Currently technical lead for control systems of a flagship product at a quantum focused company. I work regularly with PhD physicists, electrical engineers, and lead a small team of software engineers to design, develop, and test both realtime and non-realtime control systems in a mix of constrained and unconstrained execution environments. I prefer to stay closer to the hardware, but above a kernel, and ideally on a network. Mostly work with Rust and Python these days, with Scheme on the side, but I can learn any toolchain quickly. I can even hack stuff together in the browser, but it won't be pretty. As you may probably guess, I have deep experience with scientific and distributed computing and networking.

I'm not actively looking, but for the right opportunity I'll hear you out.
Will AI save us from Salesforce dashboards?
I've had to use many CRMs, from Hubspot to Salesforce to Pipedrive. Didn't love it.

I do, however, love taking notes with good ol Apple notes.

My notes are filled up with todos, call logs, feature requests etc.

The other day I started thinking, maybe I could just use a simple notes app and have GPT do all the organizing for me.

Turns out it could, and it could do it extremely well. Now I can just log a quick voice note or type as I'm on a call and then everything else is more or less figured out.

I thought others might have a similar problem and threw together a quick landing page. Would love to know what you think.

#1 problem in my experience.
I know what the font looks like, and I already said this doesn't help with configuring an editor. I wasn't trying to tell you to do anything or not do anything.
This is really cool, but it's funny to use C# primarily as an awkward substitute for C as you call Win32.

For most practical purposes, the default .NET 8 AOT is great if you really need native code.
Would military planes be equipped with ACAS, and could ACAS avert this type of collision?
I have a Pixelbook that I picked up on ebay for cheap. I was planning on loading MrChromebox's custom firmware and installing a "real" Linux and all that, but honestly the thing does everything I need (a browser and a shell) so easily I didn't even bother. You can install an Ubuntu VM in a couple clicks, it supports Wireguard natively and it has a touchscreen. I don't even run it in developer mode any more. I'm really happy with the stock ChromeOS these days shrug
Are you guys trying out Julia at all or is that just certain ASML internal teams?
Thanks for the heads up.

Seems pretty.... uncanny for them to do that :D
Also almost every smartphone I know of has acceleration sensors and can do Kalman filtering of the GPS position to achieve a much higher accuracy in practical use, even if the individual measurements are only accurate to ~5 meters.

First of all: I fully agree with you. The calculation should be listed explicitly in the mortgage documents.

I've also struggled through figuring it out on my own, and the two things that got me to less than a dollar of difference were:
1) "Mortgage" in Canada is a specific legal term used for fixed term mortgages that compounds every 6 months. Therefore, to get your effective annual you take you have to convert it: ((1 + nom_rate/2)^2)-1
2) You then take your effective rate, divide by the days in the year to get your daily rate. You then take your daily rate, multiply it by your outstanding principle, and multiply it by the number of days since your last payment. That result is the amount of interest you pay, and the rest of your payment goes to pay down principle.

In practice, I have a monthly payment, and just divide my annual effective rate by 12, and call it close enough. The extra precision of daily vs monthly isn't worth the extra complexity in the spreadsheet.
Because they had a different analysis of the situation than you did, not because they had the same analysis and just chose to be assholes.

What happens when you need 5 subscriptions as content is divided by the streaming services? I suppose you could make the analogy to paywalled websites.

Paywalled websites are "leaky" and there's syndication, or we'd need subscriptions to get different news feeds.

It's not as if there were some electronic currency we could send per item, since companies are still really big on bundling. More money for a lot of stuff you don't want. Will that ever change? (oh, the monopoly over content factor)

The companies are market-driven, so what would drive them to a la carte pricing? And wasn't that predicted ages ago?
Look at the referenced IBM docs: They included the actual schematics of the adapters. I don't know if they are 100% complete, but even so, that level of technical detail is almost unimaginable now.

> it's hard to let go of my ego

This is what mindfulness meditation is best for. Drugs are just a cop out.
It was interesting seeing this from the other side as well. I have what I thought was an obsolete motorized awning with an obscure failure. I couldn't find anything about it so when I managed to fix it, I decided on a lark to grab my phone and record a short video. I didn't expect it would be of much use to anyone.

Now it has 80k views and dozens of comments thanking me for helping them fix their awning. (https://youtu.be/qae0XM4Dn4U)
Yeah I was planning to do some RTT measurements at some point but have not gotten round to implementing it. Would be great to have that directly in the ui as well!

As you said, I was thinking to get capture->send latency and receive->emulate latency and subtracting that from the RTT to get an estimate of both network and system latency (without the compositing / presentation latency of course which is likely the largest part without some 500hz monitor).
Good game. I also played 3D Pacman in DOS in an IBM PS1, this was years before Wolfenstein and Doom. Today we have come full circle!

