Very cool site, however... ...my takeaway is a little different than what is in the commentary box (for the year 2017 in particular). The distribution of incomes don't actually look that different, to my eye. If this is the grand rev

I think a more interesting dichotomy than "productivity" vs "business" is "efficiency" vs "efficacy". Our work culture (and business pop culture) has come to worship at the shrine of efficiency &

This is the most interesting exchange in my opinion: Do you think you integrate your Tetris skills into your everyday life? Tetris has had a major impact on how I think about randomness. For example, it’s very hard for humans to estimate wh

(OP here). In practice my stress level about this (for me and my family) is about zero. Eight year olds are quite smart; he knows exactly what is going on here and finds it entertaining. Real dad’s presence isn’t going anywhere. It’s largel

Yeah - a possible next step here would be to fine-tune on my own writing or speech. I don't think it's too wild of an idea, frankly.

Thanks for the kind words! Yeah, Eleven is very expensive (not for a hobby project like this -- but at scale). I think we'll see a lot of commoditization of TTS services in the next 6-12 months - but Eleven seems to be in the lead for

Too funny. I am in the exact same boat. For what it's worth I spoke to their customer service (Chase) yesterday who indicated that the auto-payment would continue to work as it always had, but will process "10 days late". S

I don’t have a dog in the fight and have been a long time NYT subscriber but I concur with Nate on this one. The NYT coverage here has become even worse in the last few hours. It’s truly bizarre. Here is their latest: https://www

Interesting! Both the phenomenon itself, and the fact that there are two totally different explanations in the answers (“yes”, and “no - it’s a coincidence”), and it therefore seems the true answer is “we aren’t sure”.

Strangely, he is the brother of Dana Gioai, who I find to be absolutely lovely and not pretentious. He was the poet laureate of California, and ran the national endowment for the arts and is a pleasure to listen to: https://conve

https://blog.untrod.com It’s been fun to have a couple python data science posts get popular, and to read very old posts and see whether ideas I had in my early 20s were decent or quite silly (a good mix of both!).
