Dear Junior Coders: Stop Chasing Shiny Objects

Focus on mastering foundational programming concepts and timeless technologies rather than constantly learning new frameworks and tools. Core skills like SQL, HTTP, data structures, design patterns, and clean code principles have remained relevant for decades and provide better long-term value than chasing trends. Soft skills like collaboration, negotiation, and persuasion are equally important for career growth. Energy is finite, so concentrate efforts on going deep into fewer essential topics rather than spreading attention across many surface-level subjects

Learn RabbitMQ for Event-Driven Architecture (EDA)

part 2 will continue tomorrow

Quick Poll Backend Engineering Program

I’m planning a 12-week LIVE Server-Side Engineering program
for Software Engineering students (2nd year and above).


Focus areas:

Event-driven architectures, microservices and service-to-service communication, distributed systems fundamentals, authentication and authorization (JWT, RBAC), API gateways and backend orchestration, data modeling and transactional systems, asynchronous processing, and backend components behind large-scale platforms.

Limited seats, experienced instructors, and guest engineers from big/global tech companies.


Would you join if this launches?

Good afternoon, my fellows. 😊

I’ve received 100+ YES votes for the Backend Engineering program thank you for the strong interest.❤️🔥🔥🔥

Because this is a live, mentor-led program, seats will be strictly limited to keep the quality high.

Next step: I’ll be sharing a short application form to select a focused and committed cohort.

Please note: this will not be first-come, first-served.

More details soon.👇👇👇👇

Applications are now OPEN — Backend Engineering Program

After receiving 150+ YES votes, I’m opening applications for a limited-seat, live backend engineering cohort.

This is a selection-based program, not open enrollment.

Apply only if you are serious about:

understanding how backend systems really work

building production-grade systems

committing live session 3 days a week for 12 weeks
