Thanks! I'd really appreciate your feedback!

I created a make-your-own-circuit simulator in python to help learn electronics. The best part about this is that it is entirely hosted online and people can just go through the le…

I think they are largely uncorrelated, in fact I'm willing to go out on a limb and say that they are anti-correlated. James Maxwell, who everyone regards as absolute genius, was a …

Hi HN! Sometimes, you need to let people know that you took your sweet time writing what you’re sending them. So I made an app that lets you prove it. This needlessly patient text …

Hi HN, in the era of agents where people produce upwards of 15 pages under 5 minutes, I present you "I wrote this slowly," a medium that forces you to take your time. Any communica…

For the life of me, I could never get electronics. I used to love the idea of me coming up with electronic circuit designs, but the arcane art of electronics never really clicked f…

Literally converged to this same pattern over this month.

My old thermodynamics professor used to say: the answer's always entropy.

I'm not saying you are on a list now, I'm just saying if you were now to be on a list, I wouldn't be surprised.

I gave it a book on human consciousness I was writing and it flagged it. This model is hilariously bad. Anthropic has defanged this model to the point of malice. No way am I paying…

i'm sorry, I meant attention of the project (as in surfacing it). It'd be worth specifying your methodology somewhere in the page. That is arguably an important piece of important.…

Does the post explain how the data was obtained? Or is it simply some kind of scraped list to get attention?

I'm not sure if there are any research showcasing the effects humanity has had in general due to low sun exposure. From all the benefits of Vitamin D and the recent human behavoria…

aka "the bitter lesson"

Precisely. People don't realize that it's all numbers. Given average IQ of people involved in a project is 140, an AI with an IQ of 150 can replicate each and every such individual…

Meh, it's the age old distinction between Formal vs Informal language. Simply put: Formal language = No ambiguities. Once you remove all ambiguous information from an informal spec…

Clever. My first impression was that surely this saturates the filter too fast as we're setting more bits at once but looks like the maths checks out. It's one of those non-intuiti…

Potentially because this is about the extra 10% tarrifs?

AI will scrape your blog and your personal philosophy will eventually become a part of collective Human Intelligence. That's a pretty good reason to blog imo.

Reminds me of something I wrote a year ago https://praveshkoirala.com/2024/11/21/the-democratization-of...

I remember it vaguely but there used to be a badge awarded for being among the first 100 people to solve the problem. I was obsessed with getting that badge to the point that I spe…
