Even the fish from Amsterdam are trying to get to the Culture Boat.

He calls it "almost as bs as fiat". I think this is more about throwing shade on fiat.

This is a great point. Reading code is such an important skill and how most of an engineers time will be spent. The ability to reason about code that was written by someone else (including your past self) and update/expand it in a clean/maintainable way is a better indicator of success IMO then writing a little chunk of code that solves a brain teaser.

Read code, explain what it does and discuss how you would expand it to add additional functionality or fix a bug. I feel that would be a better approach than most of the current leetcode style interviews.

This looks great! How much data (clips/pitches) did you train your model on?

Yeah, 75 was probably all the fees, and I might have been thinking in $USD

In the Netherlands it was about €75, filled most of the paperwork out online although we did have to go in to the KVK (Chamber of Commerce) to complete the process.

Always happy to see more new Swift projects pop up, especially on the server side. It's great watching the language evolve and continue to add more powerful features.

As a long time baseball fan, the "punishment" is a joke. This is one of the worst cheating scandals in baseball history and Rob Manfred (Commissioner of MLB) basically gave a slap on the wrist. Every team/player in the league would be willing to trade this "punishment" for a World Series title.

> ... I don't think a huge advantage was had here.

I have too hard disagree on this. Knowing the pitch is a huge advantage in baseball.

I think Netlify has an amazing product and have been looking into using Gatsby for some projects. Thanks for linking those templates!

Always love a good coffee science deep dive! Pour over is my brew method of choice (which this article focuses on) and it was really interesting learning more about the math (Darcy's Law) behind what affects flow rate/brew time. Worth a read!
