If a board rejects a (very) competent person based on the person’s gender, race, sexuality, age, then… they lost a very competent person. That person will do great work outside of that board. Can we agree on this? Also, is that some sort of

I don’t think a computer could know what the artist intended to create. I wonder, how accurate can the computer be at predicting the next note (the first note from the uncompleted section)? Is that an interesting question?

It's also important to read the docs for that ansible playbook, know what certbot does, setup the nginx proxy accordingly or remove the nginx proxy. Maybe I should have done this on a mint machine.

Setting up a matrix server on an ec2 took a few evenings (lots of reading docs). Then, setting up discord was supposed to be more configuration… Element has hosted instances for 10$/month and discord bridges for 20$/month? Does an

Wow! I always think these can be somehow generalized: Uber, Craigslist, Facebook Market, ebay. Connecting buyer/seller. Maybe it will be possible to index/search through Matrix and connect people together better?

Wow! I really like lots of this, and I’ll look into air quality monitors. The only exercise I recently had an urge to do was laying on the bed (diagonally) and lay my arms up near my head. I swim almost daily for 10mins and I do not know: h

I remember searching for S2 (+”geofencing”, “map”) and not being able to find it. What search terms would have helped?

I have a friend in a situation like this who will fall asleep while coding late at night and sleep few hours. I don’t know how you (and he) do it, but awesome!

Tesla is going to work on restaurants and also mining now. It’s interesting that they are widening their scope. I wonder how can a company be so confident in their new pursuits?
