Location: Boston Remote: Yes Willing to relocate: Yes Technologies: Python, Pandas/Numpy, Jupyter, JS/TS and something many devs skip: actually talking to users. Résumé/CV: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paddymullen/ Email: paddy@paddymullen.com I'm a developer who believes code isn't valuable unless it's used. That's why I start with conversations, not commits. I work to understand real problems before reaching for shiny new packages. I build tools that are simple, effective, and easy to adopt. My goal is always to solve the problem and make sure people know there’s a solution. In my next role, I'm looking to work with a team that values clarity and impact. I'm especially interested in data heavy environments where thoughtful tooling can make workflows better. Most recently, I built [Buckaroo](https://github.com/paddymul/buckaroo) an open source data table for Jupyter using Pandas/Polars. It combines fast rendering, summary stats, and a low-code UI. It scratches an itch I've had for over a decade and has already streamlined my own analysis workflow.

Could this work with https://github.com/webassembly/wasi-libc ?

It seems like OP put together their own musl-based libc which is awesome, but being able to compile against WASI would open up a lot of possibilities.

This also reminds me of the recent thread on user-mode linux -- how easy it would be to compile to WASM was definitely on my mind.

To be clear: libuv has had the ability to offload (some?) I/O operators to io_uring since v1.45.0, from 2023, and that's the 8x speed improvement. 2024 is when node.js seemed to enable (or rather, stop disabling) io_uring by default in its own usage of libuv.

I have considered the problem of how the strong social benefits and cohesion of religion might be reproduced in some way not tied to the very strange attractor of identity based beliefs and shibboleths.

Science, democracy, religion. Three curses. Each embodying ideals. Each the best choice we have for the areas where they do or have functioned well. Each presenting challenges, and dysfunctional local maxima, as maintenance/optimization problems.

Of the three, science's self-correcting basis does make it the least problematic.

In the highest contrast, mathematics foundations are only weak if you look! Whereas the piles built on debatably wobbly foundations hold up extremely well.

Right what reality is this where the insurers are innocent? Did Luigi Mangione allegedly shoot an insurance CEO in the back for life-taking business practices or not?

If insurers aren’t the rich misers and are getting screwed too, then why do they lobby Congress to destroy the ACA and destroy any chance at a real healthcare system? If it’s so terrible for them why wouldn’t they help build a better system and fix the issues with them getting screwed?

@modeless is essentially arguing for self-insurance, which is perfectly sensible. You don't need insurance for things you can plan for, or have savings for (make sure you're analyzing your total financial tail risk).

Dental "insurance" is basically a savings plan with a negative return, considering the low lifetime maximums, and the fact that biannual cleanings aren't that expensive out of pocket. I have a $20k deductible (with lower premiums), and I'm coming out ahead. There's societal side benefit that paying with your own money makes you a more discriminating consumer.

The $50K is not outrageous, assuming you have the savings to cover it. You need insurance for the big things, which is basically anything more than a two-day stay in a hospital. The costs blow up from there.

So what? You have simply stated that jerks exist.

True, but what you have ignored is that jerks exist equally on all sides of any CoC.

It's just as often as not that the producers and promulgators of some CoC are the jerks. In other words CoC's don't fix anything by merely existing. A few lines in a charter or mission statement already does the same to have something to point to just for formality and documentation sake.

--

[edit to expand or re-state a little...]

It's not that there is no problem and everything is fine already. It's that CoC's are almost always a thoughtless and ineffective, even actively counter-productive response to the problem.

A coc is an attempt to make an easy solution for something that there probably IS no easy solution for.

The problem takes the form of a continual fresh stream source of problem. IE a forever stream of new jerks, and existing jerks who dodn't just do one thing today but continue to exist tomorrow and the next day.

And so the solution can only be a matching continual case-by-case counter-effort, from intelligent insightful people who have good judgement.

Yeah, that doesn't scale and isn't easy and only some people do even a half-way good job of it.

It's just not a problam that you can bash script away.

But trying to do so is an example of being just a different color of jerk making life worse for others, but just in a different way and employing different mechanisms.

Social media can mean so many things these days, I can't tell anymore.

Each of these things need to be studied separately, IMO. As different social media sites have/less of each of these:

* Algorithmic feed - encouraging rabbit holes, reinforcing clicbait and ragebait

* Comment sections - encouraging pile-ons, and vitriolic debate

* Short form content - TikTok videos, etc, quick, snackable content and destroying people's attention span . Then there's the overall ad-based incentive to put all these together to keep you engaged. TBH the fact hacker news has a different model, makes me feel better about it, rather than caring if its social media or not.

People regularly ask ChatGPT for product recommendations of all kinds, explicit and implicit.

ChatGPT will also probably be selling ad infrastructure to inject ads just like Google injects ads into search. They probably will pay out little to websites that include the “ChatGPT” widget to integrate ChatGPT with their site that also has ads.

Right now the barriers are technical for injecting ads into AI responses.

> We have good reasons for not jumping on the bandwagon of companies like Anthropic (generating 80%), Microsoft (30%) or Google (25%) just yet.

How do they measure that? I'd like to know how much I've been using coding agents to code versus by me but haven't found any reliable way to track which part of the code was from AI agents and which was from me.

