This feels like I could have written it! I am the same age and run my own clean energy hardware startup. It’s been tough and tiring and I have the same thoughts of just pivoting to an “AI Climate tech solution “ and get some of that money but that seems cynical at best and a scam like most of these carbon credits startups at worst. In any case, I have never considered doing something else for a second. Like you said, someone has to make the choice to work on the harder but more important problems, no matter what.

Here's the github repo if you want to explore more- https://github.com/amoslives/pomoflow

It’s an excellent article marred by the last line/ heading.

People do things.

Good or bad is relative to their own biases/experiences/ beliefs and moral compass.

Very few people are truly sociopaths who do evil stuff for personal gain.

Most do it because of the curse of the “banality of evil” (re: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eichmann_in_Jerusalem?wprov=sf...>)

Doesn’t make it right, but like everything else in life the reality is much more complex than saying “good people refuse to do bad things”

I can see using this to index the thousands of bookmarks I have and my every growing reading list and see if my local model and find a pattern and/or help surface anything interesting related to the papers I read

went through the whole phase of asd-ste100 -> caveman -> wait-what -> “remove mannered prose” And a few others.. Now I just use a vale lint script I made using what worked from the skills and lint the output (docs and scripts) and just ask it to write in plain technical English for its chat messages with full context. Skills just make the entire process bloated beyond belief (apart from the needless context rot and token usage)

The Chief Research Office at Open AI just put out this tweet- https://x.com/markchen90/status/2097400166554993041?s=20

Seems it doesn't matter if you opt out or in.. your data will be used for training

My response was not targeted towards Open-AI but towards all closed-source AI companies where your data is used for training and/or is visible to the internal agents whether you want it to or not.

People here do not seem to be considering the second-order effects of these series of events. No academic institution or enterprise will trust OpenAI, Anthropic or any other non-local AI model with their core IP. There will be severe restrictions on what employees at these companies/institutions can share with AI services even from their personal accounts. (Or I am just overthinking it)

This works well- you can swipe using touchpad; or use ctrl + arrow keys- free and open-source

I run multiple fable/opus and sol sessions for both chat and coding- I read a lot of academic papers and it grew to a point where I needed to use a reference management system like zotero to keep track of it. So I recently one-shotted a ~1000 pdf literature review folder into a .bibtex file to import into zotero. . Includes multi-step DOI extraction and multi-review steps to reduce false positives. Also can check patents via EPO API. And can interact programmatically with zotero via its API to add tags, notes etc. Very specific to my requirements and codex sol max did it in a single 8-hr goal session with very few bugs

The Maniac, by Benjamin Labatut. It’s a fictionalised biography of John von Nuemann and the birth of artificial intelligence. Amazing , surreal and unique

https://ciechanow.ski/ - The coolest blog on how things work but hasn’t seen any activity in a while.

Built a physics-based dynamic digital twin for an electrolyzer system with full equivalency in thermodynamics, fluid dynamics and electrochemical reactions. A similar level of complexity is usually available in software like Aspen or Siemens which are a quarter million dollars license/yr. Insane.

I hope everyone here has an amazing, fruitful and healthy year ahead!

It’s a great introduction to chaos theory and emergent phenomena. Makes you look at the world in a different way!

Work: 1. Learning about manufacturing processes for high-throughput electroplating. 2. Learn pymatgen and other tools for building a self-driving lab for materials discovery and testing.

Non-work: 1. Improving my writing skills and start my blog with a few technical and non-technical posts.

I have been using realdebrid with POV on kodi and it works like a charm. Saving a bunch by not needing to subscribe to what seems like a million OTT’s

Agent Skills let you extend Codex with task-specific capabilities. A skill packages instructions, resources, and optional scripts so Codex can perform a specific workflow reliably. You can share skills across teams or the community, and they build on the open Agent Skills standard.

Skills are available in both the Codex CLI and IDE extensions.

Any information when it will launch in India?
