My July 4th weekend

-
This July fourth was my best experience yet. On Friday, July 4, we went to Adobe Park, and my dad clicked pictures of the family. After that we went to see firecrackers at Cardoza Park. My brother was very excited and kept clapping and jumping up and down. Then we went back home. On Sunday, we went to the beach. We had a lot of fun there and played in the water. I even buried myself in sand. Then when we came back home, I took a shower, got ready to go to swimming class. In the previous week I had passed the level "Sting Ray" and I am currently in "Dolphin". I only have two more levels to go . YAY!!! I had learned to do breaststroke kicks. Next time, I go, I will learn dolphin kicks. After swimming class, I went to music class. After that my music teacher had to go somewhere, but she cannot see, so Mrs. Kathy dropped her off. I had a very fun July 4th weekend.

My Summer

So today is Saturday, October 7th. Yesterday was the end of Week 1 of the quarter, meaning that we have about 10 more weeks before Winter Break, which doesn't seem like a lot. Summer this year was eventful. Firstly, I joined Smash Gyms for about two months, which I attended in the evenings after coming home from my internship. I attended the Muay Thai and Strength/Conditioning classes mostly. Secondly, I interned this summer at the same place I had interned at last summer, Cadence Design Systems. I enjoyed my time there and I didn't feel very stressed. Thirdly, during the last three weeks of summer break, which were also roughly the first three weeks of September, my parents went to India, leaving me and my brother to take care of the home, which we did. Now that I am growing older, I feel that I should be more careful about the words I choose, particularly on a public-facing blog like this one. There are pros and cons to this blog being public. The self-critical voice inside m...

Thoughts on LLMs and Modeling

-
I am sharing here something I have written about LLMs and modeling. Most of it leans towards the science-fiction side, but it is at least partially based on reality and hopefully it will serve as a foundation for some future research ideas. Hope you enjoy! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1He_KZDnfAaKOfcLkrfY_XVwMsHLmdhHK/view?usp=drive_link

A Realization

-
I just realized something that is simultaneously great and terrible--that hard work is the key to satisfaction. It is great because it means that if you work hard, life will be better. But at the same time, it is terrible because it means that you have to work hard even if you don't want to. I woke up around 8:30 full of fear, worry, and frustration. After I finished a long day of work (~10 hrs work at least I think), however, I feel satiated and fine. I still have a lot of work, but I feel a little calmer. I also had a random thought a few days ago that I thought I would talk about. Religion seems like not just one thing but rather a combination of multiple things. It is the stories and literature or mythology that comprise the story it tells. E.g. The Ramayana It is a set of rules by which you must live your life and tells you your values. E.g. The Ten Commandments It is your personal relationship with God. It is a source of comfort and love to help you get through tough times an...
