2026-02-19 06:24:10 +0100humasectgot into retrofuturism =)
2026-02-19 06:23:40 +0100 <edwardk> chromoblob: wanted to lean into the art deco 1930s style isaac asimov novel cover aesthetic

2026-02-19 06:23:10 +0100 <chromoblob> hmm, retro visual design
2026-02-19 06:23:09 +0100 <edwardk> https://techcrunch.com/2026/02/04/exclusive-positron-raises-230m-series-b-to-take-on-nvidias-ai-ch… is substantially similar and should be free access
2026-02-19 06:22:47 +0100 <edwardk> more relevant in the haskell space was luring bgamari and johnw in.

2026-02-19 06:21:54 +0100 <humasect> great to hear =) had full reign of haskell projects in about 2012 great time

2026-02-19 06:20:06 +0100 <edwardk> We used a fair bit of Haskell when were first got off the ground ~2.5 years ago. Then it faded away as we moved from prototyping into production. Now it is back in earnest.
2026-02-19 06:18:52 +0100 <humasect> interesting. good choice haskell
2026-02-19 06:18:50 +0100 <edwardk> We make chips that make AI run fast, focused in heavily on AI inference rather than training.

2026-02-19 06:18:09 +0100 <humasect> what is Positron ?
2026-02-19 06:17:56 +0100 <edwardk> So I feel a lot less guilty now about hiring Haskell folks and then throwing them at C++ and SystemVerilog.
2026-02-19 06:17:19 +0100 <edwardk> In other news, we're using a lot more haskell these days at Positron!

2026-02-19 06:09:34 +0100 <edwardk> anyways this started by accident, and now has taken over my home. i need to learn moderation.

2026-02-19 06:07:57 +0100 <edwardk> the big freshwater tank has an autmatic water change system and just sort of takes care of itself. the big reef tank, will not be so hands off.
2026-02-19 06:06:57 +0100 <edwardk> but it feels a bit underwhelming in comparison ;)
2026-02-19 06:06:49 +0100 <edwardk> for reading the co2 sensor in the room and updating the dashboard

2026-02-19 06:06:14 +0100 <edwardk> i do have a bit of haskell in the mi
2026-02-19 06:04:35 +0100 <edwardk> trying to convince my wife we can keep epaulette sharks. she's not amused.
2026-02-19 06:03:55 +0100 <edwardk> and i'm kind of glad i didn't pull the trigger on my previous 1100 gallon plan!
2026-02-19 06:03:37 +0100 <edwardk> but compared to the "huge to me" 450 gallon stingray tank this is insane.
2026-02-19 06:03:09 +0100 <edwardk> i'm sure to anyone who has been doing this as a hobby for a long time this is nothing
2026-02-19 06:02:57 +0100 <edwardk> so dosing pumps for kalkwasser for the calcium+alkalinity, automatic top off, testing equipment and probes.
