Last 3 months recap (Dec-Feb): >Scored a research internship @Mphasis AI Lab >Co-authored a research paper on Socratic chatbots >Paper was accepted into AI impact summit, Delhi >Got invited to the British Council for the future of AI >Had a chat with @matiii - CEO of eleven labs, @KanishkaNarayan - UK minister of AI >Working on a Computer Vision project for visually impaired >Grinding Discrete Mathematics & Linear Algebra >Traveled to Delhi, met new people, visited new places >Gifted my mom IEMs with my own money Looking back, I guarantee that you can achieve a lot of things in the span of 90 days. The most important thing I learnt is to never say no. I am in my first year and I don't wanna leave any stones unturned so hmu for any and all opportunities. I am posting it all here as a personal diary and as a reminder that you can make a lot happen if you decide that you want to. This is only a start and hopefully a step in the right direction. Have a bright future kittens!

@aarondotdev financial slop vs software slop

what’s more annoying crypto bros or ai bros

working on hardware related projects now: In talks with two gaming peripherals company to design their web software. Let's see how it goes. One step towards a pure hardware project.

@Mrwhosetheboss was never a fan of macbooks

Apple's marketing feels more and more misleading each year Apple's trailer for the new M5 MacBook Pros writes "Up to 5 times faster graphics" Turns out that figure comes from a very specific, obscure example, and that when you dig through the press release you find that actually: "The graphics performance for M5 Max is up to 20 percent higher than M4 Max". So we've gone from "5 times faster" to actually "1.2x faster" not a fan

oh ClaudeCode aren't you so beautiful

@MankyDankyBanky @_reesechong Where did you learn all of this? What learning resources would you recommend?

I built a neural network from scratch without using PyTorch, TensorFlow, or any libraries for that matter. Instead, I implemented the core math myself. I'm working on making my own machine learning framework from scratch with my friend @_reesechong. He previously trained a similar neural network, but using just scalars. The next step was to use tensors instead. The benefit of this is clear: when using scalars each data point is looped through separately creating its own node in a computation graph. With tensors, these separate nodes are stored together, allowing one forward and backward pass for the whole batch, greatly improving the efficiency of training. We often hear the saying "don't reinvent the wheel", but in my experience rebuilding technologies that abstract away a lot of complexity gives you a better and more thorough understanding of how the system works. Results of the training are shown below. Feel free to checkout the repo and read through the code, linked in the replies.

@svpino I am sure anthropic can solve this issue if they really wanted to. It does not lie in their priorities as of now.

I want to move permanently to Claude, but their desktop experience is nowhere near ChatGPT. You can’t upload large/multiple documents to Claude because it can’t process them. ChatGPT ingests whatever you throw at it. This is the only thing keeping me from canceling my ChatGPT subscription.

@ceo_mohamedz absolute legend

all you nerds out here making Clawdbot do market research and write code. I’ve got 10 of them doomscrolling IG Reels 24/7, and sending me the absolute bangers.

@amritwt Claude becoming mainstream in non-tech people is saddening.

I have been seeing reels on Instagram about people discovering Claude The avg population is slowly realising what they were missing out on It's about to be so over or we are about to be so back

@zach_yadegari Your creation is in the right hands. Couldn't have received a better parent than MyFitnessPal.

Cal AI has been acquired by MyFitnessPal 🚨 Henry and I started Cal AI as 17-year old high school students with one mission: make calorie tracking easier with AI. In just 18 months, we’ve helped millions of people lose millions of pounds. And we broke $50m in ARR along the way. We are at an incredible inflection point in history where ANYBODY can build a product that can improve lives and make millions. As founders, we get a lot of praise. The truth is that this would not have been possible without our incredible 30+ person team. We are so proud of what this team has accomplished, and are thankful to everyone that has been instrumental in Cal AI’s development and success. Cal AI will continue as a separate app from MyFitnessPal. The combined team will share resources to continue helping people achieve their fitness goals!

The government just randomly decides to block two of the biggest databases: Firebase and Supabase so this man can make money and fund their political campaigns. The people suffering aren't the corporate employees or the bigtech, it's solo devs, startups and people that do not have resources for self-hosting and migration.

time to spend the next 6 hours migrating all my projects from supabase to an inferior DB

Pulled the trigger on ClaudeCode subscription

In talks with a gaming peripheral company to design a web based software for their mouse. Let's see how that goes.

@daniel_nguyenx not this.

If Steve Jobs was alive today, I wonder what he would build.

@nikitabier the new beta Android app feels a bit unresponsive at times especially when going back using the phone button

@EtherHi21630 @nalinrajput23 You're either visually impaired or cannot distinguish between the way it is implemented among the two. Have a good day!

as a developer, which one do you prefer??

@norizzrhys @nalinrajput23 That makes sense

@ayushhcantcode @nalinrajput23 That feature is only in one of the newest builds of iOS 26. In earlier versions it’s just according to whether you’re in dark or light mode

@toeshopping @nalinrajput23 I am not very into getting flashed with bright yellow/green colours when I open an album. Album is about the music and the lyrics and will always be like that, everything else is a distraction.

@ayushhcantcode @nalinrajput23 Disagree, I think the album should be the focus and has the right to change the UI.

@brecken_yo25460 @nalinrajput23 And your reason being...?

@ayushhcantcode @nalinrajput23 whole heartedly disagree

@paritall @nalinrajput23 I like this a lot actually, did not know this existed.

@ayushhcantcode @nalinrajput23 you can use high contrast mode if you prefer
