I've come to the conclusion I don't have it takes to be a SWE in todays world. I'm very convinced I am getting kicked out of the SWE industry 1. I'm a slow learner and forgetful.

Whatsapp was handling billion messages(infact more I assume) on new year eve with 55 engineers and that was before Facebook acquiring them.

After a few years in this business, I have to admit that although I love programming, I want to stay as far away from business side as possible, as long as I can still code. Yes I know it's the business side that feds us and gives me the job. I know staying too far from business will endanger emplo...Read more

Starting at Google soon and have to pick my equipment. The on boarding guide strongly pushes me to pick the Google Pixelbook, but I’m hesitant to pick that one for a few reasons: 1. Everyone else on the team I’m joining uses Mac or Windows, and I know how sometimes it’s a pain to ramp people up wh...Read more
