One thing that keeps coming up when scaling AI agents to production is Semantic Caching. Not the concept - the execution. What do you cache? For how long? What about tool calls, user state, & multi-turn conversations? Here's how I'd approach it - medium.com/towards-artificia… @towards_AI

Unlike doctors who practice evidence based medicine, Ayurvedic vaidyas are actually the real allopathic doctors in disguise, masquerading as actual doctors. Instead of hopeful rhetoric or "ancient wisdom" speeches, they should provide RCT-backed proof that they are better than evidence-based medicine in preventing diseases, enhancing survival rates or improving recovery rates significantly. Until then, Ayurveda will never ever be accepted in mainstream science, because its methods and its systems and principles are incompatible with current day standards of evidence and in many cases even contradicts it. A different methodology doesn't automatically mean an equally valid one.

Hello Doctors Apply Common Sense before arguing with us.

You seem to be very allergic to analogies Nishant, getting quite worked up there. I guess it must be some vaccine that caused this, maybe that's why you are so triggered and resorting to name-calling. 😁 Fine, since clearly you are so severely triggered by them, how about something different? Let's not expose you to analogies, but actual data. Autism has over a 100 different genetic factors - detectable in MRI scans, way before children have their first dose. I have had autism since my birth, the vaccines neither made it better or worse. I would hope that this will help you understand, but I wouldn't hold my breath. xitter.cf/introvertds/status/198…
Can autism develop post-birth? No. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that originates during early brain development, typically in utero or around birth. It does not develop later in life due to external events, such as infections, injuries, or vaccinations. •Brain differences are detectable very early: MRI studies show atypical brain growth patterns in autistic infants as young as 6 months, often before behavioural signs appear. •Genetic basis: Over 100 genes are strongly linked to autism; twin studies show 70–90% heritability. •Regression is not “acquisition”: In ~25% of cases, children lose skills (e.g., words, social response) between 12–24 months. This is not autism developing—it’s the unmasking of pre-existing neurodevelopmental differences as social/language demands increase. Why do theories exist that vaccines cause autism? The vaccine-autism myth began with a 1998 study by Andrew Wakefield, published in The Lancet, which falsely linked the MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) vaccine to autism. Bottom Line: •Autism cannot develop post-birth — it’s rooted in early brain development. •Vaccines do not cause autism — the theory came from a fraudulent, retracted study and has been debunked by decades of rigorous science. •Vaccines save lives — delaying them increases risk of preventable diseases (e.g., measles outbreaks in unvaccinated communities). If you’re concerned about a child’s development, focus on early screening (e.g., M-CHAT at 18–24 months) and evidence-based interventions, rather than debunked myths. #AutismAwareness

💯. Also, Mr. Vembu seems to be quite into things that are organic / "appeal to nature". Perhaps he should also take a look at this

I once almost choked to death while eating food. I did my own research and discovered that I’m not alone. Thousands of people choke every year while eating, and hundreds of them die. That’s why I don’t feed my kids. It’s dangerous. Now, plenty of people will point out that food supposedly "prevents starvation", and that might be true - but it’s not fair to completely ignore all the dangers food poses: choking, allergies, gingivitis, and garlic breath. I’m just saying - do your own research and decide what you think is best for your kids. If you choose to give your kids potentially deadly food, that’s your problem. But as a parent, I don't think the government has any right to tell me that I need to feed my kids. 👆 THIS IS HOW ANTIVAXXERS SOUND LIKE, TO THE REST OF US. BTW, did you know, cheese consumption in the US is also correlated with autism?

Took the stage for the first time at a freethinkers conference at @esSENSEGlobal Bangalore to discuss science and rationality. Had the privilege of meeting some prolific people, authors and YouTubers. A highlight was getting to chat with the insightful @ScienceIsDope_ ! 😄

Seeing Adipurush reviews has left me in a state of shock & amusement. I mean is this supposed to be Indrajeet or Desi Baldur? It's like they thought why be original when we can just raid Hollywood & AAA games. Thanks Bollywood for reminding me to steer clear of your cringe.
