Sachin Tendulkar facing Brett Lee wasn't just a contest, it was one of the purest tests cricket had to offer. Blistering pace against calm, unshakeable technique. Every over felt like a duel, every boundary earned the hard way. Two greats of the game, pushing each other to their absolute best. 🏏

Sachin Tendulkar vs Waqar Younis. One of cricket's greatest pace vs class battles.
A young Sachin faced Waqar's raw pace on his very first Test tour, bloodied nose and all. He didn't back down.
Years later, Sachin went on to dominate that same pace attack on the biggest stages.
Two legends. One rivalry that defined an era. 🏏🔥

How do machines made of silicon come to understand human language? Are you a non-STEM person who is curious to know how LLMs work without any math and coding jargon? Are you someone who wants to understand the big picture and the underlying geometry behind language that LLMs utilise without getting bogged down by scary looking equations and algorithms? Viola, here is my latest substack article specifically designed for you.

To a computer, words like "bank", "river", or "reindeer" hold no inherent meaning; they are merely arbitrary strings of text. Before a computer can reason with language, translate, or generate stories, it must first convert raw, unstructured words into a format that it can perform math on: numbers. But simply assigning a serial numerical ID to every word in the dictionary turns out to be a mathematical dead end.
Language is not a flat, one-dimensional list of unconnected words ; it is a rich, interconnected web of meanings, contexts, analogies, and subtle shades of emotion. To bridge this gap, modern artificial intelligence relies on a profound paradigm shift: transforming words into points on a multi-dimensional geometric space.
In my latest substack article which is the first of two in a series, I write about :
1. How Large Language Models break down raw text into chunks of units of meaning (called tokens)
2. Why flat numbers fail to capture the multi-faceted semantic relationships between words
3. How neural networks discover the hidden geometry of human thought.
In my next article in this series, we will unpack the inner mechanics of the Transformer which is the architecture that acts as the engine that powers all LLMs today. The fundamentals for understanding Transformers though is here in this article. Do read and let me know how it is !

"Walk the Talk" will now be tested on the ground.
HIRWA welcomes the Hon'ble Municipal Commissioner's "Pedestrian First" initiative.
The real test, however, is whether these directions will be implemented uniformly across Mumbai.
Since April 2026, we have repeatedly requested action against the illegal weekly vegetable market systematically occupying the pedestrian footpaths of the declared No Hawking Zone on 90 ft Swapna Nagari Road, Mulund (W).
Despite representations, meetings, MARG complaints, RTI and a First Appeal, the encroachment continues every Tuesday.
Will the BMC officials now truly walk the talk?

📢 Update on BMC Commissioner's orders to keep Mumbai's footpaths encroachment-free:
A day after directing civic officials to clear encroachments from footpaths across Mumbai, BMC Commissioner @AshwiniBhide orders strict monitoring and accountability mechanism to ensure implementation of the drive.
Details below 👇
- Assistant Commissioners will conduct daily inspections of footpaths in their wards and review daily progress reports with before-and-after photographs.
- Deputy Commissioners will carry out weekly zonal reviews and submit reports to the Additional Municipal Commissioners.
- Additional Municipal Commissioners will review the progress every 15 days.
- Commissioner has warned that any negligence, delay or failure to implement the orders will not be tolerated.
- Responsibility will be fixed on the concerned officers, who will face strict disciplinary action for any lapse.
- Officials have also been directed to prepare a priority-wise list of footpaths to ensure systematic implementation and continuous monitoring.
A detailed engineering and design directions for footpaths is issued, including:
- Removal of non-standard or uneven ramps.
- Ensuring building entrances and doors open inward within property boundaries, not onto footpaths.
- Scientific pruning of tree branches obstructing pedestrian movement.
- Construction of new footpaths only as per the prescribed standard design using M40-grade concrete.
- No use of paver blocks or stamped concrete for new footpaths.
- Removal of gaps, uneven levels and other physical obstacles to make footpaths safe and accessible for pedestrians.
Remove encroachments and free up Mumbai's footpaths - BMC Commissioner @AshwiniBhide
At a review meeting held on Friday, BMC Commissioner Ashwini Bhide directed civic officials to prioritise the removal of encroachments from footpaths across Mumbai.
As per BMC, Assistant Commissioners have been instructed to clear footpaths near schools, hospitals, railway stations, Metro stations, bus terminals and markets by removing unauthorised hawkers, illegal structures and improperly constructed ramps to make them safe and accessible for pedestrians.
Commissioner said clean and unobstructed footpaths are a hallmark of a well-functioning city, noting that nearly 50 per cent of Mumbai's residents rely on walking as part of their daily commute. She added that encouraging greater use of footpaths would improve traffic flow and help reduce pollution.
The Maharashtra CET results have sparked an unusual controversy. Students, teachers and political leaders are demanding that the top 150 rankers be asked to take the examination again under strict supervision to restore confidence in the admission process.

Next 48 hours mostly dry weather will prevail & few passing showers. Friday onwards heavy/extremely heavy rains over North of Maharashtra may temporarily increase rains over Mumbai surroundings. #MumbaiRains
