Don’t Just Save This.

Two tips that have worked for me :

1. It may be strange but I have this weird habit. I never take notes while reading a book or listening in a class, except maybe names of people and resources. I find taking notes distracting and instead pay my 100% attention in listening / reading. Whenever I forget, I undergo the struggle to recollect again or refer again from scratch. I find taking notes as a crutch. The information will go in the notebook and your brain will ease into not trying to push it into its long term memory because it knows that it is comfortably available easily and instantly in a notebook. Even if it is a long derivation, I don’t note it down. I struggle and try to re-derive it in my mind everytime I forget it, or read through the book again. After three or four rounds at max, the entire information and logic enter into a long term memory and I remember it to never forget again. If you write notes and see it once, you will keep seeing it all the time and your mind becomes handicapped when you try to withdraw from it.

2. I always try to visualise any concept and reasoning using pictures. I think you have really understood a concept only if you can explain it to someone using pictures and the entire logic feels obvious to you. The field I work on is called differential geometry with its name itself having the word geometry. But most books in that area have only fancy equations and not a single picture. For me, learning math without thinking in pictures and visualisation is like learning music theory without hearing any piece of music and just reading musical notations. The notation in music is only there to systematise and facilitate communication and cross checking, not as a substitute for hearing the music. I feel the same way for equations in math and pictures. I always think in terms of pictures (see a picture from my book I wrote). And what picture to draw is an art. Once good visualisation is achieved, mathematical reasoning becomes obvious.

DISCLAIMER : I only say here what has worked for me. Experiment and see what works for you

CONFIDENCEMAXXING

Be egoistical. You are the priority. Straight posture. Don’t look around unnecessarily. Sculpt your body. Dress well. Focus on your mission. Become a mystery to others. Keep most things to yourself. Enter the room as if everyone were waiting for you. Make yourself comfortable. Speak slowly. Fear nothing. Don’t fake emotions. Make others want to copy your persona.

You can achieve anything you want if you act as you have already got it.

Confident people are not born that way.

It becomes their second nature.

The Side Effects of Breaking a Woman’s Brain
Once you understand this, women start acting different around you.
• They lean in when they talk to you.
• They get nervous, giddy, like they’re back in high school.
• They start texting first.
• They try to figure you out.
• They get possessive, jealous, competitive with other women.
And the most dangerous thing buster rhymes: They start changing for you.

You can wake up one day and decide you're done being the person who kept sabotaging your own life. no big breakthrough. no perfect moment. just a decision to become someone who wins. a decision that they were done being the version of themselves that kept losing. done being the version who kept looking for the perfect time. they just start. they work 12 hours a day, they show up when it’s boring, they show up even when nothing is working and quitting would be the most logical thing to do. they just kept showing up

most people never get there. not because they’re not capable. but because they kept waiting. waiting for motivation. waiting for permission. waiting for someone to believe in them first. the people who change their lives don’t wait for any of that. they just close the door, do the work, and stay consistent long enough for the results to have no choice but to show up. no luck is coming. no one is coming.
it’s just you, the decision you made, and how long you’re willing to stay in the room before the room starts changing around you.

stop waiting. stop overthinking. stop asking if you’re ready. you already know what to do.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ just keep showing up, do the work, and repeat until your life has no other choice but to change

The Full Loop in Code

[Empire-Builders @EmpiresPod]

This is Caesar pilled folks.

"On balance it seems likely that Caesar looked for at least a measure of companionship and witty, sophisticated conversation from his mistresses. Some of the most distinguished courtesans may have offered this, but in this respect very few could have competed with the daughters of Rome's great families."

—Caesar, Life of a Colossus (2006)

A Google Cloud engineer just showed how to build a full app with Claude from scratch

he spent 26 minutes live on stage doing what most teams take weeks to do

worth more than any $500 vibe-coding course

here's what he covers:
> zero to deployed app in a single session
> handling five engineering roles alone with Claude
> the exact workflow Google uses internally
> no team, no setup, just Claude and a goal

the people who figure out what Claude can actually do are building things everyone else thinks requires a team

that's exactly why I wrote a step by step guide on how to build your first AI agent

the guide is in the article below

MIT JUST LEAKED THE EXACT DOCUMENT WALL STREET QUANT FIRMS USE TO HIRE PEOPLE.

