Slowly rebuilding my website using 11ty. It is a pleasure to work with. Windsurf IDE helps me most. When it fails, 11ty discord community support is awesome. Now site fetches stats from Plausible and adds both popular and trending posts. Doesn't it look cool? https://t.co/YDckpg4724

Rather paradoxical tip for career building: • early in your career say yes to everything • late in career say no more But we flip this Early on we don’t feel confident so we say no more (self-reject) Later we think we have ability and we say yes often

Looks like RTFM is even more valid in the GenAI coding days.

New year gift came in early. @SejalSud sent me this heart-warming note in such a beautiful handwriting. Thank you Sejal. https://t.co/fp0tTAOuOT

My question: what is the difference between llama3.2 and llama3.2 instruct I asked two LLMs: locally running llama3.2B instruct. Answers are so varied. Tell me which one is closer to relying for learning? https://t.co/79b80zu2rt

My week notes for the 52nd week Sister & family drove all the way from Bangalore. Looks like Indian infra (roads, cars, other ecosystem) is allowing many people to take such long trips. Trying my hands on using LLMs to improve my blog. You will see more posts in the future. https://t.co/bmV0GylOA8

We can compare talent migration from other countries if the reasons are similar (if not same). Did talent from Korea/Taiwan/Japan migrate because of babu raj, tough-doing-business, corruption? If so the argument is valid. Otherwise ... https://t.co/ah0RY76QFr

Burn the house to catch the mouse. No attempt to curb bribe (arrest all those IAS officers who amassed wealth -> will lead to leaking info about politicians ....). But constrain everyone else with all these stupid actions. https://t.co/pyi6ud0atf

Want to write ld+json schema for my blog. Copied Person schema from https://t.co/nhD4c4Mupt and tried validating from: https://t.co/dF7x3vgjVO Validation fails.

As long they attack the other it is good When they attack me, oh my god, how can they do this? History repeats all the time. Just that idiots don't learn. https://t.co/iIRU7C0E5i

Wanted to test running local llm models for fine-tuning my blog for SEO and writing twitter threads. Tried both https://t.co/rXBLNF8v3n & https://t.co/nQjV8IRy0U Both were disappointing 👇

Microsoft does what it does best. It is offering GitHub copilot for free now that cursor and windsurf are rising in popularity among devs. Same tactic they used to gain market share from PowerBuilder

The irony of life is the thing you chase elude you but when you stop chasing you get it; in fact more of it. True for • happiness • money • love • fame Why is that?

Shared a thread / post on "Setting three types of goals" on LinkedIn, Bluesky, Twitter, and Threads. LinkedIn sent the most traffic. Thread sent 1 Bsky & Twitter didn't send any Lot of engagement on bsky/twitter/LI Will continue to experiment in the coming days https://t.co/YUbyH30L3e

Started reading "The Courage To Be Disliked " Hooked to the book. Reading whenever I have time (sometimes making time while waiting etc). Really loving it. Get it here: https://t.co/XeZnj8Ek9Q

2024 in review: A year guided by the principle "Snowballs, Not Slot Machines" 🏔️ Small, consistent efforts compound into meaningful momentum. Here's how it played out... 1/11

I am afraid India lost her last philosopher-king

In pursuit of minimalism been trying to cut down on apps I use. Looks like I have to use multiple apps even for note taking. I love both obsidian & logseq and can’t seem to reconcile into just one

"Get the facts, or the facts will get you. And when you get them, get them right, or they will get you wrong." - Dr. Thomas Fuller

I disagree. Much more easier to unite public towards a cause than uniting / fixing politicians. If SK doesn't piss off Trump & team and knows how to work with egoistic team (which I'm sure he knows), he will get this done even if public doesn't like. Other way doesn't work https://t.co/Q95ZWIkMPW

How should I go about if I want to chat with my notes within obsidian vaults? Not just querying but may be create summaries, new notes etc.

In our colony people park their cars on the road, often blocking the way. And if you ring the bell and ask them to move their car which is blocking the way, they get offended. This is new India.

Have any of you used cursor type of Agentic IDEs in an enterprise? What’s your experience? What are the dos & donts?

As the year ends, most of us will be looking to set new goals. There are 3 types of goals you need to set, and most people only focus on one. Let me break down the hierarchy of goal-setting that actually works:

Our neighbor's daughter came for holiday. Parked her car in front of our gate which we were ok. Whenever we had to go out, she had to take her car. By the evening, she was upset that she has to take it 3 times already! Entitlement!

What is your take on using GenAI? After I posted about using GenAI to generate images, an artist tweeted > The image is created by scraping artists’ work without their consent, with no remuneration or credit, and directly profiting the AI company that did it. He has a point.

We don’t ask questions as adults because we didn’t get answers as kids. Very few kids can retain curiosity to keep asking questions even when they are told to shut up.

Wondering how these Agentic IDE’s will drive growth of digital products? If cursor can write CSS, why I need tailwind or bulma?

I just want to view traffic challans issued against my car and pay it. Why I need to provide mobile number, link with aadhar I don't know. https://t.co/0nKteGDlas

Published weekly notes here: https://t.co/KWyKUCkA1M Been publishing for the last 18 weeks or so.

Do you use both logseq & obsidian? What’s your experience are your use cases? So you keep these notes separate or do you sync them?

What are the reasons people look into traffic for competitor websites? I’ve always been - improve yourself. Competition is for losers. But in SEO that seems to be a hot topic. Why?

GoI hired experts before - Sam Pitroda, Nandan, MMS, Ranjan ... We demean these experts and then say we don't hire experts into GoI. What we are really saying is: GoI doesn't hire experts I like. https://t.co/Gc6cIuNAtZ

I taught writing weekly retros to my boys. And they have published their weekly retros for the 51st week. You can read them here: - https://t.co/0UVj153RmW - https://t.co/zmBdDBA4LF https://t.co/XGOIAkQUYR

Is it possible to search here on X only within your likes?

This is one of the most challenging aspect of life. Finding answers to conflicting questions is one thing. Living that answer is entirely another https://t.co/rFztGsKuJ5

Does Bluesky sends more traffic on links than Twitter? Looks like Twitter still sends more traffic than Bluesky. I posted link in the tweet itself rather than as 2nd tweet (ex: https://t.co/gbAqqdqglo ) https://t.co/dDNRc7h71b

Types of teachers and coaches (applicable to managers too) https://t.co/ISeRrMOd0A

There is an increasing interest in homeschooling in India. First I thought it might be because of covid. But it is long gone. Is it high school fees? Are people dissatisfied with curriculum? What could be the reasons? https://t.co/IlOp3LSY67

How can we use Agentic code editors to improve SEO of blogs? Any ideas?

> If you see something below standard and do nothing, then you’ve set a new standard This is an extremely difficult thing to keep up in business. There are always issues wanting your attention. So you prioritise one over the other. And that can unknowingly set a low standard.

I have started publishing my sermons on my site. The first one is here: https://t.co/yywMRVs5cN I talk about: • the responsibilities of God's army • the qualifications to enter and grow in God's army • the weapons of God's army Hope you read.

#til: Flag of European Union "might" have been inspired by Revelation 12:1 https://t.co/c4l1zpDugz Interesting ...

True. I am using obsidian with 11ty. Preview locally, push to gitlab, auto deploy to nelify. https://t.co/NmvWdEz4dR

We will always value our existing skills more than emerging skills. I see that happen with AI based coding skills. Senior devs dismiss the emerging skills saying our way of learning is better.

Most project managers are just post men.
