This is a transcript of my keynote presentation at the Agile Cambridge conference in England on October 2nd, 2025. The topic was “The Accountability Problem.” How do we define software department accountability so our business partners don’t do it for us? Introduction The Accountability Problem Demonstrating Accountability Quantifying the Bet The First Two Years Conclusion Thanks for having me. I’m very happy to be he....
My long-standing passion lies in lexical archaeology : the dedicated collection of words rarely encountered in modern discourse.
Open Source Software(OSS) has gone through a lot of battles over the years. The recent two of ’em has been from source available software licenses and Large Language Models (LLMs). Source available predates the LLM/AI trend (in it’s current form). And source available software has a renewed interest. So many think Source Available Software (SAS) is the answer. The next step for OSS software. So I thought this is a good time to define what O....

Ike Pro was the first app that I bought with my own money from android play store. It was a to-do list app which introduced me to Eisenhower Matrix . This has been my favourite way to prioritise tasks ever since. Coming from a Linux / OSS environment (and being naive and young), paying for an app was way too new to me. But the price was justified and the quality of the app was good. I used it for a long time. And after a while, even tho....
In Fifth Edition (5e) Dungeons & Dragons ™ (D&D), druids can transform into certain Beast forms using the Wild Shape ability. Similarly, casters of the Polymorph spell can transform allies and enemies into Beasts. Players often find selecting a Beast form onerous (there are 84 forms defined in the System Reference Document (SRD) alone) as this is a multi-dimensional decision problem. We created an online tool to aid in the decision p....

Are we on our way to superintelligence wiping out humans by 2027? Or are we in a bubble of hype? My take:
Let me recap it for you: We live in a world where self-driving cars, which we were told for the last 15 years would solve every possible problem, from accidents to traffic to perhaps even loneliness, are going to be… Continue reading →

I haven’t been feeling it for the last few weeks. An inability to dedicate myself to anything, a lack of care for the things in my life, and a general malaise about being me. A month into autumn and only now do I recognise and remember this pervasive feeling as depression. Carrying on from last time , summer was hellish. It was the hottest on record with each month having its own heatwave. August itself was far hotter than the blissful....
This guide is intended to be a comprehensive look at the tech that Star Trek suggested to drive humanity forward ad astra per aspera . The emphasis is on innovations that don’t violate physics according to present consensus understanding. Go ahead and explore boldly. Are We Trek Yet? – A guide for how close we are to Star Trek technology is a funny, revealing, and well-executed idea. It is somewhat comforting that at the time of this..
Afraid of GitHub suddenly enshittifying their product? The best way to shield yourself from that is to start self-hosting your code repositories. I have been running a self-hosted instance of Gitea for around two months, and so far the process has been pretty close to painless. Photo by Content Pixie Preparing a machine To install Gitea, all you need is a server with 2 GB RAM and 2 CPU cores. The official documentation even says....

It's no surprise to anyone reading this, that git is the standard for source control today. It has completely replaced SVN, Mercurial, and many other systems we're glad to leave in the past, becoming without doubt the industry standard source control system. Maybe someday it
The literal and figurative winters of our lives will eventually come. Here are a few things to help prepare for them.
Since I have your attention for the moment, I’d like you to ask yourself a question: What is it that drives you in life? Do you yearn for the feeling of safety? By seeking power, status, wealth, and fame? Is it cravings for pleasure that motivate your actions? Does a sense of obligation to others, […]