It was used as that though, I was in Paris during both Charlie Hebdo (close to one of a student i worked with lived) and during the Bataclan (family member was working at the football game where the secondary attack attempt took place). SMS and calls were overloaded, i didn't have any social media account, so Facebook was out for me, twitter was the only place i got news.

Now, i don't think i would even consider using it though. Mainly because you have to create an account, but also i think the quality degraded since Covid and i can't check if its becomming better (nitter tells me it isn't though).
As a wise man once said, "Write games, don't play them."
I swapped to https://www.thelightphone.com/ as my phone. According to my iPhone, my daily usage hovered around 7 hours.

It's relatively expensive and a little janky but it's insane how much more time I feel I have in my day. My work has improved (if my commit-calendars are any indication), and I no longer spend time in bed scrolling when I sleep / wake up.

Many people try "Sober October" - I've just completed "Dumbphone December" and I don't think I'll be going back.
lovely story, appreciate the transparency. why the name spoonbill?
I think it's too early to reserve the word agent. Especially when we could bring back Daemon.
Whether he's morphing Twitter as a new bastion of free speech remains to be seen. Musk himself says that saying the word "cis" is a slur with threats of suspension for saying it. Meanwhile, transgender people are actively being deadnamed and harassed with no repercussions to those committing those actions. Which is a clear violation of their Hateful Conduct policies.

Then when companies decide "Hey, I don't want to give my money to a company like that" based on reports of rising hate comments and speech on the platform Elon then threatens to sue them despite their protected speech.

It's giving "free speech for me but not for thee", which rubs a lot of people the wrong way. And, to many, this incredibly public meltdown of Twitter and Elon's inability to not be the center of attention is why people are laughing. It's absurdity to the nth degree.
While I agree with you in that we should have more native applications that are more conscious of how much resources they're using, making that transition from Electron to Native is probably not easy and riddled with pitfalls. Unless there's a standard path, how do you sell that to your superiors in the company in terms of opportunity cost?
Wait, so are they asking for nano or Emacs? Either way, their solution already exists.
Tactical Thermonuclear Gnome
my point is that the topic of Musk's actions and impacts absolutely can be ignored if that isnt the question you are interested in.

For example, I can ask and be interested in how the cost per click/sale on twitter compares to meta, without diving into they question of why.

That is certainly how I took the question at least.

The best part is when I die I feel like I made a dumb mistake, and that if I improved just a few things I could be way better.

I think I've heard Miyamoto talk about that. When the frustration is all with yourself (rather than with the game itself), and you just know that if you try one more time, that'll be the one where you won't make any dumb mistakes. I think it's the cornerstone of every action game that appeals to me.

> Speech impediment? [list of things that are not speech impediments]

When I'm concentrating hard on a tricky problem, I often forget my surroundings. I've been known to get distracted mid-sentence, and I would love if somebody would discreetly interrupt me when I go off on unnecessary extended tangents. I write myself cue cards one might give a child because I learned how to write cue cards while I was a child, and it's a pretty good system that works for me – but, because my vision is good, I can write them small enough to palm discreetly. I would not want to be in a car driven by me.

None of these things render me unfit for governance, organising, leading people, or understanding laws. In fact, I dabble in all of these things and, where I'm practised, I'm not half-bad. (Not exceptional, mind, but mostly competent.) I can even give speeches that appear memorised, given a month to write and a week to rehearse.

I am not yet old, so nobody calls me senile. But if such attitudes are what I have to look forward to, even if I myself do not change at all, I think we should improve society somewhat.

> > Please, criticise him for the things he's actually done wrong

Thanks! This looks like it's about politics, not ableist ageism. (No comment on the validity of your criticism.)
Sounds great, yeah i think having a free lead gen offering that you can somehow cross-sell into another product line is the way to work here. Once you have some "customer data" like "size of wedding" you are positioned to experiment with suggestions.

Good luck!

I have been involved with computers since my earliest age - my first experience in programming was using BASIC on Commodore 64 some 30 years ago. Since then I've had experience with a lot of different computer languages and technologies. I am a forward-thinking professional offering more than 20 years of experience and versed in multiple programming languages, frameworks and development tools. Background in product development, project coordination and client communications.

I am the author of https://sshreach.me/ and https://gabngabn.com/

At this moment I am not searching for a job that uses PHP, or JavaScript/Typescript as primary languages/technologies.
"It's screenshots of tweets. Yeah, it's a crappy format but the users have spoken."

