gptel in emacs does this. You can run the same prompt against different models in separate emacs windows (local or via api w/ keys) at the same time to compare outputs. I highly recommended it. https://github.com/karthink/gptel
+1. Accessibility is in huge demand right now and setting up a consultancy could be very interesting for you as you get to see issues and patterns across companies. Most, if not all, Fortune 500 companies are interested accessibility.
In my experience it is not one or the other. You can experiment first and then document, or vice versa. The point of documentation is "writing is thinking". The act of writing forces you to think through your ideas in ways that other modes of thinking do not. This is especially important when you are working on a team and need to share your ideas.
I agree that sufficiently detailed design documents are indispensable from code and should be avoided. However, clearly documenting the why, what and how of your work helps align everyone clearly. It also helps an individual clarify their ideas to themselves. It is hard to write clearly & succinctly. It takes time & practice, but I find it essential.
This. A big problem with office work is office cube design. I'm old enough to have had a closed door office in the 90s and it was the best. I also worked in large cubes which had moveable partitions as walls where you couldn't see your neighbours. They were also good, not great, but better than today's cubes. They even had large book shelves where you could keep your reference books!
At home, I can close my door and it is much superior for my personal productivity than an open office cube plan.
That is amazing, thank you for sharing. Given you had experienced sound before your hearing deteriorated, is it possible to describe the difference in sound with a cochlear implant? I always thought with the limited number of electrodes in an implant, the sound would be "buzzy" (less rich), but the brain is quite malleable and maybe adapts to the new sounds.
I also have kids, but where I live we have plenty of pine & maple trees and traditional grass doesn't grow well in the shade. But we are lucky and native moss filled in. Moss is great for balls, they bounce & roll better, especially for games like bocce & croquet. The kids love it and I rarely have to mow or water. Sometimes there is a native alternative to grass, sometimes not.
Alfredo Canziani is awesome and did a lot of the heavy lifting for this course. I agree with siddharthb_, it would be great to include his name in the title.
Except he missed one major selling point. Our food/restaurant scene is second to none. If you consider moving here then negotiate a couple of months remote work per year and work from Costa Rica in Jan-Feb.
Back in the late 90's and early 00's I did the same thing. We had an online record store, homebass, and we would give free records (mostly promos) to our best customers. I would also include a hand written note thanking them for their business.
