“Peak Bengaluru Moment”: One Bengaluru guy recently saw something that encapsulates the bustle of the city. Sometimes the most inspirational moments happen in the midst of an average day. Vaibhav Gupta, an X user, was riding late at night when he observed something strange about his Rapido driver when he was waiting at a traffic light. The rider seated on the bike, the phone shining on the handlebars, and the calm of an evening in Bengaluru all seemed normal from the rear. However, there was no music, movie, or navigation playing on the screen. The rider, on the other hand, was listening to a course on coding.

Gupta was curious, so he questioned him about it. The rider’s response shocked him even more. He said that he was already working as a developer and was getting ready to change careers. The experience was shared on X by Gupta, who wrote, “My @rapidobikeapp rider was listening to a Node.js lesson yesterday. He informed me that he is already a developer and is getting ready for a transition when I asked. For me, it was an insane struggle and a @peakbengaluru experience.

With over 132K views, the post immediately attracted attention as fans commended the rider’s commitment, diligence, and spirit of late-night study. Many referred to it as the ideal representation of Bengaluru’s unwavering will to expand.

“I detest Bangalore because of this cringe. A person said, “This pretentious hustle and grind makes me cringe, and I also identify more with that culture than I do with it.” “I believed that developers need human connection to ensure that their brains function correctly. Even financial people do this to prevent burnouts,” a second user said. “Well done, although I would advise against becoming sidetracked while driving. A third person remarked, “Both are in danger.”

Riding while learning Node.js? This dude multitasks to a whole new level. I can’t even respond to SMS when I’m out and about. Honor the commitment,” a fourth user said. “Why do you put up with such fools? While riding, what will he comprehend? And endangering the life of others,” a fifth user stated. Anotheruser said, “He needs to take care of his execution context.”
