@JonathanYarwood Steep as can be. 12* AoA

@Potent213 We’ve invested a lot of time into this system and the team is really happy where it’s at. The even better news is that we’re not stopping at any of this and are continuing to invest in the space. Player behavior right now is a really fun problem to solve with tech!

Built my June project: BestBag

A free AI tool to help golfers find clubs that fit their game + budget. Also has a club valuator for when you’re staring at a used club wondering if it's a good deal

Try it out, send me weird clubs.

@NMR_XR @Rengle820 Even with that, the best will always rise to the top.

@danrodrigux “Delegate to any sub agents you deem necessary” has been pretty good in codex for doing the same exact thing

@LouStagner As a huge golfer in the tech space, would love to help!

@Rengle820 Automated testing will play a big role, but companies are 10 years behind on automated testing and making that codebase testable requires a rewrite. We’re trying to adopt and move towards more AI coding but when your testing pyramid is inverted, it’s too hard lol.

I post all my monthly projects on LinkedIn and had such an amazing conversation with this person after they downloaded my app. It’s beyond cool to be able to impact even one person this way. I love merging tech with golf and can’t wait to share my next one; It’s a banger.

@Rengle820 A 24 That plays a gts2 apparently

How did we get to the point in golf course design where there are literally no trees off the fairway to penalize a missed fairway…so boring to watch.

[Daniel Young 🫰🏻 @DanimoYoung]

Finally sharing my April project: Cue. Most golf apps fix your swing but once you can strike it, scoring comes down to what’s between your ears. Cue uses LLMs to deliver quick, personalized tips for on the course.

Give it a try next round: https://t.co/htA3coCSMC

@levelsio It’s clearly trainee on engineers over estimating how long work will take to cover their asses ;)

@sairahul1 They’re in different categories running at scale my guy. The hardware requirements to run VibeVoice and Whisper V3 turbo are in different leagues (9b and 800m). VibeVoice also runs other LLMs (Qwen) under the hood for formatting. VV is amazing, but you can’t really compare them.

@Thetimmac Resell em when that pipeline opens up.

[Daniel Young 🫰🏻 @DanimoYoung]

@nbaschez People run into this loop all the time too! Don’t let perfection be the enemy of good and just ship.

[Daniel Young 🫰🏻 @DanimoYoung]

@jxnlco It’s so awesome that you’ve navigated this. Always been in awe of your abilities, even while waiting to take our stats midterms. Looking forward to keeping up with your journey!

[Daniel Young 🫰🏻 @DanimoYoung]

@gchorba I think that’s the next big fad Gene; will force them to happen fast. No dillydallying allowed

[Daniel Young 🫰🏻 @DanimoYoung]

@schrockn What’s the opportunity cost of having your sr and staff engineers review 4k line reviews that these tools spit out?

[Daniel Young 🫰🏻 @DanimoYoung]

@LouStagner I’m curious about vanity indexes for….purposes and I’m curious if you have any data on it. @USGA has the probability of negative score differential, but nothing on positive.
