check out my interview with @DeGatchi on @ScrapingBits!!
it was a lot of fun (link follows)
an extra kudos to DeGatchi on his amazing editing effort
I have a manageable but noticeable stutter as well as a tendency to slur speech
the editing completely fixes all of this!
Winding down for the night? Getting your day started?
We have the perfect soundtrack for you. Tune in to @leofanxiong's conversation with @DeGatchi on @ScrapingBits about ML cryptography, ZKP hardware, and building a company! 🎙️

Had another fun conversation with @DeGatchi on @ScrapingBits!
https://t.co/I8lIMbvCMI
Some things we covered:
-- Why go through lots of concrete computational examples first before jumping into abstract proofs
-- The importance of having a zoo of concrete examples
-- The evolution of Math Academy's content
-- How to identify the right "chunks" of information and the right prerequisites for the knowledge graph
-- How to continue learning math as efficiently as possible after you finish all the courses on Math Academy
-- Frustrations with the lack of existing ML learning resources
-- How to know whether you're ready for ML projects or you need to learn more math
-- The blessing and curse of intellectual body dysmorphia
-- Harnessing reality distortion as a helpful tool
-- Journaling and documenting one's life
I had a great time talking with @DeGatchi on the @ScrapingBits podcast. Give it a listen if you'd like to learn more about @_MathAcademy_, or at least how I think about it.
If my writing/podcasts have resonated with you then you will probably enjoy @exojason even more -- best place to start would be his recent appearance on the @ScrapingBits podcast with @DeGatchi.
We've spent thousands of hours in conversation over the past 6-7 years and those conversations have been a huge force in shaping my perspectives on education and talent development. (I met Jason and his wife Sandy right after graduating college, 21 years old, and they have been the biggest positive force in my life second only to my parents and wife.)
Jason is almost the most prolific and interesting writer I know... and I say "almost" only because he never writes anything down 🤦♂️
So, if you have a chance to listen to him give a full overview of the past / present / future of @_MathAcademy_, perspectives on math education & talent development, some of his own backstory... you absolutely gotta take advantage of it. 👇 (tip: 1.6x speed)
I recorded the longest episode on @ScrapingBits to date with the founder of @_MathAcademy_, @exojason!
Such a fantastic story, from being offered the CTO position at Uber to pursuing his startup for 8+ years and now reaping the rewards of creating the fastest way to learn math to understand Machine Learning.
I'm a big endorser of the platform and can confirm it's the real deal (because I'm actively using it).
Definitely an episode you should listen to if you're learning math / doing startup life.

We updated the audio of #110 of @ScrapingBits. Didn't realise the 2nd half it was so messed up. There are still little glimpses of glitches but overall it's a great episode that can finally be fully enjoyed. Choatic signal processing + information theory! https://t.co/e8TxtMH55y
On @ScrapingBits I recently spoke w @jbwhitmore about astrophysics, learning math w @_MathAcademy_, game theory in ad auctions and a bunch more!
https://t.co/rUfvHR3b0f
On @ScrapingBits i spoke w @Pseudomanifold about topological machine learning, topological data analysis and everything math!
I found this episode to be super insightful, opening my eyes to the wonderful branch of topology. Highly recommend listening!

Recently did a @ScrapingBits episode w/ @Jeyffre about computational complexity and zero knowledge proofs https://t.co/uvnkORPDKK very interesting if you’re into these things (also we’re on apple podcasts now)
Ayyy 🤝 yeah from what I can gather so far, plonkish is a bit more involved. Super interested by Noir - these two @ScrapingBits eps were great and I definitely need to re-listen now I’m finally getting stuck in learning, but that sounds about right to me!

my AirPods are not cancelling noise of a screaming kiddo on the airplane. Bruh is not willing to come to Bruhsels
Cannot peacefully listen to @ScrapingBits episode with @DeGatchi & @msolomon44
about to airdrop a dummy
Enjoyed my conversation with @DeGatchi
-> Timing Games, Solana MEV, DEX orderbook MEV mitigation…
.. and an aside on fish tanks & lava lamps as a source of randomness.
On @ScrapingBits I talked w/ @maxekaplan about
👩💼 Managing a team of 80+ people at @krakenfx
🏭 @solana validator stake weight QoS & Dev-ops
🚪 Liquid staking w/ @edgevana
⁉️ And so much more...
Out now!
