This is likely because your eyes are not closing all the way when you sleep. Close your eyes casually and have someone look. They probably will see the whites of your eyes. Try training yourself to close your eyes completely when you sle

While I applaud creatively exploring new programming language concepts, I find this language confusing. Both the compiler and the flight simulator appear to be vibe coded. The documentation for the language is full of errors or things tha

Perhaps the term "canalization" fits? Coined by C.H. Waddington, describing the process of forming a chreode in a homeorhetic system. But it doesn't really encompass the "everything becomes overly generalized" con

Broadly speaking, engaging in a task activates the task-positive network, which actively suppresses the default mode network [1][2][3]. This likely happens during meditation [4], as during properly done meditation, one is supposed to be fo

None of that is true, so far as I know. I remember him as kind and considerate. That doesn't mean he wasn't demanding, but he was quite fair, and sensitive to the impact of his words and actions.

I've worked with Surojit; he was an absolute superstar. He rose through the ranks on the basis of mountains of backbreaking and incredibly impactful work.

Do you think that's true of pharmaceuticals/biotechs as well? Or just academia?

Not always true - but finding a very good programmer who knows the domain well enough to make a significant impact is challenging.

This does not have to be true. You can certainly pursue interesting biology research questions informed by a software engineering POV.

The chemistry requirements are minimal. You should understand the difference between ionic and covalent bonds, how van der Waals forces work, hydrophobicity, solubility, and the effects of catalysts on reaction transition states. It will

If you want to find good jobs like this, you should check out the monthly HN "Who is hiring" threads. There aren't that many biotechs, but there are a few (like ours). I agree about the need for better tooling. There'

Generally, our stance is to prefer strictness, impurity, and clarity of analysis around speed and memory usage, instead of laziness, purity, and elegance. Also I prefer the Ocaml module system and its FFI, though I am wistful about Haskell

We'll be using Ocaml extensively for building out certain aspects of our pharmaceutical research and development platform.

Given your background I'd love to talk to you. Since HN doesn't have private messages as far as I know, would you be willing to contact me at the email address in my profile? Thanks! Neil
