> Chaos by James Gleick

I read this quite a while ago, and can't remember it at all. What did you think of it?

> The Day of the Jackal by Frederick Forsyth

Loved this when I was a kid.


The Gleick book is a good quick introduction to complexity.

Introduction to the Theory of Complex Systems is an incredible second book on the subject but it wouldn't be fair to compare it to the Gleick book.

I enjoyed How The World Really Works also.


It’s a great introduction to chaos theory and emergent phenomena. Makes you look at the world in a different way!

Anything from Frederick Forsyth is good.

Work: 1. Learning about manufacturing processes for high-throughput electroplating. 2. Learn pymatgen and other tools for building a self-driving lab for materials discovery and testing.

Non-work: 1. Improving my writing skills and start my blog with a few technical and non-technical posts.


I have been using realdebrid with POV on kodi and it works like a charm. Saving a bunch by not needing to subscribe to what seems like a million OTT’s


Agent Skills let you extend Codex with task-specific capabilities. A skill packages instructions, resources, and optional scripts so Codex can perform a specific workflow reliably. You can share skills across teams or the community, and they build on the open Agent Skills standard.

Skills are available in both the Codex CLI and IDE extensions.


Thanks to Anthropic.


Any information when it will launch in India?
