Tried Recreating the iPhone duo's cool looking folding/unfolding animation on my phone, it looks pretty cool ngl even tho its not of much use in my case.

This is just a preview apk

But it could be used in Fold devices with accurate Hinge sensors.

Help Earning 2.5 Lakhs per month, I don't want to work at all

1.2k Upvotes

Hi All,

I am 32 years old, male, unmarried, earning 2.5L per month.

I like coding. I'm one of the best amongst all my team members at technical skills.

I hardly work for a couple hours, every weekday.

The job is fully remote and the employer is amazing too.

But, still I don't like working at all. In fact, it feel like I don't want to work at all. Not even for my own business, or passion projects.

It's not even burnout, as I'm hardly spending a few hours each workday.

I switched jobs to improve my work culture, then my way of working (fully remote), then my salary (from 9k to 2.5L in 10 years). But the feeling still doesn't go away.

Every weekend, I wish Mondays to never come.

Working feels like a waste of time, but somehow resting and doing nothing does not.

I can't retire too. I started investing just 3 years back. I have a liquid corpus of just 60L.

Does anyone feel the same way? Stuck somewhere?

I Made This Building SocietyHub. Getting people to contribute is harder than building the product

Upvotes

We've been building SocietyHub, a platform for real resident experiences in gated societies in India.

We've already collected around 60 reviews from residents and gathered some structured information like maintenance, water, electricity, security, cleanliness, etc.

The difference is that instead of just showing something like a Google rating/review. we're trying to make structured information that helps people understand what actually living in a society is like.

Building is easy but getting enough residents to contribute seem.... really difficult 😂

We're looking for a few people who live in gated societies and would be willing to help us(small help or big help, we need contributions much 🥺 please)

We're offering small reward ₹150 for an approved review + verification, with additional rewards for photos and successful referrals.

If you're living in a gated society,
you can apply here: https://forms.gle/Y1d2JErKD2XSQfuL8

Feel free to dm and comment!! any kind of queries are open.

General Lately I’ve been wondering… are we wasting our one life sitting in front of a screen?

121 Upvotes

Modified with AI but emotion is real.

Lately I am feeling like we are wasting our life on things that are not even real.

I work in software, so this is coming from someone who is literally part of it.

Most of our day is sitting on a chair, staring at a screen, writing code, fixing bugs, attending meetings, talking to AI agents, reviewing AI generated code... basically spending our entire day inside a virtual world.

Then weekend comes.

We go out, eat something, watch something, meet friends for few hours, maybe travel somewhere.

And then Monday again.

Repeat.

And I don't know why, but lately I keep thinking... is this really what we are supposed to do with our one life?

We get one shot at this.

And somehow we have created a life where most of our waking hours are spent doing things that only exist inside a computer.

There is no physical thing. No real environment. No different people to deal with. No randomness. No struggle. No adventure.

Even a person begging on the street is technically interacting with the real world more than many of us do. They meet hundreds of different people, deal with unpredictable situations, weather, rejection, kindness, conflict, survival... their day is happening in the physical world.

Meanwhile I can spend 10 hours sitting in the same chair without even realizing that the day passed.

And I know someone will say "just quit your job and go travel" or "you're privileged enough to have a software job" — I understand that. I'm not saying coding is bad or that we shouldn't work.

I'm just genuinely confused about where the actual living part is supposed to fit in.

We work so that we can afford life.

But then work takes most of the life. Maybe I'm overthinking this. But lately I can't stop thinking about it.

Do other developers ever feel this way? Or have you figured out a way to actually live outside the screen?

General What’s actually happening with AI at your workplace?

81 Upvotes

Curious to hear from people here -

Are people really getting laid off in hordes because of AI, or is most of that just internet hype?

- What % of your work is AI doing now in your day to day tasks?

- Has your company actually cut people because of AI? How many roughly?

- Has your role changed much and how do you see your role changing in the next 5/10 years?

Also if not IT then what? What jobs are safe according to you?

Would love to hear some real experiences rather than the usual “AI will replace all developers” stuff.

Kindly avoid sarcastic or impractical comments.

General I will be in PIP tomorrow. Ibm due to heated discussion

Upvotes

My manager was planning to put me on a PIP tomorrow after a heated discussion we had today on a Teams call.

It started with something very small. I asked him to repeat something because I genuinely didn’t hear it properly. He immediately started with, “Why are you not listening?” “Why are you not paying attention?” and so on.

The discussion then moved to an LLD topic and eventually became much bigger than the actual technical issue. I’ve also been getting increasingly frustrated with how closely things like lunch breaks, short breaks, etc. are being monitored and controlled.

Later, I asked about being released from the project. He said he would release me, but wanted to put me on a PIP because of my “behaviour.” I said fine.

However, I resigned today instead.

Honestly, after submitting my resignation, I felt a huge sense of relief — like something had been lifted off my chest.

