, different numbers, own voice, zero theft.
THE SMART STEAL:
copying daniel's content the RIGHT way:
DANIEL'S TWEET: "built product in 8 hours with claude, made $4,100 first month, now making $14k monthly"
WRONG WAY (plagiarism): copy word-for-word
RIGHT WAY (modeling):
identify formula: [build time] + [AI tool] + [month 1 revenue] + [current revenue]
identify psychology: speed to build + AI leverage + revenue proof + growth
rewrite with YOUR stats: "built contractor templates in 6 hours with claude, made $2,800 first month, now making $9,200 monthly"
you copied strategy, not sentences.
THE BUSINESS MODEL COPYING:
where copying is ESSENTIAL:
business model: always copy (reinventing wheel is stupid)
market positioning: study and adapt (see what works, make it yours)
pricing strategy: model competitors (test similar ranges)
traffic sources: copy exactly (they proved it works, use same channels)
product format: iterate on existing (templates, guides, calculators all exist)
where copying is THEFT:
exact wording: never copy (that's plagiarism)
brand voice: never copy (build your own)
specific examples: never copy (use your own numbers, stories)
visual design: never copy (that's copyright infringement)
THE NICHE COPYING:
i literally copied proven niches:
saw competitor making $39k from contractor templates
copied: niche selection (contractors), product type (templates), price point ($67)
didn't copy: exact templates, sales page wording, specific examples
result: built in same niche, made $56k total, zero conflict because execution was different
that's smart copying.
THE DANIEL FAZIO SITUATION:
daniel fazio has 28k followers, makes content about faceless pages
ben rasmussen copied his tweets word-for-word
daniel blocked him (obviously)
ben looks like fraud, damaged reputation, got nothing
what ben SHOULD'VE done:
studied daniel's content strategy (what topics get engagement)
analyzed daniel's positioning (how he stands out)
modeled daniel's post formulas (structure, not words)
targeted different sub-niche (daniel does broad, ben could do specific like "faceless pages for trades")
built own brand with own voice, same strategy
THE FORMULA EXTRACTION:
daniel's proven post formulas (study these, don't copy text):
formula 1: [shocking revenue] + [simple method] + [time investment]
formula 2: [problem everyone has] + [solution nobody talks about] + [specific outcome]
formula 3: [traditional path fail] + [faceless page win] + [numbers comparison]
formula 4: [built in X hours] + [made $Y month 1] + [now making $Z]
these formulas are PUBLIC DOMAIN (psychological patterns).
exact wording is COPYRIGHT (daniel's property).
copy formulas, write your own words.
THE POSITIONING THEFT:
ben's other mistake: copied positioning without differentiation
daniel positions as: "faceless page expert teaching digital products"
ben copied: exact same positioning, same niche, same angle
result: looks like daniel clone, no unique value
what ben should've done:
studied daniel's positioning (faceless page + digital products)
found gap: daniel doesn't focus on specific industries
differentiated: "faceless pages specifically for service businesses" or "faceless pages for tradespeople"
same strategy, different angle, unique position
THE CONTENT MODELING:
how to model content without plagiarizing:
step 1: find 5 posts that performed well for competitor
step 2: identify pattern (what structure do they share?)
step 3: extract formula (revenue + timeframe + method + contrast)
step 4: plug in YOUR numbers (your revenue, your timeframe, your story)
step 5: write in YOUR voice (your tone, your examples, your angle)
result: modeled strategy, original content, zero theft.
THE SPECIFIC EXAMPLE:
DANIEL'S ORIGINAL: "made $5,200 last month from one digital product i built in 6 hours. my friends are still applying to jobs."
BEN'S PLAGIARISM: "made $5,200 last month from one digital product i built in 6 hours. my friends are still applying to jobs." (word-for-word copy)
BEN'S SMART VERSION SHOULD'VE BEEN: "made $3,800 last month from contractor templates i built in one weekend. my old coworkers are still asking for raises."
same formula (revenue + product + build time + contrast), different execution (own numbers + own industry + own voice).
