@drummatick @Google When did Google force someone to spend 100s of hours doing all of these? If someone doesn't have a passion for open-source, then it's better for him/her to stay away. Also, they have very limited slots, so it's not practically possible to accept all of the applicants.

From staying awake all night to build hackathon projects in my college days, to staying awake and helping the participants to fix the bugs in their code and guide the teams to build better solutions, and then judging their solutions, it's been a long and amazing journey.

What's next? I'll continue building the open-source libraries and software, and also try to update the applications (hopefully this time) which are currently getting used by an overall 500+ active users.

A few people tried their best to pull me down and stop me from doing good work; they did enough mental and physical torture throughout the entire June month that it took me almost half a month more to come out of that trauma.

@drummatick @Google Rejection from GSoC doesn't mean the end of the career. He/she can apply again next year with improved proposals and contributions. Good developers and open-source contributors don't even require the GSoC tag, their contributions speak for themselves.

Now, you'll be able to access the environment variables based on your .env file in a type-safe way with some nice IntelliSense and autocomplete. 🤩 And guess what? It supports both JavaScript and TypeScript. 🎉

I created a fresh Next.js v13 project with Turbopack and followed the steps in the Tailwind CSS docs to configure it. But it wasn't working! It took me half an hour to figure it out when the CLI gave me a warning after restarting the server for the 5th time :) (2/3)

@DivzzTwt @debasishbsws 16GB RAM with 1TB SSD storage, also chose the 70W USB-C Power Adapter instead of the 35W Dual USB-C Port Power Adapter. Everything costs around 1.82 lakhs, including the UNiDAYS discount (paid 1k extra for the MagSafe Charging Case for the AirPods).
