Can anyone recommend a book or other resource for a lay person to understand this?

Have you looked at Continue.dev? It’s open source and allows both local/open source and commercial models. It’s definitely got challenges / bugs (particularly for remote dev) but I think is worth a look.

Why are all the `y`s missing from the text in Chrome but not in Safari?

Partials: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_series_(music)#Part...

Still curious about the others.

This is really interesting to me but there’s a few things here that are beyond my reach. Could anyone describe these in more detail or point to references?

* partials? Is that another word for harmonics?

* “Box tone”?

* Breakpoint synthesis? ChatGPT suggests this is a kind of interpolation but I don’t quite get it.

Any general references would be really appreciated. Thank you!

Oura ring?

Totally agree! If you're in Portland, join us for Papers We Love in person!

https://www.meetup.com/papers-we-love-pdx

Next meetup is Weds 10 May. We've been reading data-oriented papers recently (CRDTs/AutoMerge, Delta Lake, C-Store, etc) but we'll likely do some of these papers soon. Hope you can join us.

Yes. Very often the email never gets sent — because I find the solution while writing it.

Does anyone have a good reference on how barriers of various “strengths” are actually implemented on several modern hardware platforms?

I’ve replaced Dark Sky with Windy but, although Windy is quite good, it doesn’t answer the same questions that Dark Sky answered quickly (and the article does a good job of pointing out these questions).

I'm a hands-on software engineering leader with over 20 years experience who is passionate about creating powerful and usable software that betters the human condition.

I've jump-started multiple teams and products using the right mix of strategy, technology, and talent. I've worked with founders, product, and UX to refine their vision and establish a technology culture and architecture that delivered immediate value while preserving options for the future. Having implemented multiple early products with my own hands, I have also enjoyed incrementally evolving existing platforms and processes to be more impactful.

Check out my resume and website for details of the products I've helped launch, but they include a cancer patient / clinical-trial support app (as head of engineering) and patient- and provider-facing digital workflow tools including insurance pricing estimates (cited as a key asset in the $375M acquisition of a genetic testing company).

I'm seeking a leadership role such as founding engineer or head of engineering at an early stage company. I'd prefer a full time role but would consider consulting arrangements for salary and equity. I care deeply about and will work hard to grow both your product and the team that builds it.

Does istat menus not show this? Is it just not detailed enough? I guess some stuff like backups show up under “kernel”…

This worked really well for me. Example search “snowman with hair dryer” found this cartoon (which I have locally on my phone). It wasn’t the first hit but was in the top 5 or so.

Nice work!

If you’re into e-paper check out this board based on ESP32-S3 from Lily Go. They also have a touch screen for it.

I have a personal rule that in order to get a tip you must do something (anything really) that is not simply giving or dispensing me an object that I paid for otherwise. If someone cooked or baked it or brewed it or pulled a shot or whatever great I’ll leave a tip. If it’s just handing me something or pouring into an cup and taking my money I have no problem hitting no tip.

I recommend “Weather Predicting Simplified.”

I'm a hands-on software engineering leader and manager with over 20 years experience who is passionate about creating powerful and usable software that betters the human condition.

I love jump-starting teams and products using the right mix of technology and strategy. I also enjoy incrementally evolving existing platforms to have higher value and be more impactful. I work with co-founders to refine product vision and establish the right technology team and architecture, and also implement a substantial portion of the early product with my own hands.

I'm looking for a foundational, hands-on, engineering leadership role, preferably at an earlier stage company, or in a highly entrepreneurial team inside a larger organization. I'd prefer a full time role but would consider various consulting arrangements for salary and equity.

Check out my resume and website for details of the products I've helped create, but they run the gamut from cancer patient support health tech and genetic testing insurance billing to defense intelligence analyst notebook to proteomics lab science and algorithm development.

If you have an idea for a product or service that can truly benefit people, but need help getting it off the ground, please get in touch.

I really love the concept and execution of spintronics.

However, having just gotten the two part kickstarter edition, it feels like they left out the … fun? The puzzles feel more like academic exercises than the joy that you get from even simple breadboard circuits that do stuff with lights, motors, speakers etc. I think maybe it needs a few more “output” parts to make the experience engaging.

Spintronics feels like a great teaching tool but not a great game.

Curious how others are digging it though.

This sounds like a really cool interactive demo/tutorial. :)

His book Do No Harm is fantastic. Highly recommend.

There's something truly magical to me about a self-sufficient "world" you can understand and hold in your head and hand. Where does my water come from? It comes from the rain and these tanks. Where is the power generated? On those solar panels and these batteries. I know the limits of this world; I work with them, not in spite of them.

Having ocean sailed a tiny bit myself, I have such respect for the hundred rabbits crew. Not all of the choices they made are ones I would, but they're respectable and defensible. Moreover, they're explained plainly without judgement: these are their choices and are offered only in the hope they will be useful. And with a playful and vivid tone that is a joy to read.

I dream of a life like this and feel privileged to be able to share in theirs vicariously.

Newton OS used to do exactly this and it worked really well. You could enable multiple clip boards via and extension.
