🚨Anthropic just showed a 24-minute workshop on how to actually do prompts for Claude.
Taught by the people who built it.
Free. No registration. No paywall.
I've seen $300 courses that don't cover what they teach in the first 8 minutes.

How to load your websites at lightning speed?
Check out these 8 tips to boost frontend performance:
1 - Compression
Compress files and minimize data size before transmission to reduce network load.
2 - Selective Rendering/Windowing
Display only visible elements to optimize rendering performance. For example, in a dynamic list, only render visible items.
3 - Modular Architecture with Code Splitting
Split a bigger application bundle into multiple smaller bundles for efficient loading.
4 - Priority-Based Loading
Prioritize essential resources and visible (or above-the-fold) content for a better user experience.
5 - Pre-loading
Fetch resources in advance before they are requested to improve loading speed.
6 - Tree Shaking or Dead Code Removal
Optimize the final JS bundle by removing dead code that will never be used.
7 - Pre-fetching
Proactively fetch or cache resources that are likely to be needed soon.
8 - Dynamic Imports
Load code modules dynamically based on user actions to optimize the initial loading times.

Full of admiration and gratitude. Joe Biden preserved our republic and left it far more just and dignified than he found it. And he has given us all a chance to create a far better future. Let’s go. Do what you can.
LeetCode was HARD until I Learned these 15 Patterns:
1. Prefix Sum
2. Two Pointers
3. Sliding Window
4. Fast & Slow Pointers
5. LinkedList In-place Reversal
6. Monotonic Stack
7. Top ‘K’ Elements
8. Overlapping Intervals

10. Binary Tree Traversal
11. Depth-First Search (DFS)
12. Breadth-First Search (BFS)
13. Matrix Traversal
14. Backtracking
15. Dynamic Programming Patterns
I wrote a detailed article on these patterns and provide links to leetcode problems you can practice to learn them better.

Iterative, Agile, Waterfall, Spiral Model, RAD Model... What are the differences?
The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a framework that outlines the process of developing software in a systematic way. Here are some of the most common ones:
1 - Waterfall Model:
- A linear and sequential approach.
- Divides the project into distinct phases: Requirements, Design, Implementation, Verification, and Maintenance.
2 - Agile Model:
- Development is done in small, manageable increments called sprints.
- Common Agile methodologies include Scrum, Kanban, and Extreme Programming (XP).
3 - V-Model (Validation and Verification Model):
- An extension of the Waterfall model.
- Each development phase is associated with a testing phase, forming a V shape.
4 - Iterative Model:
- Focuses on building a system incrementally.
- Each iteration builds upon the previous one until the final product is achieved.
5 - Spiral Model:
- Combines iterative development with systematic aspects of the Waterfall model.
- Each cycle involves planning, risk analysis, engineering, and evaluation.
6 - Big Bang Model:
- All coding is done with minimal planning, and the entire software is integrated and tested at once.
7 - RAD Model (Rapid Application Development):
- Emphasizes rapid prototyping and quick feedback.
- Focuses on quick development and delivery.
8 - Incremental Model:
- The product is designed, implemented, and tested incrementally until the product is finished.
Each of these models has its advantages and disadvantages, and the choice of which to use often depends on the specific requirements and constraints of the project at hand.
Russia bombing a children’s hospital is a war crime. It’s also a clear taunt & test directed at the #NATOSummit.
Our response should be clear:
1. Lift all restrictions on military aid. Let #Ukraine strike any mil target in Russia.
2. #FreeTaurus
3. Increase air defense for 🇺🇦
Russian terrorists have once again launched a massive missile attack on Ukraine. Different cities – Kyiv, Dnipro, Kryvyi Rih, Slovyansk, Kramatorsk. More than 40 missiles of various types. Apartment buildings, infrastructure, and a children's hospital have been damaged.
All services are engaged to rescue as many people as possible.
And the entire world must use all its determination to finally put an end to the Russian strikes. Killing is what Putin brings. Only together can we bring real peace and security.
❗️The undermining of the Kakhovska HPP dam is not only one of the biggest ecological and humanitarian disasters in the east of Europe that led to the flooding of vast territories and many settlements, but is in fact the biggest crime against food security in the world.
The Kakhov reservoir was the heart of one of the largest irrigation systems in Europe. It was the southern regions of Ukraine that supplied the countries of the Middle East, Asia, Africa and Europe with wheat, corn, sunflower and sunflower oil, soybeans and soybean meal.
We call on everyone who cares about the fate of our planet and the environment, who declares their status as environmentalists and defines nature protection activities as their goals — to take all possible measures in order to record these violations, bring the culprits to justice, and make it impossible to commit such barbarism in the future.
