SEEKING WORK | Remote Only (located in Atlantic Timezone, ET+1)

Full stack Rails developer with tons of product management
experience.

My sweet spot is helping founders with deep domain experience who are funded and need to build a v1. B2B SaaS is my specialty.

I've worked with the CEOs of Predictable Revenue and Headphones.com, and brands like ESPN. A recent success includes working with a client CEO to take his idea from napkin to $130M in revenue.

Been building and shipping software professionally for 18 years, on Rails for 11, and consulting remotely for 10+. My clients like my approach because it's pragmatic, thoughtful, and focused on business growth: I've run three B2B SaaS businesses (and sold two of them). I see technology as a leveraged tool for growing a business, not an end in itself.

Looking for projects that are ready to start soon. Ideal project is B2B SaaS with a budget of US$20k+.

-------------------------------

- Product Management (customer interviews, product strategy, prioritization, speccing, working with dev to ship, reporting on success)

- Ruby on Rails

- Javascript, jQuery

- HTML/CSS, SASS

- MySQL, Postgres

- Web APIs (in particular I've worked with GitHub, Stripe, Slack, and Intercom in depth)

Ah, thanks for mentioning it's a funny video. With just the link posted, it just looks like a typical "say it our way so we don't lose the trademark" thing like [1]. It makes a big difference in the decision to click on it.

> If the LEGO trademark is used at all, it should always be used as an adjective, not as a noun. For example, say “MODELS BUILT OF LEGO BRICKS”. Never say “MODELS BUILT OF LEGOs”.

No, this is what Brazil should've done decades ago but could not due to corruption and short-sightedness. Nowadays, the only model that they are trying to replicate is that of authoritarian regimes.
Yes, but a large fleet of smaller ships is much more resilient than a small fleet of large ships. A carrier is a single, massively expensive and important target.
Try dgVoodoo2, 99% of the issues with older games is due to DirectX abuse that at the time happened to work. dgVoodoo2 reimplements old versions of DirectX under Direct3D 11 with very lenient handling and it is by far the best wrapper for old DirectX and Glide. Almost every game i've had issues with under Windows 10 worked just fine using it.
HRNet; the most powerful new vision CNN architecture to come out since AlexNet!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIP3MrFWCpg

Join JingDong Wang - a Principal Research Manager from MSR Asia on a discussion of HRNet; the most exciting and powerful new vision CNN architecture to come out since AlexNet! This is seriously impressive and makes me incredibly proud to work for Microsoft. Just like in 2015 when we produced the best-of-breed vision architecture RESNET – this takes it to a whole new level.

HRNET is home-grown at Microsoft and has already demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in image classification, semantic segmentation, object detection, facial landmark detection and human pose estimation! Actually; this architecture would probably be state-of-the-art in almost every vision task – they just haven’t had time to implement on all upstream tasks yet!

The idea with HRNET is that it maintains a high resolution path throughout the entire network with cross-resolution pathways achieved with carefully designed “fusions”. Most traditional CNN architectures were designed in the days of image classification where high resolution was not important.

High resolution encoder networks now like Hourglass, Segnet, UNET etc, recover the high resolution from low resolution losing a lot of vital information in the process.

Previous CNN architectures modelled multi-resolution in series;

JingDong will;

Discuss the evolution of vision architectures leading up to HRNETDiscuss ablation studyDiscuss how to use HRNET for different upstream tasks and the respective SOTA performance and resultsPractical guidance on how to use HRNET

Check out HRNet on Github -- https://github.com/HRNet

> I can read at ~250 wpm; you can only talk at ~100 wpm.

I agree with your point that reading is better than listening for complex topics, but I don't agree this is the reason why, at least not for me.

I find that when someone is trying to orally explain something complex to me, I have to repeatedly tell them to repeat what they've said. They'll say a complex point, I'll think about it for a few seconds for the implications, and in that time they'll have said more things for which I was not listening because I was thinking of their previous point. I'll wait for a few seconds to see what keywords he'll say to see if I can fill in the lost seconds, and then just tell him to flat-out repeat the last X seconds if I can't figure out what he's talking about now. Telling him to repeat himself every few seconds is annoying to both of us, so I'll mostly just continue with what bits of information I can absorb at the speed he's speaking, and then we'll argue and find out the arguing wouldn't have been as necessary if I hadn't missed some points he said. Then we'll, again, talk about his speaking speed, but realize speaking without consideration of the listener is so core to him that it's hopeless to expect change.

It's mostly an issue with a coworker that doesn't think a bit before talking, as in he's not putting any effort into composing the information as he's providing it, and will just bombard me with mixes of relevant and not relevant information like a machine gun. It's exhausting to be super focused to spot when he's subtly gone off in a tangent and then argue with him about how that information is irrelevant to his previous point so he'll stop and get back on track to the issue.

Text, on the other hand, is usually composed, so the information is easier to digest. I can skim around based on keywords to find the most important information, and I can quickly go back and re-read to make sure I've understood the details of what I just read. I can also absorb this information at my own pace. I don't need to depend on the speaker matching his speaking to my listening.

I can also take my time in composing my reply and tune it so that it solves the issue with as little arguing and time wasted as possible.
long time lurker, just created my account to reply to your comment!

