Thanks a lot for the content Abhinav, I can understand how much effort you might have put in for these. I enjoyed reading these article even though a lot went over the head ( was never in to knowing system level details) but it gave hints on what should I read to consume it. And I think I am bit better than 2023.

Hoping to learn more from you in 2025 to be better than 2024.

Happy new year.

Thanks, Udit! Yes, it is natural to find some of the things harder to understand, it is part of the learning process. If they don't seem hard that means you already have mastered it :).

Hi Abhinav, can I ask if you'd consider writing from a beginners perspective from-the-ground-up? I'd love to sub if so. An archive/branch solely for this level I think could do well. Thanks, and have a good Christmas.

Thank you for the feedback. I'd love to do that but I have no way of knowing what is the background of the readers here. I've tried to do polls in the past but 1% of the people respond to those, so it very hard for me to guess.

But I've some plans of doing some activities outside of Substack to cover some of the basics. If you are interested in that, I'd suggest wait for an announcement in a couple of months. Don't need to upgrade for it right now :)

This year's content has been excellent - congratulations on a brilliant year. Really looking forward to the new additions in 2025, the research paper discussion sounds very interesting!

Congratulations on your success in 2024, Abhinav, and all the best for 2025.

Thank you! You might not know but your work is very inspiring for me. There are so many tech publications following formulaic writing, but yours and a handful few others are actually writing things which are unique, and well researched. I wish you to have more success in the coming year as well.
