Kelmscott Manor is great too if you’re willing to make a trek: https://kelmscottmanor.org.uk/


Agree it’s taken a long time but have you seen https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/ann-opam-2-2-0-beta3/14772 ?


I hadn't, no. As I said I nominally just check every couple of months if support has been moved to Tier 1.

That OPAM 2.2 is actually nearing release is good news. I'll keep a more vigilant eye on it for the next month or two.

Ironically, I can't even remember what v5 feature it was that was a deal breaker (to not have) anymore, anyway.


Yeah I’m pumped! I spent way too much time banging my head against the wall earlier in the year trying to compile Semgrep for windows.


honest question, what's wrong with the CIC?


It's been sometime since I was there, but it felt like it tried to be a South Park Commons style salon, but promising founders in the Software and Hardware space had plenty of better options like Engine or I-Labs, or moving out West to join YC or SPC.

I've noticed UAV/Autonomous/SpaceTech (UAE and Saudi are on a buying streak rn) and Biotech (unsurprising) startups do fairly well in the Boston scene.

Bummer, I always enjoyed joking about this

I feel seen! For me it’s some combination of too much caffeine or sugar and too little water or sleep.


Which WeWork do you belong to? Boston’s are all low-frequency rfid


This is one in SF. I can clone the card, and it'll work, but then within a few days it won't work any longer.


Does the original keep working?


Yes


Built-in what???


These violent delights have violent ends


Hook it up to GPTs based on GPT-7, build the theme park... frankly, yeah, Westworld seems way, way more achievable in the short term than it seemed when I watched it way back when.

That said, while 3D printing like this may advance and be useful, I think more normal humanoid robots that are covered in a human layer is much more likely.

In Westworld the first versions of the hosts were exactly that, and progressed to the more... fleshy... kind later on.

I used to own a unique sculpture (created by an artist from Tijuana) that embodied that phrase.


Cool!


Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human hand.


Can the hand operate a 3D-printed gun?
