4 years into tech, I finally had the “10x faster = did something smart, 100x faster = you were doing something very dumb” moment. The database query went 100x faster. The fix? Adding an index.

AI coding models will spawn a generational surge of knowledge-gaps and tech-debt over the next decade and the aftermath will be... messy, massive, and unavoidable.

Trying to fix the styling for images for my blogs since the last 30 minutes. CSS is really hard and confusing ngl.

Got nerd sniped again by this amazing paper from @a1zhang showing RLM (Recursive Language Models) in action. Implemented an PoC using Bun. The process behind it is smart but simple one and I think it could be huge in near-future with some tweaks. github.com/DKB0512/rlm-bun

I tried LeetCode today, got stuck on an "Easy" palindromic string question, and 15 minutes later was asking myself, "Am I too dumb for this?" But at least I solved a "Medium" zigzag pattern question for the day. I need more brain-powa to solve that easy one.
