@eigenrobot it depends on the university. Canada, u of t, waterloo, even my lesser known carleton university churns out killers w/ americans, kids from austin, udub, milwaukee, have really impressed me. and then when im active on x, a lot of these kids are hardware engineers too
I was going to joke about this protest, until I searched Twitter and found out a BofA associate just died after working four consecutive 120-hour weeks. The guy is apparently former military, with a wife and kid. Life is too precious for this shit. Rest in peace, brother.

@mipsytipsy @wendynather ... structuring my workday. In the first company, I split my days half-and-half, making no effort at reaching focus during the first half and just dealing with all the short tasks / interactions, then leaving the office after lunch with the team to do high-focus tasks.
@mipsytipsy I am not diagnosed with ADHD, but my experience is very similar in terms of hyperfocus. An analogy that IIRC I read on @wendynather's Twitter stream helped me a lot: Finding focus is like riding a bike up a steep hill. If you lose momentum on the ascent enough to dismount, ...
@mipsytipsy @wendynather ... you have to pretty much start over, and there's only so many attempts you have per day. Once up the hill, I can stay in focus for a long time, unless something forces me to come down. Having been in the positions of CEO, SWE-formally-but-middle-manager-informally, and ...
@ZyMazza I'm hoping the video recording is not too revealing.

@DRichardHipp @gorilla0513 I wrote bernsteinbear.com/assets/img/cs7… for a databases course final paper and it talks a lot about SQLite and its bytecode as a means of introducing compiler optimizations to a databases audience. I am curious what you think about it, if you have time and interest in reading it. Cheers!
@gorilla0513 Turns out, there are advantages and disadvantages to using byte-code rather than just walking the AST. I think the advantages are more important than the disadvantages for a system like SQLite. I didn't know this when I first wrote, SQLite - I just got lucky.
@gorilla0513 When I first wrote SQLite, I didn't know much about SQL database engines. But I was familiar with compilers. So it was natural for me to treat the problem of writing an SQL database engine as a compiler-construction problem. Hence, SQLite compiles SQL into byte-code.

kinda crazy how much money my family (my mom, then me) has made off Programming Databases really Well and Making Them Talk To Eachother. It's literally been 40 years. I should change my last name to database
databases were as much of a leap forward as GPT4 level LLMs are
