  • What is a small thing you did that changed your life in a big way?

  • Left school in Boston. Got a job in Rhode Island. Nine months in and I got bored. Started looking at jobs on Craigslist. Didn't find anything local. Started scrolling down the cities in the right column. Made it alphabetically down to Seattle. Never been.

    Got the job, moved.

    Lived here for 15 years. Bought a house, met my wife. Found a place where I feel like I always belonged.

  • Hypothetical: Humanity is planning a year of shutting off the internet to quell the advance of the AI singularity. You can keep your computer but there will be no networking. What would you do to prep

  • First bikebell against noise-canceling headphones

  • It takes 29 microseconds for sound to travel 1cm. That’s eons in electronics world. The phone you use is probably doing an operation every .0005us or faster.

    Also, that style of headphone is a lot less complicated than ANC headphones. They just have a microphone/speaker pass through and an envelope-follower that detects peaks in the audio wave. If the peak is over a threshold, shut off the speaker. The headphones block the sound just like classic hearing protection.

    They also may potentially benefit from a small buffer, so everything you’re hearing is a little delayed. Gives the circuit more time to react, though I’m not sure that’s necessary.

  • I don't understand, why wouldn't the AI simply write its own version of whatever software it needs to license?

  • Guy randomly stopped me to ask me how I like my Model 3 when I was getting out of it in a parking lot last week. First time that’s happened in like 6 years.

  • There’s a remote job listing on LinkedIn right now for $125/hr to train an AI how to do schematic capture and layout. Like it’s right in the listing that you’re training an AI to do your job. Insanity.

  • AI still doesn't work very well, businesses are faking it, and a reckoning is coming

  • Ask it which is heavier: 20 pounds of gold or 20 feathers.

  • Vibe coding guy wrote unit tests for our embedded project. Of course, the hardware peripherals aren’t available for unit tests on the dev machine/build server, so you sometimes have to write mock versions (like an “adc” function that just returns predetermined values in the format of the real analog-digital converter).

    Claude wrote the tests and mock hardware so well that it forgot to include any actual code from the project. The test cases were just testing the mock hardware.

    What is something society treats as normal that you secretly think is completely insane?

  • I feel like this was common knowledge back in 2016. Is this surprising to anyone?
