Also if this is on the path of anything the Chinese do in the physical goods world, inference will be rockbottom cheap in a few years because they'll invest in the hell out of energy, GPUs, research, etc. The same thing they did with EVs.

Only artificial barriers will keep people using some of the frontier stuff in a couple of years. No costs will justify.

I actually like 2006 twitter. Almost pleasant because of its obscurity.

- Only 140 characters - Increasing that added to the slop. Brevity was soul - No 'For you' algo. You had to find and follow the people you wanted to follow and then read all of their posts - RTing it was literally adding RT in front of the other person's tweet. - There was a 'like' icon (I think - don't remember) - There was no paid 'verified' accounts. You had to signal your official twitter account through different means. - There was no monetization for random clickbait ragebait content. - Ads are not that intrusive on twitter. That as a monetization strategy still works. - You only discovered people and not content.

Bro. I'm obsessed with this. I spent a good 2-2.5 hours on a trot with this. This was one of those things I always wanted to learn a lot about and this was just perfect for that. It wasn't that easy, I really struggled and gave up on some levels but came back and struggled through them. The HexRacer type levels are difficult and I wish I could skip through those.

Also when you give a solution, you probably need an explanation of why that works.

Can't wait till you add the additional coming soon levels.

Your feedback feature seems broken. I tried giving feedback about some basic bugs and it kept saying can't send message.

Please also add a waitlist to notify when you release the additional levels.

Funnily it seems you were already more organized than I am today before you had the *Claw. That's why you were able to transition to it as a 'life operating system'.

I have too much stuff in my head and nothing written down and that's beginning to be a hindrance to the transition.

One social media agency mentioned that the best way to build Linkedin followers is to have multiple job posts open even if your'e not hiring. The applicants follow you and you have healthy follower growth. Super-dodgy in my opinion.

Isn't this just salary benchmarking. It's been happening for ages. As far as I know they submit the data anonymously with only your job title. so that companies can benchmark their pay ranges against others for the same role. It forces upward pressure on wages for some companies too.

This. I think LLMs have been most helpful to me when I'm doing something that's not really in my mainstream domain. Yesterday wanted to know the structure that SAP stores invoices in, GPT-4 had a great detailed answer and even made me sample data instantly. It would take me hours of research to do it myself.

There's still a lot of closed off knowledge that's hard to access even though it should be open. ChatGPT is great for that.
