   In the cases of Harvard and MIT, actual, regular Harvard and MIT faculty taught the courses. That's a huge difference.

   Who will pay for it? Will countries with a head start, who got rich by harming the environment- subsidize, say, infrastructure for environment friendly steel processing in Indian plants? Or will US/UK taxpayer pay for EV subsidies for

   Yes. Much of US's production has shifted to China and other Asian countries. So, if you factor in consumption as well as production, the Western world does even worse in terms of responsibility for CO2 production.

   Companies are different from people. Very poor analogy. A better one would be a cities or provinces. And, yes, I believe every city should be given the chance to develop at the risk of short term harm to the environment. People from City B

    Why is no one mentioning Substack? It's an honest question. To me, in OP's situation, it's the obvious choice. What am I missing?

    Hard Boiled Wonderland and the End of The World is a pretty underrated Murakami novel. It gets talked about much less than his other works- undeservedly so.

    I read Calcutta Chromosome by Amitav Ghosh few years back. It's kind of magical. It deals with the invention of discovery of the method of transmission of malaria by Ronald Ross. The novel is set in late-1800s Calcutta. There is scie

    I don't think it is possible to do any really high quality work when you are overworked. Working under muse on a project as a technical founder is different. But for everyone else, which is basically ~100% of the workforce with a r

    Yes, spot on. Low cost of living leading to lower salary is one thing, but the cake is being able to exploit and overwork. In India, almost everyone overworks. No exceptions. Even in most government positions. It is just what people are wil

    These are ideas worth discussing. Many countries are moving away from ONE exam- once, or in a narrow time frame. For example, the research entry test, CSIR NET, in India is now taken twice a year, as opposed to once earlier, medicine entran

    That's an execution problem, not a principle problem. All humans are biased. Holistic admission has many more inherent flaws than test-score based admission.

    Okay, I am telling you to use Flax. Its high level API is quite similar to that of PyTorch. So, you will feel right at home.

    Why? Use any. I used to work with Flax, now I work with Equinox more. Choose any between Flax, Equinox, and Haiku.

    I read 3BP and loved the series. While not very high quality as literary works, the books are products of originality, and deep thought. I just appreciate that these books were written down. I kind of liked Exhalation by Ted Chiang. I have
