I run drawcharts[1], which is a tool to help you build good looking hand-drawn style charts. It is not very expensive so I am currently making around 500 a year from it.
Also, as someone who likes to go to conferences and meet and connect with people, I found it hard connecting to 50 people at a conference on Linkedin and then reaching back out to them.
So I build LinkedMemo[2] which is a CRM on "top" of Linkedin. You scan a profile, the profile is automatically saved and enriched in the CRM with a quick note.
What they do is ask the visitor from which company they come from.
Behind the scenes, this is what I imagine happens:
- Kenobi scrapes that website and understands what it does
- Has some prompts to transform the text in your website through the lens of your user: eg "Transform this text [your website text here] to appeal to a visitor from this company that does the following [scraped content here]"
Of course internally it might be much more complex than this but this is how I would do this if I had to build it.
I am part of the second group.
Wouldn't even call it anxiety, but just some sort of "light disgust" feeling.
Ok I guess it's cool, but you can't do anything useful with it. You can't even draw something meaningful with it like the domain says.
I totally understand the pseudo-autistic disgust/anger at inaccurate statements. I imagine a lot of us programmers are very sensitive to them in a discipline where small inaccuracies can have big consequences and I myself am easily irked by this type of thing.
However, sometimes the inaccuracy stems from poor communication (or deliberate lying) on behalf of the communicator, but sometimes it comes from gaps in our own understanding or perspective.
Is this just a silly, shallow little thing, or have you fundamentally missed some key point?
I don't have the answer, but I think that's one of the fun parts of engaging with anyone's random creative output like this. There's always a small chance it could teach us something we didn't know before.
E.g. it made me re-evaluate what "drawing" really is. Especially in a digital context.
Is it a question of fidelity? At what point does altering individual elements (whether pixels on a screen or icons in a grid) in order to represent a larger picture become "drawing". i.e. if the pictures were much smaller and closer together would it feel like drawing?
Is it a question of uniformity of media? i.e. would this feel more like drawing if instead of pictures it was just coloured blocks?
Yep if you have a good therapist they’ll help you learn and recognize to try and ignore that feeling in certain contexts like this! Of course it’s super nuanced person to person.
The author compiled the Python interpreter as an Actually Portable Executable (APE) file.
APE files (usually using a `.com` extension) are single executable files that can be run natively on many major operating systems. Kind of a "polyglot" executable file that most major operating systems just understand natively.
The implication is that you can now package Python code as a single file that can be directly run regardless of the operating system the user is on. No installers, no dependencies on what must already be installed, no separate downloads for different operating systems. Just one single file, click and run.
I think what is happening here is that the python interpreter can be used as an executable. This way you don't have to install python on the host machine and can carry your programs on a USB stick for example.
Python is not slow enough. You can now give people a collection of bits that will run python even slower on multiple architectures. As a bonus, you cannot use any of the C packages like numpy or pandas that might cause it to run faster.
