this is sad

hi, i’m Fili.

22 y/o developer from Ethiopia.

started coding at 19.

at 20, I realized AI can code.

started vibe coding and sharing tips (grew to 3K followers)

at 21, went to India for internship and attended YC startup school

at 22, I released my tool: gitreverse.

It became viral: 200K+ visitors, 5M+ views across socials.

now, looking to create a community. more to come soon.

Hi everyone! This is Melekete (መልዕክተ) Paulos.
tired of being called መለከት (🎺) 😁, which is actually a musical instrument.

Anyway, I'm an Electrical and Computer Engineering student at AAU, and I've wanted to start this channel for a long time. Now, here we are.

Here, I'll share my coding projects, things I'm learning, opportunities I come across, my thoughts, random life moments, and everything in between.

I don't have everything figured out, I’m learning along the way.

Welcome to my journey. Let's see where it takes us.

check her out she is my classmate,

Now back to me after a lot of misses again and many shares

Today’s topic is Imposter Syndrome, something that has been haunting me this summer. I recently started doing Codeforces and really diving into more on backend development. Some concepts were so tough to grasp that I would overthink, convince myself this path didn't suit me, and eventually stop learning.

Then, a few days later, I’d get a burst of motivation, and the cycle would repeat itself. Every time I hit a wall with coding, it would mess up other things I was doing because I felt entirely incapable.

But here is what I’ve actually learned: encountering difficult concepts isn't a sign that you should quit—it’s proof that you are learning something new. It might take days to grasp a new topic, and that is completely okay as long as you stay consistent. Gradually, it sticks in your brain, and what once felt impossible starts to feel easy.

That’s why I highly recommend not backing down when you face a challenge. Just breathe, take your time with it, and keep going.

Lemme share you project I was doing while I was gone,I built V1.0 of my portfolio it took me two months to make it, As I am writing this, I am thinking of new things to add to it to make it cleaner and creative,

I would like you to make honest review on it, I prompted background to make up for my hobbies and what I interested in.

It’s crazy how fast time flies. I have been on Telegram for almost six years, and I still remember how much our teachers hated it. They would tell our parents to ban it, and you could actually get punished for using it. Then the pandemic happened, and ironically, they made it a mandatory tool for all our schoolwork and that when I created this account. I really hated that time.

Time to deep work before sleep

finally 🫠, it is my first time using this app and it is really good like exactly what I had wanted Notion , Obsidian , and Google tasks to do.

መልካም ሰንበት ቤተሰብ !
