Happy New Year! I pulled together a collection of the photos I took this year that I enjoyed the most: idyllmoments.com/blog/my-fav…

You’re in her DMs, I bought her a rice cooker. We are not the same.

This is a great thread… in addition flip this and instead think what about if you lean into being prone to being laid off? How can you use that to your advantage and how would it change your strategy? Instead of risk averse try risk resilient.

This is my third recession in tech, here's my playbook: 1. Cut spending. Put off vacations, auto, and home purchases. Have 12 months of emergency savings. 2. Put in more effort at work to reach the top 25% of performance. 3. Learn more marketable skills with your extra time.

This is big brain energy. I’ve found it’s only worth getting to that top 5-10% if it happens accidentally. When you’re just such a natural fit you’re tripping over success.

Replying to @jbellack
Yeah, that's why I'd cap the efforts to reach top 25%, not top 10%. Definitely diminishing returns to beyond that, especially in a recession. Leaving some energy to skill up, network, and be ready to move.

I’m trying some things out on mastodon. @justbozo@mas.to or @bozo@mathstodon.xyz
Same but twins.

I’ve spent the last 15 minutes trying to try mastodon but can’t get registered on any server for those of you who think this is an alternative.

This is a big deal! One of the biggest barriers to adoption has been a lack of high quality open source solvers. It's also been one of the key differences between ML and OR tools. Is the era of the open source solver finally here?

I have been waiting for someone to go this route.

So I’ve had this Leica Q2 Monochrom for a couple months now I think… and GD if it wasn’t a great buy. I have a ISO 25,000 photo of my daughter in a dimly lit dance class and it looks like ISO 3,200 and sharp as a GD tack. It’s gonna be my Xmas morning camera this year.
I’m happy to trade meeting coworkers at the water cooler for being tackled by toddlers in the hallway.

One *great* thing about working from home is that you don’t have to wait more than 30 seconds between closing your work laptop after a long day and doing the Hokey Pokey with two toddlers.

Some times drawing a data viz that’s complex and requires explanation is itself useful to underscore the complexity of the domain.

1. CRITICAL: Figure out how to reproduce the problem. 2. CRITICAL: You need to know EXACTLY what the code should do. If no one knows… You may not have a bug but a use case and scope creep.

POV: You're in a legacy codebase you've never seen before, written in a language you don't know and you need to fix a bug in this code. You don't know what's causing the bug. Nobody knows. How do you approach this problem?

Still thinking about that time a VC asked me why he should invest in me when he can find 3 Stanford grads to build the same exact thing but better.
I’ve been shopping for a camera to take with me on vacation. I literally bought 8-10 different cameras from 1” sensor point and shoots to the Sony a6600. I wanted something jacket pocket friendly with bokeh, dynamic range, and eye AF. Winner? Canon m200. 🧵

Look up this camera. It’s tiny, sports interchangeable APS-C lenses and has a kill pancake lens 22mm f/2 (roughly 35mm), eye AF, nice dynamic range, shoots raw. It’s an EF-M mount and that’s sort of dead BUT this is priced cheaper than similar fixed lens cameras.

An example sunset photo with the pancake lens. Just a stellar value.
