Super fun that you have more worker nodes than websites lol Neat to see Docker Swarm in use. Don’t hear much about it since K8s took over.

I’ve found it empowering to say “this is fascinating to me, and I would enjoy spending significant time diving into it, but I choose not to prioritize that right now.” This works much better for me than simply griping that “I don’t have tim

Heh and farming, even subsistence farming, is at the mercy of weather/climate, animal migration patterns, human labor and thus health… Nobody has perfect knowledge of their world. All we have are heuristics that work well enough to get

My only gripe with Overcast is that it relies on Apple’s podcast index. I prefer the open alternative https://podcastindex.org/

Three options. First, see if you can get your friends to engage with a one-shot that you DM. You can knock it out in an afternoon and they’ll get a feel for it. Second, find a local hobby store and see if they host a group you could join. M

This bears passing resemblance to Aurae [0]. Both projects are trying to reimagine the space between the Linux kernel and the cluster using modern languages for improved safety. Beyond that, I can’t confidently compare and contrast the proj

What’s the problem with the AirPods? Too much pre-processing?

References this paper on Time Series transformers. First I’ve seen someone apply transformers to time series specifically. Very curious how well this might work for low-frequency events. https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.02592

My thought exactly. Some university should build a wing sail ship using exclusively materials and tools available during the Golden age of sail.

I think it actually runs the other way. Because Physics is in the doldrums, intelligent people trained in Physics show themselves out and start building those advertising systems. Personally I know many people who abandoned Physics to reinv

Would you consider it “pure Python” if it targeted a WASM runtime for the browser side component?

Dropbase looks neat. Couple questions based on my read of the site/github/docs: - is the architecture exclusively hybrid SaaS? Looks like I host a worker node but a cloud connection is still required. - how can I monitor the data

From the outside, this seems to rhyme with epicycles. You’re missing a core concept, so you pile on complexity to paper over the failed predictions. The industrial organization failure is understandable. It’s all well and good to say “they

I appreciate Endel for this reason. When you want something predictable, but in a particular vibe, algorithmic music nails it. https://endel.io/

It’s tricky to balance Doing Stuff and Broadcasting Stuff. You need both. If you spend 100% of your time heads down, even delivering huge value, nobody will notice and your career will suffer. If you spend 100% of your time bloviating, you

Read it on iOS Safari, without reader mode. Worked great. Only thing that annoyed me is that there are very lengthy appendices. Thus the scroll bar suggests the main article is much longer than it actually is.

Excel is getting Python “embedded” soon. Might make some of this easier.

Thanks for calling this out. I think the dev cycle for production AI Systems will involve a lot of bug squashing on this kind of thing. These models handle a huge variety of inputs; by definition much more than you could hand code. It’s har

Disagree. Explain folders. Lots of people have only experienced computing through mobile and tablet devices that try to hide the file system. They need to be taught the concept of a file. File types. Folders. Permissions. Drives. File trans

Glanced through the table of contents, this is a treasure. It’s distilled digital acumen. Will contemplate how to use it as a curriculum for my school age children.

We have both available as a result of independent & simultaneous innovation/20%/side project things. I’m biased because I own the Kagi side, but have thought about this a bit. SearX has some advantages. It’s free, except for t

Ugh I can’t wait for Apple to roll out Siri II, re-baselined with contemporary LLM tech. So much of Siri’s architecture is exactly what I want… it’s just too dumb.

I also spun up a Kagi account for work. The current Teams product is fine, but hasn’t been a priority for the team and lacks features available in the Ultimate plan. I’ve wound up moving folks over to individual Ultimate accounts. They’re w

That would be pretty great. Even better - a movie widget that integrates IMDB and JustWatch. JustWatch tells you where you can actually stream/buy/rent a movie… I find it very helpful for dealing with ever-changing streaming catal

Do you find that works better than using Thangs directly? It’s a meta-search engine itself.

I’d love to try this - you should write up the project!
