Director of The Haskell Foundation, former lecturer UMD CS. Jazz, music theory, compilers, privacy and aviation, sometimes I combine them. I can also be found @jmct@types.pl I miss Yorkshire

Like all modern people, I view all happenings through my particular political lens. Which is why I need the Knicks to win, because the NBA finals is urbanism versus suburban sprawl

I’ve had too much of too much and want to switch to a just right amount of too much in my life. The problem is that we are all trying to avoid too little of just right and we overcompensate.

Some of you may think this account is about programming, but in reality it’s about obsessing over real small details (sometimes to the detriment of my life at large). Don’t get it twisted, programming is but one view into this. Coffee, jazz, and aviation are the others.

I’m in the group chat, where we share every coffee we make with each other. Pretty much my main reason for getting out of bed these days. I was asked to demonstrate a slowsetta, so here’s what that looks like.

AI can read scientific papers for me? Oh man, imagine all the time I’ll save! Can it watch movies for me too?! I’m so excited for it to write a story I can read to my nephew! Maybe next it’ll write the eulogy I need for my friend’s funeral!
