Absolute Zero: How AI Is Learning Without Data

The Absolute Zero Reasoner The Absolute Zero Reasoner (AZR) is a recent AI innovation that presents a new methodology for AI models to learn and reason. This method diverges from traditional AI learning approaches by enabling AI to learn from scratch, without the need for pre-existing human-provided data. This is a key point: It is given zero data and self-evolves, in a similar way to Deep Mind's Alpha Zero. Alpha Zero...

Why Data Privacy Without Context Will No Longer Work in 2026

The comfort zone of anonymization is breaking. For years, enterprises have limited their privacy goals to surface-level techniques of anonymization. Techniques such as Mask PII, which obfuscate identifiers and others, are often assumed to ensure compliance without thorough execution. And that’s the red flag in today’s AI-influenced, agile data environments. Given global regulations getting stricter, multi-cloud...

Let's debug async/await in C#

I've seen many blog posts that explain how exactly async/await works in C#, but this one is an interesting take: instead of just going through the decompiled code the author uses the debugger to step through the .NET that is used for building async/await feature in C#. It would be awesome just to put a breakpoint into a generated code, but I don't think its possible. But putting a breakpoints in AsyncMethodBuilder and...

Designing Retry-Resilient Fare Pipelines With Idempotent Event Handling

In modern flight booking systems, streaming fare updates and reservations through distributed microservices is common. These pipelines must be retry-resilient, ensuring that transient failures or replays don’t cause duplicate bookings or stale pricing. A core strategy is idempotency: each event (e.g., a fare-update or booking command) carries a unique identifier so processing it more than once has no adverse effect. In...
