NVIDIA CEO, @JensenHuang:
"If you're still writing prompts, stop. Build loops instead."
The 7th richest man on earth spoke at Stanford for 67 minutes. No script. No PR.
This is free. I've seen $300 courses that teach less.
Don't just watch it. Build your first loop. Step-by-step guide below.
Be kind but also firm.
Be rich but also humble.
Be strong but also flexible.
Be disciplined but also humorous.
Wisdom is balanced between the two extremes.
Elon Musk is the greatest founder of our age.
From rockets to EVs, he's revolutionized the world as we know it.
But he's only been able to accomplish this through the focused effort of thousands upon thousands of individuals.
His secret weapon:
𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩
One man alone could never accomplish even 10% of what Elon has accomplished.
Take these 4 lessons from Elon to 10X your leadership skills:
1. Common Sense
The thing I might love most about Elon is his ability to cut through bullshit.
Case in point: his philosophy on meetings.
Elon says:
“Walk out of a meeting or drop off a call as soon as it is obvious you aren’t adding value.”
And “it’s not rude to leave. It is rude to make someone stay and waste their time.”
Amen.
By eliminating pointless bureaucracy he optimizes for efficient productivity.
Plus, f*** meetings, am I right or am I right?
2. Talent Magnet
Elon is a visionary.
The future he promises to build is optimistic, compelling and powerful.
It's a narrative that captures your imagination and naturally attracts talent.
With his typical wit, Elon once said:
"I'd like to die on Mars, just not on impact."
His mission to master Mars reinvigorated space exploration and pushed SpaceX to an estimated $150 Billion valuation and around 9.5K employees.
The best and brightest engineers on Earth are lining up to make Elon's dream a reality.
You can take this page out of Elon's playbook:
To build something extraordinary, you need talent working with you. To attract talent, you need a bold and inspiring vision.
3. Absolute Competence
Love him or hate him, you can't deny Elon knows what he's doing.
The man taught himself rocket science by reading textbooks for Christ's sake.
His raw intelligence and understanding of the engineering problems and solutions for his products inspire trust and confidence in employees and investors alike.
The best leaders understand and can perform the roles of everyone they are in charge of.
This lends a degree of authority that makes his orders easy to follow and enables him to get the job done.
4. Lead From The Front
The stories of Elon sleeping on the factory floor to save Tesla from bankruptcy are a legendary demonstration of leading by example.
Elon demands a lot from his engineers, but he can never be criticized for hypocrisy because he outworks everyone.
Elon has referred to himself as a "general" and actively works to emulate Napoleon. A contemporary of Napoleon famously stated his presence on a battlefield was worth 40,000 men.
A leader who doesn't stand back and order you around, but dives in right alongside you earns loyalty and compels you to your highest performance.
That's a wrap!

I got a Paid Remote Internship role as Frontend Developer! 🥳🎉
Here I've curated a list of Web Development resources that helped me land a job in 8 months:
The hash-bang directive '#!' is actually processed by the kernel: when a file starts with 0x23, 0x21 (which is #!) the kernel will interpret what follows as the path to executable and attempt to run. The message from Dennis Ritchie that introduced '#!' in Research Unix, Jan 1980

Over the past two weeks, I have been contributing to iTalanta open-source projects. I must say I have learned a lot from the exceptional iTalanta engineers. One article that helped me scale up was an article from freeCodeCamp

Weak men look up to Friday for partying, sex & happiness.
Great men look up to Monday for building, performance and solving problems.
We are not the same.

The law of cause and effect is absolute in the hidden realm of thought. Whatever thoughts we encourage and harbor will soon out, and be evident through our character and expressed through our acts consciously or not. Strive to build a God-like mindset by nurturing pure thoughts.
A noble and Godlike character is not a thing of favour or chance, but is the natural result of continued effort in right thinking, the effect of long-cherished association with Godlike thoughts. - James Allen
Today, what are you seeing? What has your faith pictured? Hold on to the picture that you want and refuse to worry about how it’ll navigate to you! Your part is to stay focused on God; stay your heart and your mind on what you want. Your hope should be on God—your source.
