Replying to @zomatocare
@zomatocare @zomato @deepigoyal you are support is completely useless. you have purposely made it so difficult to talk to a customer support representative. this is clearly intentional to save some money which people ask on refunds

Even after somehow reaching the customer support representative. He closed the chat without resolving my issue. I can not start another chat as the issue has been marked closed by you without resolving my issue.

the questions you ask at the end of interview can really change the interviewers perception of yours, and make you come out on top.
I would actually really love to see the metaverse being built one day, not because it's cool, but.. metaverse could really help learn things that are difficult to do today, minimize distractions and being more productive.

just to be clear, I am not imagining the first gen metaverse that zuck is show casing right now. I am saying full on matrix, current metaverse is just step one.
not a fan of these hiring freeze
any update on why whatsapp was down yet?
seems about right. there would come a point when carbon-based life forms would cease to exist, and the only thing left will be our conscience.
What happens when you ask an AI to generate "Human Evolution." This is terrifying.
apparently, amazon has an (or used to have) amazing build system called brazil, based on this gist from 5 years ago - gist.github.com/terabyte/15a… I am trying to reproduce the exact functionality using rust, but the information in the gist is limited (and outdated), can someone help?
for decentralised networks to become the norm, we need to work on creating nodes (hardware) that can be owned by individuals, so that it's truly decentralised, instead of running a lot of nodes in a central place by some select individual.
1
feels like by the time we end up developing hardware that can be always connected and always available, we would have found a work around for the same problem and not end up developing hardware for the same.
I have been trying to think of a solution to setup ephemeral environment on local for dev testing. something like workspaces (as in go.work file) keeps popping into my head.
is there something we can use to setup a bridge-to-kubernetes (or telepresence) like environment but for multiple services?

it's amazing how amazing rust's docs are.
rust is such a well thought out language, but those compiler errors are a pain in the ass.
I am not sure if I can add projects I developed at my company's hackathon to my resume. Can someone help? #softwareengineer #opentowork

recently, at my company hackathon, I built a distributed file system to store health records for ensuring their security. I am curious to know what might be the fallbacks for creating distributed storage as a global solution.
I have found writing API tests in Golang a bit jarring, we need to call each handler/endpoint that needs to be tested manually. I tried to do something else this time. How about defining all the test cases in a JSON file, and simply running the tests from there. #Golang #API
1
the `test()` function parses the JSON file and runs all the tests as subtests. This method can either be called for testing each model separately (that's how I divide my tests) or all the endpoints could be tested using this one function together.

this might not be the best way to do API testing, but we can't know for sure unless we try different things. Let me know if there's any other different you have tried to test your APIs in Golang. #Golang #API #testing
