Hi Reader, Last week, I announced that a new course is coming soon and invited you to guess the topic. Hundreds of guesses were submitted, and four people who guessed correctly got the course for free! (I've already notified the winners.) I'll tell you about the course next week. In the meantime, I've got a new Tuesday Tip for you! 👇 🔗 Link of the weekOpenAI just unleashed an alien of extraordinary ability (Understanding AI) If you're curious about what makes OpenAI's new "o1" models so special, I recommend checking out Timothy B. Lee's excellent analysis. 👉 Tip #47: Upgrade your terminal applicationI've spent a fair share of time in terminal applications over the years, and have generally found them to be pretty bad:
A few months ago, I went on a hunt for a new terminal application, and found one that I really like: Warp. Here are a few of my favorite Warp features: 1. Navigate your history with "blocks" Input and output are grouped together in blocks, making it much easier to browse through your history. 2. Filter block output If your command generates a large output that you need to search through, you can filter the output within Warp (rather than exporting it to a file and filtering it in a text editor). 3. Customize your prompt (and everything else) You can edit your prompt with a drag-and-drop interface, and also customize a ton of other interface settings. 4. Browse previous commands When searching for a previous command with the up arrow, you can see all of your recent commands at a glance. 5. Open folders If there's a path in your output, you can Cmd + Click to open the folder directly from Warp. 6. And much more...

Hi Reader, Last week, I encouraged you to experiment with different LLMs, since there’s no one model that is superior across all use cases. Specifically, I suggested you try using Chatbot Arena, which allows you to chat with multiple models at once. It’s completely free, but has two significant disadvantages: Your chats are not private and may be used for research. It lacks the feature-rich interface provided by other LLMs. Today, I want to offer you a better method for experimenting with...
Hi Reader, Over the past 50 tips, I’ve touched on many different topics: Python, Jupyter, pandas, ML, data visualization, and so on. Going forward, I’m planning to focus mostly on Artificial Intelligence. I’m announcing this so you know what to expect, and I know what to deliver! 💌 I’ll also try to make the tips shorter, so that they're easier to digest on-the-go. Finally, I plan to include an “action item” each week, so that you can practice what you’re learning. I hope you like these...
Hi Reader, Next week, I’ll be offering a Black Friday sale on ALL of my courses. I’ll send you the details this Thursday! 🚨 👉 Tip #50: What is a "method" in Python? In Python, a method is a function that can be used on an object because of the object's type. For example, if you create a Python list, the "append" method can be used on that list. All lists have an "append" method simply because they are lists: If you create a Python string, the "upper" method can be used on that string simply...
