1. As you move up the career ladder, you'll realize nobody knows anything. Everyone is just making their best guess.

2. Hiring is broken. The best two ways to get hired are through your network or by building something useful.

3. Work your ass off for the first 2-3 months of any project or job. People want someone trustworthy and reliable who can deliver. You need to establish that early on to secure long-term work.

4. Job security is a myth. I wake up every morning thinking this is my last day at work.

AI & Technology

5. People who say "skill issue" when you struggle with AI are just pretending they know everything.

6. AI is a tool, and a fool with a tool is still a fool. It's like a hammer. Give it to the wrong person and they'll break windows instead of building houses.

7. To get the best out of AI, you must read, write, and draw extensively yourself. These are the very things most people delegate to AI, which is exactly what we shouldn't do.

8. Producing content using AI doesn't make you smart. It's like wearing good looking clothes. It doesn't make you intelligent.

9. With AI, people sit at extremes. Those who think it's just autocomplete are underestimating its power, and those who think it will replace developers are overestimating it.

Business

10. Students who enroll in computer science aren't interested in computers. They just want to make money from home.

11. A person with mediocre business skills with mediocre technical skills is far superior to someone with high technical skills with less business skills.

12. Business people live in the delusion that if their competitor can do something, we should be able to do it easily. "If they can build WhatsApp and ChatGPT, why can't we?"

13. Coding was never the problem. Understanding "What problem are we solving?" was.

Productivity

14. Slack is a productivity killer.

15. Tech people procrastinate by solving technical debt that isn't aligned with business goals.

16. WhatsApp's audio feature is an example of feature abuse. People describe a problem in a one- minute audio that could be explained in a one-line text.

17. To beat procrastination, you need to push through the first 300 seconds of any hard task.

Mindset & Psychology

18. All problems are emotional problems. Fix the emotion and you fix the problem.

19. People know their problems and the solutions, but they lack the guts and will to act.

20. People don't like simple solutions because they're too simple to be believable, and they don't attract attention. People like complex solution so that they can brag about it.

21. The less I care about outcomes, the better things get. Finding a job, writing a blog, making videos, all of it.

Life & Well-being

22. You can't be successful alone. You need people around you starting with family, partner, friends, and your professional network.

23. Having kids is a classic example of the Pareto principle. You suffer 80% of the time to get 20% happiness. However, that 20% happiness makes your life 80% better.

24. Exercise is the best drug to improve both the quality and quantity (in terms of days) of your life.

25. You become whatever you consume. Junk food makes your body junk, and junk content makes your mind junk.

Note : There are always be exceptional people. However, finding those exceptional people is like finding a needle in a haystack. But if you do find them, never leave them.

So, what’s your rant from 2025?
