before AI, I had 3 unfinished projects .
after AI, I have 87 unfinished projects.
As a business, you don't need to rely on AI subscriptions. Majority of businesses are specialized.
So getting an offline AI model that runs locally is a better option.
If you design logos, you only need a neural network capable of training. Then train it on designed logos.
Your favorite AI depends heavily on this.
This is a single neuron. Its job is simple. Compare inputs and weights against the bias using a rule. If this rule is true, turn the neuron on. Else, keep it false.
But 1 neuron is not enough. Hence AI relies on billions of them.
AI is powerful, but also bloated. Its general purpose nature makes it huge unnecessarily.
You could code a small neural network that is specialized. It won't need a billion parameters. It won't even need powerful computers.
Need multiple skills? Code multiple specialized models
I've never been so bored. Had no power for 2 days! 🤦🏿♂️
So, I pulled out a pen and paper. Played around with Neural Networks and Logic Gate Diagrams... I wrote all the weights and biases by hand for all the diagrams I was testing my knowledge on.
I learnt this last year though. 😐
One of the most #expensive skills is completing your projects. Not many of us can afford that skill. I'm not even sure if it is a skill, habit or trait. But whatever it is, that thing is expensive.
How do you make sure that you complete what you started?
I've made it a habit to drink 2 cups of water within the first 5 min of waking up. Then add a single fruit to my breakfast. This is still a new habit though, I hope I won't drop it along the way.
Which good habit do you think I can add into my morning routine?
Alot goes into the existence of a large #software.
These big software are running on extremely large #codebases. Reviewing them is a rare skill.
Going through some taught me that, building for scale is easier said than done. Some of these have over 20k files.
I've been writing code for years, and I only bumped into MathML a week ago. I'm a little disappointed but quite excited to try it out a bit more.
I tutor learners with Math, and I wanted to test an idea here... potential project unlocked.
What do you use for Math rendering?
I'm not a designer. However, I'm drawn towards simplistic designs and black and white themes I see around the internet. So, everytime I'm thinking of designing something, I always think, black and white, lines, white space, simple, not many buttons and the likes...
I've been working on my portfolio for sometime now.
Here is the desktop design and the current state. By the end of this week, it should be done and live. The delay is caused by running programming and non-programming projects in parallel🤦🤦
Which tool do you use to test Typography designs?
I'm testing out a few fonts I want to use in one of my projects.
Being in a tech space, programming things and designing systems can be confusing at times.
What do you call yourself? A Programmer? A developer? An Engineer? A Coder?
... does it even matter what you call yourself? What is the difference between all of these titles?
