I finished Karpathy's NN series, decided to skip books and math, and jumped right into training models. It's really fun, and theory feels like a waste of time until I build up a decent domain intuition.

I want to share my words of appreciation for Jane. It's been almost a week since she passed away, but she'll forever remain a part of my passion for nature and anthropology. RIP

truly remarkable hardware. i can't wait to write more kernels, but first i need a decent rig that can handle it

i wrote an autograd engine in c++ backed by tenstorrent kernels, and a tiny, broken, MLP. a huge shout-out to @karpathy for teaching me ML in two days https://t.co/GyWp6hDTt7

for the next few days, i'll be preparing for the tenstorrent hackathon. i'd trade a kidney for an internship, and two for a job

it's my first time working with a coding agent. let's see how it goes
