Let's goooo
Launching Junction: come speed-run the semiconductor tech tree this December in Bangalore. We’re flying in students from all over India 🇮🇳 to a 2-week fabrication retreat at @_lagrangepoint to build equipment, design chips and engineer processes, with our friends at @hackerfabindia. India still needs thousands of semicon engineers -- the ecosystem to produce them isn’t mature enough yet -- we're changing that. Current applicants have built vacuum chambers to study plasma physics, RISC-V processors from scratch, scanning tunneling microscopes, et cetera At junction you will: 1. Propose a project 2. Figure out a plan with the Junction team. 3. Iterate fast towards a working prototype, with help from the Junction team 4. Be mentored by top semiconductor hackers and specialists. 5. Demo to industry leaders, founders, investors, and your fellow craftspeople Flights, accommodation and project expenses? All covered. Apply on the link below

Started a blog post titled "dual joys" and I subconsciously typed "dual jobs". Oh the irony

Humans should give feedback like LLMs. Read the whole thing before generating first output token.

Wow. I realize what it is suddenly. I subconsciously skim pages for structure and context before I start reading. Claude’s writing isn’t skimmable… or at least it completely lacks the patterns we’ve spent our lives subconsciously learning to recognize in human writing.

Everyone's upset either at the presence or absence of Indian deeptech money. There are people investing at seed, but it's also a truth universally acknowledged that a quality deeptech startup must be in want of growth capital, which is lacking.
Why are Indian VCs so afraid to take risk and make money? Someone should go to India and take risk and make money. Our story - corememory.com/p/a-new-india…
