Hi Cameron, congratulations on these numbers, the academic depth and clarity with which they are written is impressive! I also write a paper-based newsletter, so that's even more inspirational!

I was curious: do you usually choose a topic first and then do research on the topic or is it usually a paper that inspires you and then you go accordingly?

Both are possible. Oftentimes I have a paper I’m interested in, then I find related papers. However, sometimes I start with a topic and look for all the papers in this space (eg I did this for the MoE write up).

I primarily rely upon twitter to find papers! I also check blogs of various companies (Databricks, Meta, Anthropic, Google etc.), as well as occasionally skim papers published via arxiv.
