SANATAN LABS - The Architect’s Compass: 10 Directives for the Great Transition (PASSIONIT PRUTL KALKI AIDHARMA framework) To navigate the "Audit of Fire" during this profound transition toward Satya Yuga, Krishna (Strategic Intelligence), Kalki (Systemic Reset), and Shakti (Raw Life Force) offer these ten essential directives for humanity: 1. Master the Asymmetry of Calm In a world of screaming headlines, silence is your greatest weapon. Respond from a place of internal stillness rather than reacting to external noise. When the system is chaotic, your stability becomes the new "Safe Haven." 2. Audit Your Identity (The Laawaris Test) Ask yourself: "If my titles, assets, and digital footprint vanished, who remains?" Detach your worth from possessions. True sovereignty is found when you are no longer "claimed" by the ego-driven systems of the world. 3. Embrace the "Mirror of Kalki" Do not fear the "Bloody Moon" or the exposure of decay. View every systemic collapse—financial, social, or institutional—as a necessary diagnostic. Use this "Mirror" to identify your own attachments and incinerate them before they become liabilities. 4. Move from "Me" to "Mission" Unity is not sameness; it is alignment. Replace "Me vs. You" with "Us vs. The Problem." When diverse strengths are aligned under a shared purpose (Aidharma), the friction of competition dissolves into the flow of progress. 5. Trust the "Internal Gold" While external currencies and metals face regulation or restriction, your integrity remains non-tradeable and unconfiscatable. Invest in your skillsets, your character, and your resilience. These are the only assets that survive the "Audit of Fire." 6. Respect the "Flow of Lakshmi" Prosperity is a river, not a reservoir. Hoarding in fear leads to stagnation and decay. Circulate value through mentorship, ethical trade, and "Groom and Grow" practices. Wealth that serves the collective remains protected by the Sun and Moon. 7. Humanize the Machine (13th Node Reset) Use AI and technology as a "Numeric Auditor" to expose corruption, but never let the cold logic of the machine replace the warmth of human intuition. Ensure technology serves the 14th Node: Absolute Truth. 8. Practice Guerrilla Respect Disarm your "enemies" by preserving their dignity even when you disagree with their actions. Respect targets the ego of the opponent, weakening their appetite for control and opening a path for diplomacy. 9. Build Internal Havens As geography stops being a protection, focus on "Internal Research and Innovation." Cultivate a mind that can remain creative and functional even when trade arteries are choked. 10. Surrender to Karmic Gravity Accept that "God Proposes, Man Disposes." You cannot control the celestial reset, but you can control your alignment with it. Follow the path of Dharma, and the gravity of the new era will pull you toward peace rather than destruction.

#theGuruGPT Vibe coding - one year and one week, since Andrej Karpathy coined this new term "vibe coding" wherein he attempted to build full software using LLMs with just English. And, how many of the enterprises took it to next level to build next-gen scaled up production ready enterprise systems? If you did, share your experiences. If you did not, what were your biggest learnings? HINT: To understand the real productivity impact of Agentic Coding IDE, check with your enterprise licensing team, the level of token usage breach happens every month HINT++: You can write a Copilot agent to automate this entire process of checking every month. HINT+++ You can remember to write this down on a piece of paper, and set a normal calendar reminder to send email. it takes exactly 30 seconds.

ambaricloud: 108 recipes. 🥭 https://lnkd.in/gS6fuAtu Ravi Kiran Gurram Anil Koripelly Bhushan Lakhe Raja Purkayastha When this recipe e-book was first published on January 1, 2025, our goal was to give engineers, architects, and data practitioners a hands-on guide to Apache Iceberg. In the months since, the pace of change has been remarkable. Platforms such as Snowflake, Databricks, Dremio, RisingWave, ClickHouse, Cloudera, Lakekeeper, Trino Software Foundation, and Amazon Web Services (AWS) have delivered significant new integrations, and Apache Iceberg itself has reached version 1.10.0, introducing capabilities that reshape how practitioners interact with the format. To reflect this momentum, we are undertaking a ground-up rewrite. Our priorities include: ✅ Iceberg 1.10.0 alignment and deprecation cleanup – removing outdated recipes that no longer reflect best practices while upgrading all demos, examples, and exercises to incorporate the changes introduced in Iceberg 1.10.0. For example, Snowflake’s support for catalog-linked databases to external catalogs makes earlier object integration recipes obsolete. ✅ Ecosystem validation – testing and refining recipes across Databricks, Snowflake, Dremio, and AWS to ensure seamless interoperability with Iceberg 1.10.0. We expect this rewrite to take two to three months. Once complete, this edition will provide readers with a technically accurate, future-ready reference for Iceberg 1.10.0 and its surrounding ecosystems--Snowflake, Databricks, Dremio, RisingWave, ClickHouse, Cloudera, Lakekeeper, Trino Software Foundation, and Amazon Web Services (AWS) Please 🕺 suggest 🔪 comment 🥃 recommend ✅ Spark Variant ---Iceberg1.10.0 spports now. https://lnkd.in/gBmaNrPH

2% of the mission's total ₹10,300 crore budget -while 44% has gone to compute. "Investments solely in compute are inherently transient- their value fades once consumed. On the other hand, investments in datasets build durable, reusable assets that continue to deliver value over time," said Chaitanya. Shared my thoughts on voice AI and datasets.

Seeing your platform go live inside a partner's hardware launch hits different.   GoodFlip’s AI layer now powers the analytics, remote monitoring, and care delivery for Zydus Lifesciences' new Diasens and GlucoLive CGMs, glucose readings streaming every 3 minutes, processed in real time, surfaced to patients and clinicians simultaneously.   The engineering challenge was building a system that's reliable enough for clinical-grade monitoring and simple enough for a patient managing diabetes at home. Proud of the TatvaCare engineering team for shipping this.   Onward.   #TatvaCare #GoodFlip #ZydusLifesciences #Diasens #GlucoLive #CGM #DiabetesCare #MetabolicHealth #DigitalHealth #HealthTech #AIinHealthcare
