Newly joined OutDefine - let's connect!
gm folks!

Nishit this side. I've recently joined the OutDefine community so want to take this opportunity to introduce myself.

About me (TL;DR) - I'm a passionate millennial marketer with 6 yrs of experience in Web2 and Web3 spaces who have helped over 3,000+ Indian & International brands with their end-to-end GTM strategies. Some examples include but are not limited to Facebook, Adobe, Bentley Motors, Flipkart, Disney Accelerator, Starbucks, Robinhood Wallet and Nubank.

Now time for the longer version ;)

I have a proven track record of success in helping partners and clients achieve their business goals via effective brand positioning and efficient GTM strategy.

In my previous full-time role at Polygon Labs (an Ethereum L2 scaling solution), I was responsible for developing and executing end-to-end GTM strategies for a wide portfolio of over 2,500+ partners and clients. They belong to a variety of industries, including finance, luxury, sports, e-commerce, edtech, and fashion. I have a deep understanding of the Web2 and Web3 ecosystems, and I am skilled in using a variety of marketing channels combined with AI to reach and engage target audiences.

Next.js will be dominating the Javascript ecosystem or even end the Javascript framework war?
As a Next.js fanboy, I am very glad to see the recent updates from the Next.js team.
To look back on updates of Next.js...
v9.3 introduced SSG(Static Server Generation) and v9.5 introduced ISR(Incremental Static Regeneration) which is a really great solution for showing dynamic website by static pages regenerated in the background by traffic comes.
v12.1 introduced on-demand ISR which is a great match with CMS by triggering regeneration when contents change.
With v13, they introduced a new App Router built on React Server Components. The App Router is a new paradigm for building applications using React's latest features.

The updates includes new project structure, new routings like parallel routes and intercepting routes, server actions(Alpha).
But probably the key update must be the fact that we can use RSC in the app router and all the components are server components by default.

In fact, RSC(React server component) has been introduced couple of years ago, Dec 2020.
It was still in experimental phase and also there were couple of additional steps to use RSC.
But with the release of v13, you can now use React Server Components without any configuration.
Zero bundle size, accessing server data sources such as microservices, functions, databases, etc, better performance, you can enjoy them now with v13 - what are you waiting for? go try it.

Of course, there are many competitors like Remix, Astro and they are growing its popularity.
But with over seven years of history and widespread adoption, Next.js has established itself as a leading choice for building web applications.
In my point of view, it won't be changed easily and it's the same reason why React is still dominating the web development although it's proven that frameworks like Svelte, Solid, Preact is much faster and a good alternative.

Any other Next.js fans here? Would like to hear your opinions...

What are your favorite Crypto projects (other than Outdefine) and why?
I'm always on the lookout for new and exciting crypto projects, and I'm curious to hear what everyone else is following. Here are a few of my favorites:

- Bitcoin (BTC): The OG of crypto, Bitcoin is still the most popular and widely-accepted cryptocurrency.
- Giddy (GDDY): Giddy is a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform that makes it easy to buy, sell, and earn crypto. They are making crypto so easy that your Grandma could do it!

What are your favorite crypto projects? Let me know in the comments below!

I'm also interested in hearing about projects that are still in the early stages. I'm always on the lookout for the next big thing, and I'm sure there are some great projects out there that I haven't heard of yet.

So, what are your favorite crypto projects? Let me know in the comments below!

The future of blockchain
Scalability: One of the main challenges for blockchain is scalability. As the technology evolves, there is ongoing research and development focused on improving scalability to handle a larger number of transactions per second. Solutions like sharding, layer 2 protocols, and consensus algorithm improvements are being explored to address this issue.

Interoperability: Interoperability between different blockchain networks and platforms is an area of focus. Efforts are underway to develop standards and protocols that allow different blockchains to communicate and share data seamlessly. This would enable increased collaboration and the integration of different blockchain systems.

Privacy and Confidentiality: Enhancing privacy features within blockchain networks is a significant area of research. Several projects are exploring techniques such as zero-knowledge proofs, homomorphic encryption, and secure multi-party computation to enable private and confidential transactions on public or consortium blockchains.

Integration with Emerging Technologies: Blockchain technology is being integrated with other emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), and edge computing. These integrations have the potential to create innovative solutions and enable new business models across various industries.

Tokenization of Assets: The tokenization of real-world assets, such as real estate, art, and intellectual property, is gaining traction. Blockchain enables fractional ownership, increased liquidity, and efficient transfer of ownership for these assets. This trend is likely to continue, opening up new investment opportunities and disrupting traditional asset markets.

Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs): Several countries are exploring the implementation of central bank digital currencies using blockchain technology. CBDCs have the potential to transform traditional financial systems, improve cross-border transactions, and provide financial inclusion to underserved populations.

Governance and Regulation: As blockchain technology evolves, there will be an increased focus on governance models and regulatory frameworks to ensure security, consumer protection, and compliance. Governments and regulatory bodies are actively studying and developing frameworks to govern blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies.

Sustainability and Energy Efficiency: The energy consumption associated with blockchain networks, particularly proof-of-work consensus algorithms, has raised concerns. Future developments will likely focus on improving energy efficiency and exploring alternative consensus mechanisms with reduced environmental impact.

Let's talk math!
Hi everyone! I just joined the Outdefine platform yesterday. I wanted to share some of the posts I've written on Medium. My latest post summarises the courses I took at the MGS23 conference. Type theory and domain theory are essential in formal verification. This is important when we want mathematical guarantees of our program's correctness instead of partial coverage via unit tests. Also, category theory is a model (and syntax) of many structures involving composability, so it is worth learning too.

Here is the link to the medium article: https://medium.com/@haliq12/what-ive-learnt-at-midlands-graduate-school-in-the-foundations-of-computer-science-a9881e8c30eb

Feel free to reach out if you'd like to talk more about it! :)
