With AI, we ask, "Does this work?" and stop there. We should also ask, "When does this stop working?"

[Deedy @deedydas]

Most software engineers are facing an identity crisis bordering on depression.

As CTOs aggressively evangelize tokenmaxxing, a class divide ensues.

The lazy. The lazy push code. They don't write it. They don't manually test it. They don't even read it. They're on autopilot. See Jira ticket, prompt for task, submit code. Many of them are barely on their computer the whole day. A comment on the PR asking why they did this? The lazy ask AI. A Slack message? The lazy ask AI. Need to prepare for standup? The lazy ask AI. As long as it sounds enough like them and isn't detected. Some of the lazy are even overemployed, and work multiple jobs. The lazy smart ones get away with this, and even rewarded. After all, software engineering for the lazy is just a dance to convince your colleagues you're smart and hard working.

The craftsmen. The craftsmen are tired. Very tired. 15 PRs in queue. Slack blowing up. The entire burden of review falls on the craftsman. The burden of understanding. They try. They work their way through the code, thoughtfully commenting to improve what ships. The response? A lazy: "That's a clever idea! You're absolutely right." with an incorrect change. It's fine, the craftsman says. I can fix them. They write a doc urging his colleagues to be better. The next day? 20,000 line PR to review. Day after day, their workload grows. Bugs seep into production. No one seems to care. Another round of AI is thrown at it. Their animosity to their colleagues rises. Eventually, they give up. It's just not what it used to be. The craft they loved is dead. They eventually wake up, a lazy.

This isn't all companies. Many companies are genuinely more productive, adopt the right set of principles and practices around AI development and have highly talented teams that trust each other. It tends to happen in bigger companies that are 10+yrs old with a higher talent variance. But it happens. A lot.

RCB RCB….Congratulations Double back to back IPL Champions. Namma dodda Simhagulu roared loudly and made us all very proud. Very well done you beauties.

[Vijay Mallya @TheVijayMallya]

Many Many congratulations to RCB namma dodda Simhagulu for an emphatic victory in Dharamshala tonight. You roared loud like the Lions of Bengaluru and roared into the IPL final as defending champions.

[Vijay Mallya @TheVijayMallya]

Congratulations RCB. The Lions of Bengaluru roar loudly with the fastest chase of a 200 + score. Onward and Upward.

[Sumanth @sumanthd17]

It’s match day. It’s RCB day. It’s defending champions day. It’s a Saturday.

What a fuckin beautiful day!

[Arpit Bhayani @arpit_bhayani]

With agentic slop, we are trading software reliability for shipping velocity and calling it progress. It isn't. Systems are more fragile than ever, and engineers building them no longer trust their code to hold up in real-world edge cases.

I am pro-AI, but this will backfire - big time.

Sarvam AI showcased at #IndiaAIImpactSummit2026 testifies why tomorrow belongs to India. Providing cutting-edge AI solutions in 22 Indian languages it ensures technology reaches every hand paving way for Modi Ji's vision of Viksit Bharat where technology is trusted ally of citizen.

[Aditya Dhavala @dvs_aditya]

Let’s understand what this team did.

Meta has approximately 600,000+ GPUs. Their most junior researcher can reserve 4000 GPUs for tinkering.

This team got 4000 GPUs for training, and they still pulled it off. They have proved to the world that India CAN.

I keep coming back to this picture, because despite very humble beginnings, ISRO today is an institution which is globally best at what they do.

This team has started with global best in its weight class. I’m excited to where we will go.

Thank you team!
