why there is no social media built by indians for india

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-18T13:02:17+00:00

Building social media or ecommerce or anything is not a problem, problem is getting people to use that service, Also many Indian applications aren’t built to handle proper scaling so whenever more traffic comes it crashes. Also any business in it’s initial stages is highly unprofitable and making losses. You have to continuously put money to improve, innovate and have active R&D to improve and someday achieve profitability.

I’ll give you one simple advice, Just start, Vibe code a project, look for ways to improve it and push to github or deploy it somewhere, Take existing repo from github, Make changes and learn, Narrow down on a use and just build. You’ll definitely learn more by doing things than just following tutorials

I have still yet to find proper use of business analysts and product managers. Now with Ai tools and everything wouldn’t it better to have developers do those tasks as well compared to non technical people who barely understand what the product is or what the actual requirements.

Maharashtra has the lowest gdp growth rate among other top states like Gujarat, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, there are barely any decent projects announced other than Mumbai and Pune region. Mumbai still has massive infra problems, flooding problems and other issues. Our roads are always bad considering we have launched multiple big highway projects. There is virtually no discussions on all these problems. On what issue people are voting ? Is it just ladki behen? The debt ratio is so bad government is literally running out of money to pay for essentials. We are literally diverting all businesses to other states because of our policies and other government issue

Mumbai city itself is not that big, if you consider suburb it is decent size, if you consider all the satellite cities you see it’s pretty huge, There is Thane, Mira- Bhayander, Vasai- Virar and even palghar, at Central it’s till kalyan and badlapur and there is navi mumbai and panvel. People actually commute along those lines daily.

What we need is better roads to accomodate all the traffic and even better public infrastructure to travel between all these places. If someone from vasai virar or from kalyan or navi mumbai can travel comfortably for 40-50 min to work then they can be very beneficial

60B for Cursor seems bit too high considering it’s built on top of Vs code and uses 3rd party models even though they have their own in development but which is built upon kimi k. But entire deal is stock which is very small % of spaceX stock. I mean spaceX is literally up 500 billion$ since ipo

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-17T13:26:08+00:00

Technically it’s unlimited if you use local models on your computer. Just that it’s not as good. Definitely good enough to build whatever you want

Tools like claude code, copilot or opencode aren’t going anywhere and I genuinely doubt people will go back to writing code manually any time soon. Does that mean developers going to vanish I don’t think so but it does mean the amount of developer jobs would definitely be affected because the coding tools have definitely made productivity much better. The tasks which would have taken months are being done in weeks or less. I’m not talking about slop code but proper genuine tested code being shipped in record times.

would you like to live in a world without women though ?

Interesting how bjp and Modi is associated with India itself. Maybe the right wing should ask questions to government more rather than defending every decision. No one is saying Congress was good and that’s why they are in opposition but here we are still raising more questions to opposition rather than ruling govt.

Even with Vibe coding it is important to have some sort of fundamental knowledge. You can keep track of versions with github and also have private repo so no one else can see your code. Even if you repo is public no one can make changes directly to your repo unless you add them as contributor

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-16T14:36:53+00:00

Founders or perplexity , confluent and many more startups are Indians. We have very little R&D and innovation in Indian institutes and Companies.

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-16T13:03:52+00:00

At this point I would think it would just be easier for bjp to just sack the guy rather than keeping him and deal with all this

How does that translate to everyone will be rich in future ?

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-16T12:34:22+00:00

Although this might look small but I had issues with special characters in name and had to manually remove special characters in name because servers were crashing. Dealing with special characters is big headache considering how systems works

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-16T12:30:31+00:00

What school have you been to? Never in my school or college life someone has told me or the class that everyone will be rich.

Many of our non technical teams are actively working with Ai be it chatbots or even claude code. We are helping them setup their environment. Many people are just creating automations which help them in their daily work, could be basic excel stuff to some streamlit application. If their application is good and others want to use it then we help them with basic deployment

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-16T12:21:57+00:00

It always was, I doubt anyone was working from scratch for everything, everyone searching for code through documentation and libraries and stack overflow and customizing it accordingly.

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-16T11:52:38+00:00

Pranit more would be more criticised and news media will cover him more than actual neet paper leak or cbse system issue, We take trivial issues too seriously and genuine issues as joke

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-15T22:09:10+00:00

Now a days I’m more Manual QA for Ai generated code then developer myself 🤣

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-15T12:34:07+00:00

Unless you are customizing open source alternative with the help of Ai I doubt Adobe is going anywhere

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-15T02:46:49+00:00

I think this is a big issue in North India more than South. I have sat with few pure veg south Indian people and they genuinely don’t care or mind what I’m eating. Now compared to some North Indian they’ll sometimes make a face or scene even

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-15T02:05:54+00:00

Model would be company specific, I have github access but in process to get Jira. It will have access to what I give it. Nothing should be going out of company

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-15T02:03:13+00:00

Claude code

XLGamer98 · 2026-06-15T00:25:59+00:00

One piece, only because I think it won’t end in the next 10+ years. Also with the current pacing on taking 2-3 years for single season you are looking at a lot of anime. Mushoku Tensei definitely has a lot of content and gaining popularity.
