@VanJones68 OMG — I was in line with you yesterday and saw you, and you looked soooo familiar. Funny - I recognize many people in your video. It only clicked when I saw your post! Take care!

I’m stuck here with several thousand people at the Houston airport. The wait times just go get through security are up to four hours. … Political leaders— get on with it. Put guardrails on ICE and pay these TSA workers. It’s not that complicated.

Very strange — the vibe in the TSA security line is extremely positive at #IAH . People are talking to each other, saying positive things, supporting one another, and making jokes. Very, very interesting. I love it.

@Schwarzenegger A small thing: I am on the dumbbell program but sometimes I have gym equipment available (most of the times only dumbbells) and it would be great if I could switch a session to the equivalent gym equipment session. Such a great app!!! Thank you!!

Hi @steipete ! You mentioned in your conversation with Lex that everyone should implement an agent loop and that you showed people at a conference in Paris. Can you share that tutorial/code? Thank you so much! Thanks for inspiring - exciting times!!

@waitbutwhy We have 4 - best decision ever!!!

We have two daughters (1 and 3). I really like them. I’m 44 and my wife is 35. Should we stop here or have a third?

@steipete Hi @steipete ! Thanks for sharing! You mentioned in your conversation with Lex that everyone should implement an agent loop and that you showed people at a conference in Paris. Can you share that tutorial/code? Thank you so much! Thanks for inspiring - exciting times!!

Loved the energy at Imperial College London today! Lots of hungry builders. Got them all free codex subs to kick off the hack week.

@readswithravi I always love your “starting with me”! Mine was Volt Rush - highly recommend it!

Starting with me, it would be How Innovation Works by Matt Ridley. It explores the evolutionary process of innovation through the stories of many innovations from the ancient past to the near future. Fascinating read and very highly recommend it.

What is the best book you have read in 2026 so far?

@garrytan What are you building??

So addicted to Claude Code, I stayed up 19 hours yesterday and didn't sleep til 5AM

@paulg What is your favorite? Mine is AI and earth sciences.

It's so much more interesting focusing on things that are unfashionable, undervalued, overlooked. And there are so many of them! People are great at overlooking.

@fmfclips Thanks for sharing! How is vigorous exercise defined?

Just 1 minute of vigorous exercise is nearly 10 times more effective for diabetes prevention than moderate activity For cardiovascular mortality, that same vigorous minute provides the protection of nearly 8 minutes of moderate activity And for all-cause mortality, 1 vigorous minute equates to 4 minutes of moderate exercise Recent data makes it undeniable When it comes to exercise... Intensity is king

@waitbutwhy @Adobe help this man!!! This is mission critical!! Thanks!

Starting the illustrations for my new book. The publisher is asking for vector drawings so I’m trying to learn to use Adobe Illustrator after a decade of using Pixelmator and I’ve never had an experience this awful before.

@SZ @tcboyle congratulations!!

T.C. Boyle auf Lesetour in München: „Genau das sollte Literatur sein: provokant“. In seinem neuen Roman „No Way Home“ kämpfen zwei Männer in Wildwest-Manier um eine Provinz-Beauty. Für den Star-Autor ist der Hahnenkampf typisch Mensch. #SZPlus sz.de/li.3337743?utm…

@tcboyle Knödel are amazing!! Miss them….enjoy!!

A sample.

@tcboyle Love it!! 🤣

The mean streets of Vienna.

@tcboyle Enjoy Vienna!! Don’t take it personal if they are rude! I already apologize for them 😉

Der Morgen, 9:30 A.M.

@tcboyle Wo??

Das Frühstück.

@karpathy Thanks for sharing! I find it hard to do that with books….

I’m starting to get into a habit of reading everything (blogs, articles, book chapters,…) with LLMs. Usually pass 1 is manual, then pass 2 “explain/summarize”, pass 3 Q&A. I usually end up with a better/deeper understanding than if I moved on. Growing to among top use cases. On the flip side, if you’re a writer trying to explain/communicate something, we may increasingly see less of a mindset of “I’m writing this for another human” and more “I’m writing this for an LLM”. Because once an LLM “gets it”, it can then target, personalize and serve the idea to its user.

@fchollet Thank you!!

Deep learning is not a collection of black-box tricks, contrary to what many believe. It can be learned as a principled engineering discipline. This latest edition of Deep Learning with Python is my best attempt so far at teaching it. It focuses on building deep intuition -- the theory and mental models -- alongside all of the practical programming patterns. You will learn this on a truly modern stack: Keras 3 as a high-productivity, framework-agnostic API, and preferably JAX for SotA performance and scalability (PyTorch and TensorFlow are also fully supported).

@xgrantgamble @AlexAndBooks_ 100% such an incredible good book!!

@AlexAndBooks_ How the World Really Works by Vaclav Smil is a great primer on climate and energy issues. I wouldn’t say this book covers 90% of an industry, but it’s an absolute must read for anyone interested in understanding climate change and society

Every industry has that 1 book that will teach you 90% of what you need to know. What is the single best book for your industry?
