Hi! My name is Krishna Rupanagunta. A big part of this blog is devoted to the art and science of decision making: from how to transform problem solving in Enterprises to the massive opportunity that all things data presents in today’s business environment. I have always been in the problem solving space: from optimization and simulation all the way to the current AI/ML explosion. Here’s my professional journey: http://www.linkedin.com/in/krishna-rupanagunta
My other (real?) passion is to explore the endlessly fascinating complexities of the human experience at the confluence of Technology, Economics, and Psychology: what that means to how we as individuals and societies make choices, big and small. I will share my reading list and whenever I can, write up my review of the book as well. And if you are up for a book discussion, you can always reach out to me.
I would love to hear from you – feel free to leave a review/comments on my posts, and if you do want to go beyond that, my email: rsrikrishna1@gmail.com.

All put together, it costed by less than $25 (a similar device retails for $279 from Purple Air, which means the economics of… Continue Reading →
#60 – Rediscovering the maker mindset
You have probably heard of the growth mindset (Carol Dweck’s seminal work in development psychology). This is the recognition that the brain is a muscle – with practice, effort and nurturing, it can continue to grow and develop, a clear departure from the more fixed mindset of intelligence being an innate trait (you either have… Continue Reading →
#59 – Learning: Exploring the ‘Adjacent Possible’
Isaac Newton, when asked how he was able to work out some of the fundamental laws in Physics, is said to have responded: “By standing on the shoulders of giants”. A couple of centuries later, a reported asked Einstein if he believed that his stunning contributions to Physics were ‘by standing on the shoulders of… Continue Reading →
