Latin America is now aging faster than ANY region in the world. Chile has a lower birthrate than even Japan. What is going on?

Wow, this tweet went very viral! I wanted share a possibly slightly improved version of the tweet in an "idea file". The idea of the idea file is that in this era of LLM agents, there is less of a point/need of sharing the specific code/app, you just share the idea, then the other person's agent customizes & builds it for your specific needs. So here's the idea in a gist format: gist.github.com/karpathy/442a6… You can give this to your agent and it can build you your own LLM wiki and guide you on how to use it etc. It's intentionally kept a little bit abstract/vague because there are so many directions to take this in. And ofc, people can adjust the idea or contribute their own in the Discussion which is cool.

LLM Knowledge Bases Something I'm finding very useful recently: using LLMs to build personal knowledge bases for various topics of research interest. In this way, a large fraction of my recent token throughput is going less into manipulating code, and more into manipulating

A couple reflections on the quantum computing breakthrough we just announced... Most of us grew up learning there are three main types of matter that matter: solid, liquid, and gas. Today, that changed. After a nearly 20 year pursuit, we’ve created an entirely new state of matter, unlocked by a new class of materials, topoconductors, that enable a fundamental leap in computing. It powers Majorana 1, the first quantum processing unit built on a topological core. We believe this breakthrough will allow us to create a truly meaningful quantum computer not in decades, as some have predicted, but in years. The qubits created with topoconductors are faster, more reliable, and smaller. They are 1/100th of a millimeter, meaning we now have a clear path to a million-qubit processor. Imagine a chip that can fit in the palm of your hand yet is capable of solving problems that even all the computers on Earth today combined could not! Sometimes researchers have to work on things for decades to make progress possible. It takes patience and persistence to have big impact in the world. And I am glad we get the opportunity to do just that at Microsoft. This is our focus: When productivity rises, economies grow faster, benefiting every sector and every corner of the globe. It’s not about hyping tech; it’s about building technology that truly serves the world.

• South Korea: Lowest fertility rate in the region, a national security issue. • US: Record-low fertility rate as per CDC Data. • England & Wales: Fertility rate hits new low. • Russia: Lowest birth rate in decades. • China: Population declines for 2nd consecutive year.

Okay, gotta get something off my chest. Everyone's freaking out about this chart from Carta that signals the startup apocalypse. 254 startups shut down in Q1 2024. Up 58% from last year. Sounds terrifying, right? But, no-one is talking about one key point from this data. This isn't all startups. It's VC-backed startups. Big difference. Meanwhile... My inbox is flooded with more and more emails/DMS from bootstrapped founders with little teams doing big numbers. They're crushing it. No fancy offices. No huge teams. Just profitable businesses solving real problems. Even today, I saw that ExplodingTopics was acquired by SEMrush (public company). Another bootstrapped success story. The media won't tell you this, but it's a golden age for indie startups. While Silicon Valley panics, the share of bootstrappers that are winning goes up and up. It makes sense. It's cheaper than ever to build audience, build product and Silicon Valley doesn't have a monopoly on industry secrets anymore for the vast majority of businesses that do $100M or less in revenue. The real startup story isn't in those Carta headlines. It's probably in a group chat with a few indie hackers obsessed with Peter Levels or Nikita Bier, instead of Mark Zuckerberg. One profitable customer at a time. Welcome to the era of the indie startup.

There are also NO large meetings. Anyone can walk out of a meeting if they're not contributing or don't feel they need to be there. According to Elon, small teams make quick and independent decisions. Look at the email he wrote to employees 👇

@davidcohen @brentgrinna @Mqsley Congrats, David! +1 on the alumni front; it’s Techstars’ biggest unfair advantage. I sent you a couple of emails, sorry if they came off a little strong. I want to be a part of Techstars -in anyway- moving forward. Realize you’re just getting back in the saddle.
