@parakeetnebula yeah facts. what are we gonna do about it twin

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

me: i'm really tired i should go to sleep

my evil twin that takes over my body and makes bad decisions for me:
let's spend three hours writing an in depth explanation on github of how to change the comm interface and control code for obscure motors

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

s tier experiences include watching sci fi films in imax

@zanehengsperger sadness

@mspringut where do i learn how to do this

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

was using chatgpt api to annotate a dataset SEQUENTIALLY for hours then realized i could just run like 100 threads in parallel and the rest took like 10 min

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

*crying in having to write code by hand for comp sci exams*

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

for christmas i want a tormach

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

at this point i'm going to start copy and pasting code into a google doc

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

github please come back please i desperately need you right now please

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

@PeterDiamandis i'd argue the parallel isn't the same, cars basically all do the same thing but there are thousands of specialized tasks robots can do. even with general purpose/humanoids you'll still have welding robots/car assembly/trash sorting etc.

@Stone_Tao what would you say is the sota for "good data"?

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

the hardest part about fusion360 is trying to remember the filename of a part i made like 5 months ago

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

@KaiFord0 hater alert like half my classes are tandon classes

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

one of the coolest parts of studying engineering/math/physics is feeling like every class that i take is a bit harder than the last one and that i'm getting closer and closer to the frontier of human knowledge

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

@KaiFord0 somebody gets it 💯

top 2 worst food experiences:
1. the small slimy white stuff in scrambled eggs that never seem to cook (what is that?)
2. dates that have mold on the inside

[pedro @pedrooo_c]

me yesterday: 7 hours trying to change the communication interface for two motors, didn't work at all

me today: tried again and did the exact same thing i did yesterday and it worked on the first try in 20 minutes. tf ?????

(at least it worked tho lfg)

why is the goodreads recommendation algorithm so asss they have so much data they should be able to do 1000x better
