We are not creative, we’re coders! Nope, I must say we’re creative coders.
Software Engineer @ Microsoft
The question isn’t whether AI will change coding—it already has. The real challenge? Ensuring we shape its future rather than being shaped by it.

I'm ecstatic. Completely out of breath.

I got featured on the homepage of HackerNoon, one of the top publishing sites for tech enthusiasts. It's really hard getting published on HackerNoon. 55% of the articles get rejected. Not only did I get published, I got featured on the homepage! This means potentially millions of people will read this article.
Ah, what a day. Alhamdullilah.
