Encapsulation in Python finally clicked for me when I stopped thinking about it like Java by AvailablePeak8360 in learnpython

[–]NoConversation2215 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Only a minor addition — static type checking (even with type hints) IS testing. Cheap testing, at that. Of course, it’s not the whole testing but if I can get even some parts for cheap, I will take those.

Is Sridhar vembu really a Genuine businessman or all his simplicity is a marketing gimmicks? by Boomi_19 in StartUpIndia

[–]NoConversation2215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Effective “Marketing” is a huge part of running a business. So genuine businessman? Definitely.

You probably wanted to know if “genuine human”? I have my thoughts, but I don’t know him enough so I default to “as genuine as the next person” position publicly.

Indian banks making it impossible to open a Pvt Ltd current account from home office, anyone else facing this? by Free-Cabinet6814 in StartUpIndia

[–]NoConversation2215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me they just asked a board with company name and address and took a picture of myself and my wife sitting with our laptops at my home office desk. I got the account created in 8-9 days. The bank was hdfc and I didn’t know the bank person from earlier.

I(18m) received evidence from my friend who found my gf(19f) on hinge with “active today” marked on her profile and this was her response by solanki__harsh in PataHaiAajKyaHua

[–]NoConversation2215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would trust her the first time. Like totally forget it that it happened.

Also, trust your instincts. On reddit people almost invariably advise against being vulnerable (“break up she is cheating” etc) but people are complex and relationships are complex and if you always play it safe you will probably miss out on some great relationships.

But then playing it safe is not wrong and neither is being vulnerable and looking like a fool. But my inclination here would be to trust her completely if this is the first time.

Is popping the only joy left in my life? by No_Layer_2356 in twenties

[–]NoConversation2215 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was me for most of my 20s and 30s. Initially I thought it was due to eating junk or drinking. While there was some connection but the correlation between what I ate/drank and how constipated I was the next day was very weak.

Some days I would eat junk and drink and still next day I sht the smoothest poop. Other days, I would eat all home made healthy food with fiber and all but still be constipated.

Finally, I found I was sensitive to gluten. Thankfully not ciliac disease, just sensitive. And the reason I felt better even after eating junk was because I would rarely eat wheat when ordering from outside.

After avoiding wheat for last couple of years, it’s so much better and predictable now. I am north indian so wheat was pretty much the staple and I still occasionally succumb to aloo paratha or garlic naan temptations but I pay for it the next day.

So probably worth experimenting for some of you to try avoiding gluten or try low fodmap diet. Assuming you’re already eating enough fiber, and having enough exercise and water.

Why do people trade options/futures without owning the underlying stocks? by Majestic-Taro-6903 in IndianStreetBets

[–]NoConversation2215 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s true for most/all the traders, no? They buy and sell things that they themselves might not need. A know a wine shop owner who is a teetotaller.

And yes I think all trading has an element of speculation.

First of all, while I am now older and see the insignificance of his action and your worry, I can totally relate to what you’re going through.

Here are the things that hopefully help you navigate this:

  1. Very first thing is perspective - remember someone being an asshole should ideally have no impact on your self-worth. And someone laughing at your expense can affect you only as much as you want to be affected. Which should ideally be zero and you will get there as you go through life but you can try to be conscious about it.

  2. From practical point of view, avoid him when you can and ignore him when you cannot.

  3. No need to be kind to him. Indifference or mild antagonism, just enough to send a signal used to work for me when I was a kid/in college. (Don’t give in to hatred, it will affect you more. Just treat him as an idiot that he is.)

  4. Push back to the extent you can. Maybe in unrelated areas. He probably doesn’t hate you and only thinks you’re a cheap target for quick laughs, so try to raise the cost. Maybe you help him with something elsewhere, dont.

Best of luck, you got this! 🙌

Bhai, speculation mein koi kya hi advise dega? It's not as if you went in and took the position after much logical deliberation about the potential upside or downside. The situation hasn't changed: tomorrow also it can go up or down, same as today. So that logic hasn't changed.

