How do you choose a solution/tooling for a problem or enabling a capability? The adage goes "it depends"

Three situations, not unique by themselves to Indians in particular. But the blend seems challenging enough. These are some of the realities in everyone's life if you are here and kind of shape how far you can truly go.

With industry changes forcing us to re-evaluate what software engineering should be, the retrospection path isn't uniform or unanimous, nor should it be.

With LLMs being good enough to generate code, the implementation cost is dropping drastically. And a trident is emerging which can be an attempt to harness how aligned agents are to real intent. Is Spec Driven Development here to stay?

An ecosystem evolves with the meaning and context of the words/conventions used by it's participants. We need shared understanding to have meaningful conversations around topics. The engineering & scientific communities over the world have created common parlance where applicable, where does Indian context fit in?

While LLMs provided a significant leap in capability, how 'agentic' we should be with them has been of significant interest over the last years.
