Staff Software Engineer @thredup. Building Agents at Scale. Prev: @iiita_official

An agent is only as good as it's user who commands it. You may be using a great agent, but if the user is poor at giving command, your agent will suck.

[Arpit Bhayani @arpit_bhayani]

a model is only as good as the harness it runs on. you may be using a great model, but if the harness is poor, your agent will suck.

11:30 am to 1 pm is best gym time. Little to no rush at the gym. I have already finished some work and go to gym for no screen and then lunch and afternoon sleep. Best unemployed life.

[Sumit Behal @sumitkbehal]

The official gym hours for unemployable individuals are 11 AM to 4 PM

How could @claudeai not follow @github outage lead. Two of the most unreliable services in recent time

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

Was just setting up origin. It is too tightly integrated with Cursor to my liking. I do not want my code on one particular agent platform. Interesting to see how it evolves.

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

We def need more transparency on @github outages. They are def at stress with AI agents pushing commits at scale, would be interesting to understand what's not working.

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

What's up @github ?

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

Navi Mumbai is def among the top places to live.

[Sumit Behal @sumitkbehal]

Metro cities in India are designed to give you a low quality of life at a high cost of living

Worst Value : Delhi, Gurgaon, Mumbai
Best Value : Coimbatore, Trivandrum
Budget Living : Lucknow, Kochi, Patna
Premium Value : Navi Mumbai, Pune

This is crazy thinking USA’s business moat in middle east is security to GCC nations

Happy Independence Day 🇮🇳 Early years of our democracy, long way to go ahead 🚀

[The Tatva @thetatvaindia]

🇮🇳For the very first time in history, India's national song - VANDE MATARAM is rendered at Red Fort on the Independence Day after flag hoisting

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

@DasNripanka Messages usually flow from multiple channels like web ui, Slack, MCP etc to runtime. Idempotency is enforced at runtime entry before it is routed to harness of choice. LLM is selection is via LLM proxy. All harness connects to LLM proxy and choice model as per request.

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

We at thredUP have been building AgentK Platform since last 18 months. I started with langchain back in Jan 2025 and now we have complete agent building platform agnostic of LLM provider, harness. Scaled to serve tens of agents and thousands of requests securely daily at thredUP. We have a wide variety of agents like our AI Engineer helping everyone, Pricing agent etc deployed on the platform. Got a shoutout at presentation yesterday. Happy to learn more about your experiments on building complete agent platform.

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

Eventually all SAAS tech companies are going to sell agents. There is no moat at all.

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

Best no BS car. Worth every penny for comfort and reliability it provides.

[Anupam Gupta @b50]

What a car, the Innova. It's the inverse of the Maruti. If Maruti understood budget and utility early on, Innova cracked luxury and utility. At another level. They have no competition. Competition tried but the Innova is just awesome. Crazy.

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

@elonmusk Leading AI, Space & Robotics in next 10 years. Crazy to think single person having so much power and influence on the world though he deserves every bit of it

[SpaceXAI @SpaceXAI]

Introducing Grok 4.6.

It delivers frontier intelligence and is a significant improvement over Grok 4.5 at the same price.

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

Even the mighty has fallen. This was my go to card for tax payment for years. Only Atlas is standing tall amongst all devaluation.

[Ashwin @PointsPro]

❌ Amex Platinum Travel brutal devaluation!

Wow, just as we thought the 4L to 7L itself was bad, they want to nerf the card completely.

From September 10th,

Let's not analyse the nitty-gritty and come straight to the point.

Spend Rs 7L to get 10k MR points + Rs 20k Taj

Plus Rs 5,900 as fees, which isn't waived.

Sadly can't justify it anymore.

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

Food and Stays are insanely expensive in major cities even with world standard. I find cheaper stay alternative in Fremont, CA than in Mumbai. We need more supply of stays and quality restaurant to bring down overall cost. Currently demand is not meet at all.

[Aditya Gupta @DrAditya2935]

This thing irks me so much tbh.
I regularly travel for classes and Delhi/Mumbai and Bengaluru are so genuinely insanely expensive tbh.

And then I visit Kochi or Bhubaneshwar or Lucknow and realise what normal pricing in India should actually feel like.

Heck, I kid you not - Tokyo is genuinely less expensive than Delhi.
I’ll spend less in a day in Tokyo on food and going out than in Delhi for similar food/eateries.

Sell NVIDIA DGX Spark in Bulk 💸

[Josh Cohenzadeh @jshchnz]

How long until Costco starts selling AI tokens in bulk?

I want some Kirkland Signature models

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

Unpopular opinion: This is exact opposite of how you should use AI. In some cases this might be useful to get work done but making this as default in claude memory is like shutting down horizon of exploration. AI is so much rich when combined with exploration to get things done.

[Kr$na @krishdotdev]

Pasted this into Claude’s memory and now i’m getting 10x better results by opus 5.

[Chaitanya Yadav @believec_me]

One more plausible explanation is economy, Sri Lanka runs on tourism while India is wildly diverse in economic activity. Take an example of Goa, which is tourist state is much more cleaner and tourist friendly compared to other places in the country which doesn't depend on it.

[Indian Tintin @IndianTintin_]

India's filthiness is a mystery. It is not Hinduism because Nepal, North Sri Lanka with Tamil Hindus, Bali, Trinidad, Guyana are all relatively clean. It is not AASI because AASImaxxed Sri Lanka is relatively clean. It is not lack of stability because Lanka had a civil war and is cleaner. It isn't poverty because Maharashtra is the same GDP per capita as Sri Lanka with similar inequality, yet Lanka is cleaner. What explains Indian garbage and urine strewn outdoors?
