I am not sure how much I'm allowed to say publicly between NDAs and contracts and all that fun stuff (I may already be over the line, tbh) - but feel free to drop me an email at the address in my profile and I can point you to a few th

It's a compelling product niche, for sure - but still, awfully niche. I'm sure there's folks out there who will bite on the chance to have a top-line VR headset with Linux, but at the price point... gotta be a fairly small

interesting idea. I just was having Codex do some "financial advising" over the weekend, and I got some reasonable recommendations. In the case of codex, at least, I felt some friction about just how much of my data I was willing

Hoo boy. It's an awesome idea, don't get me wrong - and it's work that should definitely be done. But I've worked professionally in this space and it is wildly complicated. I've never seen how things are done on

That seems like the kind of "social app" that might actually work for me. I like the idea of sort of passively declaring "i am doing something, feel free to show up." I guess the potential failure mode is ... no one ev

Definitely interested in where you take things with the actual game - the engine looks really cool. It seems like we're in the midst of a bit of a cambrian explosion around "survival games descended from Minecraft" (Hytale is

> video game music I think it's a bit unfair to draw the line here. Some of the most memorable music in my life has been from video games and I'd hate to lose the human touch here just as much as I'd hate to lose the human

Yeah, but even if you go remote you still need to be able to have your income interrupted during your time in Recurse - which isn't viable for me.

I love the idea of Recurse Center and wish I had the time (and, transitively, money) to take a stab at it. Maybe some day!

I don't really use X but I'm in a chat where I'll often follow links, and man do I see a lot of racist stuff in replies. It's gross.

I made a new reddit account for a side project a few months ago and I couldn't believe how terrible reddit is when you don't have 10 years of subreddit curation. The default experience is to be dumped into what basically amounts t

Wow, this works way better than I expected. Fed it "Shimmer and Out" by Lotus, the intro of which is just a pretty simple guitar riff based around triad shapes - but it's the kind of thing I've seen Chordify just mangle.

Good god. The 360 and the NES are perfectly chosen to sting me personally (and I'm sure many others of my generation). A story I've told too many times at work: I was born in 1991. The first game console I owned was an NES which w

Yeah, that was kinda what I figured too, maybe something about the "pinwheel" shape makes the pruning harder (since beyond each bottleneck there's a large amount of useless search space.) Kinda tempted to go play with it now

I'm kind of surprised to find myself enjoying this because I've had a certain hatred for box pushing games. (maybe it's trauma from the sliding blocks in Pokemon games, heh). I guess I'm getting over it (maybe it's

I've been a Gitlab fan for a long time[0]. I typically default to GitHub for my repo slop[1], but if I'm doing something serious I put it in Gitlab. I like their CI setup better than GitHub and there's also self-host options

This meme is becoming extremely tiresome. This thing is cool, which should be enough. If you don't find it cool you can just click the next thing. As someone who's spent lots of AI time I still find this impressive. Let's see

The gambling roulette is triply annoying because it will inevitably start walking you through some flow where you're supposedly ending up with a big discount or free items or whatever-the-fuck. And if you're encountering it for th

where are you subbing to GLM-5.2? i've been meaning to try it out and for $3 it's a no-brainer to just load it up and give it a shot.

The problem with this idea is that it operates on the assumption that consumers will actually care about "provenance" on art. I just don't really buy that the set of people who care about that will be big enough for artists t

Man you went to a way cooler high school than me. I definitely was not taught anything that would help me understand how a nuclear reactor work.

I enjoy trying to get the maximal number of pieces from the log. My record is 16. The game is slightly annoying about forcing a rotate when i'm trying to shave thinner sections out of the log, so it's somewhat constrained. Can any

Do you have much experience reading musical notation? I've found that engineer types tend to immediately bristle at the weird parts of how notes are named because the system seems really kludgy until you realize that there's actua
