Is it only competitive programming❌

What it needs actuallly

Skills✅

connections✅

Hardwork and commitment✅

Even if you failed go get into iit and even if you manage a good eamcet college you can get into Jane street or Quants.So people who didn’t get into top iit don’t lose hope try your best and everything will go ahead. Nothing is impossible in life even 12 fail has Manoj Kumar became upsc which is way tougher than getting into Jane street so anything is possible if you keep working hard. Thank you and all the best.

Tl;dr my mental health is beyond messed up right now, I will not be ranting about it or talking about it to anyone in particular.

Instagram is painful, you watch all your friends having fun with their new found friends , having the time of their lives , apparently every day.

Meanwhile im almost in the grave each night wishing that I can smile like them .

Cut fingers cause I was playing the guitar for hours, without noticing the pain.

Physically present

Mentally absent .

Good rant.

Have a good day!

So I'm an intern at a healthcare firm based in us, with all their tech services in india.

The culture is amazing, people are kind af, feedback is always positive. But our team is probably the one that works the most.

I sit(stand) in a corner of one of the floors in the building, face to face with my manager (he's so cool) .

My team is around me, a few desks away.

Im.a beginner guitarist (5months), and I decided to get my guitar, to play it in the karaoke room we have. (Cause friday).

My teammate was about to leave tho, so she asked if we could play it in a meeting room. (The one we went into, had a 5 capacity)

I start playing (I think im trash, but she thought I was an expert) , and my teammates start walking in one by one, and my manager joins us, and the nearby team friends I made joined too.

I dont know many hindi songs, so I was looking up the chords on the fly and playing . We played illahi, arz Kiya hai, and like 8 more songs.

I was singing and playing Sailor Song when my manager walked in.

Everyone was singing along to the hindi songs, and it was such a good activity.

And illahi sounded sooo good.

The meeting room for 5 was filled with 15 people all karaoking with me playing the guitaa

(P.s. im dying of anxiety cause bro im self taught, and ive been playing for js 5 months)

They get clips, and it was a good day.

The thing is, half the pillar (like the groups of teams ? Ours has 350+ employees in the pillar) was able to hear the sound leaking out.

It was a gooooood jamming session :)

Will get the guitar every Friday!

Its exploitation, but I have a way out for you.

tldr: spend 60-80% gathering requirements, testing and validating. 10% coding, and 10% for anything that might need your immediate attention.

Never build first.

As a fellow intern building solo features again and again, I always first build my architecture. I spend 80% of the time gathering what exactly they want, and designing what exactly ill do.

Maybe you dont wanna design classes and objects (low level), then at lest get a gist of the flows, the endpoints you gotta add, the ui (I have good intuition, so I usually make great ui) .

Sit with random senior employees if you dont have a mentor. Or find the critics . Get your plan roasted, and then change it, and then start.

Coding - use context files, plan files. Use ponytail and caveman to save tokens and get faster results .

My cycle for a usual 8 day task (1 sprint)

Day 1-3 planning and architecting , and approvals , while getting the context and tiny features implemented

Day 3-6 building and annoying the seniors

Ill build stuff, and then ill test, and ill go annoy the senior and ask them if I require - say a different endpoint or data processing format and what not.

Day 6-9 testing and pr review, approvals

And last minute changes

So guys and girls and homies....

My life was in a really really bad spot, mentally.

Too much pressure, nothing felt rewarding.

None of my irl friends bothered replying to me.

They sent a 100 reels on insta, I replied to every single one of them.

I send them a pic (i like photography) , or a recording of a song , or a text, and I get nothing.

So my expectations got crushed, and I deleted all social media.

For 21 days, I got no messages,

And I developed a habit,

Never replying on time , or never replying at all.

I dont wanna go back , but I feel bad for those who actually text me.

Before I begin,

​

Reddit is the only social media platform i use.

No Instagram, no X, no Snapchat.

​

​

Time flies, and everyone i see is scrolling. There's a false sense of "personal space" when they scroll. No one looks at each other anymore, no more fun conversations with strangers.

Every convo feels like theyre shooting me at gunpoint.

Sucks to be an extrovert .

​

​

My besties, who always hung out around me, now just post stuff on insta. No dms (reels dont count), no calls.

Just their flashy stories, curated for their fake followers.

Who happen to be simps mostly.

​

Its like they go to places or hangout just to post stories saying how "happy" they are, pretending to care about everyone.

And when I see them irl, they look at me with disgust, while looking exhausted and sad.

​

​

Im not a part of any group or intern gang.

Im beyond lonely (im an extrovert, I survive around people, being alone is hell for me).

What hurt me more was when a friend showed me a story of every single one of those fake best friends hanging out together on my birthday, pretending I didnt exist, when I genuinely was going through self-harm and darker thoughts.

​

​

The world sucks, people.

Get off your phones.

Touch grass.

​

Is what everyone says, and the next second they post on insta about touching grass.

​

21 years of living

Not a single date

Nothing brings me joy.

So I learn, learn , learn till I die.

I have:

1 best friend who texts me rarely

Colleagues who pretend to be friends.

2 online friends who text once a day like a check in

people who like:

​

​

Her's (a band) , Cigarettes After S\*x , TV Girl, Gracie Abrams, photography walks, random late-night conversations, ambient music, Minecraft music, tea, guitar music, learning, talking, listening, staring at the sky.

​

​

I'm 21, let's have a Convo , shall we?

I'm a weird kid.

Never dated.

I have a genuine selfless love for everyone.

​

​

I want to hangout with someone who loves the same things i do, the same music taste i have:

​

people who like Hers(band), Cigarettes After S*x, TV Girl, Justin Beiber, Radiohead, the weekend, Billie Eilish, Gracie Abrams.... and more

​

I wanna be 100% open with you, dont wanna show you my fake smile. I want to feel safe, and cry on your shoulder when you hug me.

Make me feel safe.

​

Life is really really hard.

​

I want to go to

photography walks at sunset ,

late-night conversations,

Parks at sunset,

Cafe(s) (I rarely go),

Libraries,

Malls.

​

​

Ill play the guitar for you,

Ill teach you anything

Pictures, coding, music, technology.

​

​

Just be there...

At nights, when it gets hard.

​

So I can stay strong, wishing to live another day.

​

​

​

​

Hey yall,

Ive been using motioncam on my s22u for quite a while, although in direct log video mode mostly.

​

​

I will probably use the same in the future, but my s22u is almost at its end (the charging port is damaged, a few glass cracks, and network antenna damaged) .

​

I will get a flagship if im getting one.

​

I love shooting using 69mm & 230mm on my s22u

(3x and 10x)

​

What are your suggestions ?

​

Oppo find x9 ultra?

Xiaomi 17 ultra?

Vivo x300 ultra?

One plus 15?

What did I miss?

S26 nahhh bad phone imo.

(Older ultras like x200u are fine too)

​

I heard motioncam is coming to iphone.

Is it gonna be better ? (I hope not, please)

Anyone who works / interns around nexity, lets meet up and have a chat together? Im down to meet up at a cafe, or just walk aimlessly as we speak.

Im available after work, and we can hangout for a while.

Hi I'm Gabi, im a Catholic, 21 M .

I'd rather meet someone physically, than talk online only to be ghosted .

Im not interesting .

Just another person who's too kind and fed up living with fake friends.

Heck I don't even have an Instagram account now.

Music is what keeps me alive.

Im a software dev (intern) at a us-based Healthcare firm .
