Hike ❤️
🚨 Hike Messenger achieved over 100 million users before shutting down in January 2021. It is the closest an Indian company has gone against the might of WhatsApp.

I rewatch Breaking Bad every few months. That’s how much I love this show, and now it’s going to be difficult for me to watch it again

Journalists are turning into Dev Advocates, Here’s my prediction: Companies will start laying off actual developers and hiring famous faces instead. This is what management has always wanted. They’ve always hated having to pay actual developers

first they let enough slop onto the App Store, and now they’re removing every account they can

Apparently, the USA and China are the biggest user bases for my open-source libraries, even more than India. India has only around 2k events, compared to nearly 1 lakh from the USA.

Big companies are allergic to actual engineers. That’s why people with “Open Source” positions in their profiles often have one talk at some random conference and zero actual contributions to open source

Yeah, because they want to pay peanuts, treat salaries like they’re doing employees a favour, act bossy and arrogant all day, and still expect top talent. That’s why they’re always hiring.
India does not have an unemployment problem. India has a mediocrity problem. Every founder I know is always hiring. Always. There is not a single business owner in my circle who is not actively looking for good people right now. What they are frustrated with is not a lack of candidates. It is mediocre applications. Mediocre interviews. Mediocre work. The jobs exist. The standards to get them are not being met. That is a very different problem. And it needs a very different conversation.

So I was in the market today and... get a life go out and do something. Don’t read made-up stories on Twitter, it won’t change anything in your life.

I called him out for some open-source challenges he was putting up for fixes that he kept rejecting, calling people’s work “slop.” Why can’t he explain properly what he expected? And he blocked me because I criticised him
In 2021 I invested 1000 USD in @gumroad through Republic crowd funding. No update so far. Few years back I had sent a message to @shl asking for an update. 1/4

This was a beautiful play all the stages of Ishq, from Uns (attraction/affection) → Ulfat (attachment) → Ishq (intense love) → Aqidat (devotion) → Ibadat (worship) → Junoon (madness) → Maut/Fanaa (annihilation of the self). explained through the life of Farishta as a human.
