  • Translating into Learnings

    When I find an interesting piece of writing or a powerful passage, my first inclination tends to be to translate. Perhaps it’s the part-language degree (an Ghaeilge abu!) or my fascination with Japanese, but when I see a perfect distillation of knowledge, I just can’t help myself but think: what would that look like in…?…

  • An Gá a Bheith ag Léamh

Samhain 2022 Sna leabhair ficsean eolaíochta a léinn nuair a bhí mé óg, ba mhinic a bhíodh módh ní b’éifeachtaí eolas a fháil i ndiaidh teacht in ionad na léitheoireachta.

  • Na rudaí atá fonn ort (fonn a bheith ort)* a dhéanamh

    Samhain 2022The original essay by Paul Graham can be found at What You (Want To)* Want. Ó bhí mé 9 mbliana d’aois, ní raibh mé in ann an neamhréiteach seo a fhuascailt: táimid faoi dhlíthe na fisice – ag iompair mar a bheifeá ag súil leis – ach, ag an lámh eile, braitheann sé gur…

  • Cúis na Méine

    Nuair a smaoiníonn tú ar cad a dhéanfá dá gcaillfí duine agus dá dtabharfá faoi deara go n-athrófá rud nó cuid de do shaol ó bhonn, tá tú ag déanamh rud mícheart; ní chaitheann tú do shaol is fearr mar a deirtear sa lá atá inniu. Tá rud as alt agus caithfidh tú machnamh a…

  • Elements of AI Course

    This course can be found at Elements of AI. In the last couple of days, after finishing the exams, I decided it was time to do and learn about the things I really like. First on the agenda was breaking back into the field of artificial intelligence; after perusing a few courses (I had already…

  • An Coróinvíreas Agus An Chreidiúnacht

    Is aistriúchán é seo agus tá an bunleagan Béarla ar fáil ar Coronavirus and Credibility. Aibreán 2020 Le déanaí, d’fhéach mé ar fhíseán de hiriseorí teilifíse agus de pholaiteoirí agus iad ag rá nach mbeadh an coróinvíreas níos measa ná an fliú. Ba iad cé chomh dásachtach a bhí siad agus cé chomh mícheart is…

  • Uisce

    Is faoi bhuntáistí uisce a scríobhann formhór na ndaoine: deir siad gur bunriachtanas é an t-uisce agus go mbaineann iliomad feidhmeanna leis agus… Ach, ní chuirtear aon rud úrnua in iúl dúinn sa tslí seo. Ba mhaith liom ceist eile a scrúdú: an féidir linn aon rud a fhoghlaim ón uisce? Bí mar uisce. Sin…

  • Ag Scríobh Go Gonta

    Tá an bunleagan Béarla ar fáil ar Writing, Briefly. Márta 2005 (Agus mé ag freagairt ríomhphoist, scríobh mé aiste bheag faoin scríobhneoireacht de thimpiste. De ghnáth, caithim cúpla seachtain ag scríobh aiste amháin. Níor thóg an ceann seo ach 67 nóiméad ina iomláine – 23 nóiméad le scríobh agus 44 nóiméad le hathscríobh.) Ceapaim go…
