Pro tip: If the LLM generates code that you cannot understand, it means you need to upskill. Use AI to explain what was generated and provide more resources to help you keep up with the model. Being able to review the code that AI generates will become a mandatory requirement for software engineers.

read code. no matter what. accountability is still yours. optimizing for speed while risking correctness is stupidity.

It's sad that we promote and encourage complexity in the tech industry
I'd love to see more of a push towards simple solutions to problems

People start with 3 LPA and reach 30.
People start with sharing a room in an apartment to living alone in a 2bhk.
People start with nominal English sentences to being fluent.
People start with being camera shy to being great creators.
People start with ordering food online with coupons from various sites and then.. well that doesn’t change.
But see how easy it is to think when it is a journey and not constantly running behind a FAANG tag or 50LPA job.
The important part is starting.
30 secs plank to 2 mins.
2kgs to 20.
Start today.
