The sad thing is that even if you really wanted to go off the grid, live in a cave, and rediscover the fire, you wouldn’t be allowed to.

This needs more visibility

Yup. A container i slow to rebuild, but at least the most robust. This is my preferred way to share python code when there are system dependencies involved.

It actually is almost as instant as you would expect

I like the pyproject.yaml, but checking dependencies with poetry takes 5 to 10 minutes for my projects.

Tbh, I’m always ending up having issues using poetry and conda. I prefer using penv and pip.

Because I only have 50 messages in 3 hours

No, not yet. But thanks for the tip!

That sounds nice. I’ve been looking at serenade.ai and thought about extending their STT with an option to use another third-party STT engine. I would then like to extend their command engine with LLM command recognition. In my experience, maybe also with my pronunciation as a non-english speaker, their STT and command recognition really doesn’t work that well.

I think both are fine. But when I see 3.5 has difficulties, I usually switch to 4 and get the job done there.

So what are you building? A browser STT interface for chatting with GPT and other LLMs?

I feel that bing chat results are a lot worse than gpt4 tho

True enough. Yes, I would expect them to move towards my expectation once they got to know me better and once they see that I might fit into the team quite nice. At least I believe it more likely than weeding me out based on numbers in the very first call. I too don’t have enough experience to know whether this is realistic. I just know that my current employer would lean into that way of thinking.

But, it seems that many companies can still afford to weed out candidates by numbers, at least here in Germany. So, I just have to do me as long as I have a secure position and otherwise, otherwise.

Congratulations 😄

I often get ask about my salary expectation in the very first 10 minute interview with the HR person, before even getting the chance to talk to the team. Being sincere, I wouldn’t get to follow-up interviews if I told them my expectation that they would definitely see as too high.

How do you deal with that situation?

My anxiety because of merge conflicts stop me from doing so…
