fuck local compute. that’s the play everyone else is doing. I need to figure out how to build local energy. anyone know how to build a small, safe, nuclear generator?


We had a ton of fun designing these mymind milestones. Many of them come as 3-level progressions. We started with the base/flat designs first, then assembled the layers with some magic in our custom WebGL editor hooked up to its own CMS.

@cheese_cakee_9 I would - 1. learn CS fundamentals but don't spend the bulk of time hand-writing code 2. instead, learn agentic engineering and use coding agents as the primary way of building stuff 3. then figure out what you would enjoy building, and build as many things as possible

Wow, this tweet went very viral! I wanted share a possibly slightly improved version of the tweet in an "idea file". The idea of the idea file is that in this era of LLM agents, there is less of a point/need of sharing the specific code/app, you just share the idea, then the other person's agent customizes & builds it for your specific needs. So here's the idea in a gist format: gist.github.com/karpathy/442a6… You can give this to your agent and it can build you your own LLM wiki and guide you on how to use it etc. It's intentionally kept a little bit abstract/vague because there are so many directions to take this in. And ofc, people can adjust the idea or contribute their own in the Discussion which is cool.
