A King may move a man, a father may claim a son, but remember that even when those who move you be Kings, or men of power, your soul is in your keeping alone.
When you stand before God, you cannot say, "But I was told by others to do thus." Or that, "Virtue was not convenient at the time." This will not suffice. Remember that.”
- King Baldwin IV, Jerusalem
Know your place in this world, do not push into a territory which ain't yet yours.
Failed miserably last month, but I know my place in the heirarchy. I am untouched by the false euphorbia which is a product of the thought that one is important in this world. Most of the people are nothing.
Lately, I've been researching about perspective transformations and projections, and also the mathematics behind them.
Last night I simulated a Tesseract using pygame (a python library) and also wrote a medium article on the mathematics and code behind the animation. It was an interesting project.
Check out the code on GitHub, also read my article on the maths and code behind this cool simulation.
Was reading about ecological models with mathematics in them, came across the prey-predation model.
As soon as I saw it, I knew that I had to build something based on this. Initially I had also decided to include a simulation grid (say 256x256) in which red pixels would denote predators and blue pixels would denote the prey. I couldn't get my head around how to implement it in python, so I discarded it. For now.

"Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light."
-Dylan Thomas [Do not go gentle into that good night]
Came back home today, was just going through the stuff I accumulated in the past, longed for those times.
I was researching image classification models using TensorFlow in Python, and to my surprise, I found there wasn't much detailed information available about the mathematics behind normalizing datasets. This lack of resources left me feeling a bit disturbed, so I decided to take matters into my own hands and write my own article on the topic😅

Last month I was experimenting with OpenAI's Whisper which is a speech to text API. I was thinking of making a platform where you could feed audio files say from a boring meeting your boss forced you to attend (though you werent paying any attention) and transcribe it into text. The text would be converted into lucid and concise bullet points by an LLM.
Thus the name BullscribeAI (Bull for bullet points and Scribe for trasncribe)
I built an MVP with a cool UI, but my LLM was limited to llama3.2:1b running locally on my device
I read Nietzsche's "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" and it had a deep impact on my life. Nietzsche wanted us to be an Übermensch, a person who transcends human values and strives to be better every single day. Nietzsche was deeply disturbed by the epicurean and hedonistic elements of the modern times and that probably inspired him to paint the ideal portrait of a human being, and the potential of a human being.
"Man is a rope, tied between beast and overman — a rope over an abyss." - Zarathustra [Thus Spoke Zarathustra by Nietzsche]
It inspired me to build this vague project called Forge The Übermensch
