@pritishposwal 60K edu loan EMI?? That’s huge

Get the biggest size you can with the best resolution otherwise everything will look pixelated. Premiere, After Effects, all the editing softwares require as much screen real estate as possible. I have a 1440p 32inch IPS display screen. Works well for me. I would say invest a little more and get a 4K screen. You would be sorted for years. Sacrifice on the refresh rate if it saves you money, you anyway don’t need it for video editing.

@tejus_w_ @VedikaBhaia He still uses AI avatar while making news type videos. When he shows the office or real life that’s when he shoots in person. It’s a healthy mix of both

We raised $250M in Series C funding at a $2.2B valuation, led by a16z.

Exa is a search lab organizing the web's data for agents.

Your favorite ₹1 childhood toffee has a wilder origin story than you think. When Parle launched Melody, Cadbury Eclairs already owned the chocolate toffee space. Parle needed something different, so they brought in ad agency Everest and tasked creative head Haresh Moorjani with making Melody stand out without directly calling out the competition.

Haresh's idea was simple but clever. Show accomplished people, magicians, pilots, film stars, all stumped by the same question: how does so much chocolate fit inside such a tiny toffee? Copywriter Sulekha Bajpai was working on the lines, but she kept feeling they weren't quite there yet. On deadline day, while the rest of the team had already walked into the Parle office to present, she was still sitting in the reception, restless, reworking every word.

And then it hit her. She wrote 'Melody ki andar itni chocolate kaise bhari, batao... Melody khao, khud jaan jao.' Just like that, in a waiting room, minutes before the pitch. That one line written out of last minute panic became one of the most remembered taglines in Indian advertising history, and turned a new toffee into a lifelong memory for an entire generation.

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.

@subahwadhwani Instagram head Adam Mosseri said that Instagram would reduce the reach of repurposed content, TikTok likely to do the same to encourage original content.

Another way to figure out Claude-generated design is extensive use of mono font, either Jetbrains mono or IBM mono
