3 random people who RT will get a lifetime license.
My hand is shaking as I type this.
I received a DM from a 20-year-old. He says that he is suicidal.
The reason? He has spent a lot of time into coding but he isn't able to keep up with the talented devs around him (esp. those who are younger than him).
A caravan to eat, sleep & work while on the go!
The handmade dream, after months of planning, designing, and putting everything together, is finally here! See you on the roads 👋

Sets hassle-free communication between the dev teams!

FYI, I was not talking about the CMD app inside Windows or any "app" per se.
I was talking about the time when Windows was run inside DOS and you had to type this to run Windows.

Just another day in open source. The dark side. 💔
You and your team put almost an entire year building a library with your sweat, blood and heart into it.
And there appears a dude saying it's all bullshit and misleading. Thank you for spoiling my day.
I feel our education system and culture needs to promote "How to live life?" over "How to get a job?".
We need to *embrace the average* because that's what most of us are, right? Even if everyone levels up, the average is going to be the average with the new set of standards.
I am excited to release React Native ARIA! 🤩
— A set of React hooks to build accessible components for React Native (Android, iOS and Web).

My response: I can totally say that there is a lot of such people around us. If not suicidal, at least a bit frustrated and lost.
Why? Maybe because of the obsession of being successful, the obsession of being the best, the competition & forgetting the little joys of life.
If you know anyone in a similar situation, please speak to them and try to help them.
If you are someone like that, speak to your closed ones and seek professional help if needed.
Keep calm & stay strong!
We aren't able to match the rising demand of qualified JavaScript and React devs at
@geekyants
.
To solve that,
@atulrp
and I are going to open up our internal JavaScript & React resources to help raise the quality & skills, eventually lowering the entry barrier.
In this era of "being the best", we need to stop chasing the perfect. Ever heard of "being over-ambitious"? Ever gave a thought why it's negative?
But how did we get here? How to get out of this? Everybody knows that the obvious answer to this is to have a balance.
There is a lot of philosophies that I can go on and on. But here is a quick recap that we one should do.
• Stop trying to become a hyper-productive money-making problem-solving machine. Take time to decompress!
• Embrace the little things in life. Take a walk downtown, make friends, spend time just doing nothing, put people and family first.
• Pick a job that's fun. We do struggle everywhere and it's needed too. When it's not manageable take a break and rethink. Most of the time...
I was on TV with
@pratiksahu
! It was an interview with ET Now under the segment Leaders of Tomorrow.
We spoke about how we are building a social-first, community-driven software company (
@geekyants
) with R&D at its core!
🚀
@GeekyAnts
is over 350 people strong today!
The three things that worked for us –
• People
• Experiments & early adoption
• Giving back that built credibility
• I remember how bad the competition days were right after my high-school. To get into the best engineering colleges, students would give up their social life. Don't let that happen again to this coding world now. It's not a competition. We are not machines!

I just saw your ad about Vedantu. You talk about scoring 98% and 99% in exams just like thermometer.
Please don't do it. 🙏
I idolize your movie 3 idiots and this ad is exactly the opposite of that.
I was so wrong about the notion that one shouldn't disclose their donations.
Disclosing donations works as a catalyst and pushes others to donate. So, donate and share on your network!
I was 13 when I got my first paycheck for building a webpage online.
The $38 cheque from the Bank of America was the most American thing in my small town. Folks at the local bank very surprised to see it and quite sceptical that it will ever get processed.
The weekend is over! I made some great progress and completed the core of my app with Game flow + State Syncing + Places on the board but still a long way to go!
Expo Web is ❤️ (
@Baconbrix
) and I feel React Native API should be the default standard of the Web ⚛️
Speaking to him on phone revealed more about his situation. He says that he *feels* that he is below average. Apparently, he doesn't want to have friends & a social life because he thinks that he will waste his time there.
We rebuilt the docs of NativeBase using
@nativebase
.
What could be a better testimony than being the first user of your own solution?
More power to React Native on the web! ❤️
See it yourself:
I am right now in some remote village in India. The smallest of vendors and stores are accepting UPI payments.
*In my experience*, making payments is not this convenient anywhere else in the world.
Technology is one part, but I'm amazed by the *massive adoption*!
