Hannji, So System Design Cohort First class kick off done 🔥🔥🔥 Loved the energy 🔥🔥

🔥🔥 Vercel is down, their builds are failing Vercel

Update on 𝚍𝚡𝚋𝟷. The situation has worsened and it’s progressed into a full blown, multi-AZ outage. (Possibly first ever of its kind ever from a non-software root cause) Many workloads on Vercel are global in nature. Routing Middleware for instance automatically deploys

Learned about video processing and streaming systems, how video upload works, how chunking helps large files upload safely, and how transcoding creates multiple video qualities for streaming. Also learned how real platforms handle this at scale. Piyush Garg Hitesh Choudhary

I have been on both sides, a seeker once and a recruiter now. The truth is, most companies don't care about you. - Companies fire people overnight: Even when a company makes billions in profit, they will fire you in one morning because someone somewhere was not happy. They don't

Learned about AI with Piyush Garg

From not knowing what PostHog is to now giving a KT session on it in my org. Come a long way

Almost built a full infra setup with Redis + workers, crons. Even ChatGPT was going along with me 😅 Then I checked the actual workload: ~3-4 sec per request. Simplified everything to a single API. Good reminder: business use case > engineering itch.
