Someone tried to seriously demotivate me today (Thread)🧵💔

Today, I went to someone's house with my mother.
Let's call this person mr. A-whole.

(Just so you know mr. A-whole and I met for the first time.
We know nothing about each other. )

After 5 minutes of conversation..

with my mother he asked me, "What do you do?"

Me: "I am a final year CSE undergrad."

Mr. A-whole: "So, does your university have On-Campus placements?"

Me: "Yes"

mr. A-whole: "That is good. You should definitely try to get a job though placements"

🧵

Me: "Well, I have a different plan. I am going to further continue my studies."

(Obviously the plan is quite elaborate and I wouldn't tell a person who have met me just 5 minutes ago)

mr A-whole: "So M. tech.?"

Me: "No I'll do self study for a while. Not a degree."

🧵

mr A-whole:

"You don't look like a person who is disciplined. Through my experience I can tell you can't do self study. You should definitely try to get a job...blah blah blah my collogues destroyed their career... blah blah blah.

🧵

And then he spent the next 5 minutes ripping my dreams into pieces.
Shredding away my capability without having the slightest idea of who I am, what I do, what I am going through right now (which is a lot).

He basically told me I can't do anything (from looking at me once.)

Important Topics to learn/master to become a DECENT JavaScript Developer

A Thread🧵

I have seen most beginner web developers skip these topics and directly move on to frameworks/libraries.

The following topics will help you in your career, and they will also make you a better JavaScript developer.
👇

1.⚡️ Closure
A closure gives you access to an outer function’s scope from an inner function. In JavaScript, closures are created every time a function is created, at function creation time.

2.⚡️ Asynchronous JavaScript
We all know JavaScript is Asynchronous but mostly we ignore how it's single threaded execution is actually working.
looking under the hood of JavaScript's working will definitely help you to understand the language better.

3.⚡️ Promises
A Promise is a proxy for a value not necessarily known when the promise is created. It allows you to associate handlers with an asynchronous action's eventual success value or failure reason.

How to join a developer community?
or
How to find mentors/developer friends?

A detailed thread 🧵👇

For context I have been a part of various developer communities for ~3 Years. I have found that learning with people is the best and most effective way to learn.

So here are the ways you can join a developer community:

💻 If you are a student

Many companies have their campus ambassadors/ Hack clubs / Developer club program that you can join or lead in your campus.

Some of my favorites:

⚡️Student Ambassador program @Microsoft (I am a part of this for 2 years now)

Dear postgraduate students

Everyone says selecting your supervisor(s) will make or break obtaining your degree with a sound mind. This is true. So here are a few of my own tips on just how to do that. I hope it helps.

(Thread)

1. Know what you need from the get-go. As people, and as students, we need different things to succeed. Ensure you know what this is for you and make your search and eventual selection of a supervisor based on that.

2. How do you know which academic does what? Either email a number of potential academics or organise a quick in-person/online meeting with them to discuss their respective research interests. You can either align yourself to these or ask if they’re willing to take you on but...

...supervise a topic outside of their own research interests. It’s not unheard of but just depends on them.

3. Ask them about their supervision style, what works for them and assess whether that sounds like it would work for you. You can love their research topics but if you feel like they won’t be a good enough supervisor, find someone else. Remember you’re going to be spending...

I posted earlier about Fake Ass getting bullied at school...
So let's take a look at some of his past tweets...the ones he forgot to delete before he became a US operative, US diplomat and clandestine....
These aren't photoshopped these are actual screenshots...


No wonder...


Here he says he was jumped...he has a way with the ladies....
He also says he never touches those girls...what did you really do Omastole, for them to jump you?
He also mentions his wrestling...


Maybe these tweets can give us a clue..
He also tells us his old school...
Linden High...New Jersey.

The Copywriter’s Guide to Buyer Persona

•••THREAD•••

1. Define a Background

For this thread we will be selling Mass Gainer protein shakes to college men that want to gain weight.

Go deep and make a full profile up of one of these people.

You want to include:
> age
> job
> what they do in free time
> what they’re feeling

Example:

Brad is a junior in college (21 years old). He does work during the week and parties on the weekends.

He started going to the gym with his friends but isn’t really seeing results. He’s starting to get frustrated and wants to find a cure to his problems.

