Yeah I dont understand why people are glad its down. I have an account specifically curated to my interests, where I unsubscribed from all the default subs and only subscribed to things I'm interested in. Theres a lot of great niche communities out there for my hobbies that I've found on reddit.

I worked at APL for 3 years (2015 - 2018) and loved my time there. Although, the work got repetitive over time and was no longer challenging, the thing I loved the most was the social environment. Theres a lot to be said for having a good team/group of people around you. I still keep in touch with some of them.

I tried a pyflow a couple years ago. It was very confusing and not intuitive at all, which is what I think one of the biggest advantages of these types of GUIs is supposed to be. Doing simple things like adding inputs and operations to the graph were very difficult.

I ended up developing my own tool based on the flowchart editor in pyqtgraph. The GUI for that was quite intuitive and the code to modify it was also far simpler. That said there are a few features from pyflow that I wish the pyqtgraph editor had, like subgraphs.

Had no idea there was a Rockstar office in Andover! I grew up there.

Can you print variables in lldb with the debug information?

One compiler that I use which emits llvm ir added support for debug information recently and its now possible to set breakpoints in gdb but you can't print out any stack variables or anything so its not useful other than figuring out which code paths execute.

I'd like to learn more about this. Maybe contribute to the compiler and fix this issue.

I never used the streaming part, but why did they kill the app for playing music offline? I liked it for that.

I work in an office that shares space with Zoox. I've never told anyone this but I find them incredibly annoying.

Whenever they take their cars out for a test drive, they sit in the middle of the road in the parking lots. If you aren't going to be driving around anytime soon, just pull into a parking spot, instead of blocking all the empty spots and making it more difficult for people to drive around you.

I once wrote a little python script that did something like this in the systray.

Is there a specific career site for the space sciences lab or is the only way to find out about openings by looking through all the ucb postings?

I have a list of sites I occasionally check for jobs and would like to ssl to the list, but there doesn't seem like an easy way to know what openings are available.
