data engineer. I like Python & SQL

Holy shit they actually did it

[Charlie Marsh @charliermarsh]

As of Python 3.14, the free-threaded (or no-GIL) version of the Python interpreter is no longer considered experimental.

@pitdesi It's called rote-memorization, aka रट्टा मारना

@beffjezos Consciousness is fundamental actually, not emergent.

[Beff (e/acc) @beffjezos]

spoiler alert: there is an infinite hierarchy of difficulty of problems to solve in our universe, and infinite value to unlock from solving them

[prithaj @prithajnath]

@beffjezos This is exactly why AI will never fully replace humans imo. Humans need to decide which problems to solve or prioritize, which means you still need to understand how the world works.

[prithaj @prithajnath]

AI actually makes studying so much more efficient if you know how to use it. I used @GeminiApp custom quizzes to prep for my final

[Thorne 🌸 @ExistentialEnso]

If you're using AI properly, it should serve and enhance your curiosity rather than detract from it.

@ChainLinkGod Probably a holdover from the "move fast and break things" culture in tech that treats security as an afterthought. Doesn't work in DeFi

america is so fucking ugly bro

[prithaj @prithajnath]

@tszzl @romanhelmetguy Depends on whether you think consciousness is emergent or fundamental (Penrose et al, advaita etc). Emergence makes the idea of Claude being conscious defensible, and Dawkins is obviously in this camp. But neither model is provable/falsifiable, reducing much debate to just priors

Most people can't even bike this fast

A moment we thought we would never see 🤯

Sabastian Sawe has become the first person to run a marathon in under two hours in race conditions.

[Gergely Orosz @GergelyOrosz]

They are paying this much for standout software engineers - who can generate better software, faster, using Claude Code vs “just” avg sw engineers (who do OK with it.)

AI amplifies existing ability, and the best in any indusrty (who learn to use these tools) are in more demand

[prithaj @prithajnath]

@RishiJoeSanu @King53902E Vaush, Noah Samson, badempanada etc etc I don't think Contra is breadtube

[roon @tszzl]

@allgarbled @CliffordNash14 study the finer points of linear algebra, optimization theory, learn about the computational biology of the brain, hone your craft for years

ant/oai/etc: put the TurboTax MCP in the bag mf

@CNN I see no control group in the study. All massive buildings emit heat. How do we know whether LST changes around hyperscalers are worse than those around comparable-sized buildings?

[prithaj @prithajnath]

@yajnadevam Copium in the replies but it's true. Bengalis refer to other Indians as "non Bengalis". A lot of Bengalis are still stuck in Bengali Renaissance era, even though Calcutta is a shithole now thanks to commies and socialists. That being said, Ray's remarks are still true

[prithaj @prithajnath]

@bryan_johnson Advaita Vedanta from first principles

[prithaj @prithajnath]

@IntractableLion One of the most mind-blowing things I learned in math is that you can create a CONTINUOUS surjection from the middle-thirds Cantor set (which has a Lebesgue measure of ZERO) to the unit square!

[prithaj @prithajnath]

Most of "software engineering" is just being a glorified tool monkey. That might be coming to an end with AI though

[Hoops @Hoopss]

What opinion will get you in this position?

[prithaj @prithajnath]

@NTFabiano Interesting! Anecdotally I've noticed that coffee doesn't give me anxiety if I drink it after a workout. Thought it was just placebo
