on: Why Working from Home Will Stick
With that kind of commute (assuming it's 1.5 hrs each way), OP is probably in the Vacaville/Fairfield/Davis/Sacramento area, where there are not actually a ton of great tech jobs. Some to be sure, but it's pretty different from SF.

on: The Nintendo Switch uses my open source code
This is so cynical, yeah plenty of people have jobs that look like this, but if you look hard enough, there are tons of corners of the internet where people (communities!) are doing weird and fun things with code.

on: Startups from Y Combinator’s S19 Demo Day 2
I'm quite confused my Tensil, is the training of the model moved to their chips, or the final model? If the former, then are the chips locked in to whatever model they were built for, e.g. this chip only trains a multi-layer perceptron with n layers? Or are the chips re-programmable or FPGAs? If the latter, don't most models run quite quickly on CPU after training anyways?

on: Show HN: A star map creation tool with Common Lisp
Another customer segment you could go after: I generated the star map from the day/time/location of my wedding, and themed the colors to match the wedding colors. My wife thought it was a great idea to print + frame it.
