Most people struggle with DSA because they’re learning algorithms backwards.
They memorize the solution before understanding the problem that made the algorithm necessary.
And then wonder why they go blank when a question changes slightly.
The real unlock is first-principles thinking.
Once you understand why an algorithm works, you can start deriving solutions instead of recalling them.
Patterns stop looking like 500 unrelated tricks. Hard problems become variations of ideas you already understand.
That's how you build actual problem-solving intuition.
@thita_ai Algorithms from First Principles playlist teaches DSA exactly this way.
Wish someone had made this when I was learning to code.

funerals are huge money with zero tech and zero taste
wild bet, love it
i asked chatgpt how to plan a funeral.
it said to call a few funeral homes and ask for price lists. makes sense when only 18% of them post prices online, it had nothing to show me.
every other industry figured out online shopping 20 years ago. this one still runs on phone calls.
so 8 in 10 families call one place and say yes to an $8k decision, sometimes from a hospital hallway.
why are we fine with that?
