@ashokjjr IT wing - Political campaigning has become a data science problem . It was facebook few years ago in the US which influenced polls and instagram for us now.
For decades I avoided a particular brand of movies, but now that's going to play aloud in the streets . Hope this is a blip on the way to a long transformation that's over due.
If you are a software engineer "experiencing some degree of mental health crisis", now hear this, because I've been coding for 50 years since the days of punched cards and I have a salutary kick in your ass to deliver.
Get over yourself. Every previous "programming is obsolete" panic has been a bust, and this one's going to be too.
The fundamental problem of mismatch between the intentions in human minds and the specifications that a computer can interpret hasn't gone away just because now you can do a lot of your programming in natural language to an LLM.
Systems are still complicated. This shit is still difficult. The need for people who specialize in bridging that gap isn't going to go away.
As usual, the answer is: upskill yourself and adapt. If a crusty old fart like me can do it, you can too.
Subscribed to claude code in the new year, regret not doing it in the year end when they had no limits. I am a convert for LLM driven coding now. The speed compensates for the occasional mishaps, you still have the leash to control diversions.

@ethanlim@grok what are some best practices in doing the perspective correction that's done while processing a receipt in this demo. Can you point to some reference python code?
New blog post.
In the era of LLMs, what does learning look like? What happens when are overconfident in our understanding due to AI sycophancy? Is it even useful to use LLMs for education without outsourcing our thinking?

Bison's strength and weakness both came from his Dad. This movie is an anthem for those who want to rise past the obstacles. The world has enough good people, keep being present, you will spot each other.@mari_selvaraj 's craft is as good as the story he brings within.
I am blown away by the ferocity of filmmaking in #BisonKaalamadan written and directed by @mari_selvaraj!
Astutely detailed with rich lived experiences and powerful performances in a sports biopic done right.
Dhurv Vikram and Pasupathi are exemplary as the father-sun duo.
The father’s phone call asking the son to continue playing—even when the odds are completely against him—personally inspired me. I was so moved I paused and sat in silence soaking the courage it gave me. Felt the same when the father fights the cops to let his son go play kabbadi for India. People we love can carry us through moments we’re not sure we can survive.
Mari, I doff my hat to you, brother!
Bravo @beemji, Sameer Nair, Deepak Seigal and Aditi Anand for a great production!
Watch it now on Netflix!
@DavidDeutschOxf Outgrowing your authorities is not betrayal.
It is progress.
You aren’t supposed to keep your old beliefs.
You’re supposed to replace them with better explanations.
