Random thoughts and ideas

  • The LFG 🚀 project

    I am building an open-source software-dev agent. Couldn’t think of a better name than LFG. Goal is simple, up the world to get things done.

  • What is AI after?And the aftermath.

    Hiten Shah had this interesting take on X But I don’t think this is true. AI is coming after everything – mediocre, high-quality, and everything in between. Because AI can produce high-quality work and at speed. Speed plus quality is a deadly combo. So what’s the incentive for a company to pay a premium to…

About me

I am a Software programmer by trade and choice. I love building software products and tinkering with new technologies. I have over 12 years of experience in the technology space – from building apps to managing cross platform engineering teams.

My primary areas of interest are freelancing, cloud infra and software development automation. In a way all three tie into each other especially if you want to build functional products, so I don’t consider them to be distinct fields.

My go-to programming language is Python – it is so eloquent and feels like you are writing poetry.

If you think about it, Programming is such a magical concept. We literally invented a portal to talk to inanimate objects – Silicon. We instruct and command silicon to obey our orders.

The other topics that interest me are history, Hindu philosophy (primarily the Upanishads and non-dualism), consciousness and the intricacies of mind.
