Just published a new Blog called "Why Learning German Was Never About German" I share the unexpected social interactions, routine benefits and finding a better alternative to doom scrolling by learning a new language. Since X does not like URL's in the main post I have the link in the first reply. Enjoy!

Update: I have now figured out out how to hookup a power bank and run the python script on device. We are getting somewhere.
Okay I am slowly getting the hang of it. I learned how I can control an LED with the Raspberry Pi Pico. Getting Pico setup was kinda tough. Especially to find which python IDE to use to write the code in. VS Code was not that straight forward to use even with an extension. I ended up using an app called 'Thonny' and once I watched a youtube video then it was not hard to do. The goal right now is to build something so I can have a button on my office door that when someone presses it, then a light in my office will glow to tell me someone is entering. There have been to many instances of me focused on work and someone just taps on my shoulder scarring the living crap out of me. Learning new skills is always so rough and exciting.

Why did I just get into breadboards? I have no idea but getting that LED glowing got that kid in me really happy!

@PranesH_ @AravSrinivas Sure but then they could also use the 7b model. Well I guess the 70b may be comparable to the other bigger models for quick searches.

@DOGE And here I am complaining about the windows laptop I got for work. I need to be more grateful from now on.

Here is how you can do "vibe coding" like Andrej Karpathy
There's a new kind of coding I call "vibe coding", where you fully give in to the vibes, embrace exponentials, and forget that the code even exists. It's possible because the LLMs (e.g. Cursor Composer w Sonnet) are getting too good. Also I just talk to Composer with SuperWhisper so I barely even touch the keyboard. I ask for the dumbest things like "decrease the padding on the sidebar by half" because I'm too lazy to find it. I "Accept All" always, I don't read the diffs anymore. When I get error messages I just copy paste them in with no comment, usually that fixes it. The code grows beyond my usual comprehension, I'd have to really read through it for a while. Sometimes the LLMs can't fix a bug so I just work around it or ask for random changes until it goes away. It's not too bad for throwaway weekend projects, but still quite amusing. I'm building a project or webapp, but it's not really coding - I just see stuff, say stuff, run stuff, and copy paste stuff, and it mostly works.

@WifiMoneyPlant @MKBHD I'm not sure who you mean by "nobody", because I watch YouTube on my TV all the time. My living room and bedroom TV have YouTube as the first app.
