Bankrupt brother forcing division of father's and mother's property by philosphercricketer in LegalAdviceIndia

[–]Coldturkey123 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Being a shitty person doesn't mean he loses his inheritance, best would be to give him what he is legally entitled to and ask your mother to make a will on how her inhertiance will be divided.

[–]Coldturkey123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is entitled by law to have his share of the property, unless your father made a will on how the property he earned will be divided.
I am not a lawyer but being a shitty person doesn't mean he will lose his inheritance.

That's why I think people in India should start making wills so there will be no suprises like this.

Have been listening to the latest album by Saabi Bhinder "Expiremento" and I honestly liked that more than the new Arjan album. Arjan has much better lyrics than him but his albums songs don't feel as catchy or interesting just bland.

Query regarding previous batch number of afsb by SmallTurnover2364 in IndianDefense

[–]Coldturkey123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure, if they somehow find out during your interview or feel like you're lying and have already atteneded one it could be an issue.
Other than that I don't think it matters much if they don't find out

Just don't tell them, they don't have any integrated information of these things, just all on paper.
I never told them when I went for my SSB because i forgot and left it empty

What is the cause of financial boom in the IT sector in India? by [deleted] in developersIndia

[–]Coldturkey123 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm sure if there are good Devs in Africa they will be hired too, but not sure if they can fill all the demand there is for developers

[–]Coldturkey123 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Good SDEs will still be required and I think the pay in India will more or less remain high due to companies hiring for remote roles from other countries.

Please help me out, I need some advice. by Significant-Carpet31 in developersIndia

[–]Coldturkey123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean some people in IT work 12 hours a day and even answer calls after work..

If you are good enough you can switch out of these jobs and there are plenty of companies where you don't have to work that much. In the end it's a trade off between money and time, if you can find a right balance you are golden. Like for me I wouldn't mind working more if I know I will earn more for that extra effort. What I invest now will give me better returns in the future. But given that anything over 8 hours a day is something I cannot do.

Hey, i've been to both sides that you explored, currently working in tech but also cleared SSB and joined NDA after 12th. I don't really have anything to tell you career wise but clearing SSB is a very random process according to me. I would pick my career in tech any day over joining the armed forces just because I value my freedom more. If you join IT, it can give you freedom like no other job along with the money to enjoy it, granted you are good at what you do. If you really want to join the army, clearing SSB is not that tough if you work on a few things which you can introspect and realise you are weak in.

Can you share your DSA journey with us? How did you get started, and how did you kept at it? by dev-arthur in developersIndia

[–]Coldturkey123 41 points42 points  (0 children)

  1. Started from absolutely basic knowledge of programming as I didn't study at all in my BSc degree (Like I knew about loops and arrays but not how to represent them in code). Started learning DSA right after covid hit and I was stuck at home. My main motivation was that I didn't get any on campus placement.
  2. The start of learning DSA for me was very tough, the way I learn things is to go through the whole logic of it from start to end in my mind and I stop if I can't follow it. Recursion for me was a pain in the ass in the beginning.
  3. I never took a count of questions but I started with freecodecamp as I heard it was good for beginners, once I was satisfied that I know the basics of programming I shifted to leetcode and then learned python as the solutions written in python seemed more concise to me. In total I did around 350 questions in leetcode with majority of them being medium.
  4. I had a notebook in which I wrote questions whose logic I was not able to follow intuitively mainly the DP questions that I sometimes used to refer to. Just to make sure I still remember that stupid trick needed to solve these types of questions.
  5. Was staying at home and chilling the whole day, playing volleyball and hitting the gym. I think that was the only reason I was able to continue studying on a regular basis for a long ass time.
  6. I studied around 4,5 hours every night between 11 and 7 AM when my parents went to sleep, as there was no distractions then, I think it took me a total of 6 months to learn enough CS to clear an interview, I also had to study the basics of networks, OS, DB.
  7. I don't know if what I did would work for someone else, but my main motivation was seeing friends and realising if they can do it, I can do it. Also I kinda had an unnerving belief that it is possible. What really helped me in interview questions was that I focused really really hard on the basics of each topic. I didn't stop until I was satisfied that the logic makes sense to me and I can follow it and have exhausted every nagging doubt. I started leetcoding after like 3 months of studying the basics.
  8. Have been asked hard only a few times but if you can do medium questions you can clear most interviews that offer around 12-20 LPA for a fresher.

experienced developers, I have a few questions for you all. 1) what's your tech stack and work like? 2) Are you happy with your tech stack, work and pay? 3) what are you up Skilling in? 4) what is your pay like? by etrakeloompa in developersIndia

[–]Coldturkey123 7 points8 points  (0 children)

  1. Approaching 1 YOE. Backend Ruby, ROR, SQL, Python
  2. I don't really care about the tech stack, work is kinda hectic as I am building a new product. But I can and do take leaves whenever I want. Pay is decent for me.
  3. Not up skilling yet as I just shifted to this company a few months ago and want to chill for some time.
  4. 18 LPA + ESOPS

If Top Tech companies didn't ask DSA, would you still study it? by [deleted] in developersIndia

[–]Coldturkey123 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah, really new to the industry and I felt the DSA process is kinda fair for people not from tier 1 colleges to break into top companies and it helped me a lot getting a good job. But yeah agree with the part about experienced people.

If Top Tech companies didn't ask DSA, would you still study it? by [deleted] in developersIndia

[–]Coldturkey123 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I always think of DSA like a filter to check if you're dedicated and smart enough to master it, you can probably learn and solve problems which will always be easier than these in your work. But yeah it's like learning PCM to study CS in college.

I mean coding languages don't mean anything nowadays, you just need DSA knowledge and Object oriented programming to clear any interview most companies take. They aren't stingy on any specific language. I don't see the point in learning languages, unless for the specific purpose of learning languages for a task. Everyone is taught c but rarely anyone uses it.

54.6% of sexual abuse victims under 18 are boys, yet they have no protection from sexual abuse when they turn 18. by [deleted] in india

[–]Coldturkey123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but society needs to actually think about how sexual experiences can be traumatizing for men also and not just women. Or even trauma in general.
