I'm a Melbourne-based software dev with 9 years of experience. I've worked all over the stack: on backend, frontend, DevOps and scientific computing. I'm looking to work with an organised, productive team to ship great software. I love coding and getting things done. Interested in working remote with US-based teams on the west coast.
Read https://mattsegal.dev/devops-academic-research.html and other posts to learn about how I like to work and think.

a school is an institution that teaches people
your definition of "actually a school" seems to arbitrarily include a lot of reporting and paperwork and commerce that have nothing to do with the bit where you teach people stuff

you're conflating "not having an overwhelming negative reaction to it" with "never feel anything about it"
you can know something is bad and act accordingly without having a disordered and painful relationship with it

On this topic I really enjoyed reading "Autism as a disorder of dimensionality"

I'm just a casual reader I can't vouch for the veracity of the content, but I found it very interesting

I might be wrong about this but doesn't ollama do some work to ensure the model runs efficiently given your hardware? Like choosing between how much gpu memory to consume so you don't oom. Does llama.cpp do that for you with zero config?

I've been using this for the last few weeks and it's been a lot of fun, both for work and just screwing around.
Curious if there are any other tiny jobs or workflows people have been using LLMs for (how do I do this bash command, check my diff, generate a commit message, please explain clipboard text) that I could add in
