You think you're unique until you have to buy a domain for your startup.

Just a friendly reminder: The best technique to keep your daily "Standup" meeting much shorter 😉

I received 60%+ in 10th and 12th grade. I received 71% in B-Tech. I failed in AIEEE & IIT mains. I did B-Tech in a Tier 3 college. People mocked me, but I got a job in an off-campus placement and the rest is history. Failures can't define you!!!

JavaScript Developers 🤩😍

When a programmer wants to start a new blog 😉

This is why I'm not living in India and choose Sweden. let me explain what good day to day quality life is: - Appointments and Punctuality - Appointment is mandatory for any formalities like opening bank account to visiting doctor. - High respect for privacy. - Education- it's free, but the concept of private schools is inexistent. Everyone goes to public school, and public schools here are very good. - my kid walk alone to school I don't have to drop him. - No corruption. No pollution. No guns. - I can drink tap water from anywhere. - Travelling is much more convenient- last weekend I was in Norway and did again a 1500KM road trip. some pics I've added. Infrastructure quality in Scandinavian is 4.9/5 - I’ve never seen this many tunnels in my entire life which I’ve seen in last weekend in Norway. - ferry ports just plug n play like come board and go well planned and designed and most importantly love the fact for all Scandinavian countries that it’s go beautiful to watch how these countries using natural resources so sensibly. - Public Transport, Roads and Traffic rules - Rules are followed strictly and traffic monitoring is completely automated. Vehicles will stop until the pedestrians cross the road even if there is no signal. - Nature- everything here is nature. My children grew up around nature. We hiked up the mountain every other weekend. We went to the farm to buy milk and eggs. We went swimming in the lakes. - Cleanliness - No paan stains, muddy pools of water, dug up roads, overflowing dustbins. Not that I mind them a lot. I can ignore them, but their absence removes a lot of clutter from your mind. You dont feel like littering the place. - Better work life balance - when your manager leaves at 5 and doesn’t want to pick up his laptop, you don’t have to either. Most imp from a female perspective: 1. Freedom - to wear what you want and safety in general 2. Zero society pressure But here is what I miss everyday: - I miss my family. - I miss people vibes. - I miss catching up with so many friends. - I miss street side food and vibes. - I miss last minute plan to go to anywhere in India. If you've money you don't need to think twice to visit any place in India but here you can't as most things are already booked in advance by people in 6 months advance. basically many things which can only happen in India. moreover, the things we take for granted in India are a luxury abroad. so living abroad is a mindset change. there is nobody to support you. You start everything from scratch. You are ready for the challenge. And one goes through this challenge only to provide a better life for themselves and their future generations. last point is once you taste this good daily life so giving away a "this life" is hard and every day it creates a gap between you and India so only way to fill this gap This is what I'm doing: - Closed my LLP in Sweden and Open a private ltd in India for my small business. - Building all my small bets keeping in mind that once I get the "RED" passport I'm free to live in both countries. - Travelling min 3-4 times a year to India, Instead to saving money and visiting local in EU. - Focusing on health instead of chasing average mindset people. at present living in present life and not thinking much about where to retire but yes back of my mind and a long term plan is to have a passport which gives me freedom to live wherever I want so kinda I choose this. "Grass is greener on the other side.". I'm glad I got to experience a bit what it's like to live in Europe, and US. The people, culture, food, lifestyle are drastically different in WEST. I'm glad I saw it, but it's hard for me to embrace and live forever with. Do what works for you. - Many of my tech friends in India want to move to the USA, EU or in West. - Many of my NRI friends want to move back to India. Distance drums sound well 😉 Namaste, Thank you. AMA if you've any questions.

Junior Dev: Can we connect on a quick Zoom call so I can walk you through it? Senior Dev:

I'm busy building my cool website😉

Indians don’t need therapy. we need a ticket to Europe for 7 days. That’s all it takes to realize how badly we’ve been scammed by our own government. Clean streets, bike lanes, working infra, nice walkable footpaths, clean parks, dedicated parking spots meanwhile we’re dodging potholes and corruption like it’s a sport. It’s almost hilarious watching fellow desi step foot abroad for the first time, eyes wide, jaws dropped, suddenly questioning what the hell our government and taxpayers money has been doing all these years. every Indian must travel outside the country at least once. Only then will you realize just how shockingly low our standards daily life we all are living in India. Forget about big things basic things like cleanliness, road safety, cycling lanes, footpaths are missing stuff that should be non-negotiable they just don’t exist back home. We’ve normalized dysfunction. Look at any big cities like Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune, Delhi etc.. forget cycling you can’t walk 🚶 We pay taxes like a developed nation but forced to live like it’s 1930.

Software Engineer life every week😊

I'm really feel disgusted by big tech companies who did layoffs in first half of 2023 and many are now hiring for those same positions while the initial laid off people are still searching for work. Tech is so brutal, it’s a business for them & You’re just a number. Discuss.

Software developers should be hired based on their skills, not their location. For example, a talented developer in India should be paid the same as a developer in the United States.

NRI playbook is dead. you can’t save money like NRIs were doing earlier so don’t come with hope of huge savings instead come for experience, clean air, less pollution, less population, culture and living a different lifestyle and see if this is something you wanted otherwise

Mistakes I made as a software engineer (developer)... A Thread...

If America opens their gates today—90% of Indians working in tech will be moved to America next day. Among Indian techie America is still a dream destination. Being a patriotic person is OK but it doesn’t help you achieve your individual dreams! If you removed 5-10 big metro
