hamza_ali_shah··on Show HN: Jigsaw Haiku
Loved it. Adding a hint what the haiku is about might help. At the end credit who wrote the haiku too?
hamza_ali_shah··on How Universities Should Prepare Founders
His point is to rethink the purpose education... Yes, there's a privellaged sense in assuming every student has equal access to time,resources, and family dynamics and economics. I feel the idea that universities and education system in general needs to move away from purely academic style of education to practical startup-forcused is needed for the new era.

woah, never knew.. so cool.
hamza_ali_shah··on The Amazon Tax
But this is how ads work? The entire concept of programtic ads is based on bidding for the highest leverage time and placement with $$.. So even you have the best product and your competitor outbids you, they get seen more and most likely get bought more?

And even if you go into a normal retail shop with a product in mind, all the available options showcased can "distort" your actual intent. Because that's what the shop is designed to do: to showcase, and even in that showcase, some products are placed/showcased so they catch your attention.

I doubt anyone chooses to create shoddy products just so they have more money to market them..

hamza_ali_shah··on Sam Altman says we are in the singularity: 'This is the moment'
no doubt about the advancements in AI, but why resort to these PR stunts and statements when OpenAI should be focused on meaningful advances in tech and ethics.. goes the same for Anthropic. I prefer Microsoft and how elegantly Satya and Tim have handled AI
