@gtdguy When the student is ready, the teacher appears!

[Peter Gallant @Peter_Gallant]

@gtdguy I actually needed to hear this today, David! Very timely thought, as I have been working to achieve clarity on where to place my energy for the next 5-10 years!

You can have everything under control, a clear head, but still not know what to do!

@morgallant Love it, offspring!

[Peter Gallant @Peter_Gallant]

@turbopuffer @morgallant So proud of you, Morgan!

[Peter Gallant @Peter_Gallant]

@ariellelok You checked me off the list in 2023! It’s a great pastime, and you are good at it!

@ramit Your house is also NOT your ATM!

@uniteppl Zuba has been excellent - I also installed backup electric heat coil kit but it never comes on even when -20C outside.
I highly recommend the system!

[Peter Gallant @Peter_Gallant]

Just installed: Mitsubishi Zuba air-source heat pump - this sucker pulls heat from air at -25C! Latest tool on my #WarOnPowerConsumption

Published a write up on a technique we've been using for the last ~1.5 years to improve the quality of our chatbots by including semantic search results in the prompt itself. Pro tip: this technique isn't just useful for chatbots :)

I'm a firm believer that the next Google won't be web-scale. Rather, it'll be composed of mini-indexes, curated by you, and shared between your friends, family, and co-workers.

We're working on this, and if you're a developer, would love to chat with you: https://t.co/DYNzFEqU5P

we’re just getting started :)

Just tried the @OperandAI Notion search tool and it's insane.

Amazing work @morgallant. The Operand team is definitely leading the ML search world.

@erikdoingthings @morgallant @BananaDev_ Test-and-scale - keep searching for the right ideas...you may need to "flail around" a bit, and you'll build some products that nobody wants...but in the end, things can "converge"...!

[Peter Gallant @Peter_Gallant]

@morgallant Didn’t kids just used to call home when they needed some money?

@AndyHillMKM Getting Things Done: amazing productivity methodology

Check out and follow @gtdtimes @gtdguy and @PeakePoetics for some solid thoughts on how you can work from "zero base" email.

I get there several times a week - the trick is keeping inbox zero while doing what needs doing!

@DiamondAircraft I was up today working on my multi-engine rating in the #DA42 - amazing aircraft!

Really enjoying training at Genesis Flight College in beautiful Collingwood, Ontario!

A research report by Vanguard (@Vanguard_Group) on how to tweak the "4% Rule" for early retirement.

Thoughts?

Great 2-day flight training session at Genesis in Collingwood as I work towards a multi-engine rating. Excellent instructor makes all the difference - here he demonstrates how to get on the ground in 90 secs from 1,000 feet over the airport in the event of a major issue!

[Peter Gallant @Peter_Gallant]

@mjsibai @Aviation101Film Not at all! The DA42 flies very well on one engine and can continue at a modest rate of climb! Beats losing an engine on a single-engine plane…which requires a well-executed forced landing!
