Ronaldo Cooked Mr.Beast Shocked

This in addition to all the cricket sponsorship. And then getting Messi as an ambassador. All of this happened not so long back, and now the company is down to a 1 Billion dollar valuation. What was the meaning of all of this? How was this allowed to happen. There needs to be a documentary soon on Byjus.

I will start. I am jealous of Pilots as they get to travel a lot while being paid. ( Having Airhostess/es in their close circles is also one of the reasons )

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>

The malhan family bought a 25Cr house. Just wondering how much money does Sourav Joshi guy has. Most of them have already made 50+ crores.

If there is one thing you can learn from Ambani’s wedding, it’s the fact that money is the only objective measure of power and influence in this world. - The biggest rivals politically, share the stage and greet each other The biggest rivals in cricket, dance with each other The biggest rivals in cinema, greet each other The biggest rivals within family, help each other The biggest rivals in business, hug each other - You should strive to make as much money as you possible can because money is power. You don't do it for pleasure; you do it because that's how you win. You do it because in this ruthless world, being on top is the only safe place to be. Money is your shield and your weapon, and without it, you're nothing. - You make as much money as possible because, let's face it, money's fun. It's the key to all the cool stuff—power, parties, private jets, you name it. Sure, it's also about proving yourself and not being the screw-up everyone thinks you are, but mainly it's about the thrill. Making money means you're in the game, you're relevant, and you can do whatever the hell you want. - Plus, it gives you the leverage to tell people to screw off and actually get away with it. So, yeah, stack that cash and enjoy the ride. - You make as much money as possible because it’s your ticket to security and status. In this family and in this world, wealth is what keeps you safe and respected. It’s about climbing the ladder and proving you belong at the top, even if you weren’t born into it. With money, you gain leverage, influence, and the ability to protect yourself in a cutthroat environment. Plus, it doesn’t hurt to enjoy the finer things and have a buffer against the chaos that comes with being alive in this world. - You make as much money as possible because it’s about breaking boundaries and redefining what’s possible. It’s not just about the money—it’s about the disruption, the innovation, and staying ahead of the curve. - Continued in comments

Finally my 6 months of dedicated effort is paying off

From someone in their tech team, got to know very curious insights. CrickPe is built on Solidity smart contracts that automatically enforce performance bonuses for cricketers. However, the underlying logic is enforced on an ELO based system with log-normal rewards. Essentially, if a cricketer rewards are: Reward = Expected(reward) +- log(performance). Their ELO is similarly adjusted on a match by match basis. Also, Insider reveal is that, VC community is keen on investing and Ashneer is considering raising funds but has made clear that he is willing to liquidate only till he has majority stake in the venture, although aiming at closer to ~75%. Also, they are experimenting with NFTs linked to rewards that give you insider access to pre-game locker room access with your favourite teams, flying you out to international matches abroad, etc. This will also be tradeable in-app. They are apparently looking for Blockchain Devs/interns for that. Finally, the biggest news. They’ve apparently launched a bid to get a fan-experience zone specific to CrickPe in the stadiums during IPL. The plan is to sell these tickets at a higher cost. Fans who watch games from this zone get to play a special variant where the highest scorer is given their reward from the MOTM.

Just saw that a share chat competitor eloelo did some live with a guy Puneet superstar. It did quite a breakout on social media platforms. Do things like these make the rounds in parallel companies as well?
