To celebrate the new edition of DDIA, revive my writing discipline and my resolve to read the whole damn thing this time, I share my first blog in years: LSM Trees from First Principles. ditsuke.com/lsm-trees
Cindy Sridharan@copyconstruct

there’s a new edition of @intensivedata which is one of the most pivotal technical books written in the last decade, and almost no chatter on this app about the new edition or the new content it covers. Are there no serious engineers and practitioners on this app anymore? 😢

I kinda want to build a new cache from the ground up in rust. None of the existing ones quite hit the spot: 1. hybrid memory/disk 2. hierarchical indexing (key range eviction) 3. thundering herd protection 4. rust native

My colleague and I asked questions tonight both on why we should trust India given the human violations rights, and also about the visit. I tried multiple times to get them to be specific on human rights, but I was unsuccessful. The representatives talked about India’s effort during Covid & also yoga, among other things. My colleague has the videos so I will try to publish tomorrow.

#Imp: A potential conflict of interest has been pointed out in the Bhojshala case by the gentleman here. A day before the judge gave the judgment holding the disputed place of worship is as a temple—which by the way was enabled by Chief Justice Surya Kant despite the Supreme Court’s continuing stay on adjudication of Temple-Mosque disputes (read my Frontline column on it)—his son was empaneled as an advocate by the Madhya Pradesh BJP government. Opposition parties must raise this issue strongly. The institution cannot be weaponised in this manner for political gains!

इतिहास गवाह है — जब न्याय की कुर्सी पर बैठे लोग निष्पक्षता से हटते दिखाई देते हैं, तब लोकतंत्र की आत्मा घायल होती है। कमाल मौला मस्जिद मामले में ऐतिहासिक फैसला देने वाली संयुक्त पीठ में शामिल न्यायमूर्ति विजय कुमार शुक्ला के पुत्र सुजय शुक्ला को लगभग उसी दिन सरकारी पैनल अधिवक्ता नियुक्त किया जाना कई गंभीर सवाल खड़े करता है??? इतना ही नहीं, यह जानकर और भी आश्चर्य होता है कि सुजय शुक्‍ला, वरिष्ठ अधिवक्ता एवं भारत सरकार के अतिरिक्त सॉलिसिटर जनरल श्री सुनील जैन जी के सहायक भी हैं, जिन्होंने इसी मामले में एएसआई @ASIGoI का पक्ष रखा था। ऐसे में जनता के मन में यह प्रश्न स्वाभाविक है — क्या यह केवल संयोग है? या फिर सत्ता, व्यवस्था और प्रभाव का सुनियोजित प्रयोग? जब न्यायपालिका से जुड़े इतने बड़े फैसले के आसपास ऐसे नियुक्ति आदेश सामने आते हैं, तो सवाल उठना लोकतंत्र की सेहत के लिए आवश्यक है। न्याय केवल होना नहीं चाहिए, न्याय होता हुआ दिखना भी चाहिए। अगर न्याय के मंदिर में भी पक्षपात की आहट सुनाई देने लगे, तो लोकतंत्र का भरोसा कमजोर होता है। शुक्ला जी को अपने बेटे के भविष्य का कितना ध्यान रखना पड़ा है, यह इन परिस्थितियों से स्पष्ट होता दिखाई देता है। देश जानना चाहता है — क्या यह योग्यता थी, या व्यवस्था की कृपा? #KamalMaulaMasjid #Judiciary #JusticeForAll #Democracy #Accountability #dhar @ShayarImran @salman7khurshid @ashharwarsi_inc @arifmasoodbpl @khanumarfa @TheMuslim786

The CJI’s reference to us as “cockroaches” suddenly reminded me of a line I had heard in my history teacher’s lecture on fascism. “Fascism cannot be stopped by the courts, as the judiciary itself will become the strongest pillar of fascism.”

