Debayan Gupta of Ashoka CS: AI is posing some threats to Open Source software. As the experience of Tailwind CSS layoffs shows, ppl are just not turning towards OS software and tinkering to get what they want. LLMs give it to them.

The 2025 NIF Book Prize goes to Aparajith Ramnath’s excellent biography of M. Visvesvaraya (a complicated figure to put it mildly). Could not think of a more deserving book and worthier recipient of this accolade than Ramnath.
