On Technology & Innovation
Tech should help people, not the other way around. The best stuff I've built comes from actually understanding what problems people have and the culture of how they think.
not entitled to say this but
working in the field of tech like
Blockchain means freedom from control to me, but honestly a lot of projects are just money grabs. Everyone's trying to solve the same problems in slightly different ways.alot of people tryin hard, but the pact of development is quite faster than the other fields
eg: like you need to keep the excitements and momentum , it;s like making sure your child get's a good new food every meals day for the next day at school
AI is cool but I'm careful about where it's going. I use it daily but we're nowhere near AGI yet. It should help humans, not replace us.
On Work & Life Balance
I sleep way later than most people and that's fine. Being productive isn't about following someone else's schedule, it's about working when you're actually focused.
Growing up in Imphal taught me about community and appreciating simple things. Small towns keep you for real.
but again you tell yourself, gotta leave this small town and go to a big city to make it big and be successful.
and you could be wrong on that, realize lately, at what cost i did that,
On Learning & Growth
Every project teaches me something. Whether it's about me currently building extremely hard to do projects like UpFloor or checking out crypto, I'm cool with failing fast and learning.
I try to stay open to ideas from different fields. Sometimes the solution to a tech problem comes from psychology or economics. I like building stuff that actually helps me or makes a system work better.
On the Future
We're in a weird time where real and digital worlds are mixing. The next 10 years will be about using tech without losing what makes us human.
I'm hopeful about the tech we're building.
On Community & Connection
Even though I work in tech, human connection matters most. The best projects come from teams that trust each other and understand their users.
Isolation has been a big part of my life. A lot of people judge me based on how I live versus what they think social life should be.
This has affected my relationships and lifestyle I have lost good friends and connections, not because I wanted them to go away.
People rarely try to understand what it's actually like for me. They see my choices and make assumptions without asking.
I avoid praising or favoring people just to get something from them. Been burned by that too many times.
But I have high resilience. When something is really hard to work on, I usually figure it out eventually.
