Since you mentioning Andrej Karpathy, are you becoming more technical if yes, what are you learning specifically?
-
i don't do "technical" or "none-technical." i just learn things for fun if they are interesting. and i go specific and deeper with them, because unless you don't, you can't learn anything.
so, no. i am not going technical. i still like to read philosophy works.

What you regret the most from this year
-
saying my sister that her meal wasn't good enough. the bruising under my left eye only dissappeared after 5 days
what is the meme of the year for you?
-
ough, finally some interesting questions starting piling up. there are a lot of options, but i will leave the best meme i found below in the comments
Describe this year within a sentence
-
reading widely is the only antidote against any charlatan bullshit
What's ur book list for upcoming year
-
i don't do "book-lists." but i can tell some of the things in my "vibe-learning" list:
- chip wars + learning more about the computer architecture + algorithms
- longevity + the practice of it irl
- energy economics's been fun lately, but seems very boring. might wanna cast a brief glance tho.
- philosophy of science - prolly i'll read some other works of popper
- also order "surely you are joking mr. feynman" from amazon. should be fun.
- a bigger goal is to collect all the stripe press books, which i made a little goal of the next year, given that financial circumstances bestow half a chance.
how u order books i tried on ur link but couldnt do it
-
i order from globbing. globbing is not a marketplace. it is a logistics company.
you register an account on globbing. then it will give you an american location.
you order your packages on amazon and you enter your american address as the delivery location.
globbing will then take your packages and deliver them to tashkent.
a pretty long journey. takes usually two weeks. and expect to pay 10$ per kg of goods delivered from the us
Any interesting event u r looking for in 2026?
-
chris nolan odyssey. would be fun to chip into the suzuka gp, but i am too broke. possible thailand trip early this year (but tbd). the world cup ofc. an official agora exit. tashkent marathon (will be attempting my first half marathon). and a few other things ig
top3 ppl u look up to
-
"i don't look up to any specific people. i am zlatan. people look up to zlatan"
jokes aside, there isn't actually anyone i look upto, everyone has flaws, really. but if i have to handpick 3 people, then (unofficially), i am choosing karpathy, feynman (ordering a book about him from amazon), and bryan johnson (i know, i know. a pretty controversial pick. but i only want to have the love he has for his own healthy. nothing else).
What is the most importat lesson you learn this year?
-
Quality focus comes from not deviating your focus. Say a bold "NO" to anyone and to anything when you are trying to focus. Multitasking is such a BS. And finish the most importants tasks of the day in the morning.

the art of doing science and engineering - richard hammingthe book had high reviews on amazon. the best seller in stripe press's collection. i read the preview, but i thought it was some science book that would probably bore me after a few pages. but it didn't. and it wasn't even about science (well, for the most part). hamming has one purpose from his coursework-parody book: teach the style of thinking. and, hell, it does. it teaches the framework of thinking needed to be a great mind in science. it teaches how to think when approaching complex problems. how to think when dealing with anything in science (and beyond). but you can't teach the framework of thinking by just talking about thinking. you need to show that "thinking" in practice. otherwise, it would be a bullshit book, and hamming would already be called a charlatan. so, the book shows that thinking framework in action. in practice. hamming introduces different chapters (information theory, digital filters, simulation, quantum mechanics, etc.) where he shows actual scientific problems and runs through the framework of "problem-solving" required to solve these problems. yes, the book covers some tough topics. quantum mechanics is not an easy digest. but all these chapters, they are not really about what the chapter talks about (the digital filters chapter is not actually about digital filters). they are about the style of thinking required to have a scientific mind. it is just, hamming has to be specific because, as i said earlier, you can't teach thinking by being too general. i think hamming's book is a perfect example of what liberal arts can offer. but frankly, i never understood what the word "liberal" in liberal arts stood for. i thought "liberal" was about the freedom of what you could choose to study. but it was about the freedom of what you could choose to do afterwards. the book allows you to collect the framework of "thinking" required to have that great scientific mind, so that you can apply that framework to solve bigger and more complex problems (beyond the mere simple problems shown in the book). p.s. this book deserves a big "ten" in my book list. but i am putting 9 only because it is hard to digest. not everyone can read it, let alone understand. and i think i will read this book again just to dissect the kind of intellectual masterpiece i just swallowed. @husan_thinking

in agora's r&d, there is one thing we ensure shouldn't happen: copyright violations.
we are working on another exciting project right now and i wanted to make sure that we reach out to the content owners asking for approval to use their materials.
and sometimes, all it takes is a quick email to turn things "ethical."
a small effort. a big difference.
i believe copyright compliance should become the norm in uzbekistan too

Kamoliddin (@kyspeech) is saying that I keep the same outfit (jeans and a sweater) in all my pitches just like steve jobs, and i might actually follow his advice lmao
