Another fun game by Neal called stimulation clicker. It might get addicting as it has the features of including upgrades to reward your dopamine for clicking 😃

The CTO of Tailscale and ex-Google staff engineer shares his personal experience on how he has integrated using LLM as part of his programming routine. He cannot imagine going back to the old way. He talks about how in the future devs might just use specialized packages instead of the general ones because of how easy it is to just write an interface and accompany the tests with it with LLM.

A good short read on where AI is going and which moats (dead moats, short-term moats, strong moats) will be disrupted in the near future by AI.

A great essay from Charles Eisenstein about outsourcing our thinking to AI and what are the implications from that. He gave previous instances where we outsourced human’s ability to memorize as we go up the abstraction ladder as well as power of films to shape narratives.

Physicists at MIT have created a new magnetic state in material using only light. This has profound implications going forward in various areas but specifically in making faster, smaller, more energy-efficient memory chips.

A cool side project someone built to showcase the scale, speed and relative orientation of celestial bodies in our solar system. You can speed up the time as well as toggle various bodies like stars, astroids, comet, spacecraft to see how each orbit in space in relation to each other.
