'Some moments stay in your heart forever': Google techie's lesson in life and class wins internet

‘Old memories die hard’, goes an old adage. Reminiscing about one such moment years ago, a Google engineer, who once taught coding to students in his college, expressed satisfaction at seeing that class of juniors make it to Amazon. Raj Vikramaditya, who operates by the name ‘Striver’ on the microblogging site X, shared the photograph which he adds ‘will be etched in his heart forever.’ The Google techie expressed happiness at all those first benchers finally making it to Amazon as software engineers.

Sharing the underlying memory linked to the incident, Vikramaditya recalled how the power kicked off in the middle of the coding class but since everyone insisted on continuing the class, they got their flashlights on. Additionally, he shared a screenshot of the comment section on LinkedIn in which the then ‘first benchers’ had commented with details of their current organisations visible next to their names. The exchange shows engineers indulging in a memory play.

I never thought that the first benchers would be in Amazon ♥️

Picture from a class I took when I was in second year. The power went off in the middle of a coding class, everyone got their flashlights on.

Some moments stay in your heart forever, this was one of them
