we’re building @fermionapp 💛 here’s a small video - ep01 on building Fermion, a world-class tool for tech creators if you’re a technical instructor, i wanna hear from you rtwt & share this video if you like it ✧

manufactured issues in this country: - speak kannada in karnataka - speak marathi in maharashtra real threats in this country: - a bridge collapsing on a regular day - a rich, drunk kid crashing into you with his car

My current startup does about 1000 requests per second on backend (a few billion requests per month) In today's video, we go from 1 RPS all the way to 1,000,000 RPS and some core decisions that are taken at every 10x growth scale. Trying something new, I think you'd like it.

This is a the quickest way to get blocked forever. I really don’t have time to address this every time but I will do it once here. AI is THE current thing and a lot of things are happening in the space. I mix a lot of my content with knowledge and AI updates, and this gives me a chance to work with brands who want to position themselves in videos. Some loud people have problems if ANYONE except them makes a single dollar online, god forbid. You’ll trash people who sell courses, trash people who keep content free for you all but then get companies to pay. Grow up. This is not a zero sum game. You get to know something new, a deserving company gets new users, I get to make $ making the introduction. What makes you sorry about it? Why this mindset?

A 1 crore earning techie's life has no value in Bengaluru. And if you're not earning that much? Your life has even less. My sister and her friend were driving home in my car. They stopped at a red light - the logical thing anyone does. A drunk driver in a mini-truck didn't feel the need to stop. He slammed into them instead. I know he was drunk. She knows it. The highway police knows it. The truck owner knows it. No arrest was made. The truck driver never showed up at the station. The owner never showed up. Nobody cared. My sister and her friend - both injured, both terrified - kept going back to the station, back to the accident site, explaining what happened over and over, just trying to get a report filed. I was in the US. All I could do was talk to them on calls, helpless. Here's what the police told them: "If nobody died, an FIR doesn't make sense." "Just claim first party insurance." "Third party insurance doesn't pay much anyway." And then, quietly, one officer pulled them aside and told the truth: "These truck mafia bribe us. Nothing will happen." Nothing happened. The truck was KA04 AE6550. The police themselves said if they'd been on a two-wheeler, both would be dead. We had 100% insurance from Reliance. Claim rejected. Reason? "Misrepresentation of facts." These two, even while injured, kept showing up to represent the facts. Reliance still found a way to deny them. The law says if someone hits you from behind, the person behind is at fault. It was a red light. How does a truck driver not see that? Trust me, this isn't about money. I'll manage the repairs and the medical bills. I have savings. And I have a decent credit score; I'll take a personal loan if I have to. That's not the point. The point is this: my sister is afraid now. Afraid that anything can happen to her at any moment and there's no one - no system, no law, no institution - that will protect her. But how do I tell her the world is supposed to be fair? How do I tell her to trust the system? How do I explain that the drunk driver walks free, the truck owner was never questioned, and the police pocketed their bribe and closed the file? I can't say to any official, "What if this was your daughter? Your sister?" Because their daughters travel in cars with security escorts. They will never know what it feels like to be ordinary and unprotected. So I'm saying it to you, an ordinary reader. You're on the road. You stop at a red light. A drunk driver in a truck rear-ends your car. Your loved one is inside, terrified. And then you learn: there is no recourse. None. The truck owner pays off the cops. The insurance company rejects your claim. The system shrugs. This is Bengaluru in 2025. This is India in 2025. This is what your life is worth here. One more thing. The friend in the car? He's one of the smartest people I know. close to top 100 rank in IIT-JEE. AI engineer and one of the biggest data companies. At 23, he is valuable to be paid more annually than the cost of five such trucks, that too, in India. He's patriotic. He pays his taxes. He stays in India even though he constantly gets offers to move to the US. This is the confidence our system gives to someone who is clearly an asset to this country. All this unfairness - for a drunk truck driver. @blrcitytraffic @BlrCityPolice - tell me. I've always avoided raising fingers publicly. But what else can I do?

@rudrank Oh that’s super. Took me roughly ~5-6 days + I wasn’t physically present for my visa process at the embassy

@vishtwts How many days did it take? I saw they have made the application part online now which is cool

Friends from India: Anyone recently applied for the tourist visa for China? I saw it is easier now + Air India direct flights from next month

@IshikaKesarwan4 🥰🥰

@vishtwts Proud!!! 🥰

@theramgoel @mehulmpt @fermionapp Can self-attest that this is me and my audio only in the video. No AI was hurt in editing 😅

@mehulmpt @fermionapp @vishtwts Something is generated in this audio using AI, either audio or video. I'm 100% sure.

Introducing Fermion - the most powerful way to run your online education business. As a past ed-tech startup, the biggest mistake we made was spending too much time building technology, rather than focusing on our unique strengths and user outcomes. @fermionapp changes that.
