I write about the things I keep thinking about.

The shelf

Ten subjects, and the lines that run between them

Projects

Four branches of one domain, each split between what I make and what I take in

arnavraja.in / projects

  • lab.arnavraja.inIn progress
    Built

    Large machine learning systems and full-scale experiments, with notes on what worked and what did not.

    Read

    Papers and books on how machines learn, with my notes on each.

  • tools.arnavraja.inIn progress
    Built

    Ambitious, full-scale software I have built and made public.

    Used

    The software I rely on every day, and what makes it good.

  • sound.arnavraja.inIn progress
    Made, less often

    The occasional track, sketch or production note.

    Heard, most of the time

    Listening logs, album notes and the records I keep going back to. This is most of what lives here.

  • colour.arnavraja.inIn progress
    Made, most of the time

    Drawings, paintings and digital work. This is most of what lives here.

    Seen, less often

    Now and then, notes on an artist, an exhibition or an image I keep returning to.

Also on this domain: blog.arnavraja.in for writing, and work.arnavraja.in for freelance work.

Writing

Ideas at three stages of ripeness

Writing on the blog is sorted by how far an idea has grown, not by date. Each piece carries a small copy of the shelf map, with the subjects it draws on lit up.

A few lines

Seeds

Fragments, questions and things I noticed.

Mathematics as a kind of musicWorking title
A few pages

Sprouts

Notes that are growing: reading notes and ideas in progress.

What a neural network actually learnsWorking title
Finished

Evergreens

Essays I have worked through and still stand behind.

Why I am writing in publicWorking title

Pieces move from one stage to the next as they grow. A seed can become an essay; most stay seeds.

Work

For people building things

Each job turns noise into signal. Something tangled comes in, and something clear goes out.

  • Software development

    You bringAn idea, a process done by hand, or a tool that has outgrown its spreadsheet.

    You getA website, web app or internal tool, built cleanly and handed over with documentation.

  • AI and machine learning

    You bringA product, and a question about whether AI can make it better.

    You getLanguage models, search or prediction added where they are worth using, and a straight answer where they are not.
