The author is Vietnamese. And that language has almost no associative words. Instead of “my son will be smart in the future” you just say “son mine future smart”. That’s probably why some of his sentences are shortened in unexpected ways. But I still found it reasonably easy to read.
“It’s good to kill Nazis” — this is certainly the prevailing sentiment in modern culture, reinforced by the vast number of books, stories, movies, and video games that support the premise. But something important is often overlooked in this view of righteousness:
1. People who believe they could never become Nazis are often the most unknowingly susceptible to it.
2. People who believe they can confidently identify a Nazi are often wrong — a mindset akin to witch hunts, where everyone is seen as a witch.
Well shoot. I just ordered a Mudita Kompakt (minimalist smartphone) to help tackle my phone addiction. Seeing the Apple Configurator allows me to define what apps can be installed and the ability to remove official apps such as Safari or the App Store, now I'm wondering if I just want to stick to my iPhone and do this or use my Kompakt when it arrives.
In this insightful session from Advancing AI 2025, Chris Lattner, Co-founder and CEO of Modular Inc., delves into the creation of a next-gen AI software stack designed to unify the best of usability, performance, and portability. He explains how Mojo, a new Pythonic programming language, is transforming AI development by offering the power of C++ with the simplicity of Python. Learn about the integration with ROCm and CUDA, and how Mojo enables developers to harness the full potential of GPUs from multiple vendors.
Chris shares real-world examples and technical insights, explaining how Mojo metaprogramming capabilities and graph compiler support advanced AI applications. Whether you're optimizing models, working with tensor cores, or exploring new hardware like the AMD Instinct™ MI300X clusters, this session provides valuable knowledge and practical tips for AI/ML developers.
And how much do you spend on those ads? I haven’t looked at ads because I thought it would be too expensive for an app which is already not making money.
I attended a Japanese elementary school in California. It served food just as you described. Fresh and made onsite.
I then transitioned to a typical American public school. I was disappointed to find my only option was cheap, factory made, mass produced, strangely flavored and textured food. This stark contrast and downgrade has made me forever passionate about the topic of improving school lunches.
I’ll have to give this a read! It reminds me of this quote often attributed to Mark Twain (although not verified):
“For example, in year 1 that useless letter ‘c’ would be dropped to be replased either by ‘k’ or ‘s’, and likewise ‘x’ would no longer be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which ‘c’ would be retained would be the ‘ch’ formation, which will be dealt with later. Year 2 might reform ‘w’ spelling, so that ‘which’ and ‘one’ would take the same konsonant, wile year 3 might well abolish ‘y’ replasing it with ‘i’ and Iear 4 might fiks the ‘g/j’ anomali wonse and for all. … After this bakward progression, there would be no more trubl with kommas, semikolons, etc.”
I wish I grew up with educational videos like these. Simple, to the point, foundational videos that teach complicated topics from building blocks. I love the practical demonstrations. If I saw these as a child, I would have certainly considered majoring in engineering.
