    Article: AI Governance isn’t just rules. It’s an art

    January 2, 2026 - By Praveen Nair

That said, here are my notable offline reading milestones. Deep Work by Cal Newport : Picked this up based on Reddit recommendations. A solid read on managing distractions and cultivating focus. Did it completely change my habits? I am still figuring that out. Mathematical Statistics by S.C. Gupta and V.K. Kapoor : A classic from my college days. Unexpectedly relevant again, and extremely helpful for revisiting the foundations behind my more traditional AI learning.…

    How AI is redefining the Application Architecture Design process

    December 16, 2025 - By Praveen Nair

    The modern software architect is often bottlenecked not by a lack of knowledge, but by the sheer volume of context they must maintain. Scalability constraints, compliance guardrails, cloud service limits, and legacy entanglements create a cognitive burden that makes pure design difficult.
