@AbrahamOkah2 Is this role open to India location? I can work in CET timezone.

@gabegreenberg I love the JD TBH. Pretty exciting and challenging. Would love to take this on. Been doing something similar from the last couple of months. Email: [email protected]

[Mansoor Khan @mkchirps]

@gabegreenberg @gabegreenberg seems interesting! Applied.

Big fan of AI but not a big fan of AI in interviewing/screening candidates.

A bot cannot judge the enthusiasm, the aspirations of a human.

Thoughts?

New supply chain attack this time for npm axios, the most popular HTTP client library with 300M weekly downloads.

Scanning my system I found a use imported from googleworkspace/cli from a few days ago when I was experimenting with gmail/gcal cli. The installed version (luckily) resolved to an unaffected 1.13.5, but the project dependency is not pinned, meaning that if I did this earlier today the code would have resolved to latest and I'd be pwned.

It's possible to personally defend against these to some extent with local settings e.g. release-age constraints, or containers or etc, but I think ultimately the defaults of package management projects (pip, npm etc) have to change so that a single infection (usually luckily fairly temporary in nature due to security scanning) does not spread through users at random and at scale via unpinned dependencies.

What is going on @claudeai ? Still down after more than 8 hours.

Sonnet is up but Opus is still down

Claude is down and so are the developers 😜

Happy Friday!

Claude Code and other services are taxed 18%, so $100 service -> $118.
Government shud consider waiving taxes on such services, a practical way to show that the govt truly cares about the IT industry in India

@claudeai has gotten worse to the point of being unusable since the last update on #macos
Why charge a premium for a product that seems experimental? Why not make it free instead?

RAG is not just one technique, it is an entire ecosystem of intelligence.

From context-aware assistants to domain-specific systems, here are 16 types of RAG models shaping the next wave of AI innovation -

1. Standard RAG
The foundation of all RAG systems - combines retrieval and generation for question answering and knowledge synthesis.

2. Agentic RAG
Empowers AI agents to retrieve and act autonomously, perfect for assistants that need dynamic, tool-based reasoning.

3. Graph RAG
Uses knowledge graphs for relational reasoning - ideal for expert systems in law, medicine, and semantic search.

4. Modular RAG
Breaks retrieval, reasoning, and generation into independent components - enabling collaborative, scalable AI workflows.

5. Memory-Augmented RAG
Adds persistent external memory for context retention, powering long-term chatbots and personalized experiences.

6. Multi-Modal RAG
Processes text, images, and audio together - perfect for video summarization, captioning, and multi-modal AI tools.

7. Federated RAG
Enables privacy-preserving retrieval from decentralized sources, used in healthcare and secure enterprise systems.

8. Streaming RAG
Performs real-time retrieval and generation, ideal for financial dashboards, live feeds, and social media monitoring.

9. ODQA RAG (Open-Domain QA)
Handles large, diverse datasets - ideal for search engines and intelligent virtual assistants.

10. Contextual Retrieval RAG
Maintains session-level awareness, great for conversational AI and customer support chatbots.

11. Knowledge-Enhanced RAG
Integrates structured domain data, useful for legal, educational, and professional knowledge applications.

12. Domain-Specific RAG
Custom-tailored for specific industries - like finance, healthcare, or legal analytics.

13. Hybrid RAG
Combines multiple retrieval approaches, bridging structured and unstructured data for high precision.

14. Self-RAG
Introduces self-reflection to refine its own answers, enabling AI models to fact-check and improve reasoning autonomously.

15. HyDE RAG (Hypothetical Document Embeddings)
Generates hypothetical documents to guide retrieval, excellent for complex or niche query contexts.

16. Recursive / Multi-Step RAG
Performs multiple retrieval-generation loops, enabling advanced problem-solving and reasoning chains.

From simple retrievals to self-improving AI reasoning loops, RAG is evolving fast.
Which type do you think will dominate enterprise AI systems in 2026?

@claudeai what’s wrong with the latest Mac update? The prompt does nothing just keeps in processing.
On further prompts, it says Failed to load session.

#Claude #claudedesktop #macos

[Mansoor Khan @mkchirps]

@claudeai the IDE stopped after the latest update on Mac Tahoe
Claude for Mac version 1.0.2768

I just see processing icons and nothing happens after the prompt.

What’s happening?

Why is there no transparency in terms of model usage in @cursor_ai ?

"You've hit your usage limit for <model>" but what then?

Will you reset the limit after some time? Am I done for the day/month/year? What?

[GitHub @github]

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) was born open. 🌐

GitHub has been there since the early days, contributing servers, registry tooling, and steering committee guidance.

Now, MCP is officially moving to the Linux Foundation.

This is a massive moment for agents, tools, and the future of AI development. 🚀 We break down what's next. ⬇️
