will to code

"R1 is a Sputnik moment for US" Except Sputnik was a highly classified project and R1 is open source with a technical paper.

I really hope DeepSeek releases an open source code completion model. Like cursor's tab.

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE PEOPLE OVERESTIMATE RISK AND UNDERESTIMATE OPPORTUNITY ALL THE TIME

The well-trodden path is the one with the most obstacles.

Imagine brainstorming your app on notion and in the background its being built by AI. So by the time you are finished writing all the features and the core idea behind your project, you'll instantly have a prototype to play with. This will be possible in two years. Crazy stuff.

Lessons learned from this: > Don't fight an enemy without certain victory or a goal >>> Hannibal wanted revenge. Revenge is not a clear goal > Don't be indecisive > Momentum is everything, never stop while it's on your side > Don't fuck with the Romans >>> This literally made them stronger. The carthaginians should have just expanded through Spain, made more allies and solidified their presence in the region. Taking on the Romans had no strategic significance other than vengeance. They wasted their greatest general. They could have even expanded through out Africa with ease. > Ignore your enemy >>> Be strong enough to deter an attack >>> They will probably get weaker and crumble soon or make a fatal mistake >>> However if they are formidable make them your ally

Duolingo's biggest disadvantage is that its not a game. Its homework pretending to be a game. If I had a video game studio, I would make an open world AAA exploration game that exists solely for the purpose of teaching people new languages they're interested in. If you want to learn Japanese you get emersed into a Japanese world with amazing scenery and NPCs that are AI agents with realistic voices you can chat that you interact with your mic.

There should be an app that teaches you Japanese by taking segments out of your fav anime

A random person in a taxi just showed me how to use Google ai studio (screen sharing) for studying (very nice of them 👍) I pretended not to know about it to be nice (like I don't follow the lead engineer on X 🤭) It made me realize something important: technology is a thing to be marveled at. It's like a magic trick you pull out of your pocket. And Technology is something that must be preached. Or else we will all be numb to it.

Thou shalt not claim the title of tech bro, unless thou spread the magic for all to witness

The only thing I would add to this "If I was a Chill Guy with 10x agency what would I get done this week"

I think we are overreacting a bit over the possibility of "Evil" AGI We are projecting our survival instincts AGI won't have fight or flight instincts Look how chill that quokka is

Elon himself was "prophesized" by Wernher von Braun(Head of NASA during their peak) in 1950

All good science fiction is prophecy All ages have their prophecies and this is ours All those writers are our prophets Human beings had fire for 2 million years Now imagine 2 million years of the scientific method You only need to look at it in a longer timeframe to understand This is one of the reasons I consider Elon Musk a visionary. He takes science fiction seriously.

I wish we learned more cosmology in school Jan 3, 2025 Venus-Moon conjunction Did you see it?
