The best engineers I know don't ask: What technology should we use? They ask: What problem are we solving? What happens when it fails? How will we know? How will we recover? That's system design. That's production engineering. And that's what I am going to keep sharing here.

Personal MBA

The biggest risk from AI isn't bad code. It's code nobody understands. I call it Cognitive Debt. It doesn't live in your codebase. It lives in your team. Fewer people know why the code was written. Fewer people understand how it works. Fewer people can say what breaks when you touch it. Most teams are already deep in it. They just don't have a name for it.

A New Start!!

If you want to mostly do what everyone else does you may get mostly the results that everyone gets. Ask what you want to get instead of asking what everyone does. Then figure out the implements to get you there. Learn from others but avoid the temptations to imitate others.

Wish you all a very Healthy, Happy and Successful New Year 2023!! 🎉🥳

Wish you and your loved ones a very Happy, Healthy and Prosperous Diwali!!! 🪔🪔🎇🎇🎆🎆
