This section is a working garden — a low-friction place to dump study notes, paper digests, book reactions, tutorial walkthroughs, sketches, and rough drafts. Things here are intentionally unfinished. Some entries are a few bullets; some are full write-ups. They get tidied (or deleted) over time.
Categories
Filter at the top of /notes/. Current ones — they grow organically:
- course — lecture notes for a class I’m taking (CS231n, etc.)
- paper — notes on a research paper I’m studying
- book — reading notes / margin commentary
- tutorial — implementation walkthroughs (nanoGPT, etc.)
- lab — bench / experiment notes, debugging logs
- art — sketches, photos, visual experiments
- misc — everything else
What works inside a note
Same markdown features as the blog: LaTeX, figures, video, GIFs, code
blocks. Plus embedded Jupyter notebooks (the .ipynb is rendered
inline at build time):
{% jupyter_notebook "/assets/notebooks/yourfile.ipynb" %}
Quick scaffold
./new-note.sh "Reading Sutton & Barto Ch.4" book sutton rl
That makes _notes/reading-sutton-barto-ch-4.md with starter front
matter. Edit category, tags, summary, source, status as needed.
