SEEKING WORK

Location: Remote UK Remote

I have a strong background in technology, with over two decades of experience in the field. Throughout my career, I have built a solid foundation of core technical skills and knowledge. I am confident in my ability to understand and work with a wide range of technologies.

My favourite types of projects are those that involve AWS cost optimization and housekeeping. I have a knack for discovering inefficiencies and finding ways to save my clients money, and I enjoy the satisfaction of streamlining and organizing systems. I believe that these types of "housekeeping" tasks are often overlooked, but they can have a huge impact on a company's bottom line. I take pride in being able to deliver great results for my clients and getting the most value for their investment.

I am an AWS, Python, and CI/CD specialist with a focus on cost optimization in AWS. I am seeking ad hoc work that involves creating summary reports on cost optimization in clients' AWS environments. If you are interested in discussing this further, please don't hesitate to reach out.

That, among other things in Win11, was one of the last big pushes that got me to start using Linux full time. It's clear Windows isn't headed towards some bright future. Just more and more layers of shit on top of last gen. Like they can't actually finish anything. Just a katamari of code.
Yeah but my Windows 11 powerful laptop takes longer to boot than my old Windows 10 pc... there is no way you can just accept the bloatware and telemetry on top of the price of the OS.
Also Planetscale

edit: I'm okay with being downvoted, but I'm honestly asking why, not complaining. Is Planetscale not an interesting database?
People travel. This kind of approach is not uncommon and so annoying. Like Vodafone which didn't let me access the right country's version of their page to pay my bill while abroad. And Ing which listed only the local app in play store - couldn't download the Australian version in the UK.

That's literally being hostile to your customers where they may be under more pressure than normal to resolve whatever they're trying to achieve.

The 8088 die is almost the same as the 8086, but there are a few differences. There are two prefetch queue registers instead of three. But the 8088 queue registers are slightly more complicated because the chip needs to write one byte at a time instead of one word. So there's just a small gap in the layout. There are various changes in the memory cycle circuitry. And there are a few changes to the microcode. Once I finish with the 8086, I plan to look at the changes in the 8088 more closely.
Its not really the system that's the problem. There is a massive flu smashing the UK and the number of patients has gone from 500 to 3500 in a month. 5000 new Covid patients, and 9500 staff are out because of Covid. Its no wonder things are a little stressed.
The evidence disagrees. Housing-first policies in multiple countries have been a smashing successes in reducing addiction, so clearly there are some factors you're missing. For instance, theft and violence is a huge reason homeless people avoid shelters. Having a sanctuary that's somewhat secure from thieves and muggers means they actually add some stability. Stability makes their lives less shitty which reduces the urges to use to escape their shitty situation. That's just one example I've read about.

Technically a condo owner has fee simple (i.e. absolute) ownership of the airspace in their unit and tenancy in common (i.e. shared) with the other owners for the walls, floors and common areas.

I guess what you're arguing here is that groups of people shouldn't be able to own real property collectively, which would undermine a lot of the legal infrastructure that underpins business and society today; not just condos.

For example, what if one's parents die and probate leaves the family house to the adult children (who are obviously not married to each other), how would they take title?

Well, private schools take approx. 550k pupils out of state schools while parents still pay the same amount of tax.

Since the state system spends about 6.7k per pupil this means either (a) that the state saves 3.7b a year, or (b) that the state could spend an extra 380 pounds per state school pupil with the money.

My conclusion is that private schools are helping tremendously but are singled out for ideological reasons/politics of envy. Many families who send their children to private schools could not afford a 20%+ in tuition fees, so would fall back on state schools and the net effect on state schools/government finances would be negative.

It's different for healthcare because, first as you mention everyone has to go to NHS' A&E for an emergency, but also now the same facility/professional runs both NHS and private services. If you need to go to (NHS) hospital for potentially important checks and analyses they'll tell you the next appointment available is in 3 months on the NHS or next week privately. Dentists will say that they don't take new NHS patients but will happily see you the next day privately (that one is purely because NHS charges have not been increased in 10+ years so that dentists don't want to bother with so little money anymore).

If private healthcare had to be provided only in fully private facilities then potentially it could help. But, same as for schools, the state should not take the opportunity of fewer patients to cut spending.

All that being said, at the moment the main issue at A&Es and hospitals seems to be a massive surge in the number of patients.
> Maybe, there is a reluctance to accept that changes in lifestyle as opposed to pharmacological treatment can alter biological mechanisms.

