The Monty Hall Problem: Why Your Gut Is Wrong, and How to Prove It

The Monty Hall problem looks like a 50/50 coin flip but isn't. This post lets you play the game, watch the probability equation update live as you add doors, and run a Monte Carlo simulation of a hundred thousand games to see intuition and math collide.

The Curse of Dimensionality: Why Geometric Deep Learning Has to Exist

Learning in high dimensions is impossible without assumptions. This post walks through the error decomposition behind every ML model, shows how the curse of dimensionality attacks each piece, and explains why exploiting geometry is the only known escape.

Graphs from Scratch: The Foundation Every GNN Stands On

Graphs are everywhere — molecules, social networks, road maps — but most tutorials skip the basics and jump straight to GNNs. This post rebuilds the foundation: what a graph actually is, the properties that matter, and interactive tools to build and explore them yourself.

Message Passing: How Graph Neural Networks Actually Think

Message passing is the heartbeat of Geometric Deep Learning. This post breaks the loop into three moves — message, aggregate, update — with the math, the PyTorch, and an interactive playground where you inject a signal and watch it spread across a graph.

The Eye as a Window: How AI is Transforming Retinal Diagnosis

The retina is the only place in the body where you can directly observe neurons and blood vessels without a needle or a scalpel. AI is turning that biological accident into a revolution in non-invasive diagnostics.

From Prompt Engineering to Context Engineering: The Shift You Already Feel

If you've written a CLAUDE.md file, you're not prompting anymore — you're engineering context. Here's what that means and why everything is changing in 2026.

World Models: The AI That Thinks Before It Acts

A world model is an agent's internal simulation of reality. Instead of just reacting to what it sees, it can imagine futures, plan inside its own mind, and act with foresight. Here's the foundation.

The Adjacency Matrix: How Graphs Talk to Neural Networks

Before a graph neural network can learn anything, it needs to read the graph. That's where the adjacency matrix comes in — a compact, elegant way to encode who is connected to whom.
