Andrew McNutt

One of the coolest conferences in the world, https://diymethods.net/, is back this year! It's a zine only conference (ie no attendance, only zines in the mail), dang so cool

had a snap in my brain and now i can only pronounce milestone the same way you pronounce minestrone

as the grade begging era begins again, I am once again missing my undergrad, where it was a kind of a faux pas to know your grades at all

would it be possible to become antiverified? like for a platform to indicate that it is less sure that I am who i claim i am than other people?

stuck on the idea of a pretentious dude lit book where the only contents in the "main" part of the book is a title, which leads to a maze of footnote and end notes

A silly milestone: I recently submitted my 100th academic thing that generated academic reviews. 10% of which were in the last month! I am very tired!

By my count I've caused >325 reviews and completed about 150 reviews. So not too bad a review debt

Feel like it’s time to give up on using Greek letters to name ai or web components or whatever. Out with λ architecture in with 💅-oriented systems. ϵ.ai is gone, 🙏ly is HERE

@kf@666.glitchwit.ch haha i was thinking more for like academic reviews, but i definitely remember a time when i was an overconfident young engineer and left some long pointless and unhelpful reviews for which I thought i'd killed it

i dunno seems a little steep

the rising prominence of openclaw is obviously somewhat worrying, but at least its logo bucks the trend of AI logos looking like buttholes—so at least there's that

Was just talking about this in my class the other day, nice to bump into randomly on social media

tired: et al.
wired: and friends
hired: et am(icis)

there's nothing like the zeal of greatly improving a spreadsheet through sheer cleverness, nor the existential defeat of discovering a week later that said cleverness broke it in a range of significant ways

A colleague (Alex Lex) is hiring a software engineer to work on revisit with us! In scenic Graz Austria! It’s a cool team and, I think, a rad opportunity

sometimes computers seem innocuous, other times i get something like dysmorphia because my latex inline comment color is wrong

woke from a dream drenched in sweat with the words "liquid glass is new coking us" ringing through my mind

trying to imagine how much i would pay per paper to put something on arxiv, with the assurance that it'll be there for some huge amount of time (say 50 years).

In this moment, I'd gladly pay 1$ per paper, maybe begrudgingly pay 20$ for the not weird ones, and would not pay 50$ (of my own money)
