Interesting they are actually launching EVs in India: https://bwautoworld.com/article/honda-starts-pan-india-test-...

CUDA programming (writing CUDA kernels) might be a good direction too.

GPU race is getting really hot and there is a lot of work being done to squeeze every ounce of performance especially for LLM training and inference.

One resource I would recommend is “Programming massively parallel processors” [1]

I am also learning it as my hobby project and uploading my notes here [2]

I am curious if you tried something like langchain[1] it would solve the problem of not remembering previous conversations. In one of the examples people have used an entire company notion database on top of GPT-3 to answer questions specifically from that database.

PS: not tried myself.

I have been a premium member for a while and it has helped me so so much. Thank you! However I don't see the new guide feature. Is it yet to launch?

Very responsibly done! The issue was not that they had to share the logs with law enforcement, the issue was that marketing message was incorrect from them. This is a responsible step.

I know what you mean. I loved Vsauce when it originally came out. I remember getting an “oh! Wow!” reactions with amazing first season when Michael would explain things. Later when it moved, it was all too much fluff and little core material I originally loved. I completely lost touch eventually.

I listen to this speech every 2 months. I have known a colleague for years now, but he became a good friend because I was able to understand his perspective in a useless conflict. This speech is so powerful, and calls attention to true human virtues which are easily forgotten (empathy, compassion). It is good reminder of how we live our lives as center of our own universe, completely unaware!

This looks amazing, probably features like discoverability and recommendation of creators is in the list?

If I follow n of these people, this person x would be a good creator to follow? Something like that. I realized I don’t know so many of the creators at all.

I am not sure what more evidence of global warming the lawmakers need to treat it as global threat and take strong actions.

I have tried so many music genres and following 2 works for me:

- Film scores (not including the lyrics ones)

- Game music

These I think tries to keep you engaged in the primary action (coding, playing game, or engrossed in movie, reading) without you noticing it too often.

Some repetitive familiar classical music (e.g. Chopin) also does the same to me.

The problem often is how to separate wheat from chaff. With literally zillions of online content points, how do you find something is good + valuable to you.

I haven’t solved the problem, but I find Twitter search very very valuable. I use it two ways:

1. Reverse search an article/topic and see how many believable people found it useful.

2. Build Twitter lists for topics and find people who are believable in the field and follow their recommendations.

Of course as I said, it doesn’t solve the problem but keeps me sane.

I find Twitter search an amazing tool.

I still find notion too slow for some reason although it has improved over the last year for me. Kudos to the guys though. Great story. Notion definitely has growing feature list. Now it has API, backlinking etc.

Pycon videos are such a quality content. Best use of time. I always learn so much. Is there a JS equivalent conference which has such content? JS newbie here.

14 years is such a long time. I am not the same person I was a year ago. There is no excuse to what he did, but what if he is a different person altogether now.

While growing up in a very dry region in India, I remember people get boring wells drilled in their land to extract ground water (sometimes even 1000 feet deep). This ground water often tastes subtly sweet and I remember drinking that water in summer heat, getting this amazing sweet after taste. In fact people go to neighbors who have "meetha pani" (sweet water) for their daily consumption. Not sure if that was D2O and not H2O.

I admire the thought here however as author himself pointed out this is an innovation killer in some way. I think then we need to separate what can be shipped with universal BYOC and what can’t. Any new innovation is build up on existing features. Extending it to heterogeneous clients will be neither cost effective nor innovation friendly. I work for MS office and shipping the same feature on online client vs win32 apps takes 1-2 quarter and sometime whole rewrite.