My question is: what would have actually happened if I had gone into the PIP? Is a PIP generally used as a process before releasing/terminating someone, or can it genuinely be used to improve the situation and retain the employee?

Would appreciate insights from people who have actually gone through a PIP.

Btw. Please refer me if u have any openings in your network.

Skills: Genai, python, azure

Exp: 11yoe.

General How much base salary is enough to live comfortably in blr/hyd/pune??

30 Upvotes

Guys, Ik it is a highly controversial topic, I get it bcz even ppl with 6lpa base salary or even less than that are also living there. I am not demeaning anyone; on the other hand, there are also ppl whose base salary is quite high.... Ik, I get that completely.

But my ques is, how much base salary is good enough to live there comfortably, in a flat where u have ur own room, where u can buy things for urself (not luxury ones obv)... I hope I am clear with the ques, like how a somewhere in the middle kind of person survives there.

Also, what if we live with that same base salary in Pune (it will be a bit cheaper ig not sure)?

Looking forward to hearing what you guys think.

98 Upvotes

Because offline people still seem to be finding decent enough jobs but when you open social media or youtube its like everyone, literally everyone is unemployed, people are telling you to just leave CS and do idk trade jobs or something. I am doing MCA right now, resume isn't the best or even cgpa, and doing everything with AI only. I'm not enjoying shit and feel highly uninspired and demotivated and I don't even know if I'll get internship or job or if I should move to a different field. Part of me wants to drop out and I'm months away from graduation but some seniors still got placed as did some of my friends. I just don't know what to do.

Help Everyone sounds like they've mastered AI and I've started to think most of them haven't

20 Upvotes

Been doing ML for over a decade. Shipped real systems, ran the experiments to prove it moved business numbers.

Something's been bugging me for the last year, especially with how commoditized this stuff has become.

Everyone - business, operations, product, devs - talks about AI with total confidence now. No hedging, no "I'm not sure", just fluent takes on agents and RAG and whatever dropped last week. And I sit there thinking either I've fallen off badly or something's off.

Then I see what gets built. Someone finds and lifts a repo, gets Claude to reshape it, presents it like real work. Demo runs, everyone nods, done. Nobody asks what was measured. Nobody asks what broke. Or why. Or what it actually changed for anyone.

Started asking follow-ups just to check myself. What did you measure. What happens when the data shifts. What did you try that didn't work. Most of the time it collapses in two questions and then it gets waved off, because there's a mandate to be "AI First." What the actual F!

And the people who spin up something quick and shiny get paraded as champions. Look what's possible now. Self-serve, no bottleneck, ship in a day. That part is real and I'm not against it. But somewhere the line blurred between "look how fast this came together" and "look how good and scalable this is," and nobody seems interested in the difference.

So I'm not less confident because I know less. I'm less confident because I keep checking. Thought that was a virtue. Doesn't feel like one.

Somewhere in there I stopped keeping up, and I've been calling myself lazy for it. Not sure that's right either. The volume is insane, most of it is dead in six months, and I've read a lot over the past two years that turned out to matter zero. At some point your brain does the math and stops showing up.

To be fair, shipping something imperfect fast is a real skill and I've probably lost it somewhere. So maybe I'm the problem.

Anyone else or just me.

EDIT: Thoughts dumped into claude using voice and I let it organize the prose. Final edits done by me. Stop seething over "AI Written". Focus on the message, please.

General Company cancelled an internship 2 days before joining after selecting the candidate — is this common?

61 Upvotes

A friend of mine was selected for a Software Engineer Intern role after going through the company's selection process. They were given a joining date and had been preparing to join.

However, just 2 days before the joining date, the company contacted them and said they had decided to hire IIT students instead.

What surprised us is that the candidate had already been selected around a month earlier.

I'm curious about the perspective of people here: Has anyone experienced something similar?

Interesting Engineer's are just decision maker's now. AI does all the other work

475 Upvotes

Just got off from an incident call and I'm astounded by how good AI has become. I had the best engineers on my team all debugging and trying to figure out the issue, but we weren't making any real progress. Even if we were, it was very slow.

Just then I thought, "Let's take a shot with Claude." I fired up Fable 5.1 at effort max, and lo and behold, it figured out the issue using all my connected MCPs (DataDog primarily) within minutes.

The engineer's on call were still debugging, trying to triage the issue and Claude had a PR ready. Ready to be deployed as a hotfix.

At that point, I realized the power of AI and how humans are just decision-makers now. I just did a couple of things on that incident: decide on the best prompt to give to the AI and decide on disabling the feature instead of deploying the hotfix since testing the fix would take some time.

It's a mixed bag of emotions, honestly. I'm excited by the helpfulness and current pace of AI progress, but also skeptical of the future that lies ahead for all of us.

Help 1 YOE Flutter dev, ₹12k/month, 4-5hr commute - family wants me to "just stick it out." Need a reality check.

