Using AI to build a learning path can be so much more valuable than consuming premade courses, books, YT videos. Custom learning path is unique to you and tailored to your needs and so you won't be wasting time relearning and redoing things you already know how to do. You'll have better chances for this to turn into something really great and unique. Books and courses are consumed by many and so the knowledge and skills they transfer are common. You'll have no edge. Your bespoke learning path is something most likely only you'll experience. Imagine what it can unlock.

I'm not saying that it won't contain books to read / videos to watch but they'll be part of something greater.

Before Fable got banned I used it to build me a path to get properly good at drones (both flying and engineering). It created two lanes with many practical lessons to which I need to provide evidence. Decided that it might help other people so I'll be sharing what I discovered. Many things are completely new for me.

Yesterday was my first time using logic analyser and seeing I2C communication between ESP32 and MPU6050. I use mpu because the drone kit I broke uses it so I want to understand it better. But I did my research and I know it's obsolete. Anyway I learned so much more by doing a practical project where I have to communicate with the board than by just reading about I2C.

I decided I want to become an fpv drone expert. Not just flying them but building them from scratch and that means understanding everything happening on the flight controller board. Here's an ESP32 talking to an mpu6050 (gyro) over I²C, captured on a @saleae logic analyser.

Learning about flight controllers. Took some photos with my microscope and annotated the regions of ELRSF4 2G4 V3.3 taken from Mobula6.

I did some more tests with Kimi K2.6 locally on two Mac Studios via @exolabs measuring both parallel execution and optimal context size. Parallel requests scaled up to 8 concurrent calls reaching ~62 tok/s aggregate. For context length, ~85k prompt tokens was still fast, ~87k slowed down sharply, and 128k technically ran but took ~7.5 minutes.

Managed to run Kimi-K2.6 on two mac studios via @exolabs. Got 21 tokens/s. Crazy to think it outperforms gpt-5.4 and opus-4.6 on some benchmarks and you can run it locally.

I think the key to success is to blend the ancient and the bleeding edge of technology. The classical education (latin, greek, aristotle) with AI papers / hardware and robotics.

heres my small ai lab I have atm. On one mac studio I do the dev work remotely from my phone or macbook pro. The other one is for extra compute (kimi, minimax). DGX spark for experiments. All connected with 10 gigabit ethernet.

A night without AI agents working on the next feature for my product is a night wasted. For this reason I always go to sleep late because I feel I must finish working on the spec to feed it to the agent for the night

Childhood has been so stripped down and made stupid by modern children’s programming with its insipid stories and idiotic music. Just 50 years ago, music, stories and artwork was not made worse because it was for children. Children are not retarded. They can handle complexity. And complexity does not always mean vulgarity.

A screenshot of an essay titled "The Real Great Reset" discussing the shift in education from Aristotle's ideals of wisdom and perfection to Francis Bacon's focus on utility and efficiency. The text contrasts the traditional liberal arts education (trivium and quadrivium) with contemporary education that prioritizes output over meaning. It argues that the modern approach leads to a society capable of creating intelligent machines but failing to nurture human wisdom and discernment. The essay calls for a return to foundational educational principles to cultivate a deeper understanding and purpose, warning that without this restoration, society remains brilliant yet lost.

Screenshot essay titled 'The Cult of Productivity' discusses the obsession with productivity in modern society. It states that we measure everything, including time and sleep, and views efficiency as a form of morality. The section 'The Death of Leisure' reflects on how leisure has evolved from a freedom of thought to an activity that serves production. 'From Culture to Machinery' critiques the transition from a cultural focus on art and refinement to a relentless pursuit of production. The essay concludes with 'Recovering the Human Nature,' arguing that life is not a spreadsheet, and emphasizes the need for excellence and meaning in our activities rather than mere efficiency.
