On a more personal note: I am wrapping up my internship and looking for full-time roles in post-training and adjacent areas. At MSR I worked on agentic RL for general tool-calling on benchmarks like BFCL, Taubench, and MCPBench and on self-distillation and synthetic-environment data curation and training. More of my work can be found on my github and website, linking below. Please RT/QT for helping w the algo:)

New blog! This blog is about whether we can RL a small model to catch LLMs in writing, and have a sense of which model writes in what way, and can RL pick up on these writing styles:) Please do check it out, blog link, traces and code in the comments. RT/QT for the reach:)

tha hardest part of working in outdoor quadrotor experiments is to get all the required admin permissions to fly for any considerable amount of time

@_asadmemon can we run our own SLAM code on this hardware? Or flashing custom code is not supported now?

I have done it! Mighty's Batch-1 is in production! ✅ Mighty is the smallest VIO/SLAM module, here are the final specs and features: - Global shutter camera + IMU - 0.8W peak power - Outputs pose @ 15hz, IMU runs @ 800hz - Ultra efficient scalable loop closure and mapping via SDK - Can sync multiple cameras thanks to new FSYNC pinout - Connects to everything! Mavlink/CRSF for drones, Arduinos/ESP32, Phones, RPIs, etc. - Powered by 5v USB or 3v-15v power input directly. - Lua programmable, so you can change output protocols or add custom behaviors etc.

@mrpollo A 3-3.5 inch cheap crazyflie style quad will be revolutionary in aerial robotics. Similar to unitree's legged robots making hardware locomotion feasible worldwide

🛠️ Academia needs more dev kits. The capability gap with industry is smaller than people assume. In many cases it’s the same hardware and the same workflows.

ICRA 2026 wrapped. Good to see the PX4 community and meet a lot of new faces. Learned a ton. A few things that stood out 🧵 #icra2026 #icra

I'm sorry but The Filter Coffee is an extremely average place to have south indian food. Massively overpriced and bland flavours. Rameshwaram is still okay, but Filter Coffee is just fancy interiors with no substance.
Sanket🦾@sassysanket

📍The filter coffee, Indiranagar 📍Rameshwaram cafe, Indiranagar The Ghee breakfast 😋 Had Ghee podi masala dosa, and it was amazing, when I was in Pune, I loved filter coffee softy, and I wanted here also, but couldn’t find one in the Rameswaram Cafe Indiranagar. can you suggest good places for filter coffee softie in Indiranagar?

@FIR31415 @VecrosTech @besta_tweets high altitude regions. above 50m AGL. lot of VIO implementation faces alot of issues with long horizon motion since there is no loop closure

we built a drone that flies without GPS, without a pilot, without any signal tested it in darkness, in GPS-denied zones. it just… works. so here's an open challenge: name an environment you think it can't handle. we'll test the best suggestion on camera.

we are an endangered species you and I .. we are lovers of flight … checkout India’s First Truly Spatial AI (AI which understands the space) drone ‘ATHERA’ truly rugged. built for high performance mission. no compromise on materials, intelligence and reliability.

@yacineMTB It becomes exponentially difficult with more pendulums. You are at the end controlling a chaotic system. In the limit this becomes like controlling a rope/chain to stay upright.

@ChidubemNdukwe @OpenRoboticsOrg one thing that I have learnt is that devices connected via usb will always be used via serial id or name. too much name conflict otherwise. Unless the connection has a specific port(e.g. THS1 for Orin UART) , by serial-id it is.

3am debugging session: RTAB-Map had no data, #ROS2 topics were hanging, and I spent hours chasing ghosts in my DDS configs. The culprit? wasn't even DDS. My arm controller was hijacking /dev/ttyUSB0 from the Lidar. Never hardcode device paths. Fixed, live, and ready for mapping.

@AegislashV Wanting a stronger model for inline autocomplete while keeping your own code ownership is a reasonable middle ground. Copilot-style completion with Claude model quality would be a real upgrade for that workflow.

you know what I would really like is say Sonnet 4.6 or something good doing the inline autocomplete the way GitHub Copilot does it. Like I wanna write my own code but autocomplete trivial parts of it with a better model than GPT4

Make Pune the model city for PM Modi’s fuel conservation vision. Triple seat riders are already maximizing passenger efficiency, signal jumpers are minimizing fuel wastage at idle & wrong side drivers are reducing unnecessary travel distance.
