A self-taught #Ruby / #Javascript engineer who dabbles in #MachineLearning and has recently relocated from #Manchester to #Brussels.

Outside of tech I like learning about heterodox economics, bouldering, and doing a bit of stargazing

Judged not a suitable shot for LinkedIn, nevertheless the world needs to see my impressive jump split - behold!
I have finally got around to trying out #phlex and so far I am loving it.
I am experimenting with wrapping layout primitives (see https://ruby.social/@Sandbagger/110866339322193551) into Phlex components, and being able to render them like the method calls to HTML tags

@[email protected] @[email protected] They introduce a new level of abstraction of “layout primitives”, documented in https://every-layout.dev, which is used to gerrymander discrete components/blocks into larger compositions. I have found it to be an eye-opener that has changed the way I think about design. It is not just the content, but the way in which the content was delivered was especially impressive. There is a generous free section, but in the end, I gladly coughed up some of my money.

Plan B:

I used this nasty command:
echo "$(curl URL | pup '.card-title > a json{}' | jq 'del(.[] | .tag, .children)' | sqlite-utils insert database articles - --pk=id)"

To scrape some HTML > JSON > SQLite database.

Followed these steps to use #OpenAI API for the embeddings...

And I finally have some embeddings. The analysis will have to wait for another day.

#sqlite-utils, openai-to-sqlite both a delight to work with

ChatGPT managed to spot that I fat-fingered an instance variable that was stopping a view from showing correctly

My #MonsterBorg has been neglected of late as what spare time I have had has gone into learning about matrix multiplication.

Reading some of the reviews one of the criticism is that the #RaspberryPi gets wedged in between the chassis and the battery pack rendering it inaccessible.

I decided to drill some extra holes to thread the wires through with the idea that I might mount the pi on top instead.
