I'm not an optimist, just a pessimist who's still proactive: I don't think things are going to get better, but I just can't talk myself into giving up yet.

Start with cringy poem, end with cringy pseudocode. At least it comes naturally.

In my opinion, it's because there's always something more to know, especially in science-related fields.

it'll always be that way, sadly

The scientist's job is to never stop searching. The leader's job is to stop searching and decide. Trouble starts when either forgets the other exists.

wow!! I'm in NC personally 😅

replied to:

I used to go to NC every summer -- had family near Jacksonville. They moved back to the North Country last year. Very pretty state you've got there.

how to use our time properly. i need to improve my productivity.

replied to:

You can do it by beating procrastination. Procrastinators enjoy themselves rather than working at assigned tasks.

replied to:

there are reasons to procrastinate. sometimes you are not ready for a task and it has to ripen on the back of your had. sometimes you don't have structure and are not organised. sometimes you might be overwhelmed by too many tasks.

replied to:

make a schedule and only try to get one or two things done per day. productivity is not about getting more done for the sake of it. it's about getting to what is important for you.

There are many distractions. Much is way too verbose. A calm, quiet and “distraction less” experience suits me better. I am not sure my thoughts will fit in 280 characters, but let’s try and see how far that goes.

I work with c# and distributed systems. Anyone with experience in that domain?

I’m ambivert. When I spend time outdoors and with people I want to keep doing that, I become very extrovert. Can’t code in that mode. It’s hard to switch back to introvert but when that happens time flies really quick. A month can pass and it feels like a week.

Very satisfying taking something that underperforms and slowly pushing it to 60 fps.

Probably because it's very frustrating to be below that.

Watched the Daily Show bit about AI this week, my wife found the interview with the whistleblower guy really depressing. That interview dramatically undersold that all the sketchy hacking shit that's happening right now is coming from 1 company.

Onboarded on Claude Team with Unlimited credit usage. In the first day, subscription limits were hit and then it silently went on spending 530 EUR in credits before I noticed.

replied to:

In a single day? That’s insane. It’s 5 months on the 100$ Codex which is practically unlimited.

replied to:

In a few hours, yes. Token-based pricing is insane.

replied to:

I knew token-based was more expensive but didn’t imagine that much. Which is why u can’t compete making alternative coding agents, their own subscriptions are much cheaper, but why they do it on their own Teams package is weird. Maybe targetting companies they feel they can pay.

…

replied to:

Yes, that's for enterprises, that want SSO, governance, budgeting, data protection, etc etc. For C-level they are interested in "how much do we pay for AI", and with personal subscriptions you can't answer => can't manage it. This 530 EUR is the price for that learning.

So, I'm watching two shows right now - Silo and Attack On Titan. I'm nearing the end of S3 on Silo and have just finished S3 of AOT. The parallels between the two are interesting but the contrasts are more interesting, namely how much more intricate AOT is.
