For me, some of the best books I read this year, are: - Ishmael by Daniel Quinn, I have seen many narratives on the fault at the core of current values and goals of human civilization, but never saw a laid out alternative. Whatever it might

Well, it is named GhosTTY. TTY being in the end, it is a terminal emulator. That's obvious to me. Just like AlacriTTY, PuTTY, KiTTY, etc.

I also have more and better friends at 25 then I had when I was 10 or 15 or 17. One of the reasons, I think, is, being able to choose your friends. In schools, I was forced to see the same group of people every day, for years.

I definitely agree with this. Also know that things outside of sports work great too, like amateur chess/photography club, local library reading groups, local hackers' club, voluntary organisations, etc. I am saying this from expe

You took an extreme example (HP). But only a handful states in India have that restriction where outsiders are not allowed to buy land. There are many all-India services and people are transferred all across India. Many work in different st

My distant cousing, a Bengali, named, say, Rama Dass, also grew up in Tamil Nadu. His name was Tamilized to D. Rama or Rama D.- even though Dass was a family surname. > States in India are basically different countries, and the existing

Gukesh's last name is Dommaraju. It's his family surname. He is a Telugu person by birth, but he grew up in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. In the state of Tamil Nadu, people often take their father's given names as their last names, an

I have pondered much on such things. Not every developer gets to work on Sora, Quantum AI chip, or CUDA source code. For the very vast majority, it is facing stupid PMs, MBA bosses, daily standups, and getting fired with no fault of your ow

Ollama and Perplexity. I can do limitless experiments of all kinds with different LLModels locally on my machine, thanks to Ollama. Perplixity is the product that replaced Google for me. It's fast, crisp, and reliable.

That line of argument assumes that all of this money would have actually gone to streaming sites. That's a lie they tell. People buy services from/use pirate site because either they could not afford it in the legal way, or cont

When you steal a bike or shoplift, there are actual atoms that change place, change ownership, and the legitimate owners don't have access to those real atoms anymore. Piracy isn't like that. Copying doesn't remove the orig

The British left India because it was hard to keep and maintain. And a large deciding factor was the Naval Mutiny of 1946. And the battle brought to India through Subhash Bose with Japanese aid was also a huge factor. They just decided Indi

If you are doing this, I suggest giving the Perplexity app a try. It's very fast, convenient, and accurate. It was Perplexity, and not ChatGPT that reduced my Google usage.

Wow, I also thought of the work as deeply philosophical. I also read a bunch of other philosophy, and found that Egan's hypothesis overlaps significantly with both Advaita Vedanta and Buddhist concept of soul (pali: puggala). Did anybo

That's a poor way to find good books? I liked 3BP, and I also liked Permutation City and Cryptonomicon. Yet I met a lot of people who didn't like 3BP, but liked the latter ones.

If you have some time, visit Vizag. It has some cool beaches, and the city has both hills and beaches. I liked the vibe of the city. Also visit the Buddha statue in Hussein Sagar.

Writing is very underrated way of thinking, but I can recommend it highly. Start journaling and/or writing essays. Just write down what you think, feel, want to communicate, and what you understand. Just be clear and honest. pg has rep

Totally agree. Loved this book. Reading "The Little Prover" right now. I can't get enough of this style of textbook writing.
