it's happening 🤯... after contributing to 7+ global technical communities, writing blogs, building, volunteering & leading teams. I'm finally applying to DevRel University's Cohort 7 🌊🚀 the goal is to scale the access of tech for everyone. thanks to DevRel University :) 💫

for the past one month, been doing ds and applying here n there & did'nt posted my daily journey... a recruiter reached out to me this morning with an offer of 20k/month as stipend (onsite noida) but i think, i should keep grinding instead moving there :(

since past 1 month, i've been secretly doing Data Strctures.. moving towards algo :) incase you were following my journey, pardon me xd, ps: thanks for staying with me till here. btw, here's high level implementation of Iterative Merge Sort

last week's update: spent less time learning due to exams, but few PR's got merged - made me happy as i was new to open source. lessons learnt : you don't need to be expert to start your open source journey, but would need a quality PRs to level up & win trust of maintainer.

today's update: ✅ Finally completed the RUST BOOTCAMP by @kirat_tw (Part 1 & 2) > took me a long time but rust has a steep learning curve, will improve as i go :) > next up : a lot of practice n projects..! > i'm ready to deep dive into @blueshift 's now 🔥

today's update: > after failing an interview today, i decided to continue a hard 45 days Interview prep challenge for startups from tomorrow. no ai, no web3, just me grinding through code and execution. this is quite sad to see. myself bumming an interview. i need to practice..

I didn’t drop off. X overwhelmed me, so I stepped back and kept building. Last month (quietly): • 3 projects shipped • Learnt Rust (Basics) • 1 mini CLI Project on Rust • Shipped First Solana project. Less noise. Small steps. Back to posting, accountability matters.

the most successful successful people that came out of any cohort were: - determined - persistent - focused - had PoW being obsessed and relentless about something you really wanna do can make you stand out from the crowd...

Rust is about one thing only : > Memory safety without garbage collection. > Solana chose rust because: >> no GC pauses (deterministic) >> High performance >> Compile-time safety (no runtime panic on-chain)

happy to announce, i got selected for the Wormhole fellowship XD. also, I got selected as one of the 125 members out of 2500+ applicants for the Rektoff's Rust Solana Security Bootcamp. 🥂 january is going well for me. need to build ship and network:)