2. Define Their Goals and Challenges

When you define these things, you can use them in your copy.

Painting your ideal customer’s pain points throughout your copy is important.

You need to show them that they have a problem, and you can solve.

Example:

Brad is fairly skinny and wants to gain weight fast.

He’s tried eating more but can’t eat enough, or maybe he eats the wrong things.

Whatever it might be, it’s not working and he’s getting frustrated.

1/ there is this sense when you are young that your accomplishments need to be a list of things that seem impressive to others. A list of several items you did.

This isn't actually right, so here is another suggestion.

2/ I remember being 26 and writing about reading 52 books a year. I wrote blog posts about it. They got copied. It became "a thing." Now it's in Twitter bios. It looks impressive but it's insanely useless and I shouldn't have done it.

3/ what I should have known at that time is that only young idiots like myself, with no accomplishments, find list of tiny achievements impressive. Anyone who has actually done anything of substance doesn't gaf

4/ what is actually difficult, and worthwhile, instead is to do ONE single thing for a very, very long time. It's much harder and much rarer and results in outlier outcomes much more often.

Of course you can find this out too late if you are chasing the dragon of Ted talks etc

5/ if I had only worked on a startup for a year, I would've gotten nowhere, the same way that if you lift for 3 months, it achieves nothing. Everything good in life comes from perseverance, but at the beginning, you're just like "I need to be somebody!!!"

Oh my Goodness!!!

I might have a panic attack due to excitement!!

Read this thread to the end...I just had an epiphany and my mind is blown. Actually, more than blown. More like OBLITERATED! This is the thing! This is the thing that will blow the entire thing out of the water!


Has this man been concealing his true identity?

Is this man a supposed 'dead' Seal Team Six soldier?

Witness protection to be kept safe until the right moment when all will be revealed?!

Who ELSE is alive that may have faked their death/gone into witness protection?


Were "golden tickets" inside the envelopes??


Are these "golden tickets" going to lead to their ultimate undoing?

Review crumbs on the board re: 'gold'.

Saptapadi

The most essential rite (Sanskrit: rītī) of a Hindu marriage ceremony is Saptapadi (English: seven steps, saptapadī). Saptapadi is a Sanskrit term that means "seven steps." The wedded couple walks seven steps after tying the Mangalsutra, which is known as Saptapadi.


The couple legally becomes husband and wife after the seventh step.
Hindu wedding rituals: During Saath Phere, the bride and groom exchange their marital vows while circumambulating (walking around) the sacred fire seven times.


This is because the bride and groom exchange marriage vows and hope for a happy married life together.

1. The first marriage vow, out of seven, is a petition to the Lord for nutrition and nourishment for the Hindu bride and groom.


2. Hindu Bride and Groom: The second marriage promise is for strength in sickness, health, good times, and terrible times.

3. For the Hindu Bride and Groom - The third marriage promise is for the Hindu bride and groom's prosperity.

4. For Hindu Bride and Groom - The fourth pledge is to stand by their families in good times and bad.

Wracając do sedna dzisiejszego zamieszania z artykułem autosportu / motorsportu. Kubica mówi w nim, że podejmie swoją decyzję w ciągu kilku dni. Rozważa opcję z Williamsem lub posadę kierowcy symulatora w Ferrari. Więc za kilka dni dowiemy się co go czeka za rok. #F1PL

Autosport / motorsport zmienił nagłówek swoje tekstu, bo pierwotnie sugerował on że Kubica jest numerem jeden na liście Williamsa na tytuł mówiący tylko tym, że nadal jest na liście kandydatów. Zrobili to po interwencji zespołu. Same wypowiedzi Kubicy z wywiadu się nie zmieniły.

Trudno powiedzieć czy autor się pośpieszył i wyciągnął inne wnioski niż powinien, a może wie coś więcej, ale nie mógł tego otwarcie napisać. Słowa Kubicy brzmią jednak jednoznacznie: decyzję podejmie w ciągu kilku dni.

Make them irrelevant > Hold a grudge

Holding a grudge is the easy thing to do.

But holding a grudge is not the right thing to do.

A grudge puts poison in your body & rewires your subconscious mind.

You consume the poison & destroy your reality while your attacker sleeps like a baby.
