Some Reflexes Are Earned

There’s a very specific kind of silence that happens during an outage.Not the peaceful kind.The heavy kind.Pipelines jammed. Builds failing. Deployments blocked. Every engineer slowly realizing that nothing new was shipping until someone figured this out.The root cause sounded almost stupid for the scale of damage it caused.It all started way before and I was at my desk.Near my desk, both the SRE ...

Sameer Gudhate Thought AI Was Confusing — Until He Fixed His Questions

There’s a quiet frustration most of us don’t admit out loud — the kind that shows up when you ask AI something simple, and the response comes back… almost right, but not quite. You tweak a word, try again, maybe blame the tool a little. And then one day, you stumble upon a book that gently flips the mirror toward you.That’s exactly what happened to me while reading Prompt Engineering Simplified: R...

Bullet train

If air travel is miraculous, traveling at close to airline speeds on the ground is utterly discombobulating. Achieving take off speeds but sticking very reliably and steadily to terra firma while the landscape, concrete and otherwise, just runs past you into irrelevance. Witchcraft.

Commercial

The beauty and achievement of commercial aviation is lost on us. As if its just a walk in the park to put 300 people in a tube in some luxury, with some luggage and chuck it reliably through the air at 500 kph through no oxygen and no heat and yet arrive safely at your destination. A towering achievement of human ingenuity and desperation.

The Future Didn’t Arrive With Noise. It Quietly Began Deciding for Us: Sameer Gudhate Reflects

There’s a peculiar moment we’re all living through right now — where the future isn’t arriving slowly… it’s quietly sitting beside us, finishing our sentences.That was the feeling that stayed with me while reading this book.Not excitement. Not fear. Something more unsettling — recognition.Because what this book does, very effectively, is remove the illusion that AI is “coming.” It shows you, almos...

The client

The other day I was watching a new series ‘Space Gen’. Got to know about it due to its viral vedio of its promotional event, how the chair was blocking the main poster. Reminding us how the low budget movies get promoted when compared to the huge budget films. Planned to see it just for the main lead actor and it being produced from TVF and also certainly due to its theam on Chandrayaan. You can...

Sameer Gudhate Presents the Book Review of Kalpvriksha: The God’s Code by Tarun Kaushal

I began Kalpvriksha: The God’s Code on a quiet evening when the house had finally exhaled — lights dim, phone face down, the kind of silence that feels earned. I expected a thoughtful mythological read. I didn’t expect the book to look back at me the way it did, calmly, almost knowingly, as if it had been waiting for this exact moment in human history to speak.We live in a time obsessed with accel...

Sameer Gudhate Presents the Book Review of You Can Automate by Samar Mandke

Some books arrive like a loud knock on your desk. This one arrived as a pause. I was mid-task — cells copied, formulas dragged, the quiet hum of routine — and suddenly I found myself stopping, not because Excel failed, but because I was being watched. Or rather, my habits were. You Can Automate doesn’t barge into your workflow with instructions. It leans in and asks, gently but firmly, why you are...
