You only need to run CI on Production, and you can squash commits. Generally a release is once per week, and at Oktas level you have a release engineer.

It’s my firm belief that NLP will eat all software engineers; web, backend, mobile and eventually even the ML engineers themselves. Embedded programmers are simply translating business requirements ( natural language ) into architectures at

Very cool usage of StyleGan! I think it’s a great idea but maybe allow poster prints? I wouldn’t put a lot of these on a shirt but family pics or nature photos would be nice to have styleized. But back to my original point: training stylega

If you want to try to train a StyleGan for instance with image sizes of 1024 to acceptable quality, you need either a lot of GPUs or a lot of time, or both.

It’s important to keep in mind that working at the next Solana Labs, Alameda Research etc is roughly equivalent in probability as getting drafted in the NBA. That is to say, there aren’t a lot of cases that happen.

If this were China...we could build a transnational canal network and federated power grid -- in 10 years. Unfortunately our (every?) democracy, moves too slow for that. So given the pace of large scale projects I'd say in 50 years ...

Not just Carlson.. any of the candidates are capable of beating him … most have higher elo and that elo is well deserved and stupendously hard won at that level. Wesley So beat him in the Grand Prix, he was in trouble once against Esipenko.

Also important to keep in mind he ( most likely ) wasn’t aware of US law. Not sure how Portugal classifies businesses such as these, but we know how e.g. Russia differs in this regard.

Stick with VSCode. “Editing code on the server”? This isn’t 2010. We use docker and continuous deployment, and if someone is trying to edit production code in the server something is deeply wrong.

We need some free-for-all zones to build new cities. I know with the current political structure it's near impossible, but "Hamsterdam" from the wire ( uhh, sans drugs and killings... ), comes to mind. A libertarian paradise.
