Failed at trying an e-commerce SaaS (Fatsell), co-founder of a design studio (Ljudje d.o.o.), contributed to a number of local creative industry initiatives, did engineering and product at Joan (https://getjoan.com) and Radical Motion (https://radicalmotion.com). Exhibited art at ARS Electronica and Cukrarna. Whatever.

    There's very little in the article about "how" sound reshapes "networks" in the brain. It's pretty reasonable to expect that hearing different sounds can cause different neurons to…

    Cool. Redis in front of Postgres always brought peace-of-mind that will likely be welcome for the vector data use-case. P.s.: Appreciate the llm command line tool.