STRONG WORDS from former Chief Justice of Madras High Court Sanjib Banerjee in relation to the Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma-Arvind Kejriwal case. "As a former judge I feel extremely sad, distraught... The appointments that have happened in the higher judiciary in last 10-12 years... More and more politically inclined judges have been appointed... that is doing a great disservice to the judiciary," he says here to @PreetiChoudhry. Justice Banerjee also states that a judge of the higher judiciary "should not have too much of an ego... drives you in a wrong direction". "Not good for the judiciary. We got to clean up the house... ensure process of appointment is cleansed up," he says.

Kejriwal vs Delhi HC Judge It’s very unsavoury and could have been avoided. If the judge had expressed her view at an earlier stage, she should have realised that there was a possibility of prejudice and a likelihood of bias: Justice Sanjib Banerjee,  Former Chief Justice of Meghalaya High Court/Former Judge #TTP | @PreetiChoudhry

I strongly believe there are entire companies right now under heavy AI psychosis and its impossible to have rational conversations about it with them. I can't name any specific people because they include personal friends I deeply respect, but I worry about how this plays out. I lived through the great MTBF vs MTTR (mean-time-between-failure vs. mean-time-to-recovery) reckoning of infrastructure during the transition to cloud and cloud automation. All those arguments are rearing their ugly heads again but now its... the whole software development industry (maybe the whole world, really). It's frightening, because the psychosis folks operate under an almost absolute "MTTR is all you need" mentality: "its fine to ship bugs because the agents will fix them so quickly and at a scale humans can't do!" We learned in infrastructure that MTTR is great but you can't yeet resilient systems entirely. The main issue is I don't even know how to bring this up to people I know personally, because bringing this topic up leads to immediately dismissals like "no no, it has full test coverage" or "bug reports are going down" or something, which just don't paint the whole picture. We already learned this lesson once in infrastructure: you can automate yourself into a very resilient catastrophe machine. Systems can appear healthy by local metrics while globally becoming incomprehensible. Bug reports can go down while latent risk explodes. Test coverage can rise while semantic understanding falls. Changes happens so fast that nobody notices the underlying architecture decaying. I worry.

I’m so glad AI killed LeetCode interviews. For 10 years, tech companies made every engineer grind the same puzzles and prove they could invert a binary tree from memory. Today, the dumbest AI model can walk in and one-shot the entire interview. Thank you, AI.

Great question. I don't use LLMs for writing. I use agents extensively for brainstorming, research, checking facts, handling markup, finding references, indexing data, and so on. But I think that asking people to read LLM-generated text breaks a kind of social contract.
Reed Schalo@Reed_Schalo

@MarcJBrooker Hi Marc - curious if you have any updated thoughts on writing in the age of LLMs? Writing helps crystallize and defend ideas but what happens when both the reader and author start to lean more and more on letting LLMs think for them?

we were never meant to wake up to rape news like it’s a daily weather report. “thank god it wasn’t me” has replaced outrage, and that numbness is part of the rape culture.
Abhijeet Dipke@abhijeet_dipke

A woman was gang-raped in a bus in Delhi, yet no TV news channel even bothering to cover the news. Is this the same India where the media & ppl came together after the Nirbhaya incident and shook the govt? Or have we, as a nation, collectively given up and become dead inside?

Brave of @Nithin0dha to write this. This is something that keeps me awake all the time. Collectively we don't seem to be showing any urgency as the privileged 1% to pull up the per capita income of the 99% in this country.

@iavins Except maybe the management which asked you to get 5-10x more productive by using the AI tools for programming, because your competition is using them.

someone already wrote a love letter to pi, by @badlogicgames. so we wrote a love paper to pi :) with my teammates @xuzihuan4 and @lintool. a few days ago, i promised i’d share some fun plots once Pi-Serini joined the BrowseComp-Plus deep research agent party. now, it’s about time. here weeeee goooooo. bear with the sloppy images first. the serious one is at the end. the question was simple: how far can we push deep research with BM25 + pi? turns out: weirdly far.
