Where and weather

Same as last time. Ahmedabad and hot.

Watching, reading…

  • Watching: It is not happening as much as I wished. But I’ve found new cinema landscape to relish: Malayalam cinema. I didn’t know this side of world existed. Malayalam cinema is my new Korean and Japanese counterparts. Once you watch Hollywood movies, you realize that most Bollywood movies suck. Once you watch Korean and Japanese movies, you realize Hollywood movies suck. And once you’ve watched Malayalam movies, you realize: well, that’s that. Korean, Japanese and Malayalam are the new trio.
  • Reading: AI agent responses and documentation. That’s what I’ve been reading.

Working

  • A few weeks back, we opened waitlist for Feedhammer! If you use Basecamp or know someone who does, please suggest them to check out Feedhammer. They may find it helpful. In essence, Feedhammer aggregates a collection of Basecamp projects, cleans them up, filters them as per your choice and gives you one feed URL that you can add to Google Calendar or share with a client. They don’t have to keep checking Basecamp for any upcoming Meetings, Todos or Cards. Feedhammer is our answer to a very specific problem that most Basecamp users, especially Freelancers and Agency owners are feeling. We will be launching in a few weeks time.
  • New Product in line: While I am gearing up for Feedhammer launch, preparing Wu Wei Cards for onlie shopping…there’s a new product under development. I will share about it once I have created the prototype and tested it well. It is going to be an interesting take in the field of Development Practice and Social Impact. Idea for this product was brewing for quite some time but I wasn’t sure about its shape and focus. Last week, I was talking to one of my ex-colleagues and something clicked in my mind. And yes, the product is going to have AI built in it. It is going to be fun.
  • As for Wu Wei Cards, we have our first partner store displaying our product: InStore. It is a beautiful store. If you’re in Ahmedabad, I recommend visiting it. Not to purchase our product, but just to experience their store. Great taste.
  • We are looking for more partners to display Wu Wei Cards. If you happen to know a place that would be a good fit, please let me know.

Travel plan…

Mostly, I will be traveling to Pune in July.

Writing

I don’t know if these essays will see the light of day, but here are their working titles:

  • “How to lose track of time”
  • “Art as a positive force”

Where and weather…

Same as my last update. Ahmedabad and Hot.

Watching, reading…

Reading a lot of articles and blogs on LLM mechanism, embeddings, context engineering etc. Thanks to the just completed Wu Wei Cards product. It forced me to take this work up. More in upcoming blogs and essays.

Working

As I mentioned, in the last update:

  • Wu Wei Cards product is made live today. This is one of the long-running projects of Sisyphus Consulting Pvt. Ltd. In fact, even before the company was formed. This was always in the pipeline. Wu Wei cards is a combination of physical + digital + AI tech. I’m quite excited to share all the struggles, learning and insights in my upcoming blogs and essays. If you’re reading this and if you want to get your hands dirty with some real work and ideas, email me.
  • Feedhammer is still in the last phase of testing but there was a major feature addition that we had to do a few weeks back. All in all, I’m quite happy with the addition. It positions Feedhammer as a well-thought out product. Let’s see how much more time it takes for its rollout.
  • Based on my experience with the Wu Wei Cards’ AI feature, now I’m gearing up to offer personalized AI solutions for clients. We have solved the problem from technical and costing side, now we can help clients better. If you’re looking for a solution or has an inkling on something that you want to build for your organization–on your own data, we are in the perfect position to help you figure things out and build it.

Travel plan…

Every time I plan travel, something comes up. The last update’s travel plan didn’t happen. Let’s see what happens this time. In any case, April-June are not my favourite months of travel.

Writing

“You can just do things” essay is almost complete. It should be out by next week.

Updated on February 25th, 2026 from my desk

Where and weather..

This hasn’t changed since my last update. Right now I’m residing in Ahmedabad. March-June months are typically quite hot here. And they’re getting hotter (until early 2000s the media and “experts” were saying it is due to some Ozone layer hole. Then they started saying that it is due to Global Warming. Now I’m convinced it is due to Climate Change). Let’s see how this season goes.

Watching, reading…

If I’m watching any movies, they’re mostly South Korean, Japanese or Indonesian ones. (This reminds me of compiling the list of movies that I have watched until now.) Currently reading “Barbarians at the Gate: The Fall of RJR Nabisco”, a real corporate drama thriller. I haven’t read something like this ever. The authors are wordsmiths and real artists, painting a vivid picture of each character involved in the LBO (leveraged buyout) of RJR Nabisco. Simply beautiful.

Working…

In the last update, I had mentioned a couple of projects that I was working on. I have abandoned some of them. These are couple of things I’m working on:

  • Catering to a few clients on their tech solutions.
  • The Wu Wei Cards product is in its last phase: not only the physical cards, but also digital tools have been created. It is going to be a beautiful product providing a beautiful experience.
  • Another major software prdouct I’m working on is Feedhammer. It is still stealth and the testing is in its last phase. This product is going to be the biggest bet from Sisyphus Consulting in 2026. Bet in the sense of opening a product up for a large number of users. And yes, this product is focused on the US, UK, European market. We will see if Indian consumers want it and later on release India-specific tiers too.

Travel plans…

Travelling to Pune and around in March for work. Leisure travel may not be this planned, if it is going to happen, it would take a moment’s notice I guess.

Writing…

I have been publishing more than last year. However, long-form essays are taking more time. Currently writing an essay with a working title “you can just do things”.
