• Thursday

    • Private work. Lots.
    • And travel. Left for berkshires.
    • Missed ortho, rescheduled next week.
    • Highest spelling bee, something like 42/48 words, >200 pts.
    • Duct-taped the LED at the bottom of the roku tv. Too bright at night. No hardware or software option to disable (that I could find). Remote still works.
  • Wednesday

    • Private work.
    • Cumulative updates.
    • Old leather case ripping. New case. Trying popsocket for the first time.
    • Gitlab changed their interface since last I used it.

      • Did some ticket cleanup, organized into proper milestones after the summer hiatus.
      • Kickoff ticket: https://gitlab.com/bmahlstedt/supercontest/-/issues/202
      • Got the site back up, prepped for 2023-2024 season, backfilled week1. Not quite live yet, but close.
      • Remember to use alembic.op.execute in migrations (not sbsc.db.session?)
      • All details on ticket.
      • Feels good to get back on this app.
  • Tuesday

    • Full day of private work.
    • Tesla’s dojo supercomputer. Trains ML models for FSD. Computer vision, controls. Could sell to other tech computers to use dojo for purposes other than driving.

    • Updated vscode.
  • Monday

    • Private work.
    • TD margin closed with no action on my part (swept vs unswept).

    • Gonna miss broadway week this year, too much going on.
    • Updated airthings firmware.
    • Google/US monopoly trial.
    • iPhone15 tomorrow.
    • Loops of heaps, lots of DP.
    • Registered for Best Friends Animal Society, took quiz.
  • Sunday

    • Private work.
    • Google docs has code blocks for gworkspace users but not for personal accounts.
    • Leetcode’s classification (easy/medium/hard) is not very reliable. I do love graph problems though.
    • UFC 293, US Open, NFL, 9LX, SCC.
    • Powders, mealprep, maintenance, the usual.
    • Past few days: graphs. Today: tries, binary search, bit manipulation. Tomorrow: heaps, DP.
  • Friday

    • Private work.
    • Remember one of my NY senators (Kirsten Gillibrand) is focused on crytpo regulatory frameworks.
    • RecipeUI is postman with type safety: https://recipeui.com/
    • Google drive / slack connection = nice. Can even manage permissions with the click of a button, allowing channel members to view/comment/edit files.
    • You CAN sign into multiple emails on the slack mobile app (like gworkspace apps), and access all workspaces associated with that email.
    • Looked at a few of Eric’s vegan investment opportunities.
    • Andrew Ng on genai and others: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5p248yoa3oE. Supervised learning still the largest market share, and remains the underpinning of genai. Lots of cool companies coming out as applications of ai (rather than hardware or tooling etc – better venture chance for a product in practice that uses AI than AI itself).
    • Fischer random chess started today.
    • Listened to the entire (non-live) DMB discography.
    • Remember in python you can have multiple yield from statements in a generator. It basically expands an iterator, calling for each. Useful for stuff like DFS. Traversing a binary tree (eg yield from node.left and then yield from node.right).
    • Some research into factset and axioma.
    • Updated vscode.
  • Thursday

    • Private work.
    • 95 and sunny, last day of real summer? Madison sq park.

    • Didn’t have time to address sbsc stuff before 2023 season opener. Will fix after TNF, before saturday lockdown.