THE COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS:
what you SHOULD copy from competitors:
pricing: if they charge $67 and sell well, price yours at $57-77
format: if templates sell, make templates (don't reinvent format)
niche: if contractors buy, target contractors (proven demand)
traffic: if pinterest works for them, use pinterest (proven channel)
what you SHOULDN'T copy from competitors:
exact wording: that's their content (plagiarism)
brand name: that's their identity (trademark infringement)
design: that's their IP (copyright violation)
specific examples: those are their stories (just lying if you copy)
THE BEN OUTCOME:
by copying word-for-word:
got blocked by daniel (lost access to free learning)
exposed publicly (20k people saw the screenshot)
damaged reputation (now known as plagiarist)
gained nothing (didn't even build own brand)
if he'd modeled instead of copied:
learned from daniel's strategy (improved his own content)
built own brand (unique voice in same space)
made own money (same formulas, own numbers)
kept respect (everyone models, few plagiarize)
THE COPYING HIERARCHY:
level 1 (dumb): copy exact words, get blocked, make $0
level 2 (lazy): copy niche but don't understand why it works, make $400/month
level 3 (smart): copy strategy, adapt execution, make $4k/month
level 4 (genius): copy strategy, improve execution, dominate niche, make $40k/month
ben operated at level 1.
successful people operate at level 3-4.
THE REAL LESSON:
every successful business copied something:
mcdonald's copied white castle (fast food model)
starbucks copied italian coffee culture (third place concept)
uber copied taxis (made them tech-enabled)
airbnb copied hotels (made them peer-to-peer)
they copied MODEL, not EXECUTION.
ben copied WORDS, not MODEL.
that's why mcdonald's is worth billions and ben got blocked.
THE RIGHT APPROACH:
what i do (legal, ethical, profitable):
find competitor making $39k from contractor templates
study: what niche (contractors), what product (templates), what price ($67)
validate: proven demand exists, low competition, high pain point
build: same niche, same product type, OWN content, OWN examples
launch: same traffic channels (reddit, pinterest), own positioning
result: make $56k in same niche, zero conflict, built own brand
copied everything except the content itself.
THE CONTENT STRATEGY:
daniel fazio's content teaches me:
specific numbers work (he posts exact revenue, i post exact revenue)
contrasts work (he compares to 9-5, i compare to 9-5)
build times work (he mentions hours, i mention hours)
outcomes work (he shows results, i show results)
i copied WHAT WORKS (psychological triggers).
i didn't copy WHAT HE SAID (his specific words).
THE PLAGIARISM COST:
ben lost by plagiarizing:
credibility: destroyed (everyone saw him copy)
relationships: blocked by daniel + probably others
learning: can't see daniel's new content anymore
opportunities: nobody wants to work with plagiarist
revenue: $0 (spent time copying instead of building)
all because he was too lazy to rewrite in his own voice.
THE MODELING BENEFIT:
i gained by modeling:
credibility: built (original content, real numbers)
relationships: learned from daniel publicly, no conflict
learning: still follow daniel, implement his strategies with my execution
opportunities: people reach out because i have unique angle
revenue: $295k year 1 (built while modeling others)
all because i extracted formulas, wrote my own content.
THE FORMULA:
copying done right:
step 1: find what's working (competitor analysis)
step 2: extract why it works (formula identification)
step 3: adapt to your situation (own numbers, own niche angle)
step 4: execute in your voice (rewrite everything)
step 5: improve on original (make it 10% better)
result: modeled success, built own brand, made own money.
copying done wrong:
step 1: find what's working (competitor analysis)
step 2: copy word-for-word (plagiarism)
step 3: post as your own (fraud)
step 4: get caught (inevitable)
step 5: get blocked (ben's outcome)
result: destroyed reputation, made $0, learned nothing.
THE TRUTH:
ben copied daniel word-for-word and got blocked
that's not genius, that's just stupid plagiarism
genius is: copy the strategy (revenue + timeframe + method + contrast formula)
stupid is: copy the words (exact sentences, exact numbers, exact examples)
every 6-figure business copied a successful model and adapted it
zero 6-figure businesses copied exact content word-for-word
difference: model the winner, execute like yourself
ben modeled like loser, executed like thief, got blocked like he deserved
if you want the exact formula extraction process for modeling competitors without plagiarizing, DM "MODEL" @imsehej

Startup doesn't mean just development and deployment. There are more other things to consider like licenses, administration, communication, sales etc.
IMO, since you're student start with job and taste the water how it works. Once you get the idea of whole workflow and how it process go for your startup.
