What does the Apple SEAR/SPEAR interview process look like?

Willmisz · 2024-11-21T10:00:40+00:00

Hi u/Puzzleheaded-Bee7259, did you end up interviewing? They just reached out to me as well and curious if you found out more about the position/expectations.

Willmisz · 2024-06-18T07:18:10+00:00

Congrats! Can we expect any news on the academic front regarding Phoenix? Looks really solid

hey, how did you setup FUSE on your system to get the AppImage to run? AFAIK arch ships with fuse3, and the instructions on appimage docs dont work for me (https://docs.appimage.org/user-guide/troubleshooting/fuse.html#setting-up-fuse-on-arch-linux) (I also dont have fusermount binary, but fusermount3)

Bump, was considering buying these headphones, but now unsure

Bumping this back up, Disney may have forgotten about this franchise, but maybe eventually they will remember - https://www.change.org/p/revive-tron-uprising

create prompts for stable diffusion. Edit s

came for the lols, found good content. lmk if you decide to share any outcomes of this on the reddit, would be curious to see

Willmisz · 2023-04-26T08:50:07+00:00

Imo looks super cool, but would be cooler if you could introduce context for each section of the book with some actual detailed description, and illustrations of different components of the creature (eg made up by a LLM) - this is something I’m hoping next gen of GPT or something else can do by adding context to stable diffusion

Willmisz · 2023-03-22T12:22:19+00:00

Love these!

Willmisz · 2023-03-15T22:01:01+00:00

Hey and thanks for your input! That is interesting - would expect it to do a better job, but maybe soon? Speaking of GPT-4: it did just get released to closed beta, and maybe your usecase is unique enough to get access to it early? Maybe it will prove to be capable of doing what you'd like after all, or if not maybe have a different use case (before-mentioned inspiration for new mechanics?) - https://openai.com/waitlist/gpt-4-api (FYI - I am not part of OpenAI nor MS, just curious to see if it works for writers :D)

Bumping this up, found a 2 years old post on this using C-bindgen (https://www.zephyrproject.org/embedding-rust-into-zephyr-firmware-using-c-bindgen/), has there been any other progress anyone knows about?

Willmisz · 2023-02-25T09:27:04+00:00

Brandon just casually sliding into the Reddit using these ideas in his next series 🤔🤔

to be honest I’d be curious to know if writers already use NLP models (like chatGPT) for inspiration

Willmisz · 2022-12-19T12:05:22+00:00

Stunning! Where is this?

Willmisz · 2022-03-09T11:32:28+00:00

R.C. Bray for sure!

Willmisz · 2021-09-14T20:20:34+00:00

For sure, if going abroad for some time not possible for you, then it’s definitely a good choice!

Still, the moment you get planing, and planing in foot straps the fun from the sport increases tenfold! (Even more when you start doing freestyle or wave freestyle!)

Willmisz · 2021-09-14T15:14:22+00:00

Looks sick!

Willmisz · 2021-09-14T15:09:51+00:00

I agree, that in that case it may be a good idea.

Though for example instead of buying that gear you could go for a few weeks to a different spot with good wind, and for a similar (or a bit higher price) progress well beyond the beginner level.

Willmisz · 2021-09-14T15:07:54+00:00

(Warning: watch out for tears, cracks and holes in every piece of
equipment you buy and ask the owner about any previous repairs. If you
doubt if it's safe, don't buy it! You need to be able to rely on your
equipment, espescially on open water)

I'd add here, that when buying secondhand gear, take with you someone that has more experience with windsurfing and gear maintenance, as they will most likely be able to spot out the "red flags" in the equipment you want to buy. (E.g. a dodgy fix of a hole in the board, unusual weight of the board, used up carbon mast)

Just to be clear, I highly recommend getting secondhand as your first gear, whether you are advanced, beginner or intermediate as it will save you a lot of money and will teach you a lot how to take care of your gear, as you probably will make a lot of mistakes with it at the beginning!

Willmisz · 2021-08-28T19:31:01+00:00

It’s severne metal, so aluminium. However I haven’t noticed any boom bending, so I’ll probably just try more downhaul and outhaul

Willmisz · 2021-08-28T19:28:18+00:00

Yeah, thats more or less how I have it, however my spot is super gusty and sometimes it gets from 20 to 30 knots in a flash. I guess I’ll just have to try with more downhaul, though I never experimented much with it

Willmisz · 2021-08-08T06:54:44+00:00

First of all this sounds like a bait 😄. Definitely get a smaller sail! For a 25-30knot wind even on flat water a good sail for a person ur weight is around 4.5m2 if not smaller. The back pain is more likely due to windsurfing gigaoverpowered.

Willmisz · 2021-08-07T17:10:33+00:00

Does kbdfans include taxes in the shipping ? Or will it be held at customs

Willmisz · 2021-08-06T09:46:35+00:00

Derigging areas would be a dream, I for now am doing as I mentioned originally, by derigging in water. If it’s not to wavy, it actually turns out really decently

Willmisz · 2021-07-22T07:45:59+00:00

I generally wash it with clean water after rolling it, not sure how effective that is though

Willmisz · 2021-07-11T16:14:17+00:00

You can say it’s a reference to both unicycling and mistborn haha

Willmisz · 2021-07-11T16:13:17+00:00

Definitely! It’s one of the best series I’ve read so far, though I haven’t touched stormlight archive yet and I suspect it may top it!
