Sir Isaac Newton's insane study routine

He worked seven days a week, 18 hours a day, and he pushed himself even further.

Newton got admitted to Trinity College, Cambridge in the year 1661. In the year 1664, he got a scholarship to study for four more years to finish his MA but in the same year, England was hit by Bubonic plague due to which the University was closed for two consecutive years. Due to this reason, Newton had to go back to his home in Woolsthorpe. These two years turned out to be the most productive and mind-wrenchingly stressful years for Newton. During these two years, he spent most of his days, most of his hours, studying in a room with nothing but lighting candles, loads of books, and notes around. It is reportedly said that he used to get so engrossed in his works that he would forget and skip his meals. During this period, Newton used to spend 16-18 hours a day working and studying in his room totally undistracted. He came up with the theory of gravitation, his significant works in optics, and he also invented calculus during these Bubonic plague times at his home. According to biographer Gale Christianson, Newton's working habits were pathologically addictive and for him, there was no end to the day. He would just keep going on and on and on until he felt exhausted to death. In the 1680s, when Newton was rigorously working to publish his lifelong works in his book Principia Mathematica, as mentioned by one of Newton's employees, he would often go to sleep at 2 or 3 in the morning. He barely attended any social events or participated in any recreational activities.

Get down and get your shit done. Work hard enough to get addicted to what u are doing.

things i missed, @bekacru_c made this auth library. really impressive stuff from Beka. i once abandoned a project because of NextAuth. this might be the time i am gonna have less stress with handling auth. also, @gebeta_tech made this site for searching and downloading books. the community is cooking lately 🔥

anyone going for it ? idts i make the time for it but would be cool if so

so God said let there be rage in the family, and i was born today apparently

last April, I wanted to get a passport since I was accepted in one of UK universities. the local Kebele refused to give me my birth certificate as if I was a foreigner. I constantly showed up at their office for 2 months but they were like, nah man. they made me lose the opportunity. long story short, get ur documents right away before applying to any kind of things :)

just heard the term "AI Sovereignty". I was wondering what it means, and here are my findings

AI sovereignty is a complex and evolving concept, but it's basically about a nation's right to control how artificial intelligence (AI) is developed, used, and regulated within its own borders. It's about making sure AI serves the country's interests and values while protecting its citizens from any potential risks.

Here's what it means in more detail:

1. Control over AI Development:

National AI Strategies: Countries are creating plans to guide AI research, development, and adoption. They often prioritize specific areas like healthcare, manufacturing, or security.
Regulation and Governance: Nations are developing rules for AI development, addressing concerns like data privacy, bias, and ethical use.
Investment in AI Research: Governments are putting money towards AI research and development, aiming to build up expertise and leadership in this field within their country.

2. Protection of National Interests:

Strategic Advantages: AI is seen as a key tool for national security and economic success. Countries want to use AI for military advancements, intelligence gathering, and economic growth.
Data Sovereignty: Protecting national data from being accessed or controlled by foreign entities is important. This includes ensuring that data used to train AI models stays within the country's borders.
Control over AI Systems: Nations want to keep control over critical AI systems, especially in areas like infrastructure, transportation, and cybersecurity, to prevent foreign interference or influence.

3. Ethical and Societal Concerns:

Bias and Discrimination: AI systems can sometimes reflect existing societal biases, raising concerns about fairness and equity. Nations want to address these issues by developing and deploying AI responsibly.
Job Displacement: AI automation might lead to job losses, creating social and economic challenges. Governments are looking for ways to mitigate these impacts and help people transition to an AI-driven future.
Privacy and Security: AI can collect and analyze a lot of personal data, raising concerns about privacy violations and security breaches. Strong legal frameworks and safeguards are needed to protect individual rights.

Challenges and Considerations:

Global Cooperation: AI is a global field. It's important to achieve AI sovereignty while also working together with other countries.
Technological Advancements: AI technologies are changing rapidly, making it a constant challenge to maintain control and stay ahead.
Balance of Interests: Balancing national interests with individual rights, economic growth, and global collaboration is a complex task.

In simpler terms, AI sovereignty is about making sure AI technology serves a nation's interests and values while protecting its citizens. This includes controlling AI development, safeguarding national security and data, and addressing ethical concerns.

The concept of AI sovereignty is still being debated and refined. As AI becomes even more powerful, the need for thoughtful and strategic governance will become even more critical.

Five years ago, he correctly predicted that AI could generate music. now he's giving bold predictions about the future of technology

y'all remember this ?

In 2018, Japan's cybersecurity minister, Yoshitaka Sakurada, made headlines when he admitted that he had never used a computer. He made this statement during a parliamentary session, which surprised many, considering his position overseeing cybersecurity preparations for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Sakurada stated that he delegated computer-related tasks to his staff and had no-experience with computer himself.

I use an android because Adam and Eve had an Apple and that didn't work.

The combined economic output of all countries in the world is around $94 trillion. So, 35.68 trillion dollars is almost 40% of the entire global economy! The GDP of the United States is about $26 trillion. 35.68 trillion dollars is about 1.4 times larger than the entire US economy. If you were to distribute 35.68 trillion dollars equally to every person on Earth (about 8 billion people), each person would receive about $4,460
