My latest Deep Dive, published in Towards Data Science: Introduction to Lean for Programmers.
I couldn’t find an introduction to Lean for experienced developers so I wrote my own.
Combined with AI, it’s one of the most powerful tools you can try now.

This movie is proto-cyberpunk, it could be set in the robocop universe. It’s the near future, a giant airport destroys the city landscape, an evil bank dominates the drug crime with an experimental new drug. Mickey Rourke and Don Johnson are great in it.

Security by obscurity is just a matter of time to breach, the equivalent of the 4 digit pin in your luggage.
Encryption is a different thing, it’s theoretically unfeasible to decode (trillions of years of brute force) unless there’s a serious breakthrough in algorithm research (P=NP) or a flaw in the encryption (private key was the number 4)
Heard the one-ant hypothesis. What if every ant in the universe is actually the same ant, jumping back and forth through time. Another hypothesis postulates there is one ant field extending throughout spacetime, and every individual ant is an excitation of that field.
It’s not correct to call it artificial intelligence. The artificial part of the process is to create the lab conditions for something else to emerge, a natural gradient descent over a dynamic system. The intelligence was grown, it was discovered, not built.

The passenger uprising on Flight 93 still gets to me.
The indomitable power of the American spirit. Just absolute patriots and heroes of Western civilization. There should be statues to them.
“tomato is a fruit and not a vegetable,” stating the botanical definition, but there’s no such thing as a vegetable in botany.
No one says “actually carrots are roots, not vegetables.” Broccoli are flowers, onions are bulbs, celery are stems, lettuce are leaves, peas are seeds

people don’t fully grasp the full meaning of what you are seeing on this screen right now. we live in a time of complete wonder
I’ve successfully run the full retained MaleCNS v1.0 fruit fly connectome, all 166,700 neurons, inside Minecraft, with its simulated neural activity driving a fly’s movement.
V1 Currently in development. Built with the help of GPT-6 Astra.
Props to the @OpenAI team and @thsottiaux for this release. Code and mod coming soon!

Consciousness doesn’t emerge from brain cells. Brain cells emerge from consciousness.
