My mostly remote tech company has unlimited PTO. I'm on track for 8 weeks this year, like last year. I've found more than 8 weeks to be stressful because I still have to get things done. It's definitely one of the reasons I&#

I made a compass app for when I'm driving. Shows direction, speed, and coordinates. Doesn't work of you're not moving. I love it.

The Dark Tower series by Stephen King. Totally changed how I view literature and life. Made me believe in magic again.

I think it's a fallacy to believe to that simplicity has a rather obvious form. From the view point of a SaaS developer, at some point you have to add a bunch of business logic that is determined by what's needed to satisfy requir

I blocked Reddit on my phone so now my mindless interest in Hacker News has gone up a bit.

I find co-pilot to be useful. It forces me to write a lot of comments and the comments drive the code. For new personal projects, chatGPT can get some ideas going fast, but I end up changing a lot of it. ChatGPT does show me a lot of new li

My only issue with concepts such as the Darwin Awards is that they do not reflect upon whether or not the deceased has reproduced. To attribute darwinism to lethal mistakes is meaningless unless we know whether or not the deceased has a chi

I exercise everyday, use THC at night, and apply high concentration magnesium lotion to my forearms at night. Be careful with weed though. Deep sleep but less REM.

In the US, it could be argued that big tech, and the government through big tech, violate the 4th amendment - specifically regarding a reasonable expectation of privacy. Can an individual reasonably know the data that every platform has on

I think it's okay to do tasks that others (including AI) can do better and faster. For me personally, making art is as much of the process as the end product. I like to draw digital art and paint and make digital music. I find the acti

The movies Okja and Earthlings. Made me realize I could not continue to support the exploitation and abuse of animals.

You might be surprised if you ask the people you work with. I'm doing a part time MS while I work, but one of my ex managers who wrote a letter for me encouraged me to go to school and leave the company and work on cool things.

The name of Lavender makes this so surreal to me for some reason. I'm of the opinion that algorithms shouldn't determine who lives and dies, but it's so common even outside of war.

I would hope that research is a major part of a masters in ML. It is for my Cybersecurity MS which has an informal focus on ML.

Veganism doesn't have anything to do with eating processed foods though. As a vegan in the US, this feels more like a rebuttal to the Standard American Diet and the US food culture. > Hand milking a cow is harmless to the cow, chees

I'd argue it's hard to know whether you want to work at a company unless you interview. The cost of interviewing is miniscule compared to the cost of hiring. I agree, always be courteous and professional, but you have to interview

I take classes as a starting point. Then if a course is interesting, it will usually spark ideas that I want to explore further.

My dad is over 60 and he is rarely home because he travels a lot for work. Just like he always has. I'm not going to ask him because I don't want to know the answer, but part of me is doubtful that he would claim me or my brothers

I would differentiate between full-time job and having to commute. My role went from being in the office to full remote, and during that transition I started a part time masters program. I literally use the hour before and after work to do

I look at yesterday's notes once per day. Sometimes I'll look for a specific note if I think it has important details that I have forgotten. I have a to-do list in the MacOS notes app. When I'm working on a list item I might
