FIYNTBOM Financial Independence, You're Not The Boss Of Me. Once you're financially independent, at a level that you're comfortable with, you don't have to put up with crappy bosses. If you're Sergey Brin, you kind

I'd love a landscape keyboard for my Pixel 8 in landscape mode. Oh well.

I don't know what you'd call something structured like this, but I really love that advice: "You can't change the people around you - But you can change the people around you."

Did you grab lunch at Smitty's? I live 5 miles west of the maker space in the last photo, and I've been thinking about getting some Meshtastic nodes...

Just out of curiosity, what happens when you buy a gift card for Toys R Us or Red Lobster or K-Mart, and then the company goes out of business?

I think Tailscale shares is what we currently are supposed to use? You share some "semi-public" host with all of your friends... And then you're not necessarily chatting with famous people, but you can have a near-and-dear-so

Hi, sure, you can say, "I will always view the world through the eyes of Game Theory." But don't forget, we discovered Nash Equilibrium, which changed how people behaved, in many interesting scenarios. Also, from a purely Gam

In college, we printed out the screenplay, and picked parts, and read it together. It was tremendous fun. Highly recommended.

Boids, Game of Life, Genetic Algorithms, Pixel Shaders... All so satisfying to play with. One of my favorites was when I was sure I was right about the Monty Hall problem, so I decided to write a simulator, and my fingers typed the code...

In grad school, I wrote an ant simulator. There was a 2D grid of squares. I put ant food all over it, in hard-coded locations. Then I had a neural network for an ant. The inputs were "is there any food to the left? to the diagonal

I find myself wanting genetic algorithms to be applied to try to develop and improve these structures... But I always want Genetic Algorithms to show up in any discussion about neural networks...

I wonder when you're never going to run expensive software on your own CPU. It'll either all be in the cloud, so you never run the code... Or it'll be on a chip, in a hermetically sealed usb drive, that you plug in to your co

Right, but what if I just shared a script? You start with a digital copy of the movie I'm starting from... I extract the audio... And then my script downloads the Public Domain movies... ...and I've got a hard-coded list of cuts t

Well, with things like this, I feel like someone could get interesting results pretty quickly: https://lintangwisesa.github.io/MediaPipe-in-JavaScript/inde... https://github.com/cosyneco/MediaPipe.

I'm also kind of reminded of A Scanner Darkly. That would be another interesting movie to reconstruct this way. I'm also reminded of those posters in the mall, where from a distance, it's an actor's face. But when you

I have an absolutely bizarre desire to download all of these, and then rip them apart, scene by scene, and then estimate pose, facial pose, gender, etc. Do facial recognition, so I know where the same actor is in all of the scenes... And t

I used to work somewhere that owned everything I did in my spare time. Now, I don't. I've started trying to seed ideas, more, now.

I wonder if some weird kind of aggregation could go on. At the end of the month, I'm told to donate my entire $10 to some obscure tool I've never even heard of. The system did all of the tracking, across all users, and then figure

I'm thinking more about a subscription to a monthly fee that you and I and other fans of OSS voluntarily pay. Say, I pay $10 a month. It figures out I used curl 850 times. I used gunzip 1246 times. And etc. It may turn out that I&#x

If you're making a product, I think Kickstarter is awesome. If you're making entertainment, I think Patreon is awesome. If you're making OSS... I'm not sure we have a good system. Buy Me A Coffee or a TipJar... Starri

Everybody Wang Tiles tonight. But seriously, I didn't realize I wanted this. I was hoping to experiment with just repeating the same tile. This gives me hope that other people will make these techniques approachable.

I've seen those empathy circles, where liberals care more about people on the fringe of society, and conservatives care more about people in the middle of society (apologies, if I'm butchering the explanation.) I'm curious, h
