Good morning

👋

Quiet afternoon at work yesterday, because of Slack being down

Good Morning! Yes, Slack being down was quite refreshing

Morning 🙂 Must admit, it felt weird working in a remote team without the usual method of chat.

rcfotd:

clojure.core/rsubseq
([sc test key] [sc start-test start-key end-test end-key])
  sc must be a sorted collection, test(s) one of <, <=, > or
  >=. Returns a reverse seq of those entries with keys ek for
  which (test (.. sc comparator (compare ek key)) 0) is true

mâning!

Morning

Morn'

anyone have any views on juxt/tick vs vanilla cljc.java-time? (the interval algebra stuff in tick looks neat, and will let me delete some code, but i'm not exactly sure yet what other things tick adds over cljc.java-time )

Portability maybe?

i guess as somebody that's about to have to rip out a datetime lib in our project cos it's on the verge of rot... i'm a little suspicious of the non native option

but obv i am currently in typescript/js not clj(s) so i know it's apples and oranges

morning

good morning... just

oooh just watched the channel 4 "alternative christmas message"

still in uncanny valley territory

seems like the lighting on her face isn't quite right

Have you watched Sassy Justice on YouTube?

That is really well done

but how much is bias because I know it to be fake

oh, no I have not

It features a certain well known soon-to-be-maybe-yes-maybe-no President of the US of A.

the lighting on his face is always wierd of course

presumably by design

presumably it depends on quantity and topology of neural net nodes

where more is not necessarily better

are there rules of thumb emerging about optimum toplogies for different tasks?

I guess we get to the point where slebs are using the deep fakes for real time blemuish removal

and suddenly noone knows what they really look like anyway

heh, the lack of professional makeup during the pandemic is noticeable

I guess deep fake makeup artistry is not yet a widespread thing

that Michael Caine somehow looks like the G man from an ingame "Half Life" cut scene

I agree the Trump is really good though

Julie Andrews is good too

The scarey thing is, that is now. Give it another 2-3, 5 years and it'll be perfect

true dat

although I'd rather they spent that computation budget on figuring out nuclear fusion...

climate crisis what now

much more important to spend money on serving ads and propping up late stage capitalism than saving the planet ofc
