I've used Copilot and chatGPT to help with algorithms where I'm unsure where to start. Actual case: "Write a performant algorithm to find the number of work days given a future dat…

My wife is a clinical pharmacist (rounds with medical doctors and provides detailed patient analysis of their drug needs). This article blew her mind.

I started on a Commodore 64 in 1983. I share your opinions. I think it's hilarious how much I am paid by companies to write their crapware.

Walked away from 20 years of software development last year. I've been day and swing trading stocks for last 2 years. I'm now trading full time and doing great. I don't miss the da…

I'd say this.

I "pay myself first". I get up early and get at least 1 hour in on my side project. Sometimes I wake up earlier and so be it - 2 hours some days. I also make sure I know the very n…

"...vision less beast filled with feature requests from strangers..." Yikes, I'm near launching my little monster. I don't want to feed that little guy too many feature requests. I…

I rode it to the bottom and sold. Bad timing for me I guess. Luckily only 2% of my holdings.

A great question. I'm partially-grizzled (only 20 years experience) and looking for the same thing. Some sort of Principle Software Engineer with technical focus and no direct peop…

3 months? I've been trying to make it work for 18 years.

The crazy thing is...I've seen a high altitude weather balloon above my house. Very easy to identify. Now, the other thing I saw above my house at a different time...that is the th…

I mentally added everything you said with "...for now."

"Miracle" man month. Awesome.

This was a well-timed post. Thank you. My wife's father (my father-in-law) passed away just 2 days ago at 75 years old with severe dementia due to a series of mini-strokes in his b…

I'm interested. Tired of giving 5 days of work for 2 days of (hopefully) non-work.

Kettlebells. $3.00 USD per pound, but it was worth it.

I've done well during the Covid crisis buying Fastenal FAST and Grainer GWW. Each time they dipped I bought, and will continue to do this. They are not the cool kids tech companies…

Clearly swamp gas or ball lightning. Move along, people.

Build something, from nothing, and make sure it involves a full stack and has users other than yourself...even if it is just one other person. Promise your future self that you wil…

That flip at the end was fun to watch. Getting 15 stories of rocket back to vertical like it ain't no thing. An engine was out earlier in the flight (intentional or not?), so I won…

As an "armchair manufacturing engineer", why would they want to buy manufacturing capacity? I would think the effort to (a) install Tesla machines/people in existing rectangle buil…

Wow, the S.S. Kresge Christmas Background Music. Pure gold. I can almost remember following my mom through the K-Mart aisles...
