A view of 2026 from 1927
Metropolis, a 1927 sci-fi movie, is set in a dystopian capitalist society where a whole city is owned by Joh Frederson. The story revolves around his son, Freder Frederson, wandering around the city having an adventure. To put it simply. It’s about class struggle. Maybe faith. At one point, I thought it’s an anti-capitalist movie and at another point, I thought it’s anti-communist… but maybe it’s both or neither.. it’s just a movie.
I started it out of curiousity to get a perspective on what people thought of as super futuristic in 1927. The movie is said to be set in 2026. The year I’m currently writing this in. It’s 18th January, 2026. It feels a little surreal that people 100 years ago dreamed of this time and made stories about it. I’ll go over the technology of Metropolis (as much as I could understand it) in this blog article.

A glance at Swift
I recently picked up Swift. This article is about some of the things in Swift that I thought were cool. I will probably update this as I come upon more cool stuff, which is bound to happen as I’m still starting out.

Making LLMs do what you want
Tired of spending hours convincing an LLM to just do that one thing? You have tried lots of different ways to no satisfaction and yet it eludes you why it isn’t able to just do this really simple task? Look no further! You’ve reached the place you’ll learn the dark arts of making any LLM head over heels for you. I have worked with LLMs since about two years now and this guide is about what I learnt and how we can ensure the best prompts while also modifying prompts to accomodate evolving requirements.
