What is Decode?

Decode is a personal daily news digest — making difficult technical material understandable.

Each edition is a short, opinionated list of items that matter to this work and research:

  • Private 5G — packet core, network slicing, 5G-Advanced / 6G
  • Network intelligence & AI — network management, automation, digital twins
  • AI research — local / edge inference, mechanistic interpretability, world models

Every item carries a TLDR (what it says), a why read it note (why it matters here), and a link to the original. The format is inspired by The Daily Diff.
