That's a wonderful video, thanks for sharing

I'm dealing with the same nonsense. I get LLM-generated reviews of my work, documents, and plans which are not grounded in reality or nuance. Regularly have to explain why the AI i…

Observations so far: - "micro" level code is adequate. A new feature typically works as expected, and code is well documented. But macro level everything's wacky: no architectural …

I'm already seeing this in the company I recently joined: 80-90% of code is generated/prompted. Big PRs, very little review or oversight. Absolutely nobody considering long-term ar…

Hi, it appears that the email address you listed on the careers page (hello@) is undeliverable. Is there another way to get in touch?

Your point about orphaned records resonates with me, but for a much simpler (or stupider) "use case". I took a domestic flight earlier this year and foolishly showed my British pas…

I tried launching something similar 15 years ago, admittedly as a noob to both tech and business. Here's hoping you succeed, it's sorely needed!

This is wonderful! I'm working on a large spatial audio art installation for Burning Man this year ( https://oddsockmachine.github.io/ and https://www.instagram.com/oddsockmachine/…

Your writing is very reminiscent of Aldo Leopold's in 'A Sand County Almanac' (which is an equal delight to read)

I think you mean Cunningham's Law...

Also the museum in Alameda CA, which does a good job of walking you through the history of the ban.

I'd love to hear more about your boat!

Might not count as the great plains, but Mark Sheppard's New Forest Farm in Wisconsin is a good demonstration of a similar approach in a different context. https://newforestfarm.us…

SF Bicycle Coalition is suggesting that it's fine: https://twitter.com/sfbike/status/1239658920718643200

If you implement "middle out" grasshopper rubbing, you can triple production

> "enjoy acting sustainably long-term, so they spread that joy and sustainability to others" This sounds great, can't wait to check it out. After taking a Permaculture Design Cours…

Thanks, I'll see if I can try some in person

Do you have a source for any good bone conduction headphones? I have a damaged eardrum that stops me hearing low frequencies. Recently tried a demonstration at SF's Exploratorium w…

Thanks for sharing this, it's great to see your process. I'm working on something vaguely related, a grid-based synth-controller/sequencer with a bunch of i2c shift registers and l…

Without giving away too many spoilers, you might enjoy "The Expanse" books/series

Exposed earth typically emits carbon dioxide. It's not "emit" in the way a breathing mammal would, more that the carbon in the organic material is oxidized at a greater rate becaus…

Also c90adventures - a very low budget but hilarious series of long distance rides.

Samsara - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samsara_(2011_film) A non-narrative film, with stunning visuals. I feel it shows some of the best and worst of humanity, but in a non-pushy …

I was thinking more the first Iron Man movie

This happened to me when it was time to move on from my first real job. A recruiter, who I spoke to briefly and had no interest in moving forward with, contacted my current manager…
