I think education becomes interesting again at the PhD level because most of the people who are just studying to get a job are already out of the education system, leaving you with some very fascinating individuals.
In the next one and a half years, I will complete my master's, and after that, I plan to pursue a PhD in computer science.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I am pursuing my master's remotely, aiming to obtain a degree that will pave the way for potential Ph.D. studies, possibly in DSA or LLMs.
The prospect of working on frontiers, advancing technology, and solving complex problems is truly captivating.
Ultimately, I believe that diplomas and degrees are not the measure of success; the idea academia to me feels like a meaningful way to contribution towards society & future in some meaningful way.
I can confirm it's real, it's approx 300 km away from my hometown. This entire Karakoram mountain Range is something else, there is nothing else like it in the entire world.
Yesterday, I had a friendly discussion with one of my friends who studies evolutionary biology, discussion was around human intelligence. In just the first few minutes, I started realizing my ignorance on this topic.
He suggested many books, and one of them was 'The Bell Curve.' So far, I have only read the first few chapters, and it has already changed my entire understanding of human intelligence.

It's a fascinating book, but be careful. Even though it is very respected among mainstream scientific circles, but still many people take it out of context, especially it's race/IQ relation chapter. I haven't read that chapter yet but I did some research before reading this book. I thought I should let you know.
The studies mentioned in this book are conducted on a very large number of people from different races and cultures, you will definitely find something interesting.
Thanks for the recommendation. I will definitely check it out. This book is often misunderstood and taken out of context by people with less-than-good intentions. I hate when this happens to science because it can stagnate research in that particular area.
Yeah, they were enemies. Taylor also doxxed her. Everyone started sympathizing with Libs of TikTok. She even became a figurehead for the anti-LGBT movement on X, musk started retweeting her. This interview was basically the first W for Taylor in this entire drama. π€£π€£
I've made some more changes to NostrNet AI. Now it stores your chat history locally, and of course, no login is required.
Last but not least, I recently found a nice UI library, so upcoming updates will have a polished look.

This year, my New Year's resolution was to reduce the consumption of fast food. Unfortunately, this week, I completely broke it. I need to make a recommitment and be more careful this time. π«‘
We Android users are very fortunate to have @Vitor Pamplona on our team. The experience with #Amethyst has improved significantly. It has essentially become a premium nostr client, equipped with all the cutting-edge features.
Next week, I might finally become a landowner. It's a bit rural, but it's a beautiful valley. I'm not looking to build a house because I'm constantly moving, but I might build some kind of hut. I'll share some pictures next week, it's a beautiful landscape.
@Gzuuus what do you think is this a right direction

Explore Nostr with real-time trending hashtags.
This will now also searches for similar keywords if the user hasn't used '#'. Now Iβm working on trending notes, profiles and robust & fast, local sorting feature. Results are also faster now. nostr:note1xk5re8xwuepahr0l5955fuxd9mtq4y7v7jcj2t8a8avlk9rq3znqfp8sj6
Groq's LPU is faster than Nvidia GPUs, handling requests and responding more quickly.
Groq's LPUs don't need speedy data delivery like Nvidia GPUs do because they don't have HBM in their system. They use SRAM, which is about 20 times faster than what GPUs use. Since inference runs use way less data than model training, Groq's LPU is more energy-efficient. It reads less from external memory and uses less power than a Nvidia GPU for inference tasks.
The LPU works differently from GPUs. It uses a Temporal Instruction Set Computer architecture, so it doesn't have to reload data from memory as often as GPUs do with High Bandwidth Memory (HBM). This helps avoid issues with HBM shortages and keeps costs down.
If Groq's LPU is used in places that do AI processing, you might not need special storage for Nvidia GPUs. The LPU doesn't demand super-fast storage like GPUs do. Groq is claiming that its technology could replace GPUs in AI tasks with its powerful chip and software.
Bitcoin is undoubtedly the king, but there are also many discussions happening on Nostr.
Nostr is much more diverse than you might think, with mostly new stats in real-time.
Check out the demo (still under development) https://tags.nostrnet.workhttps://i.imgur.com/VHbxom0.jpeg
As I mentioned, it is still under development. Not even beta.
It will feature trending posts, people, custom and personal relays, a server-side render feed & more, It is coming very soon.
Today was a really stressful day, but thankfully, the end was equally good. I am truly fortunate for everything I have, especially my family. Having someone in your life whom you can always trust is truly the greatest gift. π€