My doctor told me that he doesn't recommend lifestyle changes for, e.g. diabetes, because patients ignore it. It seemed to annoy him when I chose low carb over metformin and glyburide and succeeded. I think that with him his policy was more because he was an agreeable type who did not want to be put in a position to have to hector his patients. But as a result he wasn't informing us well either. It was conflict avoidance rather than doubt as to biological mechanisms.

My 15 year old Delphi program which runs the whole factory still hasnt been replaced, despite the company and IT staff growing by 10x. Its now taken 4 years, 3 IT Managers and 2 consulting firms to decide Delphi is archaic and it will all be re-written using "cloud and modern frameworks". They have given the team of 3 developers 2 years to do it. Considering they have not managed to keep a developer or IT Manager for longer than 18 months, I would say good luck. I really dont know how anyone gets anything done these days.
Full disclosure I haven't used 1Password in a while and I have limited experience sharing vaults. That being said Bitwarden just worked™. It was easy to set up a shared space. The iOS app is good, the plugins are good, all around solid. The open source nature is nice, I can run my own vault if I wanted to. So the tldr is that it hit the right balance between portability, ease of use, and price to be the right choice.
I guess you could look at the Mac Benchmarks of Geekbench: https://browser.geekbench.com/mac-benchmarks

Let's forget the whole Apple Silicon thing, and look at 2020. The difference in single core is minuscule, but the big difference is multicore. Unless you need those extra cores, those computers are equivalent.

Now compare a 2010 Mac Pro and the 2010-2012 consumer laptops. Single core is 100%, multi-core is at least 400%. That's a big delta and that's only 2010.

If you go back into the past, it would surely ebb and flow but surely stay in that zone. I'd expect a laptop to be half the speed of a big pro desktop all the way to the prehistoric times when all computers were beige and laptops charged extra to get rid of screen ghosting.
When I got my new HVAC system installed a few months ago (heat pump, woohoo!), they needed to upgrade my thermostat, so they gave me a Honeywell VisionPro 8000, which is a "smart" thermostat but, like your T9 (I think), demands WiFi and some garbage "cloud" service to access the connected features.

I replaced it with a T6 Pro, a thermostat which is by all other metrics a downgrade, but which has a single killer feature: Z-Wave. No phoning home, no janky embedded devices on my WiFi network, just a solid integration with Home Assistant that falls back to a regular thermostat if my HA server is down.

Seems like Honeywell is moving away from making Z-Wave versions of their products, because I think most consumers are generally content to tunnel their request through some shitty cloud thing every time they want to turn the heat up... but for those of us who are a little more ideologically rigid about keeping their stuff LAN-only, would definitely recommend grabbing a T6 Pro while they're out there.
It is a catastrophe for the humanity by the very definition of catastrophe. I love this gung-ho nihilism as much as the next person but come on. No one thinks a supernova 80 million light years from Earth will be sad but of course it is a human-centric view as it is expressed by humans, who for all we know are the only advanced intelligent beings in the universe.
You need to look at the fact that our rate of population growth is negative. Sperm counts are averaging around 40 mill which is enough to require medical assistance. The human race is, in fact past peak growth and declining.
I feel like thinking you have to take measures to prevent future potential betrayals by your colleagues demonstrates a profound LACK of trust in them.
Whether or not the current technology is useless is an empirical question. How many people are using ChatGPT, Stable Diffusion, etc. for economically or personally valuable activities? We actually don't know.

Even if we assume the technology is useless in its current state, it is still incremental progress. Could we have predicted 10 years ago what neural networks would be capable of today? Now, tell me what neural networks will be doing in 10 years. If you think you know the answer with any degree of certainty, you're probably deluded.

I am seeking a position as a mid or senior-level front-end engineer. I have 8+ years of experience working at various levels of responsibility as a front-end developer throughout my career. My previous work was as the creator of a thorough visualization of MMA matchups (https://mmabetsharp.com). The work encompassed a large breadth of skills including core front-end work, design, visualization, scraping, data structuring, as well as social media engagement via public discourse and other various channels.
I consider myself a generalist in the front-end space. I have a good knowledge of web technology fundamentals, but I also rather appreciate the higher level tools brought in by the React-era.

I have experience in ecommerce, both as a developer and administrator. I have worked on the development of inventory management tools for online clothing retailers. I have also used the Shopify platform to create a portal to sell woodworking products.

I have enough maturity as a developer to balance the cost of writing maintainable software with the need to write effective software quickly. I understand software is inherently complex, and if neglected, tends to devolve into something very difficult. I also understand businesses and companies, especially smaller ones, operate with limited resources, and that the ability to drive a product forwards can be essential.

