If I want to pivot to comp bio, I'll have to do this challenge for biology to gain domain expertise I love to gamify things so here are the terms I set for myself → 2-year self-study (of 4-year degree) → 90%+ acc on exams → 1 software demo per course of something interesting I learned I may take longer than the set time, but it will give me room to experiment Might also post progress updates on my website Inspired by @justinskycak from MathAcademy

Optimization is best spent on actions, not plans. Take an action and then optimize the next rep. Do it, and then do it incrementally better. Rinse & repeat. The point of planning is really just to find the high-value global directions in which to take action and iterate. But everybody who pushes themself to do hard stuff, especially stuff that's never been done before, knows that no plan survives contact with reality. So there's really no point in layering optimizations on top of scenarios that you don't even know will play out. Yes, make sure the actions you're taking, the problems you're solving, are moving you in the a high-value direction you want to go. But beyond that, just solve today's problems today so that you can earn the right to think about tomorrow's problems tomorrow.

Much better than optimizing your plan endlessly

You have to understand. Many instances when you made a dumb decision, it was because you were missing context. So don't berate yourself for being dumb. Instead ask yourself what context you were missing, and where you can find more of it. View it as a solvable engineering problem, not a permanent trait.

This is actually insane. Dude hard-coded a WebAssembly (WASM) interpreter into the weights of a transformer, losslessly. In essence, a computer is running inside a LLM that can actually run computations, not infer or guess a calculation like most do today.
Christos Tzamos@ChristosTzamos

1/4 LLMs solve research grade math problems but struggle with basic calculations. We bridge this gap by turning them to computers. We built a computer INSIDE a transformer that can run programs for millions of steps in seconds solving even the hardest Sudokus with 100% accuracy

Do not wait to "love" a subject to start. Competence breeds interest. You often grow to like things by becoming good at them.

this is actually insane > be tech guy in australia > adopt cancer riddled rescue dog, months to live > not_going_to_give_you_up.mp4 > pay $3,000 to sequence her tumor DNA > feed it to ChatGPT and AlphaFold > zero background in biology > identify mutated proteins, match them to drug targets > design a custom mRNA cancer vaccine from scratch > genomics professor is “gobsmacked” that some puppy lover did this on his own > need ethics approval to administer it > red tape takes longer than designing the vaccine > 3 months, finally approved > drive 10 hours to get rosie her first injection > tumor halves > coat gets glossy again > dog is alive and happy > professor: “if we can do this for a dog, why aren’t we rolling this out to humans?” one man with a chatbot, and $3,000 just outperformed the entire pharmaceutical discovery pipeline. we are going to cure so many diseases. I dont think people realize how good things are going to get

the absolute biggest challenge for humanity over the next 2-3 generations, to prevent complete annihilation of the human race, is to offer a vision for the world more incentivizing than just laying in your bed staring at your phone. and we're currently failing at it.

🚨Nobody wants to hear this but it needs to be said. > Scientists just copied a fruit fly's brain into a computer. Neuron by neuron. No training data. No machine learning. > It woke up and started walking. No one taught it to walk. No one trained it. No gradient descent. It just... knew what to do. A fruit fly brain has 140,000 neurons. A human brain is around 86,000,000,000. And we've gotten really good at scaling. Meaning with this proof, the first digital human won't be built by OpenAI. It'll be copied from someone who's already alive. Your consciousness is software. And someone just proved it can be copy-pasted. Start your day with that.
Hattie Zhou@oh_that_hat

There's a fruit fly walking around right now that was never born. @eonsys just released a video where they took a real fly's connectome — the wiring diagram of its brain — and simulated it. Dropped it into a virtual body. It started walking. Grooming. Feeding. Doing what flies do. Nobody taught it to walk. No training data, no gradient descent toward fly-like behavior. This is the opposite of how AI works. They rebuilt the mind from the inside, neuron by neuron, and behavior just... emerged. It's the first time a biological organism has been recreated not by modeling what it does, but by modeling what it is. A human brain is 6 OOM more neurons. That's a scaling problem, something we've gotten very good at solving. So what happens when we have a working copy of the human mind?

Minecraft was the greatest CS education ever made. And nobody planned it that way. At 12 I was obsessed. Wanted my own servers. So I learned Bukkit, Java plugins, basic networking, Linux deployment. Built worlds that only exist in my mind but still feel completely real. I broke wifi routers and fixed them. Broke Windows configs and fixed them. Tinkering, breaking stuff, and fixing it later is how we learn stuff best when we are kids. What is the Minecraft for the new generation?

Agency to build things becomes exponentially significant every year
𝓚𝓸𝓴𝓸@DevKokooo

Tony Stark is an inspiration for many tech builders because he has extremely high agency That's why Iron Man 1 is a fan favorite — it showcases all the prototypes, tinkering, failures and iterations This makes his character more relatable to the viewer, because it shows that even geniuses can make mistakes But the most important part is to keep trying and not give up

The human heart is a Turing Machine. Researchers figured it out with an Xbox 360. I realize how fake that sounds...but it’s real research published in Elsevier's Computational Biology and Chemistry journal in 2009. Hearts are electrically excitable media.
