As a software engineer, it's very important to learn about Gall’s Law, which states that complex systems cannot be created successfully from scratch. In reality, even large systems, such as Netflix, Google, or Facebook, have started small and built incrementally over the course of decades.

Herd mentality can trap you. Herd immunity can save you. If 90% get vaccinated, even the 10% who don’t are safer. Sometimes, being part of the right crowd protects you. Choose your crowd wisely. #HerdImmunity #MentalModel #Psychology

The anchoring effect tricks us into focusing on the first info we get. Salespeople use high starting prices to make later offers look cheap. Stay sharp! #AnchoringEffect #CognitiveBias #BehavioralEconomics #Sales #Marketing #Psychology

Sometimes you'll find that people have developed their own terminologies while working on a project for far too long (let's say 5 to 10 years) that they feel is the industry term but nobody uses it except for them. It can get weirdly frustrating. #developerproblems

@TheJackForge Not saying this dude is a fraud, but saw this comment on his video. And to say the least I don't believe in his story now.

People see work as a Job, Career, or Calling. Those who view it as a calling tend to perform better and feel happier. The good news? It’s easier than you think to find meaning in what you do. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@TonyCatoff I think he might've misunderstood you here for a scammer, I treat any WhatsApp message from a foreign number as a scam - since I don't have any foreign contacts that're on WhatsApp. And this conversation does seem like he might've thought the same.

Sometimes job candidates in India don’t take rejection very well… Wtf is a chutya?

Day 100 of #100DaysOfCode. I learned about container runtime in detail and found a few amazing resources and it was fascinating. TBH, I didn't complete the challenge with consistency, but I learned a lot about programming, go, and my own style of learning github.com/itishrishikesh…

Day 99 of #100DaysOfCode. Learning about how containers work with this talk youtube.com/watch?v=8fi7uS…

Day 98 of #100DayOfCode. Wrote a simple grpc server and client. It doesn't do anything right now, but things work and communication between client and server happens. github.com/itishrishikesh…

Day 97 of #100DayOfCode. I hit an unexpected break with this challenge but I'm still continuing from where I left off. Today - - I learned/read more about HTTP/2. - I learned/read about protobuf a bit, and generated some go code using a .proto file.

Day 96 of #100DaysOfCode. I've decided to learn about gRPC which I left earlier in the challenge. I will be building a small server application that takes in a service schedule and stores it somewhere. Started it.

Day 95 of #100DaysOfCode. The earlier bug fix didn't quite solve the problem. Made some changes and resubmitted it for review 😬

Day 94 of #100DaysOfCode. Completed the fix, I was working on. But it's just embarrassing it's just a one-word change and still, I'm sure if the fix would get accepted xD github.com/techrail/groun…

Day 93 of #100DayOfCode. Still working on the same bug, it's frustrating and entertaining at the same time that I'm spending this much amount of time on a fix that would just account for a couple of lines of changes.

Day 92 of #100DayOfCode. I'm working on an open-source programming task and thought I had fixed a bug, but it turned out I misinterpreted it. Instead of deleting a duplicate value, the system needed to distinguish between them. Ouch!

Day 91 of #100DayOfCode. Put a close bit-client project and start with an open-source issue that I had picked up from a go community, I'll add more details tomorrow. The code seems humongous though. 😬

Day 90 of #100DayOfCode. Completed the bit-client. Now it's able to download files from torrent files! Please don't judge the code though it needs a lot of refactoring. 😁 github.com/itishrishikesh…
