Tech Roast Show - Bangalore

Software Engineer

Was disappointed with most of the audience that volunteered to be on stage @ TechRoastShow in Bangalore yesterday. I mean, why go on the stage if do not have anything interesting to say? Self-awareness anybody? Makes it a meh experience for everybody. If not particularly funny, you should at least be articulate. 

Anyway, kudos for the courage. It is not easy being on stage.

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Opened LinkedIn after ages and this is the first post I saw. That's enough LinkedIn for the day :/

Seems like a new red flag in the market

REJECT The Company The Way They Do It

Frontend Engineer

Senior Software Engineer

I am a fresher 2023 graduate and have been doing this (applying for jobs) for almost a year, everyone said you have to do internships as it is necessary so did 2 internships one for a year and another for 6 months but apparently no one counts internships as experience even jobs that had 1-3 yoe as requirement and now everyone's hiring 2024 grads as freshers (I tried to look for another internship but there were none during the time of placements).

I am now tired of this field, many full stack devs don't know shit outside Javascript world and many of them can't even use tools like git properly and are so cocky of themselves. 

Saw an SDE on twitter who apparently has 6 years of experience, doesn't even know how to configure multiple SSH and says managing multiple ssh is a downside. A women dev (cause in India you have engineers and female engineers apparently) doesn't know about sidebar cache and calls it a bug and she's in google. and If I try to roast these people with my real name there's a whole cabal of Banglorians who will grab their macbooks inside third wave coffee and start tweeting against me after aggressively drinking their Chocolate mocha frappe.

Just go into any random tech twitter space no one seems to be talking about tech it's always about DSA, interviews, LIFE IN BANGLORE, which cafe they visited.

I let myself believe tech was my passion and worked hard  for but Indian techies and companies are worst, this generation thinks they are better than their predecessor but follow the same politics everywhere even when it comes to Tech communities (who tf does politics in a community that produces open source code wtf).

They talk about networking and creating a community all the time but can't even respond to linkedin cold dm and blame the sender by nitpicking about the format 👏👏 and then they'll go on post the screenshot and rant how it's the sender fault to even try to network with them with a message that isn't written from their own blood.

Tech rant

Bangalore tech scene is weird man. I feel even the auto driver knows how to code and the third wave barista is definitely doing leetcode because that coffee & sandwich clearly don't take 15 minutes to make

Let people guess what it is that you really do.

Poorly explain what you do for a living

Press buttons in front of a medium screen, just so I can relax in front of a large screen while looking at a small screen.

A few years back this trend came up on Blind, where people connected to each other over a thread and planned to meet outside the app, calling it a Blind date.

Why don't we start it here again?

Let's see if we can beat bumble and shaadi.com 😂

Customer Success

Do you get the feeling of breaking the nose of your manager?

Sales

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Heard from a friend that he flew out to his office in the middle of the night from his wedding because mortgage backed securities started to crumble in NA during ’07 crisis.

Dude was bummed.

What is the worst thing your boss did to you?

Initially he asked me to fill his water bottle, bring snacks for him. Dint mind doing 1-2 times. But it was continuous with other juniors too.  
  
 Took a chance one day to spit on his water bottle and brought snacks for the whole team (20 people, kurkure and frooti).  🫢

Product Manager

I work as a data scientist in a remote setting. I meet my team once a quarter. Here in Bangalore all my friends and my wife have work from office so I end up getting too lonely working from home. Also, this has shrinked my network compared to before. How are others in the city handling this? What forums, IRL places do you visit to counter this. Imho, This surely isn't great for long term career prospects.

Remote job folks: how do you network and how do you deal with loneliness

Look on the positive side. You have a job which is remote.

Roast my Resume

Software Developer

More and more people are buying Premium to stop seeing their ads. 

Ankur Warikoo is the only guy who made more money talking about his startup than the startup itself.

Adtiya Kacchve tells folks that he can upskill them, but still couldn’t upskill himself to even make decently looking ads. TikTok videos look better than his ads.

Drop your roast comments down below.

I think YouTube is paying folks like Aditya Kacchve and Ankur Warikoo to throw their ads around

Machine Learning Engineer

I'm getting zero to none interview calls from past few months, please roast my resume, any input would be highly valuable for me

Roast my resume

Indian SDEs on LinkedIn & Twitter are some of the worst engineers you will ever find across the real world. Their typical value lies around:

- Cracking a FAANG/MAANG or Product company.
- Make an announcement on LinkedIn & Twitter and accumulating followers.
- Starting YouTube channel, Topmate links, affiliate marketing channels, and more.
- Rant DSA, System Design, Interview resources all day long. 
- Post daily of their office, their colleagues, candid shots, and barely getting any work done.

While this is expected out of early career professionals, it pains to see senior SDEs doing the same shit over and over again. Things don't end here — Everyone talks about creating a revolution. And the revolution is teaching DSA. 

If you are an experienced SDE and still ranting DSA, it just means that you have barely learnt anything that is of worth any value. You are atmost a "Ticket Engineer". You get assigned a Jira ticket, you bust your ass solving it, and that's it. That's your entire value. 

Its high time that these "Bhaiya", "Didis", "Bhabhis" stop ranting DSA and System Design over and over, and build something of real value. You would barely see any credible open-source projects coming out of India (but hey, we have some many contributors!), barely any Indie dev project, or anything that captures the attention of the world. 

Literally every popular SDE you might follow or see over your social media is the same. Their entire community game is a farce and designed to capture gullible college students and shill thousands of rupees out of them. You might be featured on Times Square ($40 ka showoff), but no one would remember you for anything that you built.

<Rant Over. Peace>
