Spoiler: This is the best movie I’ve ever seen in my life period. This moment in the beginning draws you into the movie and then you have the intense effect of immersion throughout the film, and in the end the unreal scene where Ellie touc

Computer Vision tends to fail in surprising ways. The traditional cases are accounted for. It’s the big white box truck against the clear blue sky that will throw it off. It’s logical to think that a large object in the middle of the road c

I’m actually an experienced frontend engineer. This time it’s different. You reach the point where you’re on the outside because you bring too much to the position beyond what the hiring manager is looking for and you become a liability and

I have the exact opposite problem. I have multiple side projects and no job. No one wants to hire me because of my side projects because they’re full scale products.

Yeah it’s nice but IMO I’m not sure that this is the product I would put on it. I mean how many more apps do I need that insist on turning on my camera? Zoom fatigue and privacy needs are real things. And now this apparently detects who I’m

I don’t know about you but I’m able to pass the initial phone screens of most companies including every “FAANG”. It’s the technical interview portion which is the trap. You are expected to think on the fly while being scrutinized by someone

Whoa. Hyperdimensional what? Parsing through this felt a bit like being dumped into a pit of different puzzle sets mixed together. And I was lost in the terminology. It’s all very nebulous but I guess that’s the point.

Very surprised and sad to hear this. I mentioned this here before but it's worth going for the self narrated audio version as his book is best told in his own voice. It's one of the only few business books and business stories Iv&

I have had success with Reddit for my SaaS. Of course it is a GIF application that makes memes so that is a natural fit for a number of communities on Reddit. A standard gif typically gets 5-30k views however there are one or two examples t

Yes this concept explains it succinctly but I’m having trouble following the parent comment. Is it said that a product is a tool or solution that people pay for and you cannot design it like you can a tool that people don’t pay for? Of cour

Kind of reminds me of a talk by the third YouTube founder on how the convenience of not having to download video from ftp was enough. Easy Accessibility is key. https://youtu.be/XAJEXUNmP5M

There is a room with a giant chimney right next to the fence on the other end. I think it is a furnace. Here is some captured audio of the room from a few feet away. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gS1mkYPOeg25npQ

Sure. Imagine the small fence stretching for 80 meters and connecting to a buzzing furnace. https://drive.google.com/file/d/13yfIYqBZsr4jH6WnnfiyfNxwchj... btw any tips on insulating this fence post to reduce the

It’s interesting to see so many audio acoustics articles hitting the news. I’m in a crazy situation where I have a 80 meter iron fence beginning at a furnace/electric room and ending with a “L” shaped thick iron bar just below my bedro

Enyo was an unfortunate victim of the failure of the TouchPad. The actual JavaScript framework was/is great and was actually the real precursor to React. Some of its core component based principles made it there. The original Enyo team

I could see how this is useful. I indeed had to buy a Mac for the not so niche use case of web testing in iOS. Interestingly it’s so easy to debug chrome on iOS by just heading to chrome://inspect over http

This is neat: I would make it work by letting the user half or quarter the recipes. Most recipes online are for families and will give skewed results when parsing them.

I believe this to be part of a move toward Facebook becoming a subscription service. Something they should have been from the very beginning.

Is there a reason why the flights are all over water? LAX doesn’t have a body of water surrounding it other then the Pacific Ocean. Is that a requirement for the jet pack?

iOS has PWA too although severely limited, notably in the areas of webcam and push support. And other proprietary phone features like contact lists.
