had super fun writing this. check it out
This one vague tweet started one of the greatest virality stories for tech Twitter. A startup no one had heard of was in a span of merely 13 days, worth $2.5B. We investigated 5k+ posts and 56k+ relationship ties to find what actually made it "one of the greatest". thread 🧵

Someone on reddit mapped all 9,110 NeurIPS 2026 papers onto one topic map, coloured by whether each topic's share of papers grew (red) or shrank (blue) since 2025. The hottest area by far looks like LLM Agents, with LLM Reasoning & Retrieval and parts of Robotics/Embodied AI, Diffusion/Flows and Biomolecules also growing; areas like LLM Post-Training, Graph Learning & Recommendation and parts of RL/Bandits shrank.

> The criticism that interestingness is a trivial end proceeds from a scale of values thus perverted and turned upside down.
last month, i read a book about setting crystal clear objectives and chasing your goal. right now, reading a book about having no objectives and just going at it, enjoying the process, but what will really work?

one thing i loved about his product is the focus music most music i've come across is usually a 4–5 minute lo-fi track without lyrics. it's earthy, cinematic, galactic, or whatever but what i loved about the music here is the unique the scales and melodies (lot of lydian - euphoric feeling and a mix of dorian scales - slightly mysterious feeling) and more so that no piece of music lasts more than 2–3 minutes. you get that familiar focus music for a while, but then it switches to rain sounds or white noise for a few minutes and then a different piece comes in this shuffle has been implemented really smartly. instead of having the same kind of music playing continuously, the changes in sound seem to keep my neurodivergent brain more tuned in compared to the average focus music youtube video

This is such premium quality, high effort work from Tharun and kush. It's visusal/interactive explanation of the entire timeline of how instinct got viral. - was it planned or just a fluke. - how x virality works. - how the people posting about it were connected. - %distribution of audience b/w vcs, founder and others interacting with these posts. - how paid posts blended in the organic hype. and other details. I felt guilty for reading it for free. It's criminal it has so less views.

Wrote an essay on my ideas on RSI Scientists and some work we did on self-evolving predictive scientific judgement. What would it take for an AI to choose its own next upgrade across code, hardware, energy, and physics and why? What could actually count as improvement? What constitutes a recursion?