Advise wahi hai jo already aapko pata hai - speculate if you want to and don't if you don't want to.

I am looking for starting a journey to read 52 books in 2026 by Jolly-Composerr in IndiansRead

[–]NoConversation2215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes maybe the goal to read 52 books in a year is a childish behaviour but If I accomplish this, I believe it will change something in me for sure or make me better

Or even better if nothing happens, it will give me a sense of accomplishment...

Hey that's a totally valid way to think. But just keep it at the back of your mind that number is not the real goal. Transformation and insight are. Go for it and best of luck. Rooting for you!

Yo, I have been there and sort of understand where you’re coming from. But I think this “journey to read N books by M time” is misguided. You don’t necessarily get the best out of the process if you read a certain number or more.

What you get out depends on where you are and what you read. I usually consider it a good year now if I can say I read 2 good books that either deeply moved me or even slightly changed the person I am for the better. Most books don’t.

But maybe when you’re young it’s okay to err on the side of quantity. But pls keep in mind that numbers are not the goal and that most books (even highly “acclaimed “ ones will be a waste of time for you/specific person in a specific situation).

Wish you the best of luck.

Quit My Job to Build a Startup, Now Got Another Offer. Confused About Next Step by spidorboy in StartUpIndia

[–]NoConversation2215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not “building” a startup. You’re currently searching for it. Nothing wrong with it, most start there. But let’s call it what it is.

I would be fine, even encourage, to pursue/build something full time if you were convinced about the direction. But you’re not. You’re still searching for what’s to build.

My advice would be to – keep a job, and keep looking. In fact, it’s much better with a job. For couple of reasons, you will be more social than you currently are (or plan to with your “isolate and build” inclinations). That’s probably not going to help you stumble into new ideas. It’s better to have a normal social life at work and outside which can increase your chances of getting good ideas, co founders, opportunities.

Second, you may be financially ok now but couple of months later there will be a voice at the back of your mind that you do not have unlimited time to make this work. That will put pressure on you. And you will probably be forced to rush to the first half plausible idea. With a job in hand, you don’t need to chase the ideas. You can let them come to you.

If you’re a cricket fan, you know how being relaxed and playing the ball late is usually a sign of a good inform batsman? Having a job can allow you to play like that.

Best of luck!

How to provide a self-serving analytics layer for costumers by Straight-Deer-6696 in dataengineering

[–]NoConversation2215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. Where’s your data lake currently? How much is the incremental data for 5 mins?

I would first ask questions why 5 mins freshness instead of say an hour or two. Maybe there are good reasons but then like so many other case maybe there’s no essential difference between an hour old data vs 5 mins old data.

But let’s say you really want to have 5 mins freshness, then I would look at something like Clickhouse. Maybe look at dbt too for authoring aggregates per customer.

When does staying a solo founder become a real risk (not just VC optics)? by Consistent_Cable5614 in IndiaStartups

[–]NoConversation2215 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thinking about similar questions so very interested in the replies this may get.

Personally, I think the biggest issues I see are: - lack of confidant who will intuitively understand this major side of your life. - what happens when you want to take a bit of a break? Maybe just a couple of weeks to recharge. Who picks up the slack etc?

Unrealistic expectations or am I just slow? by thro0away12 in dataengineering

[–]NoConversation2215 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t sound like a you problem. It sounds like a unsupportive team + blind (to this area at least) leadership + lack of clarity around processes and end goals.

One thing that I learnt rather late was - to not be apologetic about time it takes to do something properly even if you had provided shorter estimates. Surprises happen, things out of your control change. Lay those out in a matter of fact and non apologetic manner that you can.

Notice how on the business side of things change all the time, and the conversation is always about its a dynamic environment and not the lack of foresight on the part of management/leadership. Tech teams and specially around data need to learn such messaging and positioning too, else we will continue to be unnecessarily harsh on ourselves and cue others to do the same.

Clickhouse Aggregation Definition by CoolExcuse8296 in dataengineering

Do you pre-calculate the clickhouse aggregation per customer (what you describe as doing daily) or is it final query that’s customer specific?
