Feynman's blackboard at time of his death: What I cannot create I do not understand.
From 10 -> 14 years old I played video games instead of olympiads.
My League was okay, peaking diamond 5. I was better at shooters,
peaking #5-7 on CoD's global leaderboards in SnD for 4 months, and
and Global Elite in CS:GO. I started training to go professional
with MLG and ESEA, but then got interested in programming...
From 14 -> 24 years old I focused on software programming. During
high school I started interning and winning multiple hackathons.
During college I studied mathematics and had various internships.
One of them was a product based internship with Mr. Musk which I
cancelled in order to learn more about information theory and
cryptography at Hacker School, where I wrote a BitTorrent client
and crypto stack. After college I worked on critical infrastructure
for the largest crypto company: brownfielding a cloud compiler and
greenfielding a distributed provisioning system for 10k engineers,
which saved $XMM/year.
From 24 -> ??, I am narrowing my focus on "AGI" with ai infrastructure,
and happy to offer my services until capabilities like swe-bench/ARC
are reached. By day, I'm building two compilers: the first one is
din: C89 -> RV32I. It will compile 2kloc/10kloc operating systems and
beat `gcc -O1` on dhrystone and embench. The second one is
nayru: ONNX -> CUDA/TT. By night, I'm going through some of the algebra
and analysis I missed during COVID in order to be an informed relative
of the theories being developed around universal intelligence, the
manifold hypothesis, and tensor programs.
1. I want to work on cool tech.
2. I assume the local mininum.
3. I want to have fun.
The future is bright,
