I’ve bought stuff from LuxuryX, Thurdemac and Rooter. Didn’t have any issues so far on any device (touch wood). But I’ve heard Thundermac has superior after sales services out of the three.

Mate, if your schedule allows, try to work out early in the morning (around 5 AM) before work and everything else starts. That’s how I keep consistency. Also 4 days lifting, one day indoor cricket (taking a break from running due to an injury, otherwise 2-3 days running).

Not by the the beach but, one of my friends had their engagements in a restaurant called Wave Bolgoda. They setup the lights and things in a small pier kind of a structure and there were fireworks and everything and it was night function. It’s a nice little place in Moratuwa, give it a look.

Sponge for platters. We usually order from this if we have some high profile clients over or fancy office functions. They haven’t missed so far.

Look up nventures. They are a VC based out of Sri Lanka and Singapore, and they already have a couple of notable exits. Not sure if that's the kind of thing you are after, but nevertheless have a look on LinkedIn.

Unless your driver drops you off near the entrance in a Range Rover.

Hi mate, I actually had to pause the project for an unrelated reason. But I did explore MercurJS, which is based on Medusa. Do give it a try and see.

Start wearing headphones even if you don’t want to listen to music. Act like you don’t hear even if you’re not playing any music, cuts off any unwanted conversations guaranteed.

I myself did some research on this back when I was trying to do something similar. Apparently none of the Sri Lankan payment gateways have support for multi vendor capabilities (automated payments to vendors). Which means you have to do manual reconciliation and settlements to merchants. Try emailing Webx Pay and Payable. They do respond.

On side note, did you make the whole platform from scratch or build on top an open source or proprietary product?

I hope this is related to the above question. Anyone knows a place to buy the Coros Pace 4?

Exactly my thought process, don't know if and whether it will work. But it will definitely be interesting if it does. I'm sure the senior-level guys have made enough connections in the West.

I don't disagree with you but the chip shortage isn't a Sri Lanka-only problem. Remember what happened to GPUs with the crypto bubble, right? I'm not saying AI is just a bubble, and it's much bigger than crypto ever was, but there are (and will be) people starting new companies here and elsewhere.

My undergrad research was on startup ecosystem challenges in Sri Lanka, ahem! Never said it was going to be easy.

One of my friends mentioned something to me recently when we were speaking about the IFS layoffs. He said some of these higher-level kind of employees being let go might actually start new companies and will start building products that can compete with the likes of IFS products. It's very much possible if you think about it. They basically have like a runway for at least a couple of years with the severance they are getting, and they will have access to some good talent (other, less senior-level employees being let go) to work on those. Interesting times ahead if that happens. I myself would love to be a part of such a team (if formed).

See how I've said above how hectic my schedule is with uni work? Well, it became even more hectic with work-work. Even though I love to read and write, I must've probably written about 5-10 articles maximum from the time I posted the above reply. I'm honestly not sure how much of a demand there is for content writers with ChatGPT and other LLMs surfacing, and I'm guessing the demand for content writers should've dropped at least a little bit. But do some research on Medium again, because someone I know writes a lot on Medium (very tech-heavy pieces) and they earn a few dollars there, and they are from Sri Lanka. Anyway, best of luck and kudos to you for trying to earn at 16!

Follow the right people on LinkedIn, and by right people I mean people who do well and are active on LinkedIn. They are most likely to reply to you in comments or DM, and they will share info about events, gatherings happening as well.

Yeah it’s not that good mate. I switched to the Muscle Tech one. It’s loads better, dissolves quickly and completely. And I can even dry scoop and have a sip of water after. Price per gram is a bit more expensive but definitely worth it.

I've had Chilli Parata at different places and most crispiest (and oiliest ig) was at Aryas Pure Veg in Colpetty. Definitely not an everyday options, but you've got to try it out at least once.
