totally agree that unwrap is a terrible name for a function that, if you look inside an empty envelope, hard kills your program.

Whoever has access to Sora, Runway, Pika, Haiper, Luma, Kling… you name it. Could you please animate this guy? Let's compare image-to-video models.

You’re spending time to save money when you should be spending money to save time.

If you are great at something, people will care about what you have to say even outside your sphere of competency: that's when you should remind yourself to not get distracted by politics you barely understand, stay smart, and focus on what led you to your current position.

People with too much free time and no ambitious goal think that the whole world is constantly judging them, because that’s what they’ve been doing themselves, until they finally figure out a meaningful purpose, and realize no one ever cared: everyone was busy with their own lives

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Tesla has done so much that would be considered “AI research breakthroughs”, but we are laser-focused on making it work, rather than crowing about breakthroughs.

Having a large fleet is only one piece of the puzzle. Plenty of other car companies produce way more cars than Tesla, but are nowhere on generalized self-driving.

Ever since my girlfriend became an astronaut, we never spend time together anymore.

She said she needs space.

Is your iq actually 140 (hardware) or do you just have good thinking systems (software)?

Life is simple, you wake up, you get excited about the small gifts of daily life that everyone takes for granted, you also get excited about a few big goals that require you to grow into a smarter, mentally stronger, spiritually mature person, and you enjoy the whole process.

Everything you want in life, is on the other side of a little extra effort.

Learn to ask, “If this is the only thing I accomplish today, will I be satisfied with my day?”

[Dr. Julie Gurner @drgurner]

Being happy with the life you have, doesn't mean you can't really be gunning for the world.

Appreciating the moment, while building, is a skill that's worth mastering.

You get to be fully engaged with the now, thankful for the challenges, and build with clearer direction.

The 3 Stages:
1. You start off in life with simple tastes...
2. You get ambitious & have much more expensive taste...
3. You realize expensive stuff is great, but evolve to truly valuing money for what it can do, over "stuff," and go back to fairly simple preferences.

On my coffee table at home, I have a piece of driftwood. Its sole purpose is to display a quote by Anaïs Nin, which I see every day:

“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.”

It’s a short reminder that success can usually be measured by the number of uncomfortable conversations we are willing to have, and by the number of uncomfortable actions we are willing to take.
