Where is the heart of the technology industry?

The simple answer is “Silicon Valley,” a term that now generally means the San Francisco-San Jose-Oakland area of California.

The Exchange explores startups, markets and money.

To answer that question, we have to understand how Silicon Valley compares to the larger United States venture capital and startup market; if Silicon Valley is truly losing its dominance domestically, it certainly cannot claim an international title.

The chess world is currently consumed by a drama as lurid and compelling, in its way, as the Don’t Worry Darling fracas.

The event and its fallout (only given in outline here) have sharply divided the chess world, as even the conservative approach of “let’s wait and see” tacitly sustains the idea of Niemann cheating, so there is precious little neutral ground to occupy.

FIDE, the official international chess organization, is expected to issue a statement soon that may shed light on things, but it won’t change what’s already happened.

Gölgede ve güneşte satranç :P Oynayanlar Magnus Carlsen ve son dönemin yükselen genç yıldızlarından Hans Niemann yer de Miami.

The chess community at large, a diverse group of players and commentators of all ages and skill levels, could not help but think about how, if one were insane enough to try to cheat in an over the board game with Magnus holding the white pieces, how would you do it?

This is not that strange in and of itself.

I recently told applicants to Y Combinator that the best advice I could give for getting in, per word, was Explain what you've learned from users.

That tests a lot of things: whether you're paying attention to users, how well you understand them, and even how much they need what you're making.

I only had a few data points: our own startup, and those started by friends.

Which is why YC partners should usually have been founders themselves.

Focus is doubly important for early stage startups, because not only do they have a hundred different problems, they don't have anyone to work on them except the founders.

Whether or not YC manages one day to be listed alongside those famous clusters, it won't be for lack of trying.

The people of Louisiana’s East Carroll parish had been fighting for decent broadband for more than two years by the time their governor, John Bel Edwards, arrived in town in July to announce his plan to make their wishes come true.

But shortly after Edwards announced the grant to Conexon, Sparklight (formerly Cable One) mounted a protest to the state broadband authority.

A spokesperson for the Louisiana Division of Administration, which oversees the GUMBO grant program dedicated to helping underserved areas get broadband service, said the division will review Sparklight’s protest and Conexon’s response before making a decision.

Now, thanks to a massive amount of broadband funding set to flow into states under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, these fights could become even more frequent — and even more fierce. “

Waiting game But these eleventh-hour objections aren’t permitted in every state, and experts say states and the federal government could learn a lot from places that have instituted guardrails to discourage last-minute or frivolous protests.

The way it’s structured, we had to wait,” Chambers said. “

China's GPU market is heating up with several domestic chipmakers either developing or offering their products in offices, and industrial applications & for mainstream client computing needs.

While there is some hope for Chinese GPUs in the general-purpose computing and HPC segment with the unveiling of the Birentech BR100 GPU, the client side sits years behind in performance with the best graphics cards only offering GTX 1050 or 1050 Ti level of horsepower.

They also have a second flagship GPU in R&D that will be mass-produced around 2024.

However, both of these GPUs are once again dedicated to AI.

That's where Muxi's next-generation gaming GPU comes in.

The GPU is going to feature all the essential graphics rendering techniques and will support modern APIs.

Whenever I am on one of those shitty butt websites where 90% of the article is filler, the site is bloated and there's a newsletter signup, I sign myself up to names like IWillAssasinateBiden at gov.us or hailHitler at adl.org.

is there some way the e-mails could be seen even tough the username likely doesn't exist on the victim server? could the site otherwise get in trouble with the victim site or their host or am I just wasting my time?

If you don't understand how this is going to catapult Apes to $1m then you are old and un cool. if you lost money on NFTs it is because you sold too early. Or bought a scam like moonbirds.

If I only had more hours in the day I would… How would you finish that sentence? I would very likely answer that question by responding: read, write, and code.

In 2017 I listened to the book Deep Work by Cal Newport for the first time (thanks Audible). I remember feeling particularly challenged to set aside time to do things on my bucket list. Things like: read good books, write a book, and make my own iPhone app.

So the question quickly became: How can I get more focused time without sacrificing time with the family? After considering the alternatives, which were to stay up later at night, or to work during lunch, I realized that the only reasonable answer was to wake up earlier—before everyone else in my house. If I did this I could “guarantee” I would have the energy and quiet I needed to get some work in. And if I could get to the place where I woke up around 5:30-5:45am I’d gain effectively 5 hours of focused time per week before the kids woke up. That’s a lot.

Why not just wake up earlier? Well the problem is that I’ve historically been a night owl. Spending many hours deep into the night playing video games (when I was younger of course), studying or writing a paper, finishing a project, watching a good movie, playing music, etc. Though this can be a time for inspiration to strike, with young children in the house I don’t really have the same stamina to push into the later hours. So how does someone who has been a night owl for their entire life change their habits and move into the early riser category?

A number of years ago I stumbled upon an alarm app called Step Out (I’ve since switched to Alarmy Pro because I was having an issue with Step Out, but they are both very similar). What’s special about these apps is that they let you setup small required tasks (or “missions”) that must be completed before you can turn off the alarm. Because these tasks are required you can’t simply snooze a hundred times. This is because the app requires more mental effort and/or physical exertion than a traditional alarm clock does. This gives you a higher chance of not going back to sleep after completing the required tasks. Some example tasks include solving a math problem, walking a number of steps, or shaking the phone violently. I tried all of these and they did not work for me. I have to admit I was discouraged at this point.

The feature that really sealed the deal for me and took me out of my app-buying-regret-despair-cycle was the “take a picture” mission. When you setup the alarm for the first time, you take a photo of a place in your house within the app. Then when the alarm goes off in the morning, you have to walk over to that same place and take essentially the same photo to turn it off (don’t worry they allow room for error!).

So every morning when I wake up early I take a picture of my fridge. This is strategic because it’s in the kitchen. This puts me close to the espresso machine which then greatly increases my chances of staying awake and getting to work. And this was the piece of the puzzle I was missing.

Finding an app that had the potential to help was one thing, but I still needed to actually start waking up earlier.

I began to use the app and paired it with making incremental adjustments to my sleeping habits. For one thing, I didn’t start waking up at 5:30am. I think I first set my alarm to 6:45am. I would try to go to bed a little earlier the next few nights, and then move my wakeup time to 6:30am. After a few weeks of inching both my bedtime and my wakeup time earlier, wham! I hit 5:30am. Eureka!

I can’t say it was easy inching along, systematically trying to program my mind and trick my body to wake up early. It wasn’t. But I can say the feeling of waking up earlier and reaping the benefits was amazing. I was finally doing it.

And now it’s largely a matter of discipline. When I’m getting ready for bed I will decide if I want to turn on my alarm for the morning. I also have to make the conscious effort to go to bed early enough the night before or I’ll just fall asleep on the couch. I’ve found that I need about 7 hours of sleep. And I’m pretty good at convincing myself that I need more sleep when it’s dark outside.

And that’s how I tricked myself into regularly waking up before 6am. There are of course exceptions to waking up early, sick kiddos is a good one, but I still use this method to wake up early and I’d recommend trying it if you’ve struggled with the ever tempting snooze button.

Do you already wake up early? What motivates you to resist every inch of your body screaming “stay in bed”?! Do you wish you could wake up earlier? Have you also found a way to change from a night owl to a morning person out of necessity like me?

*Side note: when you’re traveling or on vacation you’ll want to turn off the required picture setting (if you use it) since that area of your house won’t be available to take a picture of while you’re away! I learned this the hard way. 🤦🏻‍♂️