It is called the MIT Quant Bible.

And it covers everything the $500,000 a year quants actually know that you do not.

Here is what is inside:

Probability fundamentals. Conditional probability, Bayes theorem, expected value, variance, joint distributions. The mathematical foundation every trading decision at Jane Street and Citadel is built on.

Stats fundamentals. The Law of Large Numbers. Central Limit Theorem. Confidence intervals. The tools quants use to know when a signal is real and when it is noise.

Quant research and data science. Least squares, regressions, dimensionality reduction. Real case studies from Two Sigma, QuantCo, and CitiBikes.

Quant trading and market making. What market making actually is and how the theory translates into real trading decisions.

And then the part that makes this document worth more than most finance degrees.

A question bank with real interview questions from Jane Street, Virtu Financial, Optiver, Akuna Capital, Citadel, Hudson River Trading, Two Sigma, Five Rings, and SIG.

Not prep questions.

The actual questions these firms ask.

With answers.

The firms charging $50,000 a year for access to this type of preparation are not going to be happy this exists.

Nobel Prize winner Demis Hassabis just accidentally revealed who survives the next 5 years and who doesn't.

"One person who understands AI will outperform an entire startup team"

Most founders heard that and thought: "Oh no, I need to learn prompt engineering"

Wrong.

That's not what "understands AI" means anymore.

It means: building workflows. Chaining systems. Automating entire departments.

Not typing better questions into ChatGPT.

The split is brutal:

> 90% of people = still using AI like a calculator
> 10% of people = treating it like infrastructure

In 5 years, the 10% will run everything with half the headcount.

The 90%? Replaceable.

Which group are you in?

Watch the full breakdown. This is the only skill gap that actually matters right now.

THIS IS HOW A CLAIMED $5K - $10K/MONTH AI SIDE CASHFLOW GETS BUILT FROM ONE TRANSITION LOOP

The video is not about a girl changing into different girls.

It is a content machine wearing a thirst-trap costume: one hook, one motion format, multiple faces, multiple tests and a number big enough to make people stop scrolling.

That is the part most people get wrong.

They think the money is in making the prettiest AI girl. The money is in turning one visual mechanic into 30 versions, then attaching it to an offer people already understand: make more content, sell more attention, monetize the workflow.

The article is the same idea in cleaner language. AI skill is not collecting tools. It is building a repeatable system where one person can produce, test and package output that used to require creators, editors, agencies and a pile of coordination.

No model, no shoot, no studio, no talent calendar, no waiting for someone to send the right clip.

Just faces, motion, distribution and a backend offer. The girls get the watch time. The pipeline gets the $5K - $10K claim.

THE SWIPE METHOD BEHIND MAKING AI YAPPER ADS
│
├─ 📁 Step 1: Find the video
│ ├─ Search TikTok manually for viral yapping videos in your niche
│ └─ Rule: You want 500K+ views, organic, no paid label. Yapping format only.
│
├─ 📁 Step 2: Regenerate the character
│ ├─ Feed the video into ChatGPT
│ └─ Rule: Same setting, different face + hair + outfit. New person. Nobody can trace it.
│
├─ 📁 Step 3: Rewrite the script
│ ├─ Take the original script into Claude
│ └─ Rule: Keep the yapping structure. Weave the product in at the natural moment. Not forced.
│
├─ 📁 Step 4: Generate multiple consistent videos
│ ├─ Run the character through VEO 3
│ └─ Rule: Same face, same energy, multiple clips. Consistency is what builds the persona.
│
└─ 📁 Step 5: Drop in the product
├─ Editor adds b-roll at the exact product mention
└─ Rule: The script tells you when. The editor just executes.

Most brands are still paying $200 for a creator to yap into their phone.

We find what already went viral, clone the character, and let VEO 3 do the rest.
