Timeline
An unfiltered chronicle of the randomest thoughts that (don't really) demand public attention. It's like Twitter, but without restrictions or moderation.
My primary weakness is around structured thought. I envy people who can write their thoughts in a consumable manner as they brainstorm. Having tried all the popular tools out there, I still can't think in a way that is structured enough that I can record my ideas productively. Everything seems to just slow me down. Maybe the slowdown is worth it.
Reading comments on LinkedIn is a crash-course on how to say the most obvious things in the most enthusiastic way.
The GenZ obsession with Nike sneakers is quite interesting.
I'd love to talk to the person who owns SEO at LinkedIn. It blows my mind how often I find myself on LinkedIn now, all thanks to Google always putting LinkedIn profiles at the top of my search results.
I don't quite understand people who have top notes of rum or whiskey in their perfumes. Like what exactly are you trying to achieve smelling drenched in Whiskey Sour at the gym?
I'm given a Macbook M3 by my new company. This computer is fuckin slick TBH. Still figuring out how Alt+Tab works tho (yeah CMD + Tab). Also figuring out the automagical transitions that happen outta nowhere while using the trackpad. Sticking to the terminal as much as possible though -- don't want to get into drag-dropping things into Applications folder. Installed docker desktop, and I feel unnecessarily weird about starting and stopping containers from the UI. Definitely sensing some bitterness after ending the 12yo relationship with Linux/Ubuntu.
After a 7 year journey at Hasura, I joined Zamp today. Super thrilled to be solving unsolved fintech problems with an extremely talented and energetic team. New challenges, new tech, new people, new vibes. Hard to explain the ongoing adrenaline games.
I think it is just evil of banks to cold-call people repeatedly to inform their about their loan eligibility.
I think people overdo and overthink fitness, more times than not. Eat right, sleep right and exercise daily. Repeat for 1 year straight and then come to me for a personalized plan if it doesn't work.
Starting with an unpopular opinion: A data-structures-and-algorithms round is an extremely important interview stage in software engineering, especially if you haven't worked with the engineer before.
