Sounds like my next read. Thinking fast and slow was something I just started but it seems like something I want to read when I’m functioning better.

I agree. While depression and negativity leads you to see things practically rather than in an optimistic and hopeful way, the quality of life and satisfaction in a little optimist…

I would like to add to this. I have been depressed since I was a teenager. Anxiety Panic attacks, poor sleep, s*ci*l tendencies. I was able to finally get a job at 29 and first 3 m…

I want to know if I can use an LLM during problem solving at an interview for SDE jobs at Amazon, Google and Microsoft who have boldly claimed lot of their work is done by LLMs. I …

Definitely poor branding. It needs much better 2025 branding and it’ll probably take off in this AI search era where results are really poor tbh and very inaccurate at times.

Protectli makes great hardware. But unfortunately intel runs plenty of code with things like management engine that requires Coreboot to disable during boot. It may also be possibl…

I’ve been working with a team of so called ‘junior’ devs and coding is the least of the problems. Design and architecture is by far the most difficult thing for people to understan…

In India Amazon makes little sense. Neither does kindle nor does local book store. The reason for this is that both paper and printing here is cheap along with labor. The original …

Music on iPod or a Walkman or a radio is great. But have you ever attended live music shows ? Have you ever ‘felt’ the music ? Even someone at a local bar singing feels and hits di…

With the kind of funds raised by AI companies there should be 10 different ones sitting next to me competing with each other.

While the majority of revenue of Microsoft is not Windows anymore, I think Windows defines the brand much like how iPhone and Mac define Apple even though that might be part of the…

Now if only we could see inside a black hole.

Very simple: Big companies like Swiggy and Zepto will mine the F out of your data. Some of it is for their benefit but some of it they could sell in the future. These so called fou…

I was about to type: the man could have done so much for this world. Instead he chose the dark side. What a sad story.

The quality of dns always makes or breaks your internet experience. Personally at home unbound on opnsense with some blocking list has always worked really well for me. Openwrt wit…

Correction here: it wasn’t apples AirPods, it was bose quit comfort over the ear iirc. That’s why I could hear the other person. But I think they could hear me cause of maybe both …

I was sitting at a Starbucks next to a VERY noisy street on a google meet call on an M1 Air with usb-c AirPods (the cheap 19$ one) and I asked the person on the other end if they c…

Yes it seems like this is something to do with hardware testing. Maybe memory or registers or something that needed just X bytes etc for overflows or something. It’s really random …

And many companies like to have a portfolio of both, or an offer at least from the closest competitor. Tim at Apple for example played this game for decades to make sure he always …

>though nowadays they have more competition in that area This is what is called lack of moat. If today, every router beyond 1Gig was made by Cisco then the moat would be so wide th…