I just got back from a Japan tour so it was my first time in the country, but Kanazawa was one of my favorite parts of the trip that I wasn't expecting! The city has a nice blend of history as well as a decent downtown area. I think it is an authentic destination and seems like more of a spot for Japanese tourists than for the usual gaijin. All of the schoolchildren I saw tried to speak English with me and said "hello" which would never happen in the big cities! I also saw the smallest bars and restaurants I have ever seen in my life, with room for 4 people, in the back streets of the downtown area.

There were many good things to see in the city. The Kenroku-en Garden was a huge and beautiful park that you can meander about, that's on top of a small mountain. It is also connected to Kanazawa Castle which had the largest lawn I ever sat on. I also enjoyed the Museum of Contemporary art. The fish market is also famous, as is the Higashi Chaya District.

I can't recommend Kanazawa enough! Anthony Bourdain also visits Kanazawa in the beginning of the episode "Japan with Masa" on Netflix if you want a glimpse of the city.
That sounds awesome! If you're interested it would be cool if you put on an event for us all on JQBX [1] one day :) shoot me an email if you want and I can set it up.

But then, can't you do "boring and repetitive stuff" faster with higher order functions, metaprogramming etc.?

I'm not a professional developer and I occasionally look at it as a potential career (I have a plausible history with programming and have been called to interviews), but the idea that most programming is "repetitive" boggles me. I mean, if you literally have to type things over and over, can't you program it somehow?

`django` vs `django python` in search. Specificity makes a big difference in DDG results.
Okay, what is the real difference. Why is sending humans important?

Are not robotics many times more efficient money wise than sending a human? Robotics don't need near as much support as humans do, and can be sent one way without much moral quandary.

Can you imagine the costs and technology required to send humans out on a voyager mission.
This is a case of 'genericisation'.

He went bust.

Short of us sharing a military and state department, Chris almost had what he's asking for. The latter Clinton years and up through first few Bush II years had the states holding the their preeminence with a Congress that was loathe to step on states by way of preemption/supremacy clause. When the branches all flipped and the more liberal states starting feeling their oats the Courts shifted and were more eager to find in favor on Federal preemption in conflict cases. FCC actions upheld as they pertain to preempting state and local ISP regulations come to mind as the most egregious of recent flip-flops but I'm sure there are others.

We'll probably drop back to a more federalist state of affairs once the branches flip again.

I would even argue consumption is the best measure to use.
True. To be fair, it's true that the relativistic extensions to Bohmian mechanics are not as advanced as for the "standard" theory. But they are not necessarily impossible and the requirement of a prefered foliation may not be so unacceptable if the history of the universe goes back to a singularity (so there is a "local time since singularity" that gives somes sense to the idea of simultaneity).

Just because something is abusable doesn't mean it should be removed. The argument we are making is that the trafeoff proposed by Manifest V3 is bad. There are clear actions Google could have taken a long time ago to protect Chrome users. Banning remote code is one of them. Responding to abuse reports is another. These would directly mitigate abuse in Chrome Web Store. Banning chrome.webRequest is not one of these clear actions.

Hey Dad You Are the Best
The UK was more or less on it's knees in 1975, I think that without North Sea Oil there would be very little chance that it could have build the services economy and infrastructure it did in the 80's and 90's. I think that you also give our politicians too much credit in terms of managing a fund; remember that the UK was the biggest recipient of marshall aid after the war, and it spent it on patrolling an empire that it was clearly about to lose and subsequently lost. I think that politicians of both parties would have been very likely to raid any fund and use it for vanity projects.

Welcome to Lake Duck Pond, a fake town of 82,000 people
Higher frequency transistors require stronger electric fields. Stronger electric fields consume more power and produce more heat. CPUs are very small to benefit from low latency between components, but the tradeoff is that they have very little surface area to transmit heat. The ultimate governor of CPU performance is how much heat can be dissipated from the chip during standard operation. High-end chips have been able to hit 7+GHz with liquid nitrogen cooling for years.[0] Higher electric fields and smaller transistors also leads to gate leakage, where electrons tunnel across the potential barriers that are supposed to prevent conduction. This requires all sorts of microarchitecture tricks to fight, while at the same time wasting more power and producing more heat.

I feel like being rich is a combination of income and like assets/net worth. Like I know people who make 6 figures+ and live pay check to pay check because they have a lot of expenses.
Yup, exactly. To me, 'rich' means having the wealth to live off of the interest (where 'wealth' is defined rather expansively to include things like disability, Social Security & pension benefits as well as simple capital).

Yeah that’s the question isn’t it. Let’s say I run a B Corp, or a non profit. Do I really want to associate with some of these networks?

Or on the flip side, I run a website. I want to make some money to pay my expenses, but do I really want to inflict these ad networks on my readership?

It’s not the sort of project that’s going to make you rich. It’s the sort of project that lets you sleep better.

True and this may help if you just want to detach 1m of cable from one end (perhaps to route it another way). But replacing one cable in such a bunch is either a nightmare or a serious time sink, depending on how you look at it.

Zip ties are cheaper and faster, velcro might not be cheaper but still faster and a lot more flexible. This being said if I want to send a rover to Mars (so definitely a final install) I will not use zip ties :).
