Plastic is far and away the best material for phones, but high end go glass and metal to feel more premium

He's 7 weeks, pretty close to yours :)

what's up

The most important reason to learn some statistics is to defend your tribe from enemy statisticians

F :x

I never genre-matched you to postrat tho, not enough egregore-posting

postrats are mops iff they weren't rats first

Giving feedback on a PDD: "You realize none of this will be true by the time you get to launch, right?"

OSS generative AI is having tons of fun, but pity the poor productizers trying to bring each new capability to market in the 2 month window between it being novel and obsolete

Worked through it and... approx ~0.

Help someone presented a sensitivity analysis to argue it was unlikely that their results were all due to confounding and I'm not sure how much evidence to give to it

I've met these guys, they're great

Being anon never sat well with me. I mostly stayed anon because all my discord friends are.

Except the godofskys, bless em

Timo Milne!

He said yes! He has worked with them, and apparently my dad went to a Port Blakely forestry conference a week or so ago

I'll ask!

I'm not sure which company, but its unlikely. He works alone measuring the tree growth so they can count the carbon credits.

My brother is right now working in forestry near Christchurch :)

Didn't grow up here. I moved in ~8 years ago from New Zealand. NZ is kinda similar to the PNW though!

I'm in Kirkland

it was a fantastic way to grow up, kinda sad that I don't know how to give my kids the same without becoming a remote worker or not working in bigtech (I love working in bigtech)

When we weren't on the farm we lived on a (rather rickety) yacht, and sailed around NZ and Australia

Which bit aha

If its my upbringing it's probably weirder than you expect. My dad kind of gradually built up our farm from nothing in the forest. I still remember washing clothes by hand, going into the forest for bathroom, etc.

Grew up off-grid, farming in rural New Zealand

Discovered a love of programming that took me the US, where mostly I've worked on data visualization for Microsoft Excel, and now analytics platforms in Google Cloud.

Love hiking, gardening.

I've read most everything by Scott A, Moldbug, Yud, etc.

One of the relatives is the drummer~

🎶But if I post all day on the Blue Sky Mine
There'll be likes on the table tonight
Still, I scroll up and down on the Blue Sky Mine
There'll be follows in your pocket tonight🎶

Where do I find this

Wait what I'm PNW too

Why are we all here, why now

I moved to the USA and it just started piling up around me

My little one is determined to never experience it. He falls asleep instantly when I zip up his outdoors onesie
