Para planificar no basta escribir las cosas que piensas hacer; también es necesario que escribas las cosas que hiciste. Así sabrás si lo que estás haciendo funciona y en caso de que te pierdas puedes saber cómo llegaste a donde estás.

It's interesting how AI is constantly providing false information and incorrect statements about my area of expertise. Fortunately, it's very useful and always right about topics I know very little about.

There are 2 career paths in AI right now: The API Caller: Knows how to use an API. (Low leverage, first to be automated, $150k salary). The Architect: Knows how to build the API. (High leverage, builds the tools, $500k+ salary). Bootcamps train you to be an API Caller. This free 17-video Stanford course trains you to be an Architect. It's CS336: Language Modeling from Scratch. The syllabus is pure signal, no noise: ➡️ Data Collection & Curation (Lec 13-14) ➡️ Building Transformers & MoE (Lec 3-4) ➡️ Making it fast (Lec 5-8: GPUs, Kernels, Parallelism) ➡️ Making it work (Lec 10: Inference) ➡️ Making it smart (Lec 15-17: Alignment & RL) Choose your path. (I will put the playlist in the comments.) ♻️ Repost to save someone $$$ and a lot of confusion. ✔️ You can follow @NabilMinhaz , for more insights.

I'm Boris and I created Claude Code. Lots of people have asked how I use Claude Code, so I wanted to show off my setup a bit. My setup might be surprisingly vanilla! Claude Code works great out of the box, so I personally don't customize it much. There is no one correct way to use Claude Code: we intentionally build it in a way that you can use it, customize it, and hack it however you like. Each person on the Claude Code team uses it very differently. So, here goes.

Ubuntu’s plan to replace the GNU Core Utils with Rust-based reimplementations is going exactly as poorly as predicted. Some Rust versions being 17 times slower than the battle tested GNU C / C++ version. And other Rust-based versions simply failing to work on large files.

Hay que separar el concepto de solución y producto. El producto/servicio siempre será la cara, la forma, la presentación de una solución. Si el producto falla o no tiene los resultados esperados no es igual a qué la solución es incorrecta; simpemente no se presentó adecuadamente

Arco has +150 reviews, 98% being positive ✨ Sadly, we are struggling to make people notice about the game itself, being considered already as a "hidden gem"💎 Our gameplay trailer shows how Arco works, and hopefully it will catch your eye 👀 A RT will help us A LOT🙏
