@rohanpaul_ai Been working on a project where I just ask all the popular AIs their opinions on stocks and compare them. Its pretty interesting, they all tend to agree with each other and have the same biases. They love NVDA and BTC for example.

brb booking a flight back to Taiwan and putting my house up for sale.

back in America and just paid $6 for a cup of yogurt at the airport and got death stare from a barista for asking a simple question fffffffffffffffffffff.

Chinese is so strange when you first start learning it. I keep seeing the words for small 小 and heart 心 but it’s just an idiom together for “be careful”?.

don't care what these people are doing lmao 🫳🗑️

> trying to do laundry in Fukuoka.> options are six 100 yen coins OR one of 10 different payment apps from different countries via QR code.> WeChat pay is an option but doesn't work.> Alipay is an option but doesn't work.> Paypay - I don't think Americans can use this?.> Never.

It's mostly just newer people following branding practices that allow you to simplify reproduction of the logo onto a large number of materials and items. - fewer colors.- simpler design.You can stamp it into materials, reproduce it accurately with 1 or 2 colors only, etc.

What would you pick?

Love hitting em with that “ohayo gozaimasu” in the morning.

it's funny to notice almost nobody reads books - i.e. source material. Today it's layers of podcast bros misquoting each other and telephone gaming original ideas from thinkers who wrote something good 10 or 20 or 30 years ago. It's tech, finance, politics, all of it.

Also improvements in:.- amount of hallucination output.- tool calling.- instruction following.

GPT-5 highlights:.- $1.25 / million token input | $10 / million token output. Cheaper than sonnet 4. Slightly more expensive than gpt-4.1.- generally beating o3 on benchmarks in thinking mode.- will be a GPT-5 pro but no api access yet? This is the version that beats o3-pro on.

also getting hit with "your solution is perfect" 😂.

is there a long term psychological effect of hearing you are "absolutely right" multiple times per day?

What is your p(doom)? What is your p(we are in a simulation)? What is your p(dark forest scenario)?.

The code structure is what matters. Strict types back to front, simple and clear naming with vertical feature slices throughout the code base. Good linter rules, good tsc rules, many tests. Monorepo. It requires real intention. Then it’s magic.

Why not - quantum computing has no near term applications, everything appears to be an academic research project. SMR companies are all going to be in regulatory hell forever. 3D printing - not sure why this never has worked but it seems as hard as fusion to make work.

Why? GaN semis - actual good story of usage for power applications. Space - eventually it can all be repurposed for defense ($$). Gene editing - pumping out one-off cures for long tail of diseases ($$).

Themes I like: gallium semiconductors, space, gene editing.Themes that suck: quantum computing, nuclear (SMRs), 3d printing, lithium mining.
