🔍 @grok If my profile visits were a movie genre, what would it be? And who’s the main character?

👀 @grok Be honest. Was I profile-stalked by someone who uses Vim, tabs, and Arch Linux?

Interviewing interns be like: Them: “I know Python.” Me: “Great. Write a Django queryset joining 3 tables with conditions and aggregation.” Them: 🫠 #Hiring #TechInterviews #Django

Designing a delivery app with live location + nearby driver tracking — all from scratch. No Google Maps budget. No problem. Just some good old system design & WebSocket magic. #SystemDesign #FastAPI #BackendBuilder

💡Pro tip: When your app slows down, check if your database is gasping for air under 10k+ joins. Use .select_related() like you use sunscreen: always. #Django #ORM #BackendTips

Still amazed how Django Admin makes you feel like you’ve built a full SaaS app in 2 minutes. Add read-only views, filters, and BOOM — instant power tools 💪 #Django #Python #BackendBuilder

🧠 Nvidia just announced Project DIGITS at CES 2025 - bringing Grace Blackwell power to your desktop. Meanwhile, my laptop still crashes when I open too many Chrome tabs. The future is weird.

When to choose Django: → You want batteries-included → Admin panel matters → You’re building fast → Team knows Python → MVP with database backend When NOT to: → Need ultra-low latency → Microservices at scale → Real-time games or streaming → You secretly hate ORMs

When to write tests: → APIs → Core business logic → Payment flows → Authentication modules → Anything that ever failed in prod When NOT to: → One-off scripts → Throwaway data analysis → Markdown generators → Spikes you’ll delete by EOD (maybe)

🛠️ Technical debt is a loan. The interest is paid in: - Slower features - Weekend deploys - Angry senior devs Pay it off before your app needs a second mortgage. #SoftwareEngineering

If your MVP needs a 10-slide onboarding… It’s not “Minimum” and probably not “Viable” either. Test clarity before you test code. #UXDesign #ProductThinking

You're not building an MVP for investors. You're building it for: ✔️ Real people ✔️ Real feedback ✔️ Real revenue Pretty comes later. #NoCode #SaaS #Bootstrapping
