Fixing a Bug in Zerodha's Codebase | Open Source Contributions #2 

Which project do you want me to contribute to next?

Dude this guy wants to get a jobb in every company!!!!!! (thats a compliment)

No one on youtube this kind of quality videos. This guy gives you the reality check and doesnt talk nonsense.

TBW I have not seen any youtuber making this kind of videos of open source . Hats off to you❣❣

Most RU-vidrs who talk about open source have themselves never done it. This was a really perfect way to explain.🎉

Dude I am loving you day by day, you are making me feel jealous please continue this series of Open Source Contributions

What I love about your channel is people of all skill level can learn something new. I'm not a beginner and have contributed to open source I still learn new stuff here(API Spec). Great work man.

Great video; Thanks for showing us how to solve open-source issues. Please suggest any open-source project in Java

Content is really appreciable. Thanks !!

excellent bro. the way you analyze unknown code is simply superb.

i see that sums up about how do we go through an open source project with unfamiliar tech stack ! Thanks for the video !

This is probably the big break harkirat needed for his channel

Please make a guide and compile your all open-source videos into a playlist, it shall be very helpful for newcomers to open-source. Thank You. Also, make a very detailed video on how to find open-source projects (especially for good companies) that may increase our chances of hiring.

You will never know how deep roots go, recently I was able to find few bugs in one of the softwares which used caddy as application server. The entire thing goes back 4-5 years ago when golang didn't had proper mechanism ro handle timeouts and every project that used net library used their custom solution. Down the road, we had a very small memory leak which slowed down server and kept happening. Being newb to go but knowing core C / CPP concepts itnwas relatively easy for me to pickup the slack that intriduced the bug. It happened because of very specific conditions which kept deadlock in code. It was silly mistake in code that wasn't picked by one of the maintainers maintaining some of the top tier projects. Probably having 5-6 years more expeimence than mine. The fix from our solution bubbled up in servers repository mandatinflg to fix and standardise with new controller. Also escalated to googles quic-go library. Thw thing is, this problem existed since half decade and it took so many people to fix it. Easy problems are going to get fixed very fast, by maintainers mostly. The real challenges are in those issues! So yeah, if you truely want to contribute learn whole software and stack. Understand inner code as it's not easy to just hop in and code something that would have affected thousands or millions of projects if it's core library.

excellent intro on how to do open source contribution the right way!

How to search for open source contribution

Hey @harkirat,

 I had the US B1B2 Visa appointment REJECTED today. Just to give you bit of a background. I am a remote worker since 2020 for different remote companies in Germany, Singapore and Us. Can’t shy away accepting that have been blessed with Greenfield market in exporting software services. Probably I was just unable to explain them what I do as a business person today in the appointment. But, predominantly because of the structure of my financial setup. Currently, I have a private limited registered as IT services in India, which helps me to maintain proper books for my professional expenses, Setting up Stripe for my MicroSaaS offerings, and managing taxes better. 
Do you anyway think I should just tell them I am a remote worker for tech companies. Rather than complicating them with my consulting company finances?

By watching this video I understood that I'm not a programmer anymore

So, YT suggested me this video (not sure why bcz my algo should have suggested me more music videos than coding stuff). But anyway, not sure who's style is original, but your way of speaking is pretty similar to Akshat Srivastav.

If any person open sources contribution through fundamental skill can get high paying job in Reputed company

WAO 🔵

First comment 😁

Please make an video about some good repositories for doing open source in android ( bcoz they are extremely hard to find even 1 good one)

I’m not a developer but have some practical knowledge of consumer & product research. Also some exposure in UI UX. I have suggested them multiple things but what I found later is that zerodha is not good with implementing tech anymore. They worked hard in the initial days but now days they are having more like “chal raha hai to chalne do “ type attitude.

what about the age criteria ?seems like im too late !! reply it

Long live

Kya hua samjh to nahi aya par dekh ke acha laga😅

Hey its a decent video why click bait ?

Hi Harkirat, I'm super confused between going for Canada or USA for studying and settle as a software, which will more IT oppurnities, salaries, less visa overall which will give more returns of investment? please give me your suggestion

bruh started into HFT 👍👍

bro i would rate your video creation 7 out of 10 it would have been better if you had kept your mike little bit above and its too zoomed out and you should have moved little bit towards your left and the backgrout is filled with spoilers so just 2-3 wallframes is enough.And their are many shots and you have moved the camera slightly evry time .avoid that and be consistent.thank you.

@Harkirat Singh @Harkirat Singh Dear Harikat, I hope this letter finds you well. I wanted to reach out to you today to express some concerns I have about your health, specifically related to smoking. Firstly I just wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for the incredible content you share on your RU-vid channel. Your videos have brought so much joy and inspiration into my life, and I'm so grateful for the time and effort you put into creating them. Your thoughtful insights and engaging presentations always leave me feeling inspired and motivated to be the best version of myself. Your videos have helped me to gain a new perspective on life and have made a significant impact on my personal growth and development. Thank you for being such an incredible and inspiring presence in my life. Your work is truly appreciated, and I hope you continue to share your gifts with the world for many years to come. Over the past few times we have met, I have noticed some physical symptoms that I associate with chain smoking. I have noticed that your teeth have become discolored and yellow, and your fingers have become stained. Additionally, you seem to have a persistent cough that is commonly referred to as a "smoker's cough." As your friend, I am concerned about the impact that smoking can have on your health. The chemicals in cigarette smoke can cause significant damage to the lungs, heart, and other organs, and can lead to serious health problems such as cancer and heart disease. I care about you and want to see you healthy and happy. I understand that quitting smoking is not an easy process, and that it can be difficult to break the addiction. However, I want to encourage you to take steps towards quitting smoking and to seek out resources and support that can help you achieve your goal. There are many resources available, such as support groups, counseling, and nicotine replacement therapies, that can help you on your journey to quitting. Please know that I am here to support you in any way that I can, whether that means offering a listening ear or providing information about resources that may be helpful. Your health is important to me, and I want to do what I can to support you in taking care of yourself. Sincerely, --ak
