13 years ago today, Ye's now-iconic Zane Lowe BBC Radio 1 interview was released 🎙️ "If you're a Kanye West fan, you're not a fan of me. You're a fan of yourself." Fresh off ‘Yeezus,’ Ye spent an hour talking about music, fashion, design, his bigger ambitions and where he saw himself going next, while famously declaring himself “the number one rockstar on the planet.” Ye also predicted that people would look back at the interview years later and say, “He called that.” Moments from the interview later became memes, including Ye’s reaction to Lady Gaga being named Polaroid’s creative director 😭

13 years ago today, Drake pushed back on the hype around Kendrick Lamar’s “Control” verse during his live CRWN interview at NYU 👀 When Elliott Wilson brought it up, Drake asked: “How does that verse start?” "That verse was a moment to talk about. Are you listening to it now, at this point in time? Okay. But it was cool for a couple weeks."

13 years ago, my team at NVIDIA was helping Audi develop vision systems for self parking at that time. The video itself still looked impressive, even today, especially considering the compute was tiny at that time. Lots of CUDA graph optimization went into it to make it run — like separable convolutions that serve as bedrocks of inference engine today. It sounds trivial today but backend we had to rearchitect how GPU reads camera frames isochronously without causing back pressure and jitters. Yet, after the demo we stopped working on it. It didn’t go anything except making video and playing it at all-hands. Back then, I had a code repo for “cool-demo-but-never-shipped”. It’s a graveyard. That prompted me to decide joining Google to at least ship a thing or two since I felt bored at writing papers. Shipping is hard, but at least my family can use it.

13/ in-town pool report: More on the Q&A Earlier this afternoon, POTUS touched on a wide range of topics during his Q&A. See below for more noteworthy quotes: On President Trump's son Donald Trump Jr. accepting gifts of payment for his wedding activities from a Russian oligarch. Trump said it is "totally allowed" and that his son paid back the gift "a while ago." On the press ban, when asked what "others to come" means, President Trump mentioned the New York Times and the Washington Post, but stopped short of saying he is banning them from the White House: "We are probably not going to display the paper anymore in the White House, but we haven't taken the step of throwing them out.
