Thoughts

Yesterday, I was with a friend and we went to the office and we were discussing about the skills we need as software engineers in today's day and age. I mean most of the things can be done through copilot or through chatgpt, then why do we need good quality software engineers? Why is the skill still in high demand? Then after giving this a long thought, we came to the conclusion that software engineering is required because it's engineering. Which in reality means to design and build. We still need people to design good software we still need people to understand the problem well, we still need great problem solvers, and sometimes problem solving is that one skill that many software developers don't have. They don't have the capacity to think clearly and properly on what it is that they are trying to solve. So today's topic is going to be on problem solving.  Problem Solving:  Problem solving is the act of defining the problem, diagnosing the problem’s root cause, i...

 Hello World ! I was wondering what can I write about today, thought oversharing is a wonderful topic to talk about. But I am someone who gets caught with oversharing very often. I overshare and then wonder if that was good. Never mind, as I write this, I need to understand that oversharing might be something different than what I thought it is. So I am just going to write a little about oversharing, will follow the same framework, the what, the why and the how. So what is oversharing really?  the disclosure of an inappropriate amount of detail about one's personal life.  Google defines oversharing as the disclosure of an inappropriate amount of detail about one's personal life. Okay, so this is a very broad definition of oversharing. So we need to understand what's the appropriate amount of information and what's inappropriate. Sometimes we all get confused with what oversharing means in different contexts of our lives, we confuse oversharing with being vulnerable. For...

In recent times, I have been seeking external validation, and that's making my life a little difficult in terms of what I am doing at the moment. I am sometimes too nice, sometimes way too nice to people, saying things about them. Now that I was thinking about it, I realized the reason I am way too nice to some people is because I want them, deep down, to like me. I can't give you the exact incident, but it's something work-related where I want everyone to like me. Now, I am not saying that there’s anything wrong with having that kind of approach and having someone validate you, but doing everything so that you get their validation is totally wrong. Doing things for what they are is more important than anything else, not for the fact that it will make you likable or will make you feel better. I feel that's wrong to think of. So, I decided to grab some quotes from the internet to help you realize why validation is not something you should seek. 1. Freeing yourself : When...
