Insane idea from Opus 4.8

@ChShersh Isn't that part of the dream? To spend your free hours on what your heart desires.

Me: "The best part about having a full-time job instead of studying in college is no homework." Also me: <spends all free time on hobby projects and solving LeetCode>

i was shocked to discover that there are some people who actually can't visualize images when reading a book coz for me, an entire movie is playing out in my head with the perfect cast

no cause that's exactly it

If you struggle to describe UI transitions in Claude or Codex, these commonly used transition terms can help. Save this for later.

Storage of abundant Solar will help Lanka scale the Thermal MOUNTAIN at night... Godspeed...

Can't wait for cheaper GPUs. 2 years?

Found the main bottleneck in using genAI tools:

Does anyone know where to find Black Beans or Pinto Beans in Sri Lanka?

it’s in gemini, just create it in ai studio. oh, that’s for your personal google one account. for workspace you need gemini business. no, not gemini advanced, that’s ai pro now. unless you need ai ultra. oh agents? you do that in spark actually. no, not gemini api managed agents, that’s different. for coding use jules. unless you mean the agentic ide, that’s antigravity. no, that’s the old antigravity, download the new one. actually gemini cli is being deprecated, use antigravity cli. no the flash model is smarter than the pro model. unless you need pro. if it’s video, use flow. no, flow uses veo. no, nano banana is images. actually that’s in gemini now. unless you’re in search, then it’s ai mode. no, research is notebooklm. anyway it’s all very simple.

Ever deserving of applause. #TheWitcher3

@hexmint @h_liyan Good things are worthy of rediscovery 👊🏽

@_merovingienne_ @h_liyan Maybe I saw this tweet but forgot 🤦‍♂️

Few years back, my cousin told me not to reduce everything into "terms" (intellectualization/conceptualization), but I like doing that nevertheless; it helps you distance yourself from emotions, helps dissect and analyze concepts, helps avoid biases. Today I learned a new term:

@hexmint I remember the first time I learnt this term too, h/t @h_liyan : x.com/h_liyan/status…

Epistemic trespassing: "Epistemic trespassing is when someone has real expertise in one field, but then makes confident judgments in another field where they lack the relevant expertise or evidence." Imagine sportsmen, rich people, actors, ... generally influencers?

When you finally appreciate all the work your dad did for you to grow up

Had a wealthy friend tell me that the ability to decrease time to any outcome is the one skill behind every successful person he knows. A few I apply constantly: - Decreasing the time it takes you to get out of a bad state will make you emotionally resilient - Decreasing the time it takes you to go from idea to executive will make you wealthy - Decreasing the time it takes you to turn a failure into a lesson will thicken your skin faster than anything else

Vor genau einem Jahr habe ich einen Raspberry Zero2 W in Paraffinöl versenkt. Das Öl sorgt dafür, dass der Prozessor auch unter Höchstlast kaum wärmer wird als Zimmertemperatur. Seitdem berechnet er mit einem BOINC-Client für die Mathematisch-Physikalische Fakultät in Prag 24/7 Asteroidendaten. So ermitteln wir die Umlaufbahnen aller Asteroiden und wissen, wo die ihre Bahnen ziehen und auch, ob wir uns Sorgen machen müssen, dass uns einer in Zukunft trifft. Ein genau baugleicher Zero2 W mit genau der gleichen Software führt genau die gleiche Aufgabe ungekühlt aus. Und jetzt stellt sich die Frage: Macht perfekte Kühlung einen Leistungsunterschied aus? Und die Antwort ist: Ja! Und zwar signifikant! – 5,97 % So das wäre auch geklärt. 😀
