A platform for consulting aspirants to practice business case interviews.

Finding case prep partners is a major pain point for B-school students/consulting aspirants. Fortunately, frontier AI models are now good enough to function as surprisingly competent case interviewers.


I wrote a short article explaining the Transformer model and how it works, using the Manim library for generating animations. Please read through if the topic interests you, and leave your thoughts and feedback!


It doesn’t make sense to have your build tool call another build tool to actually perform the build. In that case, why I would not just use Gradle directly?


There can be several reasons for that. Say your project doesn't only require gradle but other tools to be run too. Or say there are some post-scripts or pre-process-scripts that need to be run. They can be done easily like:

  build pre:
     ! echo 'pre script'

  build proj:
     ! gradle hello
Plus, you might want to run some python scripts or run some other shell commands during or after you have built your gradle project.


Hi! I made a mistake in my previous reply. I forgot mentioning 'pre' as a dependency for 'proj'. I meant something like:

  build pre:
     ! echo 'pre script'

  build proj: pre
     ! gradle hello
This will ensure that 'pre' scripts are run before main 'proj' script!


True. This seems more like a general-purpose task-runner like Task [1] than a self-contained build system.

Hi! Task runner would not be an appropriate term for this. Since it also defines target based on their modification times. This is what we call a general purpose build system, just like we call Make and Ninja build system.

It can do anything you want if you can provide it with proper shell commands and define targets. This can not only be used for tasks but also for physical building targets that can be built on the machine.

I believe that the project you linked here is itself also a build system and not just a task runner. But again, it uses yaml, which might not be best while defining custom things related to a build system


Congrats on building and launching your project!

That said, let me just go ahead and share the obvious: https://xkcd.com/936/


The botanical classification doesn’t matter - coconut oil is primarily saturated fat which is what makes it better for you over the PUFA that comes from seed oils.


There should be an 'X' at the top right, is it missing for you?


Yea, the top is cut off. I'm on Google pixel 2. Here's a screenshot https://postimg.cc/p9wfQK4r


Thanks for pointing it out! Gotta fix this on Android...


Yes! I plan to add that next.


Thanks :) I'm going to update the dictionary to use the same one as Wordle's, so that should be fixed.


Ah, yes I should have done that to begin with. Thanks!
