Tool

Still my favorite tool for thinking visually before touching code. Nothing else comes close for quick system diagrams.

Makes code snippets look beautiful. I use it more than I should.

Lightweight API testing in the browser. Reach for it before Postman every time.

The clearest resource I know for design patterns and refactoring intuition. Bookmarked and revisited often.
refactoring.gururoadmap.sh
Useful for figuring out what I don't know yet. I come back to it whenever I feel directionless.

System design made visual. I revisit these diagrams more than any textbook.

Movie
8 savedZindagi Na Milegi Dobara
I rewatch this every time I need a reminder to stop overthinking and just go.
imdb.comThe Secret Life of Walter Mitty
A film about finally doing the thing instead of just imagining it. Watched it once and thought about it for weeks.
imdb.comYeh Jawaani Hai Deewani
Wanderlust, ambition, and the people you keep coming back to. Hits differently every rewatch.

Show
9 savedScam 1992
Harshad Mehta's story told so well it almost makes you root for him. One of the best things I've watched.
imdb.comBreaking Bad
Nothing has been quite as tightly written since. The standard I hold everything else against.
imdb.comPanchayat
Quiet, warm, and somehow the most relatable show about being thrown into something you didn't expect.

Music
7 savedFrank Ocean
The kind of music that makes a late evening feel like it has a soundtrack. Nothing else sounds quite like it.
open.spotify.comRex Orange County
Soft, honest, and weirdly comforting. Good for mornings that don't need to rush anywhere.
open.spotify.comCigarettes After Sex
Slow and cinematic. I put this on when I want the world to feel a little quieter.

Makes the biggest questions feel approachable. I watch these when I want to think about something other than work.

Street food from every corner of the world. Basically travel planning disguised as entertainment.

Loud, fast, and genuinely passionate about the craft. Hard not to care about code after watching.
