1. It took ~6 months to teach my 2-year-old toddler to read using phonics. More parents should try this! Here's why: https://t.co/jvP3Fej0gs

Amazing that a chip bricked in 46-yr-old Voyager I, preventing it from sending data, and NASA figured out how to split up and reallocate its functions to other hardware, sending code 15 billion miles away (45 hours round trip!)--and Voyager's back online. https://t.co/OOi1LPZGbT

Before accepting a startup job offer with equity, make sure you ask the company for: - Strike price - Last preferred share price (price investors paid) - Total number of shares - Liquidation preferences This will allow you to calculate the % of the company you own & value it

People were paying me from $3K to $10K to build their website. In some cases it took no more than 7 days to get it done. 🫣 Now that I’m not working with clients anymore, I can stop gatekeeping 😅 Here’s some tools to save you lots of money/time:

Astronomers have found compelling evidence suggesting the existence of a massive object beyond Neptune's orbit, possibly a ninth planet, by studying distant, unstable objects. 1/ 👉 https://t.co/g8YDzfp8z6 https://t.co/5kyZfgPUF5

Why did so many hunter gatherer groups around the world nearly-simultaneously and in an unconnected way develop agriculture? This has been a kinda problematic question in human prehistory. It may have been solved... by an economist? Studying the economics of... Earth's orbit?

Build what you need and use what you build. This is a core philosophy of my research. It shifts the focus away from publishing “papers” to what really matters — impact. This thread unpacks why I think this is a successful approach to science. 1/10 Or see: https://t.co/p3iWJ9LCzf

Reddit has a thread of famous movie scenes turned into Gaussian Splats, a way of converting a 2D image taken from multiple points of view into a 3D one. You can navigate through them, up to a point. I can finally play Citizen Kane as the first person shooter it was meant to be. https://t.co/SCmNfwF0rf

Quitting the rat race has become the new rat race. Entrepreneurship and risk aren’t for everyone. This is perfect for those who prefer stability. The only people who have truly escaped the “system” are those who stopped comparing and started doing what’s most suitable for them https://t.co/iqrotZoBAW

Saya merasa bersyukur pernah dipaksa ikut lomba pidato SMP, disuruh jadi khotib di mesjid SMA, orasi waktu pelantikan himpunan, dan lomba pitching pas kerja. Jadi, pas diminta jadi speaker di main event TED di Vancouver, nggak bikin malu Indonesia lah. https://t.co/rxgGhhZEUW

We should send rockets not at each other, but rather to the stars https://t.co/h4apedUrsU

O1 visa hacks for founders — build a startup in the US! Contrary to popular belief, you don’t need a Nobel prize, to raise any money, or to have a co-founder to get an O1 visa. You can be scrappy, a solo founder, and bootstrap. I got my O1 six months ago after being told I

In the last 7 years, we’ve paid $6.9 million in profit sharing to the ConvertKit team. While most companies hope to return money to shareholders in a moonshot acquisition, we’ve created a unique model to help our team think like owners. Here’s how our compensation model works:

There is no need to pay for books anymore. I am telling you about a website that has more than 20 million books and 90 million papers. And you can download everything for free : 👇 [🔖EVERY student should bookmark]* https://t.co/vjGyVn55qY

24 tahun sebelum Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka diluncurkan, Pater Drost sudah mengultimatum. Dampaknya sangat kentara hari ini. Ilmu pengetahuan menjadi produk, bukan proses. Pewujudan masyarakat ilmiah menjadi konsep yang asing dan kuno. Universitas kini menjadi MULTIVERSITAS. https://t.co/5tLUkRVgjP https://t.co/zZqDwXihyo

Many people are hating on this video, but I actually think it's a fascinating display of the two very distinct modes that exist to relate with reality: mimesis vs. first principles thinking. 95% of people operate by mimesis. Truth doesn't matter to them as much as getting… https://t.co/NHrLdSKTeg

MYSTERY SOLVED! Why does ChatGPT use the word "delve" so much? We've seen a 10x increase in the proportion of medical studies using the word "delve" from 2022 to 2024. But why? @alexhern at The Guardian might've just solved it. Thread below, complete with the trail of clues: https://t.co/koXHxVBhWg

Symmetry in physics is the ultimate plot twist. Years of training consist of a greater and greater appreciation of how deep and important symmetries are. Then, at the end, you find out that in the universe there are no symmetries at all. It was all a dream.

Halo Indonesia, apa kabar? Sate Ayam with iPhone photographer Sofyan Pratama was a perfect way to start my time in Jakarta! Looking forward to meeting even more of Indonesia’s creative community and developers while I’m here! https://t.co/jh8NnCHctJ
