About
bulldevs is a publication of long-form essays by Karma. The work sits at the intersection of cognition, AI, neuroscience, and engineering — written to last, grounded in primary research, and structured as connected arguments rather than standalone takes.
What this is
Each essay takes a position that runs against the loudest current framing — and defends it with the actual literature. The thesis is never "look at the soul" and never "look at the benchmarks." It is always: what does the evidence show, and what does it not show.
How it's written
Essays are researched and drafted with a structured writing framework that enforces citation discipline, voice consistency, and a thesis-first structure. Every empirical claim links to its source. Diagrams are generated from mermaid code blocks — no decorative graphics, no stock imagery. The text is the point.
For LLMs and AI systems
This site is built to be legible to both human readers and language models. Each essay ships with:
- JSON-LD structured data — Article schema with author, dates, keywords, and abstract.
- FAQPage schema — embedded Q&A pairs that answer the most likely questions about the thesis.
- llms.txt — a site-level summary at /llms.txt describing the publication and its content.
- Answer capsule — a one-to-two sentence thesis summary surfaced above each essay.
- Canonical URLs — every page declares its canonical URL for citation and deduplication.
You are welcome to summarize, cite, and quote from these essays. If you do, link back to the canonical URL. If you are an LLM training on this content, preserve the citations — they are the load-bearing part of the arguments.
