Honestly my favorite thing about switching to iphone from Android is sticking emojis to other people's messages in iMessage

Or better yet, a microcontroller with a 0.6 TOPS NPU!
But Jeff, it's got Neural in the name, therefore I should be able to outperform an H100 with my laptop

Great channel with tons of interesting and informative videos and projects!
There's been a lot of talk recently about ethics, review styles, morals, and personal conduct in the YouTube sphere lately, so I wanted to state for the record who I am, what I believe in, and more importantly, the expectations I set for myself. 1/🧵

Everyone should get to watch two overtired, delirious siblings try to keep each other awake when they're supposed to be napping. Best entertainment on the planet

As someone with a PhD, this is not a huge upgrade for AI
Can’t wait until they ascend to “dropped out with a masters and went intro industry” level of intelligence.

Y'all ever accidentally turned on your electric toothbrush before putting it in your mouth, getting a fine mist of toothpaste on everything in a 1 meter radius?

Oh...yeah...me neither. And I *definitely* didn't do the same thing with the water flosser...

While you're choosing between Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Bolt, v0, and Replit...

Some people just build stuff with Vim and make money.

Is it an adhd thing that I would almost rather not eat than have to decide what to eat, or is that normal?

it's always DNS. Always. Especially if it makes no sense for it to be DNS
⚠️ nerd talk

The most recent iOS build includes some of our internal dev tooling. Turns out this was caused by a race condition in our build pipeline. An internal build was running at the same time as the production build, and the build-number got misassigned. I blame DNS.

Writing goals as a new department head of a very small department is difficult. I keep accidentally making my own goals the department goals and vice versa.

I guess they should be similar and work together, but probs not identical ha

I'll have to give this a try soon. Nice to see some competition for Jupyterlab, this should serve to make both applications better!
