I’ve always been fascinated by the requirement for “unification” and “a single thing” to answer all questions in the western world.

Came across this blog today and this paragraph amused me a little.

Peter Gostev of arena.ai shared his experiences generating 3d worlds today.

At times when I feel incredibly frustrated or fatigued that I feel I should just become a recluse, I think of someone like David Attenborough.

One of Descartes’ foundational contributions to Philosophy is cogito, ergo sum which translates to “I think, therefore I am”.

Life is incredibly rich!

Cory Doctorow termed this word in 2022.

I read this fascinating post by Armin Ronacher on the perils of using agents.

I’ve been enjoying my break from work and using this time to overwhelmingly use LLMs for writing code, learn how others use them and explore what my thoughts are.

TIL about Hinton’s Paradox where Geoffrey Hinton’s prediction in 2016 that we won’t have any more radiologists in 5 years isn’t just true but also that we have now more radiologists than ever.

Adam Wiggins, the founder of Heroku announced today that he’ll be researching on how to combat the information overload that we all have to deal with on a day to day basis as part of his time at Ink & Switch.

Admittedly, this is controversial but I’ll die on this hill, nevertheless.

The first casualty to agent driven development is Tailwind which is laying off 75% of its workforce since traffic to its docs have reduced, in spite of it being the most prominent CSS framework.

I love talking to LLMs to understand my worldview and there have been instances in the past year where I’ve had the LLM literally roast, critique and challenge me with interesting conversations.

Everyone knows that LLMs are inherently non-deterministic and harnesses, MCPs, RAG, skills etc. all try to paper over this.

I love all the wonderful stuff that people share on socials about what they built over the holidays.

This tweet from Andrej Karpathy has been doing the rounds and I felt this quoted tweet from rahulgs was on-point based on my experience working with LLMs.

Every interaction with the LLM to generate tokens requires subsequent prompting for tweaking.

After ~4 years, I wrapped up my time at Stripe just before this year’s BFCM.

Of course, everyone is talking about this tweet by Andrej.

What matters?

I recently got an Elgato HD60X from FB Marketplace in the intent that I’ll be streaming more.

After about 8.5 years, I visited Tiruvannamalai again during my visit to Chennai in 2025.

After ~5 years, I decided to move on from Salesforce last week.

I turned 33 earlier this year.

As with anything else in the world, change is a constant.

Where do I even start?

I’m proud to admit that I’m bitten by the Rich Hickey bug.

I recently had the opportunity to catch a series on HBO.

If you’re a cricket fan, you better had been keeping track of what happened at the World Cup this year.

I take public transport to work.

This was a book by Haruki Murakami in conversation with Seiji Ozawa, the former director and conductor at the Boston Conservatory of Music.

The article talks about how to better use the pomodoro technique for productivity.

Finally mustered some courage and got over my laziness to create a post on a statically hosted blog.

As far as finance is concerned, bankruptcy is probably the lowest point in a company or an individual’s life.

The title of this post is part of a quote by the famous 13th century Persian poet, Rumi.

Over the last few years, I feel the word “blog” and “blogging” are being slowly phased out thanks to the explosion of social media (and the associated ADHD).

I’m a huge fan of Spotify and have been using the Premium feature quite regularly since December 2014.

A couple of days before, I was perusing through my Feedly as part of my daily routine and an article about Idea Debt came up through Hacker News.

Occasionally, people stump into a perilous pit only to be surrounded by pessimistic and dismissive emotions.

The festival of Bhogi (போகி) in South India is celebrated on the last day of the month mArgazhi (மார்கழி).

I happened to come across T.

I recently subscribed to Netflix for the sake of House of Cards and one of the first videos that I saw was a TED talk by Dr.

Of late, I feel people have waned away from blogging thanks to more contemporary social networks some of whom insist on limiting you with 140 characters.

The long weekend spent in Santa Barbara bore fruit, thanks to my pal, Karthick Santhanam.

Thanks to one of my friends, I got my Google+ invite on June 30th.

Greetings!

Ever since I started watching cricket (the 1996 world cup), I’ve always dreamt of India winning it.

All these years you wanted to watch cricket, but you had exams of all sorts scheduled perfectly alongside the matches and all that you can do is peep in occasionally to watch that bottom bar for the score and if you overstay your welcome in to the TV room,
