Oh, sure. You might be getting ahead of yourself with worrying about that at this stage, but maybe eventually.

Just focus this on your personal brand.

You can still relate it to concerns/business requirements or processes that agencies might have, which you considered and factored in when you made design decisions about the code, architecture, or processes. But since this is more of a project that you built on your own and one that you own, it makes more sense to me that you'd present this as "I changed X on Y because 123" and so on.

You could open source it and continue to work on it as a side project and main thing in your portfolio to demonstrate your skills.

And over time you could even offer a hosted/paid SaaS option, if there seems be interest in that and you have more time and resources available to sustain that.

From the perspective that you'd refine this project over time (as you already have), I don't think you should worry too much about how the code and architecture look and are right now or people's reactions to their current state. It'll grow, change, and improve as you do. And others' reactions can help you grow.

> I spent the last 6 months rewriting the architecture for multi-tenancy, overhauling the UI/UX, and adding productivity and compliance algorithms.

Separately, I think it could be really good for you and your career to document somewhere online (even just a blog) some of your thinking/decisions regarding these spaces. And it doesn't need to be too formal, just lay out your thinking.

Your post here is pretty great as an example of your communication skills - which I've heard are highly appreciated/valued in CS -, so you've got the skills, and it'd be great for you to have more public proof of that.

I've suspected that, too, while looking at DAWs and how people make music with them. It seems a bit boring to me.

To kinda get away from that or even just experiment, I was interested in the possibility of writing music with code and either inject randomness in places or at least vary the intervals between beats/etc using some other functions (which would again just be layering in patterns, but in a more subtle way).

> Just as a simple example, I have a once-in-a-while newsletter+blog on a niche topic, and I could get way more eyeballs if I'd just rephrase things as a Reddit post, but I'm nostalgic about it living its own life on the Free-ish Web. Or, I suppose, this comment right here, which could just as well be on a personal blog with a "backlink" to yours.

I've been thinking lately about still posting things to various places like here and Reddit but compiling them later on and posting them to my website (likely with a link to where I posted them originally). That seems like a good middle ground for me and would enable me to build up a decent resource for myself and others, if I'm up for cleaning up the texts to provide or remove context as necessary.

Much of this idea of mine is from a desire to archive and pull together more of the stuff I've put effort into that's spread all over the web.

May I ask what techniques either you're using or would recommend for similarity clustering? I looked into topic modeling, but it seemed a long way off from reliably bundling together stories like on Techmeme.

(I'm working on basic blog and video aggregators like Planet Python.)

Does anyone know of a place where I could buy one?

It'd be fun to join in from afar by pledging to do the same things, but for nowhere near the cost. (The place looks super neat, but I'm not paying that much, don't live near there, and need to report to my employer's office twice a week.)

I wonder if there'll be an aggregator of the blog posts written as post of this cohort (and others, if there's more cohorts).

I'm amazed to learn that we hadn't had video like this before, but it had to come about sometime!

For others curious to see how it works/is used:

- A video tutorial (unofficial source): https://youtu.be/9-ttkNfVqgk?si=Xz0D_nV3Jt6fVUKO

Regarding IDE support, you might be interested in this VS Code extension: https://github.com/keanemind/jjk I found it today and like it quite a bit.

The Visual JJ extension (https://www.visualjj.com) is also good, but JjK feels more integrated to me.

This is great! I can only imagine how strange it would look to observe someone reading an article this way, but it's a great idea!

I'm not the market for it, but I think it's pretty funny. Maybe post it to some relevant subreddits? Regarding the name and logo emoji, I was expecting it to be trying to find similarly looking butts.

You could likely make some money by linking to properties associated with each star. I was surprised that the listings that I saw didn't have links or photos.

Ooh it's on Pikapods, too! I'll give it a try. :)

Somewhat similarly, I've started recording myself talking about various things and then using a speech to text program to transcribe it for me. It just helps me get my thoughts out a bit more fluidly than if I waited for when I can write them down (which then carries with it a temptation to edit as I record).

I'll later on clean up the thoughts, though, not just serve them unedited in some way unless it was a really clean take on a topic - trying to be respectful of the audience's time.

I do think you're onto something, though, with the idea about using screen recordings as a means of capturing your reactions and thoughts regarding some matter that can be shown visually. I think I'll be doing that soon, but with some editing to the video.

This video goes through a bunch of examples of the streamer and YouTuber Hasan Piker doing a bunch of propaganda for terrorist groups.

Around the last third of the video, it also goes into examples of Twitch seemingly favoring him and other propaganda spreaders on the Twitch platform while denying access to Israelis for some reason.

It seems like this is mostly aggregating a feed of links. And that is helpful, but I think it'll be even more helpful/valuable when the links can be curated in some way that gives an added sense of context, priority or importance. Without this, it'd likely be a pretty random mix of content, unless the collaborators all stick to a well defined topic.

/s ???

Interesting story! From the title, though, I thought it'd go into how the plague somehow led to the literal preservation of records of Jesus's birth.

Very cool idea. Any one know of a self-hosted solution?

Yeah! I'm very interested in using one of these as a computer monitor replacement.

Wild that there's no discussion about finding whoever might've shot at the plane's cockpit.

> It's kind of like with gyms: what you get is what the market wants, and since the market doesn't know much, you get gyms full of useless exercise machines, because that's what people think a good gym should have.

I'm curious: what should a good gym have?

I'm interested! It's likely there's also interested people in the University of Bayes discord: https://discord.gg/eREs7buM

What's your reasoning for #1?

I like this idea! It relates well to things I've been calling "pride assets", things that I can return to time and again to remind myself of things that I've done or thought that make me feel proud or happy with myself, often to inspire me again with visions of my ideal self when I'd strayed away from it/been too caught up in other people's BS.

Yeah, is anyone familiar with other DSLs for form/survey building and logic?

For my work, where we produce lots of surveys and reuse parts of them/run near duplicates monthly, I've been curious to see if there's any dual code and GUI options out there to allow for survey programming to be version controlled and forked, etc.
