Not really a huge surprise. AI chat is a more explicit way to learn about your private preferences than search or likes ever were. This will soon be monetized with ads. theregister.com/2025/08/18/opi…

It's not backed by any actual evaluations yet, but I believe #Lisp might be specially suited for GenAI based code generation. Looking to verify this with some experiments of my own.

We're using LLMs wrong! They excel at language, not knowledge. Yet we treat them as oracles of truth. Result? Systems that sound authoritative but fail when reliability matters. Here's a design principle that makes AI both powerful and trustworthy: sauravdhungana.com/why-llms-shoul…

It's really interesting how the AI world is freaked out by a paper that shows these models don't actually "think" and "reason". Of course they don't, they are pattern recognition machines -- although very good ones at that. 🤷‍♂️ #illusionofthinking #apple #ai

Is there any data / study on salary ranges for tech engineers in Nepal? Is there even such a thing as a "market rate" here?

While everyone is raving about #MCP. It's also important to remember security and privacy should not be overlooked. This article goes into what it's missing. blog.sshh.io/p/everything-w…

To all #PostgreSQL users out there. PgConf 2025 is happening in Kathmandu on May 5-6. If you want to attend, speak, sponsor, please go to the link below. It has been my default database for many years, and I'm sure it's used widely in Nepal and beyond. pgconf.org.np

I'm looking to form a small, talent-dense team of engineers focused on working at the intersection of #dataprivacy (encryption), #AI (both ML & GenAI), and #systems. This is primary for Nepal (or those willing to work on Nepalese salaries). Feel free to DM me.

If #AI is going to write most of the code going forward. Does it mean it’s also time to rethink what a #programminglanguage should look like. May be there’ll be highly optimized languages everywhere that humans don’t necessarily can read.

LLMs like GPT get all the hype recently, but it was encoder models, especially #BERT models, that brought about the modern AI revolution. They are practical, faster, smaller, faster and task specific. Excited to find new things happening there too. huggingface.co/blog/modernbert

this. the next generation may have severely reduced critical thinking & problem solving abilities sadly imo.

I believe the future of #AI is going to determined by the story around #dataprivacy for than anything else. Imagine a future where you aren’t just the “product” of the apps you are using but get to monetize it by just being you. That’s the future I believe in.
