Yeab

Good to be back 🙏

I scheduled a post exactly after a year from now. We'll see what it is, if god wills😊

We're celebrating our highest number of joins in 1 day It’s been more than a year since this channel was created. During that time, it has been my personal space to post my accomplishments, thoughts, and stories as I level up in problem-solving and development. That’s why I haven’t promoted it publicly (well… except on my profile 😁). I know that someday this channel will be full of people and today we hit our highest number of joins in a single day: Seven. That happened because the 50th member, Ayida shared one of our posts. Huge shoutout to her 😁,

I solved my first hard problem. and guess what... I didn't use AI I started leetcode when we started our first semester this year to join A2SV. a lot of people were applying to join A2SV by solving more than 10 problems a day using AI like chatgpt. at that time I didn't want to do so because you know what is the point if I pass... but things didn't go well A2SV just selected people with more than 70 problems solved for an interview. I did 45 at that time and got discouraged when I see I'm selected and stopped. but when one of my friend who made it to A2SV (spoiler alert; he didn't use an AI 😁) he told me there's gonna be an intake in february which was the month just after the first semester ended. So I stayed at college for the brake and did leetcode for the whole month... (I don't know why I was so obsessed with A2SV though 😂) and there were no announcements. I reached out to some of the HoEs (Head of Education) and eve Emre himself and they told me there's not gonna be any intake in this year. once again I was discouraged and slowly stopped leetcoding. on march A2SV announced there's going to be an intake and that applicants need 150 problems solved to apply. I had 110 problems at that time and only four days until the application deadline. so because knew I didn't make it last time when I honestly tried to apply by solving problems by myself but this time I solved about half (20) of the remaining 40 problems and I made it to the interview. but then again I was kinda nervous and was not good at explaining my solution. I didn't pass. During these times I was grinding leetcode solely to become an A2SVian. but it taught me problem solving and because I saw improvements on myself on development, I decided to continue solving at least one or two problems a day. With GC project, class, final exams, It was hard to keep up but I tried. It was this time I heard about Blue Nile Dev Community founded by Sifen, Ayida and Ruth. I joined them as an intermediate and at first we were doing easy problems, and as we go through the course it was becomming more and more harder. and today I did my first Hard problem. Huge thanks to Blue Nile Developers for building this space. I'm excited for all the adventures that lie ahead. I'm so happy. just wanted to share the milestone with some context 😊

Man leaving campus for the last time and saying goodbye to everybody feels so sad 😢 Goodbye everyone! 👋 Hoping to meet you again 😊

I have good feeling that we're building a beautiful community. Where we grow together. Something we'll be grateful of in the near future.

Yay😄 we're now 50 here. Thank you so much everybody for joining and staying here. Much love ❤️

🎓 A Chapter Ends, A Legacy Begins 🎓 Today marks the end of an unforgettable journey. From the first lecture to the final exam, from laughter with friends to long nights of hard work—every moment has led to this one. What I’ve learned from my time at UV is simple, but powerful: “Whatever you're doing to succeed—if you do it consistently, you'll definitely succeed.” It’s not always about being the smartest or the fastest—it’s about showing up, again and again, even when it’s hard. To everyone who walked this path with me—thank you. Here’s to the future. 🌟 #Graduation #UV #NewBeginnings #ConsistencyIsKey #Grateful #Onward

I'm on my graduation ceremony 🎉

Building something interesting for developers. This is the design. I hope you'll love the app when done...

So a few days ago, I was manually typing my channel handle at the end of my Telegram channel's post. Then it hit me: “Wait a minute... I’m a developer now. I can automate this!” Boom. That spark turned into a bot! Now, Telegram Signature Bot does all the signature work for you — silently, consistently, and without any copy-paste fatigue. Just set your custom tag once, and let it handle the rest. Want to try it out? Scroll to the "How to Use" and let the bot do the typing for you 💬✨ Github Repo Link @aydus_journal

We started our DSA journey at Bluenile DSA community today. Man I was nervous. but it was good. I'm happy to have other like-minded people in this journey.

It happened be there are researches on this topic check them out if you're interested: Kosslyn, S. M., Ganis, G., & Thompson, W. L. (2001). “Neural foundations of imagery.” Published in: Nature Reviews Neuroscience

Found that when people imagine objects or actions, similar brain regions are activated as when they actually see or perform them. This supports the idea that mental imagery (like imagining tasting a lemon) activates real sensory/motor systems.

Tod, D., Hardy, J., & Oliver, E. (2011). “Effects of self-talk: A systematic review.” Published in: Journal of Sport & Exercise Psychology

Positive self-talk significantly improves performance, motivation, and coping mechanisms in athletes — and the same applies to other high-stress or skill-based situations (like coding or public speaking).

A while ago, I watched a reel where a girl guided an interesting exercise. She asked us to imagine a plate in front of us on a table. On the plate, there’s a lemon. She said to pick up the lemon and cut it in half using a knife. Then, take one half and squeeze it into your mouth. If you do this exercise correctly, you’ll start to salivate as if you’re actually tasting the sourness. This shows that our subconscious mind doesn’t know the difference between what’s real and what’s imagined. So, be mindful of what you think and say about yourself.

🌟 Ready to Level Up Your DSA Game? 🌟 A while back, I had this dream of forming a team to tackle Data Structures & Algorithms together. Fast forward to now—it’s not just me anymore! I’ve teamed up with two brilliant friends, Ruth and Sifen, and in collaboration with Blue Nile Dev, we’re launching something bigger: a full-on community to learn and grow through DSA 🌱✨ We’ve crafted a curated roadmap that’s perfect for beginners and intermediates, and we’re so excited to get started. Whether you're just setting out or sharpening your skills—we’ve got you. 👉 All you need to do is register, and we’ll group you based on your level. Let’s build, solve, and support each other all the way! 🛣 Check the Roadmap HERE 🔗 Register HERE Let’s make coding less lonely and more legendary :) @aydus_journal

If you’re looking to verify Telebirr or CBE receipts without registering as a business, you can check out this open-source project @LeulZenebe1 built: 👉 https://github.com/Vixen878/verifier-api API DOC - https://verify.leul.et/docs It scrapes and extracts payment data from Telebirr pages and CBE receipts To make it work for your setup, you’ll need to add custom matching logic in your own backend, basically compare: - the account name/number, - amount paid, with your own records to verify if a user paid you, then auto-grant them whatever service/product you're offering. by leul zenebe @LeulZenebe1
