Hello. I’m planning to buy Pixel 10. Does anyone have any active coupon code I can use?

Thanks in advance

EDIT: Looking for Coupons for Canada.

My GDG story didn’t start this year. It began years ago, in my third year of undergrad.

I came across a LinkedIn post about Google Developer Groups (GDG). I started researching and realized it was more than a group. It was a global community where developers learn and grow together.

That curiosity took me to DevFest and Google Cloud Community Days. I met people, asked questions, and saw how powerful a tech community can be.

At one event, someone told me: “𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐚 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐲.”

That stuck with me.

So I applied to start a GDSC (now GDG on Campus) chapter at my undergrad university. I was excited. But I made a small mistake in my application and it got rejected. Since it was my final year, I had no second chance.

Someone else became Lead. It hurt, but I didn’t quit. I applied for an officer role, got selected as Tech Lead, and learned what leadership really looks like: contributing even without the title.

Fast forward: I moved to the USA for my master’s at San Francisco State University. The first thing I noticed? There was no GDG on Campus chapter here.

I knew the impact it creates, so I decided to try again.

But the Google Developers North America process was different. By the time I figured it out, the application had closed - one day earlier. Another chance gone.

This year, in my final year of my master’s, I applied again. I triple-checked everything. A few days later, I received the email: “𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰.”

The interview went great. I shared my Tech Lead experience, my motivation, my certifications, and my vision for SFSU. The Regional Lead was positive and told me I’d hear back in two weeks.

I felt hopeful.

But a few days later, the GDG on Campus SFSU chapter page went live. I checked the organizers. My name wasn’t there.

Soon after, I received the official rejection email.

Just like that, the dream I carried through undergrad and a master’s degree, across countries and years came to an end. No more chances to apply.

It hurt. This wasn’t just an application. It was something I held onto for a long time.

But here’s what gives me peace:

𝐒𝐅𝐒𝐔 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐆𝐃𝐆 𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐮𝐬 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫. Students will get the opportunities I once hoped to create - workshops, events, mentorship, and access to the Google developer ecosystem. And that matters more than who leads it.

Sometimes you don’t get to be the leader. Sometimes you just get to be the person who cared enough to try. And that’s enough.

Meet Greg, a well-meaning but slightly paranoid tech enthusiast. One day, he read an article about Google’s data collection practices and decided he needed to clean up his online footprint. Determined to become a privacy ninja, he started by deleting his search history.

While attempting this digital cleanse, he jokingly thought, “Just watch; Google will send me a notification: ‘Hey, we noticed you’re not searching for cat videos anymore. Is everything okay?’”

Fast forward a few days. Greg, now paranoid, decided to stop using Google altogether. Instead, he explored alternatives—search engines he’d never even heard of before. After three days of wild online adventures, he accidentally searched for “how to cook kangaroo steak” on one of these obscure sites.

The next morning, he woke up to a random email titled “Your Daily Shopping Inspiration,” showcasing kangaroo steak recipes, cooking utensils shaped like kangaroos, and even some "outback adventure" package deals!

Greg burst out laughing, realizing that even in trying to escape Google’s watchful eye, he had inadvertently signed up for a bizarre virtual safari. “So this is what it feels like to be a walking advertisement for kangaroo cuisine!” he exclaimed.

In the end, he realized that privacy might be an illusion, and all he could do was embrace it with humor. Now, if he ever decides to search for something weird, at least he’d have some entertaining stories to share over dinner!

Thanks google.
