Adam Brown (@A_G_I_Joe) is back!

General relativity is said to be the most beautiful idea the human mind has ever produced.

Most of us will never get to fully appreciate its elegance by taking the 20-lecture graduate course Adam taught on it at Stanford.

But in the video below, Adam distills the key idea at its heart so clearly and compellingly that even I could keep up lol.

At the core of general relativity, Einstein is trying to figure out the principle behind a particular coincidence: that the mass that resists acceleration and the mass that gravity pulls on just happen to be exactly the same. Adam then leads us through the path of insight which Einstein called his “happiest thought.”

Then Adam lectures on black holes. First, by showing how even under special relativity you could create a perpetual motion machine if black holes weren't truly black. And then, by explaining why the observations of an infalling observer and a distant bystander to the black hole would be so radically different

Adam leads Blueshift, the team at Google DeepMind cracking science and reasoning.

Which gave us the opportunity to discuss at the very end how close we are to AIs that could rediscover general relativity from scratch. Stay till the close for some philosophy of science.

0:00:00 – The coincidence that led Einstein to general relativity
0:16:42 – Gravity is a consequence of curved spacetime, not a force
0:31:46 – Why black holes prevent unlimited energy extraction
0:47:12 – Black holes are the ultimate power plants
1:13:50 – What falling into a black hole would actually feel like
1:18:51 – The three ways we know black holes are real
1:24:21 – The first time we saw gravity bend light

Argentina vs Cape Verde is the best game of this World Cup so far. What a game! 🔥

Every time you thought Argentina had won it, Cape Verde found a way back. If only the rest of the African teams had shown that same mentality😭❤️

The DMK ecosystem is attacking me that the school issue I reported was a lie I concocted to help the TVK government. Let me state the facts.

We run two rural schools, both free NIOS schools under the Kalaivani Kalvi Maiyam umbrella, one in rural Tenkasi and the other in rural Theni.

The Theni school was originally started and run by a retired IPS officer, a honest and upright man. He built very nice facilities but had to shut down his CBSE school because the state government demanded too much money to issue the NOC. He told me that as a honest retired officer he did not have the money to pay and they would not issue the NOC otherwise.

He urged us to take over his trust so we could run our free NIOS school in the premises. That is how we started our NIOS school in Theni.

Unlike in Tenkasi, where I live, the Theni school faced occasional harassment from the DMK government because we did not have a state government registration, so we tried getting state government approval again (this time for the state board) and that of course would also cost money. So it was in a limbo.

Meanwhile in Tenkasi we wanted to build new school facilities (we were operating in make-shift facilities, the ones that came in frequent photos) and we applied for DTCP approval to construct the new buildings. Everyone who knows DTCP in our state knows what kind of corruption happened there under the DMK.

We waited patiently for DTCP approval for the new school buildings but the approval never came as long as the DMK was in power. The approval came automatically once the government changed.

It is this DTCP approval that I posted about in X. I want to once again appreciate the refreshing change.

Not only did the approvals come, government people told us not to pay money to anyone for any approvals. I have to appreciate this in public, having endured what we had endured before.

This is the "lie" that DMK wants to attack me on.

I do not need their certificate on my character.
They can examine their conscience and ask why a technology nerd like me who is mostly immersed in code would post these.

If they think I would back down by their vile personal attacks because I am a Brahmin or TVK Stooge or Sanghi or whatever, I will tell them this: unlike you dynasts I grew up with nothing. I studied in Tamil medium schools. I know how to live on nothing. I have dedicated the remainder of my life to make Bharat self reliant in technology while reviving our rural areas, the soul of our eternal sanatana civilization.

I will not be intimidated by their attacks. I am unafraid of death, why would I be afraid of the mere DMK?

And if they had any conscience they can return the money they looted (they know there they keep it) and then they can attack my character.

I will now go back to optimizing the code of our compiler!

This is yet another fabricated story aimed at bringing disrepute to this great temple. To begin with, there is absolutely no evidence that Karuvurar was a contemporary of Rajaraja Chola. Historical records identify Esana Siva Pandita as Rajaraja’s guru. Moreover, there is no such curse associated with this sacred temple. Such claims are unsupported by evidence and have no basis

The shittiest thing about AI as a SWE is that while it's not the 10x nitro-boost that all the AI hypebeast grifters on here claim it is, it *is* a net ~30% productivity gain (once you factor in all the review, code slop clean up, etc.), which is *just* enough of a boost where you cannot justify not using it.

This is a letdown because using AI after years of learning to code without it is of course an ongoing humiliation ritual, (counterintuitively) *more* exhausting/draining than coding by hand, and way less enjoyable in general.

In Oothukkadu,a micro interior village
near Kumbakonam,Tamilnadu,I met this old Pandit ji( Kurukkal). People who visit Oothukkadu Sri Krishnar Koil don't even visit this Siva temple which is just 200 feet away.
Kurukkal is a Widower,aged 75.

Father resting at home in a chair suffering from breathlessness and ( Inguinal) hernia.

Like an old sparrow,perched onto a branch of an old tree,unable to take up any more flight,due to old age and fatigue,after spending its life time,awaiting its end,Kirubasankaran Jagadeesan,also awaiting help to pull on his life with his son.

No income... other than 10 rupees and 20 rupees,daily. He has a button phone. Both son and father are very soft spoken,god fearing and very loving.
