I enjoyed the subtle messaging: drop your Netflix for 20 bux. pick up a seed box for 4 bux.

Longshot Systems | Machine Learning Researcher | London | Full time | 1x per week in person

We're hiring for Machine Learning Researchers at Longshot. If you really enjoy the modelling side of machine learning and like iterating rapidly on your ideas to try and beat the best existing models (think a Kaggle competition, but against the market) you’d be a great fit for this role. Open to the full range of Junior to Senior candidates at the moment, please forward to anyone you think would be a good fit.

Certainly helped to be early in that particular market. It certainly helped that Hammersmith lot.

And yet the biggest markets on there are consistently us centric.

What state is that? Sounds pretty bad.

You jest but a serious proposal on the table in Brasil right now is constant/ongoing facial recognition on online betting sites to authorise the session.

The migration guides dont work as of the hack as they all rely on desktop tools which used the api that script kiddies used to dump that list of 33m phone numbers. Any updated guides?

the expensive bit of serving big websites is the ads, the tracking, the analytics, the vast internal teams focused on endless avb testing etc. if you boil Wikipedia down it's mostly static pages with a crud editor. it's cached to the moon and back, most pages don't change. the pages are tiny. they're not paying aws for bandwidth.

Longshot Systems | Software Engineer | £40k - £80k | 4 Days remote 1 day in office | London, UK

We’re looking for an early/mid career dev to help build and maintain our sports betting prop trading platform. We’re a bit like a hedge fund, but for sports betting. You’d be using golang and a host of web and network technologies to add to and improve the platform. jobs@longshotsystems.co.uk with a CV, please. Applicants need to have the right to live and work in the UK already, can't sponsor.

A tracker thing for my son's in their first year. tracks sleep, food, awake, poos. easy hand off between me and their mum so we know when it's time for a nap or feed etc. got a cool radial data Viz where easy ring is 24h and the rings stack up. let's you see sleep patterns really easily. sorry no demo or screens as the data is all private and there's no security on there!

I'm currently setting up a small coding assessment for recruitment purposes at my company. I think in 2023 it's not reasonable to restrict the usage of tools like gpt4 or copilot. I wonder how advent of code will enforce this?

Does this work in real time? Considered gambling applications?

The pill can have pretty severe mental health impacts on women. I think as long as these are clearly signposted so that women know what they might be getting themselves into, then fair enough. Also tons of other side effects, some of which are pretty severe if taken in combination with the correct (eg most unlucky) underlying health issues.

it's called an isochrone.

Demonware handle the online services for the CoD franchise.

I hope never to come across you in real life or do business with you. Your response to reported illegal activity is to laugh at the reporter? Do better.

Jack Four by Neal Asher. sci fi first person mega action. impossible to put down. Close second would be Hail Mary by the guy who wrote the Martian.

One quite important issue is the border. English and Scottish people will almost certainly never tolerate any kind of friction at that border. We've been moving across it seamlessly for centuries, families are mixed, businesses straddle the border, etc. If the Northern Ireland debacle has shown us anything, it's if Scotland were to leave and then join the EU that border would become an absolute political nightmare. The EU has an absolutist position on border integrity, but locals have an absolutist position of border porosity. I don't think there's a compromise that both sides could tolerate.

those were the days! I was really productive in that mode, although the quality of output was 1/10 at best. Buggy, insecure, etc. Don't even talk about maintainability! But, but! You got it done real fast and most of the time for some random website that doesnt handle money, who cares?

This worked. I had an idle /29 and gave it up to them instead of paying.

The peloton is the main group of riders. They all share the same time, even if they're spread out 50-100m.

I'm looking forward to seeing the new GBR company privatised in 20 years, making a small group of people a very large amount of money. Again.

openstreetmap might happen to have a list of airports with decent metadata, but it'll have zero info about actual flights.

it's encrypted, they store the blob and ship it to any browser that auths correctly. sync works just fine.

Kelly staking criteria tells you how much to bet in such situations. in this case: nothing since it's a pointless bet, economically speaking. you may derive utility from the lols, though, in which case probably don't bet the whole bank in one go!
