Recently got a lot of DMs asking how I got a remote job. So here's what worked for me.

→ Pick one niche and go deep. Something you actually like, that you can talk about without running out of things to say.

→ Be consistent. Do what you're doing everyday, even if it's just for an hour. It builds muscle memory.

→ A few places to find these companies: YC jobs, Wellfound, Remote OK, We Work Remotely. Look for the ones that recently raised funding, they're hiring fast.

→ Find the founder or their employees. Get their contact, X, or email, and message them directly.

→ Keep it simple. Who you are, what you do, one line on why this company. Know about the company first, don't message blindly.

→ If you only want remote, say it upfront in the first message. Don't let it come up later.

→ Send proof of work, not just a resume. Make a Notion doc, write a bit about yourself, and drop the links to your best projects. Add a 2-3 minute Loom video walking through them, it shows the actual effort. If you have open source work, add that too.

→ Don't wait to feel qualified. Just start. But have a few good projects ready before you do.

→ Even if someone rejects you, keep the connection. Say thank you, end it well. I actually got referred to another company by a founder who rejected me.

→ Post your work on X. Doesn't matter how much reach you get, it still increases visibility. I was getting clients even without much reach.

→ It's a numbers game. Do cold DMs every day, make it a habit, not something you try when you're desperate.

→ Keep the consistency and the hard work. You don't know when the opportunity will come.

现在顶级 AI 实验室的入场券，早就不只是有学术光环了！

最近看到一篇很硬核的 ML 面试复盘文章，作者拿到了 DeepMind 等多家顶级 AI 公司的 offer，文章里面有个很现实的观察：

哪怕你手里有多篇 AI 顶会的一作，简历也只是把你送进面试间。

在真正面试时，很多考官并不会围着你的论文细节聊太久，他们更关心的是：你能不能在有限时间里写出 Transformer 的 backward pass，能不能把基础数学讲清楚，能不能现场手撕算法题。

这背后作者讲出了很残酷的行业逻辑：顶级 AI 研究员面试，很多时候筛的不是你的科研上限，而是你的工程、数学和 coding 下限。

所以顶尖博士面试前也会焦虑，也要刷题、模拟、补基础。学术成果证明你有潜力，但面试流程要确认你能稳定交付。

这也挺反直觉的：做研究像艺术，找工作却像工程。论文、idea、创造力当然重要，但真正进门时，还是要过一套非常标准化、非常具体、甚至有点像高考的筛选流程。

另外，文章里对初创公司期权的提醒也很现实：别只听估值故事，税收、流动性、行权成本和退出不确定性，都会让纸面财富和真实收益差很远。

在今天的 AI 行业，别指望靠过去的学术功劳簿一路通关。

想进顶级实验室，最好提前把面试当成一个工程项目来准备：刷题、推公式、复盘论文、模拟面试，一项项补齐。

this is just the most ridiculous AI application i've ever seen lol

a Peter Thiel-backed startup that makes AI collars for cows is now worth $2 billion

and the more I read about it the cooler it gets. here's how it works:

every cow wears a solar-powered collar that talks to a network of radio towers and an app on the farmer's phone

instead of building physical fences, the farmer draws the fence on a map in the app, and the collar keeps each cow inside that invisible line using GPS

when a cow drifts toward the edge, the collar plays a sound to steer her, and a gentle vibration tells her which way to go.

it's like how a car beeps as you back up toward a wall

the cows learn the cues in a few days

so now a rancher can move an entire herd to fresh grass by sliding the fence on a map, without driving out to open a single gate

and that same collar is reading each cow's body the whole time.

it takes five readings per second on every animal, so the AI can catch a cow that's sick, injured, ready to breed, or about to give birth before a person would ever notice walking the field

so it's basically like WHOOP for cows too lol

and they gave the AI behind it the perfect name: the Cowgorithm

it's been trained on more than 7 billion hours of real cow behavior, which is why Halter calls the data its real asset and moat.

they know what a normal cow looks like better than anyone, so they can flag the odd one out instantly

it's already on more than 1M cattle across New Zealand, Australia, and a bunch of US states.

California even used it on public land to graze cattle in patterns that clear dry brush and slow down wildfires

costs about $5 to $8 per cow per month

a job that used to mean barbed wire, gates, and driving the fields all day is now mostly 1 person on their phone

I got sick of people complaining it's impossible to build anything cool in Canada, so I put a vendor list together today. If you want to contribute to it lmk!!

600+ supply chain companies. Enjoy. :)

My dear front-end developers (and anyone who’s interested in the future of interfaces):

I have crawled through depths of hell to bring you, for the foreseeable years, one of the more important foundational pieces of UI engineering (if not in implementation then certainly at least in concept):
Fast, accurate and comprehensive userland text measurement algorithm in pure TypeScript, usable for laying out entire web pages without CSS, bypassing DOM measurements and reflow

my article on how to make
$800,000/yr with apps

was viewed by 3M people
It will literally change your life

But out of 3M probably only 10,000 people Actually read it fully. (0.01%)

So I created this speed reading version of it using higgsfield vibe motion.

Vibe motion is basically Claude
with video editing skills

So I made this in 1 prompt.

If you haven’t read it,
here’s is the super speed version:
