While you were learning Python 3, the entire industry quietly switched to AI-native development.

80% of the code being written in 2026 isn't being typed it's being directed . The developers still manually writing CRUD apps and basic scripts aren't 'purists.' They're being automated out.

If your workflow doesn't include: • AI agents in your IDE • Prompt engineering as a core skill • Autonomous debugging & testing loops
...you're not 'taking your time.' You're already 2 years behind.

The gap isn't closing. It's widening every quarter.

Things that will crash you when you start in tech are unrealistic expectations. A lot of people expect to get paid huge money immediately because they are good at coding, got great grades, or finished courses. The market does not work like that right now. The tech industry is very hard to break into. Skills matter, but connections matter just as much. The biggest gold mine in this field is the people you meet. Take every opportunity seriously, small tasks, internships, helping on projects, networking, collaborations, and community work. Do not underestimate any of them. Opportunities stack on top of each other. One project leads to another. One connection introduces you to someone else. Over time, that momentum changes your life. Know your value and improve your skills constantly, but do not let opportunities pass you because your expectations are disconnected from reality.

They say life gets to a point where it's so beautiful and good your don't want to go asleep and wake up every day eager

I manifest that for each and everyone of you here

We’re always told to upskill, but what happens when you try to install every library at once? You end up with a system crash. I call it the curse of being nothing in the process of trying to be everything.

Something to read with your morning coffee before the first commit of the day:

Today I had a meeting with a senior Google developer who has worked there for more than 20 years, both as a permanent employee and freelancer. It was such an amazing experience, and I got a lot of valuable insights from him.

Here are some life principles and lessons I learned:

1. Stay fit and take care of your health. At the end of the day, health matters the most.

2. Focus on building real skills first. Don’t just follow whatever trend the world is chasing. Work on something you truly enjoy, something you can spend hours on like it’s a game. Read books, especially research papers. If you are a junior developer, learn the fundamentals deeply. Use AI wisely to understand things from the ground level.

3. Communication skills are just as important as technical skills. Learn how to explain and present your knowledge. These days, your online presence matters a lot more than just a resume. Build visibility through platforms like GitHub and by sharing your work online.

Also, attend workshops and meetups. But don’t just attend. make sure you connect with at least one person and keep in touch with them.

4. Have a spiritual life. Whether you are religious or not, always try to be good to others. You never know when your kindness will come back to help you.

Another important point was this:
Build projects that solve your own problems or local problems around you. It’s easier to understand problems you personally face. Then think about how those solutions can scale internationally.

And about AI:
Use AI as a mentor, not as something to completely depend on. Learn the basics well and use AI to simplify your learning and productivity.

Finally, being a good developer means being a lifelong learner. Technology changes fast, and you must keep updating yourself. He started learning during the COBOL and FORTRAN era, and he still adapts to modern technologies today. So keep learning, keep building, and prepare yourself for the international market.

Visibility matters. Real projects matter. Continuous learning matters.

DSA Learning Community Update #2 🚀

Application confirmation messages have been sent to all participants via Telegram inbox.

Note: 5 applicants were contacted through email instead, due to invalid or changed Telegram usernames provided during registration.

The starting date may shift again, as many participants reported having final exams during the previously planned timeline.

If you applied and haven’t been contacted yet, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us via: @mscoderr

We can’t wait to start solving problems together and build an amazing learning journey with all of you! 💡🔥

While arranging the teams for the DSA program, one thing really hit me, how much changing a username can actually cost you.

Some applicants had changed their Telegram usernames, so we reached out through email instead. But only a few actually saw the emails and responded.

And honestly, this doesn’t apply only to Telegram usernames. The same goes for emails, portfolio links, GitHub accounts, LinkedIn profiles, and other contact details.

The scary part?
This might not always be about a learning program. It could be a dream job, an internship, a scholarship, or a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

No matter how smart or dedicated you are, small things like these can quietly cost you opportunities you truly deserved.

Sometimes opportunities don’t disappear loudly.
They get lost silently, in an ignored inbox, an outdated link, or at the cost of a changed username.

Eid Mubarak, fam 🌙🤍

May Allah accept our عبادات, sacrifices, duas, and silent struggles.

May this Eid bring peace to our hearts, barakah to our lives, clarity to our minds, and strength to keep becoming better versions of ourselves.

Take time today to be grateful, reconnect with loved ones, forgive, smile, eat well 😄, and remember those who may be celebrating with heavy hearts.

And as always… keep building, keep growing, and keep your purpose bigger than your comfort.


Eid Mubarak to you and your families 🤍

This is such a cool project and exactly what I need this summer; I was even thinking of building one. Thank you, pocodes, for putting in the amazing effort to do this.

Final exams? Done.
Class projects? Done.
Back home? Done.
Rested, refreshed, celebrated Eid… done 😄
I'm officially out of excuses.

I've got around 4–5 months, and InshAllah I plan to use them aggressively and intentionally. Time to lock in and shake the ground a little.

The major focus for this period:
• Learning Full Stack Development
• Grinding LeetCode + DSA
• Reading books
• Understanding myself better — my mind, body, soul, emotions… how they function, interact, and create what's called me.

The goal?
To build enough self-awareness and self-mastery so that everything inside me starts moving in the same direction — toward the life and dreams I want to build.
All of this… alongside an internship 🙂

Of course, I'll be sharing the journey, progress, struggles, lessons, and wins with you guys along the way.

Also… me and Miss Coder are cooking something exciting that will make this journey even more interesting.

If you are someone who is trying to get the best out of this summer, pin this channel, share it with your friend, and stay tuned 🤍

ClearPath 1.0 is officially here ✨

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been building a CBT-inspired reflection app focused on helping people slow down, organize their thoughts, and reflect in a calmer way when life feels overwhelming. With May being Mental Health Awareness Month, I wanted to build something meaningful that could positively impact people, even in small ways.

So, the idea behind ClearPath is simple:

Sometimes you don’t need more noise, bur rather just need a space to pause and process what’s happening.

The app includes:
• guided CBT-style reflection for difficult moments
• mood & energy check-ins
• daily CBT practice exercises
• a personal journal to notice patterns over time
• short learning sections about CBT
• calming themes, quotes, and a gentle interface
• local-first storage for privacy

ClearPath is not meant to be a form of therapy, medical care, diagnosis, or crisis support. It’s meant to be a supportive companion alongside therapy, or simply a personal tool for practicing healthier reflection habits in everyday life.

This is version 1.0, so there’s still a lot I want to improve, but I’m genuinely proud that I saw this project through.

You can check it out here and download the APK (Sorry IOS users😭): https://clearpath-promo.vercel.app/

Would genuinely love feedback from anyone who tries it ❤️

(EDIT: The logo is a placeholder for now, I'm gonna ask someone from the community to create an authentic one soon😂)

For anyone who is having trouble downloading it from the site, here is the apk file.

Don't ever attach yourself to a person, a place, a company, an organization, or a project.
Attach yourself to a mission, a calling, a purpose only.
That's how you keep your power & your peace.

this platform is created by one of the earliest A2SVians who is now a senior software engineer at Google. it's called Habeshans corner. it's aim is sharing opportunities like jobs, scholarships, internships and mentorships in the habesha community around the world. it's just getting started, but it could go on to be something big. join the corner, share it with in your circle.
