@amiloradovsky a cli version would be nice indeed

@amiloradovsky squiggle is just a bunch of js, should work offline.

You don't need to have a statistics insight, just combine those intervals and get the risk profile: given X amount of resources I will fuck that up in Y% of cases.

@xameer lazy eval is basically GC for execution.

If you like your memory and cars on manual, you'll hate it there.

@amiloradovsky It is easy enough to run guesstimates:

But, as they say in docs, you gonna need a bit of training to get overconfidence under control.
The good news here, is the `x to y` model is less underconfidence-sensitive so you can set "protect thy ass" upper ranges and still get an realistic, actionable estimate.

@amiloradovsky lognormal from percentile intervals for the rescue!

@amiloradovsky I *did* care about my company mission despite not being a shareholder or something. But the payment was also quite good.
And it helped me to pull through some difficult times.

The problem starts where the payment is substituted by the mission.

Like in ads, where they sell you happiness or some other stupid cliche, but you're buying some stupid stuff or service of theirs.
I'd fucking sue for false advertising if I could.

@dragonsidedd @anarchopunk_girl I don't find this particular design inherently evil. Hub-and-spokes design is helpful in a hospital triage rooms, leveraging staff and allowing safety for more patients.

@acegikmo something-something wedge product?..

@glassbottommeg @mike all y'all!

@lupyuen Please, for the love of everything holy, don't tell people to `cabal install` packages. There's enough suffering in the world already.

@omglinux nice. I'd like some of that for Chromecast audio too.

I've heard that Australian media magnates are wild, but this is quite something.
