I guess it highly depends on who you ask ;-)

Wow, congratulations, great achievement! You should be proud indeed.
How long did you train for the marathon?

Love the idea of a before and after.

A stock photo of two people doing business on a staircase.

Two dudes standing around a watercooler, presumably having a 'watercooler conversation' about last night's Seinfeld or whatever.

A woman reclining in a chair in a business suit with her shoes off.

A guy in a suit on a city street doing some damn business on a cell phone. The business never stops!!!!!

Today I discovered that people have been uploading old stock photo CD-ROMs to the Internet Archive and now I'm obsessed with the mid-'90s business-core aesthetic.

I feel like it’s a pretty easy concept to grasp. Or am I underestimating something?

“When a main path to financial security comes through the algorithmic gods rather than institutional advancement it fundamentally changes how people view everything from education to social structures to political systems that they’re apart of.” – @kyla.bsky.social

HP to Buy Humane, Maker of the Ai Pin, for $116 Million Humane, which marketed its Ai Pin as the next big thing after smartphones, had raised $240 million from investors, including OpenAI’s Sam Altman. The pin will be discontinued.

thus ends the humane story, a very only-in-silicon valley tale.

ambitious, mysterious, buzzy startup backed by big names, big $$--> splashy, hyped up launch--> fails to deliver on promise, launch flops--> firesale to legacy company, product shut down

Ah good one! Bcrypt is purposely slow/requires more computing power to prevent brute force attacks. The tests might look slow, but it’s actually bcrypt.

Something I've been working on using GenAI: A visualization of how world leaders talk about each other during UN speeches. Select a country on the globe to explore diplomatic relationships and see who's saying what about whom.

Wow! What an awesome idea. Great way to make use of AI. How did you use GenAI for this? I would think this is more Deep Learning sentiment analysis right? So AI, but not generative.

Relatable, good luck, hopefully you’ll find some motivation. Sometimes you got to start. I really like that you started writing to start doing something. I hope it worked!
