The US also doesn't allow AI to be inventors. https://www.uspto.gov/subscription-center/2025/revised-inven...

Whenever I see a tz post, I want to remind ya'll that the `tzdata` package is using data from `eggert/tz` by Paul Eggert -- a crazy good UCLA professor. I took his course once and in the exams, he'd like to put in a question he didn't know the answer to himself.

How about expose an API so that users can put the name of a startup and it goes through your AI agent pipeline to acquire an estimate? That way, you don’t need to know every startup under the sun and focus on optimizing your pipeline instead.

In the future, humans will just all be on hamster wheels generating power for our AI overlords.

I tried writing a free textbook as an undergraduate. It's on quantum mechanics derived from first principles -- https://quantum.chaidhat.com -- hope you like it!

do you work at Uber by any chance?

Thank you! Haha yes, I think some stuff are out of order (they were once ordered). I will have to revisit and reorder them again

Thank you!

Thank you very much. I never knew of those pronunciations, I will read up on them! I had a Russian physics professor once and he was very suave: he wore aviators during our final exams.

I prefer to do startups!

Thank you! Glad to hear you like it!

Lmk what you guys think!

Maybe they should stop pushing these bankers to do 48 hour shifts…

As a product of the STEM post-SAT UC system (UCLA ‘26), I never personally experienced “middle school math” being taught or a lack of mathematical understanding.

I’ve had my fair share of classes which throw you into the deep end and not many which coddle you. Never seen any professor teaching middle school mathematics. A lot of professors started off with a vague idea of prerequisites, covered the basic ideas and usually go straight into the deep end with new material. It is up to the student to make sure they are acquainted with the prerequisites, go to discussions or office hours to ask TAs or the professor, or just drop the class and do it next quarter (without penalty). At least in my four years at UCLA, we have ample opportunity to do it and the TAs are 90% empathetic towards “stupid questions.”

So in my personal opinion, I think profs shouldn’t be wasting time teaching basic math and there are more than enough opportunities for the student to learn it at their time in the UC.

Missed opportunity to make all variables global and public.

please don’t drive that fast (I’m assuming you mean triple digits MPH). It endangers both yourself and others.

That's very creative. I don't understand why the other comments are so critical. I think it is a good idea to always keep in mind new vulnerabilities and this certainly is one that I never thought about.

It is unsafe for wires to be handling higher power than it was rated cause the wires act like very low ohm resistors. At some high enough I, you’re still gonna be generating power P=I^2R which is mainly thermal and melt the wires.

thank you. I will definitely check those out!

Hope you like it! I made it because Claude makes really bad PDFs so I made an editor to fix them.

Maybe they're secretly developing Waymo submarines..

you mean baroque-n code?

looked at it. I don't think it works, as the other person said.

I think that in an AI-native company, the people asking the question should be using their own set of the AI to query the codebase, before coming to ask you. The problem that you describe seems to be more relevant to an organization which has not fully embraced AI yet.

This reads like a manifesto written by someone who's unhinged. Weird.

Good idea -- I'll make it send angry messages at 2am