Like every sane person, I hate this reality, but I'm also fascinated by the pragmatic work that has still gone into alleviating the worst aspects of it— specifically platform-level support in iOS for recognizing text in images and making that text selectable and searchable.

What tech do you use for the infotainment system?
It's also a better company strategy to be an augment vs replacement. Like, advertise that you can get twice as much done not that you can get the same amount done with half the effort.

If somebody spends 10M on Labor then at best you can change 10M to replace their labor costs. Lets say its 1,000 people.

If you instead argue that those people are now 2x as efficient you can sell the company of the idea of paying for 2,000 seats when their company grows.
Thank you for your valuable thoughts.
The best part of Bernie Madoff's grift, in my opinion, is that it follows the notion that "you can't cheat an honest man".

No one had any legitimate idea for how Bernie could beat the market by such an amount and so consistently, and yet they still invested. They must have thought that he was insider trading or suspected that it was a Ponzi. Roughly half his investors made money by cashing out, which is not something you'd usually do if you thought the fund was legitimate.
Mind the cost though! A single request with a fully loaded 128k token context window to GPT-4 Turbo costs $1.28.
> An opinion being minority has no reflection on whether or not it is correct.

I entirely agree. But if you find yourself in the minority, then I encourage you to objectively consider what's more likely: Are you right, or are most other people right? Or maybe there is no right and wrong (aside from being consistent)?

Sometimes the minority is right. But usually that's not the case.

> See hand washing in the medical profession before it was understood.

Ooookayy. I would not compare any technical decision in this space to that. A bit grandiose. More traditionally one says "10k flies can't be wrong: poop must taste great!".

> If a person can't write down (convincingly) all of the tacit knowledge required to make the same decision, they are not being dishonest.

I agree. As long as they don't claim otherwise. I'm sure you're an expert, with lots of experience. Experience that creates a good judgement, and good intuition. But that also describes the majority of the experts, who, turns out, disagree with you.

>> You'd be surprised.
> No, I wouldn't.

Then... you disagree with the "of course", you said.

> mail package version is decreased from 2.8.0 to 2.7.1

What does that mean? A dependency version decrease? If this is a commit on the mail package itself, then what does it mean?

I'm going to assume that's a dependency version change.

"10k flies can't be wrong" is one thing, but "the majority expert opinion in my field is wrong"... is almost always wrong.

Most theories are wrong, even by experts. It's not even embarrassing to be wrong.

But to defend your policy on objective grounds, is like asserting Ruby should be used for all programming. It's Not Even Wrong. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_even_wrong
Surprisingly, the Extract Text from Image action is available on Intel Macs: normally, features like automatic-image-OCR is limited to Apple Silicon Macs.

Wrong. I'm talking about total amount eaten. It's one of the top 3 globally.
> It's a shame that we don't have open formulas in code form published by the government.

I completely disagree. Then you're just handing them a mechanism to make this as complicated as they possibly can. Taxes should be simple enough to be fully understood by the people paying them.

I'm not some algorithmic tool for the government to abuse when it's failed to balance it's budgets and I should not _need_ software to figure out something so basic as a deduction in wages.

> doing this by hand is quite painful and error-prone.

It's a shame there isn't a law forcing the government to make this possible.

historically, a national religion has taken the role of support for the poor. It appears superficially that Prof. Yanus is advocating a capital model for economics, which conflicts or is a power-rival to a state religious model. Honestly, as an American, the support of Richard Branson and The Hillary appears to be damaging, since the politics of Islam are often about rejecting Western European authority. disclaimer- not involved, not near this issue
I don't really want to get into a big argument. Government organization is a gigantic field with lots of questions and we would have to go into more detail. Both systems have lots and lots of issue. I don't like the EU and have no interest in defending it either.

> The USA is both richer and more democratic than Europe. You will need to accept this fact before mocking the Americans.

Politics and government organization has something to do with that, but not everything. If the US had the current government style after WW2 then they would be equally or more successful then they are.

If its more democratic is questionable on lots of fronts, specially comparing with individual countries and not the EU specifically.

And frankly GDP is one thing, I rather live in most places in Europe either way. And I much rather live in the richer parts of Europe then in the US and I much, much rather live in poor part of the Europe then the poor parts the US.
These stories are almost certainly describing leadership, possibly a Founder or a VP.

(Doesn't sound like a bad middle-manager that snuck in through the cat door. But I could be wrong!)
That's the reality of global economics and finance. Arbitrage is foundational in how finance works. Companies should just stop doing that?

Or is very young. I hadn't applied to a lot of jobs when I got my first job. For the second, though, I spent a year unemployed in the middle of the dotcom crisis and must have applied to hundreds.
