wtf is this open box delivery with Amazon India. For an item of Rs.2000, they want someone to be at home to open the box while the delivery person takes pictures and validates an OTP. AND they charge money for this "service" and you can't opt out of it. Very kafkaesque. A Rs. 60k item, otoh, was delivered without an OTP last week.
Nothing sucks worse than crossing the finish line and realizing you ran the wrong race.
My SWE interview for a company that paid £4500/year: “Prove that push_back() in std::vector works in O(1)” “Design a Java RTTI system with minimal overhead per object” My SWE interview for a company that paid £250000/year: “Remove the minimum number of parentheses to make a valid parentheses sequence”
10 years at faang means you are a great faang engineer and basically useless anywhere that doesn’t hold your hand end to end
If you're from a poor background, I don't know how to explain, but when you land your first international remote job. Don't tell anyone in your family. Even mum & Dad. Just act like you earn 50k. You're not ready for family responsibilities. I repeat you're not ready for it.
fuck those parents. why don’t all these grown “children” take a stance for them now that they’re “grown”? if you love your parents, you need to stop listening to their obsolete opinions and find your own path, otherwise your life will be full of regret and resentment. I speak this from personal experience. everyone who knows my father fears him, but I chose to stand up for myself. when I was 17-18, I told him that I would live my life on my own terms. told my mother the same. they didn’t appreciate it and call me “selfish”, etc… but stopped interfering with my life. I retired them within a year or two. now they’re happy and proud of me. my father and I still have some differences, but I’ve managed my family’s expenses since I was 18-19, so he also understands that I’m responsible. my parents now advise their friends to give their kids more freedom instead of binding them in the cage of “obedience”. as I always say, it’s always easy to complain and blame others, but the wise choice is to take extreme responsibility of everything and follow your heart.
Indian parents failed in providing a safe space to their children. Most of the children who are even in their twenties, fear telling everything to their parents. wether they want to talk about a girl/boy or they want to tell them that they want to run a business or peruse a different career or whatsoever Majority of the children can’t talk to their parents without any fear And then those parents say that you don’t talk to us because whenever their children wanted to talk, all they did was either taunt them or scold them about something
After all this, infosys😭
