Book Review: Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist
By the time Warren Buffet was 17, he had read more than a hundred business books. By age 11, he was earning and saving. By age 14, he began paying taxes to the US Government. When he graduated high school, he had 5,000 dollars he had saved from his newspaper sales business.
Even before he had $100,000, Warren Buffet worried that becoming rich would spoil his children. Warren Buffet had always loved numbers. Before he was ten, he knew the statistics of every state in the US. Numbers were his thing. He reduced everything to number value. Years later, after computers were invented, Warren refused to use them because he did not need them; his brain could compute any number he wanted.
Influenced By His Father
The two people who had the biggest influence on Warren Buffet were Howard Buffett and Ben Graham. Howard Buffett was Warren's father. The Great Depression shaped his life. The father was a strict, disciplinarian father who had defined principles that he expected his children to follow. He was aloof about life, intellectual, and seemed to have a defining purpose for life. Warren inherited all of those. It is remarkable the influence that parents have on their children. If you are a parent, watch out for the kind of parent you are.
Influenced by Ben Graham
Ben Graham, the author of "The Intelligent Investor," is the second man who had the biggest influence on Warren Buffet's life. Warren Buffet followed Ben's principles for his investments. In the business world, Ben Graham was his oracle. Although Warren would fine-tune Ben's principles, his thinking was largely shaped by Ben Graham. Good thing it worked. The lesson here is that we don't need to reinvent the wheel; we just need to find out what's working and use it. Look for patterns. Look for solutions that have worked. Implement them.
Family
As a father, Warren Buffet was aloof. He did not have a good relationship, or rather, any relationship, with
Top 10 Lessons learned From book-"The Dip"
1. Be the Best
🥇Anyone who is going to hire you, buy from you, or do what you want them to do is going to wonder if you’re the BEST choice.
BEST: Best for them, right now, based on what they believe and what they know
THE WORLD: Their world, the world they have access to
2 . Quitting Is Not Failure
If you are not going to be the best, then you should just QUIT.
Quitting, in some scenarios, is actually essential for freeing up resources to get through the dips that matter.
This means you only have two options in life:
Quit or be Exceptional.
To become the best, you must understand these three curves:
3. The Cul De Sac:
1️⃣This first curve is where you work and work and work… but nothing changes. It doesn’t get a lot better; it doesn’t get a lot worse… it just is what it is.
Whenever you find one of these...
...you need to get off it fast.
The opportunity cost of investing your life in something that’s not going to get better is just too high.
4. The Cliff:
2⃣The cliff looks like something potentially promising at first… but then all of a sudden it drops off rapidly & you suffer.
The cliff is a situation like this where you don’t quit… until you fall off the other end and everything falls apart.
5. THE DIP:
3⃣If there wasn’t a Dip, there’d be no scarcity. If It’s Worth Doing, There’s Probably a Dip. The Dip creates scarcity, and scarcity creates value.
It’s easy to Be a CEO. what’s hard is Getting there. There’s a huge dip along the way.
6. "Cul de sacs" & "Cliffs" Lead to Failure
If you’re facing either one of these curves, you need to quit. Not soon, but RIGHT NOW.
"The biggest obstacle to success in life is our inability to quit what isn’t working soon enough."
7. Quitting As Tactic VS Quitting As Strategy
🔄Quitting is important, but we’re not talking about giving up and abandoning your long term strategy.
You do have to quit the TACTICS that aren
BOOK REVIEW
GOOD TO GREAT BY JIM COLLINS
"Good to Great" by Jim Collins is a highly insightful and compelling book that offers valuable lessons on how companies can transition from being just good to achieving greatness. Through extensive research and analysis, Collins and his team identified a set of exceptional companies that experienced remarkable success in their industries and sustained it over time.
Here are 10 key lessons from "Good to Great" that provide a deeper understanding of what enables a company to achieve long-term greatness:
1. Level 5 Leadership: The most successful companies are led by humble and determined leaders who prioritize the success of the organization above their own personal recognition.
2. First Who, Then What: Great companies prioritize getting the right people on board before deciding on a specific strategy or direction. Getting the right people on the bus and in the right seats is crucial for sustainable success.
3. Confront the Brutal Facts: Successful companies have a culture of embracing reality rather than clinging to wishful thinking. They confront harsh realities head-on and make necessary changes to adapt and grow.
4. The Hedgehog Concept: Companies that achieve greatness understand their core strengths and focus on doing what they can be the best at, while staying away from activities that are outside of their core competencies.
5. Culture of Discipline: Great companies cultivate a culture of discipline by ensuring that everyone in the organization is disciplined in adhering to the company's core values and principles.
6. Technology Accelerators: Utilizing technology as an accelerator and enabler, rather than considering it as the driving force behind success, helps companies maintain a sustainable advantage.
7. The Flywheel Effect: Great companies understand that building momentum through consistent effort and small wins leads to significant breakthroughs over time. It's crucial to keep pushing the flywheel, eve

Searching for hidden cameras indoors with your smartphone
A group of scientists developed the Lumos system to visualize the presence of surveillance devices indoors using an augmented reality interface.
It operates on the cold/hot principle: as you get closer to a hidden device, the RSSI value of that data point increases and then decreases as you move farther away from the device.
The system is 95% accurate, and the average error is 1.5 meters. So far they have only released the closed version, we are waiting for the application in the near future.

Google AI Research introduced a new Pathways Language Model (PaLM).
According to Google, the model is capable of understanding more than 540 billion parameters, including complex concepts and relationships that were previously inaccessible to computers. The model can explain jokes, reason logically, explain its actions and write code.
PaLM was trained using a combination of English and multilingual datasets that include high-quality web documents, books, wikipedia, conversations, and GitHub code.
It also created a "lossless" dictionary that preserves all spaces (especially important for code), breaks Unicode characters that are not in the dictionary into bytes, and breaks numbers into separate tokens, one for each digit.
Watch this, take his advice and change your life.
