You can use strings as annotation in python. I used to import the type from the typing library when annotating but this kinda simplifies the process

I tried to use Clean Architecture on my latest project (spoiler alert... its not on the playstore - yet😉) and it was hilarious. Nit the fact that I tried to use it tho, its the fact that I even think about using it. Here's why

1. My project was not 'that big' to make me use uncle bob's design pattern. I mean will I ever be using it for my personal projects? (NO! Not happening)

2. What was the second one 🤔... I forgot

3. Oh I remember it was only the first one 😁

But seriously. Clean architecture is beautiful. But I think its a pattern that you use it with team. (On a project with a LOT of different features.)

Hey guys good news :)

Better Auth has been accepted into Y Combinator's Spring 2025 batch (X25)! 🎉

Myself and @kinfishfarms, will be part of YC's first spring batch. Super excited and thanks everyone here for being part of my journey so far :)) but a lot more to come!

I think the whole thread is a good read.
specifically this comment


TL;DR
Build it and Users will come is the biggest lie.
instead,

1. Validate if there's demand
2. Manually find 10 early participants and fine tune your MVP with them
3. Marketing & SEO
4. They'll come

This guy built an AI-powered interview cheating web app, and even FAANG companies couldn’t catch it! He went viral, but then Columbia University kicked him out—not for the app, but for leaking confidential files online.

Now, he’s still active on social media, and he’s made it clear—he’s not going back to college!

Yeah, I just realized something—people who document their journey tend to get more attention and success than those who just show the end result. I think it's because we admire characters more for their struggles than their achievements. The average person relates more to failure and struggle than to success. So, sharing the process—wins, losses, and everything in between—makes people appreciate what you do even more. It’s not just about the final project; it’s about the story behind it.

Hello everybody remember me talking about joining A2SV. well they had new announcement a week and 4 days ago. I should have posted about that here but I don't know why I didn't. I applied and got interviewed 2 days ago. The session started with the technical interview where I was given a problem along with 45 minutes to solve it. I guess I solved it but it took me the whole 45 minutes. The problem was a bit tricky but once you get it, it was an easy problem. The second session was a behavioral interview where I was asked about myself, my goals, what I know about A2SV and stuff like that. anyway I'm waiting for the result and I will let you know when I get their email.

Here's some advice coming from a place of love

Stop asking good developers/ channel owners/ senior's "what should I learn"

That should be a choice you make on your own based on what you want, what you are aiming for and other things

You wouldn't go to a dating coach and ask what kind of person should i want

You ask them "i want this person, how do I get them"

Decide your path, what you want to learn, then ask for help on how to learn that thing instead.

After taking some time to solve Blind75, I stopped. Here's why

I believe the problems are for those who are preparing for an interview ahead because they don't have enough time to solve hundreds of problems in a short time. Not for learning to solve problems.

So I was looking for a structured way of learning and I got some resource from which I started learning. The files might be confidential to share but am working on something that will help others learn problem solving.

Got the problem I was asked on the interview.
It was a premium medium-tagged problem on leetcode. here's the link

Just started using google calendar to manage my time.

I think knowing everything on our table is very challenging if we do it by ourselves. Having someone (or something) that reminds us to do our tasks is very good if we can stick to that.

What did you guys order from Ali express? (or others)

I need recommendations for first time deal 😊