I've been thinking about... The nature of complexity in software. How can we apply functional programming concepts to a domain that is largely event-driven and mobilized by effects? How can we reduce excessive "wiring" between components and increase modularity? How can we create a level of abstraction over system components that ensures logical consistency while avoiding excessive overhead? How do we balance the need for "correctness" (typing, tests, refactoring, experimentation) with the need to deliver a product within limited time and resource constraints?

Aside, I also have some experience with physical goods, having created and operated a small woodworking company for 3 years. During the time I received unsolicited praise for the top quality of my work. I apply the same ethic to my programming work:

Why do we not choose to broaden the range of species that we cultivate? Are most just another species of rat or weed? Maybe more varieties of carrot are just better. Or just more carrots in general for that matter.
> It's just choice.

my unscientific opinion, but i feel like people unconsciously associate validation of other (products, lifestyle etc) with an invalidation (ego) of their own choices... they are personalizing things...

> Even with a fair use argument, there are examples in cases where AI was generating art that included the signatures of artists.

I went through the post, and I am not sure whether I agree with the analysis of the examples. Diffusion models are conceptual parrots, and it is possible that "25% images contain a scribble in the bottom right corner, so the model will make a scribble in the corner" is what is being construed as a signature in this post.

I think a large part of outrage from the artists about diffusion model "stealing" art comes from a place of disbelief that machines can be this good without "stealing", and it's perfectly natural. In fact, it's unnatural to me how good machines have gotten in image generation, and it is a field I've been following for five years now. However, because I understand the model and can implement it myself, I can convince myself it doesn't need to steal, just needs to be able to model correlations at some ungodly level.

There's the report option for that. I got one too but they should be eliminated pretty quickly if the creator is actually acting on reports at all.
Pretty much any country that approaches development and has equal rights for women leads to a birth rate bellow replacement level. You don't need to castrate anyone, you give women education, birth control, require dual incomes to effectively survive as a family unit, equal rights and an (semi-)urban lifestyle and it pretty much shakes out to that automatically. Eventually the issue will be to have enough children, and an economic model that that can deal with shrinking old populations without horrific consequences.

There is only 77 countries that are above the replacement rate and it's going down everywhere: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sovereign_states_and_d...
Is that your own idiom? Literally never heard it before and I collect idioms.
In my experience, most greybeards on this forum will be able to recall that command from memory. It's part of the reason why HN is the place to be, these days.
I’ve heavily used both mypy/pyright.

The semantic differences are mainly in areas where type system is not specific enough on exact behavior expected. As an example if you have a function that has overloads how do you decide which overload to pick? Sometimes that can become ambiguous especially when type variables are involved or multiple overloads match. Cases like that are where you see most intentional differences and as a user of both type checkers I consider depending on specific behavior there to be like using c++ compiler’s undefined behavior.

The bigger area I see differences is feature development/bug fix velocity. Mypy is maintained well. Pyright is maintained magically and I’ve reported bugs that maintainer fixes the same day. Most bug reports to pyright get fixed in a week. Only a couple tend to stay open for a while. New type system features (peps) get implemented really fast in pyright and usually if you try to use very recent features you will need to wait a while for mypy to catch up. A good example is release time for paramspecs or typevartuple. Most of the time new type system peps are added in pyright while still in draft stage.

With SQLite there is no "database process" unless you are explicitly only using a dedicated process to make the queries through which isn't necessary with SQLite anyway.

That being said, the problem here is not whether N+1 is a problem or not, but rather if, given the immense amount of unnecessary complexity that using an ORM brings, it is appropriate to use an ORM.
This is such a trite and unhelpful comment. Everyone on HN knows there are alternatives (which are not even true alternatives as far as compatibility with most software is concerned)
A bit more specifically, looks like pyright was designed to serve as a language server for VS Code.

This means being able to incrementally type check incomplete code blocks and to also infer & suggest types, where mypy is too slow and/or just doesn’t support those features.
How is this different than the World Wide Web in general?

Post has been flagged. Pasting my reply to the person replying to me below:

I guess the answer to my question is that if more people migrate to Mastodon it supports the development of a tool of great use to CSAM, and until recently of primary use by CSAM-affiliated individuals.

Government intervention is probably the best means of preventing this use of Mastodon. Unlike distributed cryptocurrencies it should be much easier to shut down Mastodon instances promoting illegal acts than it would be to prevent the promotion of illegal acts via crypto.

As an aside I'm somewhat weirded out by the images the linked site chooses for many of their articles.
I understand this “looks cleaner” but we should really understand what the transpiler or compiler is doing behind the scenes. Functional code like this might introduce bottlenecks in performance.

In some languages the imperative for loop is the most efficient way to iterate, sometimes the compiler does optimize functional code into imperative code