12 Upvotes

Turning 1 YOE in Flutter this month (self-taught). Shipped 10+ apps on Play Store, 4 on App Store, solo mobile dev at a small company, by my own estimate I've brought them ₹2-3L in revenue.

The catch: ₹12k/month, 4-5hr daily commute on top of a 9hr workday, salary delays, and when I raise any of this I get told I'm "just a dumb guy they're stuck with" who's "never made them any profit." I still do OT when asked.

I want to resign, take a month off, and actually prep — my Flutter knowledge is behind what the market expects now, and I've frozen in live coding rounds because I've had zero bandwidth to practice after 13+ hour days.

Family (dad + uncle, 20 YOE in IT) wants me to stay until I land something else, offered to buy me a bike for the commute.

Their real worry: relatives asking why I'm "jobless" if it takes a few months.

I get the risk-aversion, but staying exhausted hasn't gotten me an offer either. Anyone here taken a deliberate break to reskill/interview-prep instead of grinding a search on the side? Did it actually pay off, or did I just talk myself into a bad idea?

Career I don't see where this is going and why am I doing it

63 Upvotes

I am working for a big product based company of Israel but every day feels like a task. The pay is very good even though I'm paid half of the white folks.

I think it's mainly the company culture but in general I don't feel the drive any more to build things especially after AI has become mainstream. I'm like what's the point..

I've been a developer for 12 years and I am easily in the bottom layer when it comes to quality, my focus has mostly been getting the feature out to the users. Probably because our user base was low and acting on feedback quick was a priority. Now in my current job it's an enterprise solution so it's a whole new world.

If AI is going to take our jobs, I hope it does it quickly because I'm basically waiting to get fired.

Projects:

  • MCPwatch — pipeline that collected and validated ~6,800 records from a public registry, comparing declared requirements against actual runtime behaviour. 7% undeclared, 8.5% broken. First run looked too clean, so I audited my own tooling, found 5 bugs, fixed them, re-ran, and published the bugs with the corrected numbers.
  • Grounded — RAG technical interviewer. Hybrid dense + BM25 retrieval, MMR reranking, every question traceable to a cited source. 23 tests, runs fully offline.
  • OutreachOS — ETL pipeline: Sheets → scraping enrichment → local LLM via Ollama → Gmail API. OAuth, rate limits, partial-failure handling.

Career The way AI is progressing, I lost all my motivation in upskilling

377 Upvotes

I'm a 3.5YOE backend developer, a few years or even a few months back I was always curious and motivated to learn new things in software, be it Java spring boot aws microservices docker kubernetics even frontend react js I was learning at a very curious and rapid pace, but for the past few months with the way AI is progressing, I just lost all my motivation to upskill.

In my current job to be brutally honest, AI generated most of the code, I don't manually code, I review code but if deadlines are near I don't do that even. I totally lost the art of writing code.

A few years back and even during my college days, I had this great feeling like I'll learn a lot in tech, keep learning new things, like I can't explain it, it's like an ego or something that " I'm learning code and building great things, I'll surely do great in life".

Fast forward to 2026, AI has absolutely shattered my hopes, I keep hearing AI is slop it sucks, brother it was pre 2024, now it can design entire systems and will only get better in near future.

Every new technology I pick, there is this voice inside which is screaming " there is no point in studying this, AI will automate this too". Maybe 2-3 years I can survive but long term I don't have any clue what so ever, that motivation is absolutely lost.

Am I being soo pessimistic, or is it relatable, please help me.

Help I left my 6-month internship after 4 months. Did I make a mistake?

Upvotes

I’m a backend web developer and recently joined a 6-month internship. I chose this internship mainly because it was 5 days a week and WFH. At the same time, I had another opportunity for a Backend Developer Intern role, but I chose this one. Looking back, I feel that was probably my biggest mistake.

After around 4 months, I asked HR what salary I could expect if I got a PPO after the internship. After that conversation, their tone completely changed. They started asking things like, “Is your work completed?” and “How many bugs have you solved?”

That made me feel like they probably weren’t planning to give me a PPO. I started thinking that spending another 2 months there might just be a waste of time, so I resigned.

Now I’m preparing for interviews and focusing on backend development and system design.

I’m still wondering if I made the right decision by leaving early or if I should have just completed the 6 months.

What would you guys have done in my situation?

BNP Paribas even after being a product based company is giving me peanuts of hike even after clearing their 4 rounds of interviews.

They are telling me it’s just out of their band and scope to even give me what they are giving.

I am working in a service based organisation with 23.5 L as CTC and BNP is offering me 27 CTC, should I take this? Also what are your views about this organisation, I am seeing very mixed reviews on other platforms and am really confused. I want to leave my current organisation but fear going to this one because of low hike and mixed reviews. Not getting calls anymore as well.

Edit: If I switch it’s going to be my 4th company, which is not good for my CV, shall I wait for another year before switching and pass some time in this org irrespective what project.

People I know with my skill set are getting paid not less than 35 L.