My Syncthing experience matches Oxodao's. Over years with >10k files / 100 gb, I've only ever had conflicts when I actually made conflicting simultaneous changes.

I use it on my phone (configured to only sync on WiFi), laptop (connected 99% of the time), and server (up 100% of the time).

The always-up server/laptop as a "master node" are probably key.

The industry-wide concerns is that the default environment is:

1. Almost no company (with very few exceptions, like Google) can secure their systems.

2. A tech industry culture of treating customer data as something to be captured, often secretly, and leveraged, as well as a culture of being "naughty" about bending rules and regulations in general.

If you want to do much better than this, that's awesome.

You're probably aware that the following common measures aren't adequate:

* Corporate compliance checklists, which are done because they're required, or for show, while denying responsibility, and knowing that they are ineffective.

* Making security a marketing brochure checklist item or selling point, but having no idea how to do it better than the abysmal industry practice.

* Projecting confidence.

* Trying to make the customer comfortable, rather than actually securing the data.

I can see how you are using the multiple versioning schemes to achieve certain goals, but that does not make your approach "one true way".

"Semantic" really means "has some background meaning", and SemVer meaning behind all the numbers is in no way limited to API versioning: I am confused if you are making a proposal to consider it only that, arguing that different schemes should be used for different types of software, or stating that this is the only thing SemVer can be used for?

On any of those points, I disagree and you haven't made a convincing argument why that would make sense.

Note that I am not saying that SemVer is the only true way to do versioning (very much not so) for all software, just that it depends on your release strategy what is most applicable, and not on the type of software you are shipping.

Not every country has economically extractable heavy rare earths, resource =/= reserve. X discovers rare earth is the same as X discovers plants, and then assume every country can build a robust biofuel economy. Reminder PRC has the MOST shale deposits in the world, they're just buried very deep and economically AND technically not productive to extract at scale.

PRC's main choke hold is HeavyREE, more specifically processing of ionic clays that is GEOGRAPHICALLY SCARCE like economically extractable oil deposits, which enables economic leeching of heavy strategic rare earth AT SCALE. Think hunting whales for blubber vs drilling oil, supports entirely different tiers of proliferation and use. At scale is key, west never used HREEs at scale until PRC commoditized them by exploiting specific geology mostly limited to south PRC, Myanmar, parts of Brazil but deposits now also found in Australia because Australia has everything. So the real question is can long will it take AU+co to discover and build the entire HREE infra based on deposit types only PRC has real experience with.

I've heard that enough times to know it's a meme b/c no one who says that has an answer why classical computers can not do what a single cell can do. This is before we even get to the unphysical abstractions of infinite tapes & infinite energies inherent in the notion of a Turing machine.

Basically, your position is not serious b/c you haven't actually thought about what you're saying.

> Aren't the people who survived Spanish colonization better off than they would have been?

"The ends justify the means" is certainly a valid metric by which to judge things, but an honest application of it leads one to conclusions such as "Mao Zedong was the greatest humanitarian to have ever lived" (as seen here: https://i.imgur.com/3QUXVi3.jpeg).

You're literally making the argument for why the problematic scenario the person you are responding to will occur. It costs nothing to waste the candidates time with this tool, so people will "turn down the dial" and do that.

They'll keep running screenings after they've got someone they're almost sure they are going to hire, because if the deal falls through its better to have candidates in the pipeline.

They'll run screenings before they bother to evaluate if they're even interested in a candidates skill set, because you've made it cheaper to filter out candidates for lack of technical skills than lack of job fit. (And no forcing them to meet the candidate once before running this tool will not change the fact that they will do this)

And so on and so forth. Which is ironically why using this tool would filter the best candidates from the hiring pipeline while simultaneously making life worse for everyone who isn't one of the best candidates and who does have to put up with many companies wasting their time to get a single job offer.

Well, I think because we know how the code is written, in the sense that humans quite literally wrote the code for it - it's definitely not thinking, and it is literally doing what we asked, based on the data we gave it. It is specifically executing code we thought of. The output of course, we had no flying idea it would work this well.

But it is not sentient. It has no idea of a self or anything like that. If it makes people believe that it does, it is because we have written so much lore about it in the training data.

I think you're correct. The first time I encountered (and recognized) an em-dash in someone's writing was in middle school, and the person that wrote it was someone that I considered to be academically superior to myself. I noticed though, that a lot of people in the same "smart kids" group would use them; almost as if they had worked together on their papers. Maybe they were just reading different material, but it definitely came across as: this will make my writing "look smart".

For YEARS I have been "screaming at the sky" (pun somewhat intended) about, what later became know as, cloud services. Family, friends, and coworkers would laugh at my resistance to use Google, Apple, Microsoft, etc. storage. Would tell me that I do not need a µSD card slot for my phone because these wonderful "free" services existed. Would mock me for continuing to purchase DVDs and CDs. I remember when Apple told me my @mac.com email address would be free forever. I feel that, as of late, I am being vindicated somewhat. With stories like this increasing. Stories of services eliminating the movies, games, music, books, storage they promised you would be around "forever", celebrities nude photos being hacked and put out there for everybody to see. Neither the cloud, and DEFINITELY not big business, is your friend at all. To them, you are just dollar signs until you aren't.
