Avi Wigderson is the only person in history to have won both a Turing Award (computer science) and Abel Prize (math). I interviewed him all about his field. We discussed:
• His intuition on a proof of P vs NP
• Why we use SAT solvers for most NP problems
• Zero knowledge proofs and their impact
• Quantum computation and implications
• Math and computer science's relationship

Summer holidays. The deal at our house: finish your Hindi writing, then you can ask Claude for whatever game you want.
Yesterday's ask from my son: "𝘊𝘢𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘀 𝘢 𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳?"
Claude Code makes them harder. He plays again.
He did not type a line of it. He built the first-person shooter by talking.
Look how far we have come.
This is what child's play looks like now.
@Hostinger decouple your main dashboard changes and sidebar changes. Its just awful. How am i supposed to know that a collapsed sidebar has changed because I entered into a domain space. frustrating and awful.
i've got a much better idea: let's make ubiquitous embedded machine consciousness so efficient, abundant, and available that this will absolutely never happen ever.
