Wrote a parser of legal documents.
Who knew that legal docs follow a grammar simple enough for some regex hacks.

Userspace NVMe diskdriver that allows a SSD to be used concurrently by multiple nodes in a PCIe cluster and by individual threads in a CUDA kernel, eliminating CPU in the data path entirely.

I modified my GLMatrix screensaver white to match my backlit keyboard and then recompiled it.

I salvaged the mx browns from a garbage ricer keyboard that broke and fit them into an aluminum clipboard.
Wired them all up the an mcu and bitbanged out ps/2.

wrote a really shitty media player that works, but not well. It's got visualizations and then I lost interest.

It is ugly as shit, but that is pretty neat. Good job.

I disliked a coworker so much that I wrote a script which did (more and more of, over time) his job until he got canned.

I don't feel too bad. None of our competitors ever got the script so he can still keep his career. I simply don't have to deal with him anymore.

>The lineup consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzelvanes, so fitted to the ambifacient lunar waneshaft that sidefumbling was effectively prevented. The main winding was of the normal lotus o-deltoid type placed in panendermic semiboloid slots of the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a non-reversible tremie pipe to the differential girdlespring on the ‘up’ end of the grammeters.

"My job is safe only because no one got around to automating it yet" gives me the same pause as "security through obfuscation." That's why I invest time in automating my own work to free up time for the tasks which look like they require a human. I put off being made redundant and my productivity looks stellar.
>>
>>61708925
How shit was his job that he got replaced by a script?
>>
>>61708943
In the data path, yes. SSD is able to read and write directly to RAM or GPU memory without having to use a bounce buffer.

Fucking kek. What did the script do?
>>
>>61708981
Depends how you look at it. In a nutshell, he was that guy which many companies have who, if hit by a bus, would mean everything grinds to a halt. The person who's the only one in the whole building who knows how to login and use a dozen vendor sites, services, etc. Poor decision on management's part but I digress.

All I had to do was go one service at a time. Shipping, for example: all of our purchase orders were formatted the same way and the contact point was unchanging over long periods. Scrape the relevant data from a PO, paste it into a label template, print a copy and forward the order to the carrier. He might have been the only human being who knew all of the relevant accounts and such but they can just be stored in a file too.

He seemed exceptionally important to a lot of people but it was an illusion. There's a fucking lot of that going on out there if you look with an objective eye.

I used to love Omegle, back when it wasn't overrun by Rajesh's bots. I'd use it again if they found away to circumvent the spam.

I don't even understand half of these words. Can someone tell me if it's just a bunch of buzzwords thrown in there or if it actually makes sense an anon is a wizard?

Wait, so you're saying that you didn't imply that you know those words? Is that an admission that you don't?

My exact same thoughts.

Why did you dislike him that much? What did he do to you?

I had a summer job in high school at a construction company where for every project they had 2 excel files with part numbers, one showing price and one showing quantity.

It was a couple thousand parts per project and some poor fuck had to combine them into a single file MANUALLY, obviously me being the high school student, this was my job during the summer.

Over the course of a day 16 year old me wrote a super shitty and inefficient VBA script that did the whole thing in about 20 minutes. There's no reason it should be that slow for only a couple thousand lines but they were infinetly thankful because it saved them days of work. They gave me $100 extra and I was happy too, but thinking back I should've probably asked for more lol

Not the most impressive thing I did in a technical sense (actually, it was probably one of my worst projects ever), but pretty much the one that had the most impact.
>>
>>61715496
Technically he didn't do anything to me, I just didn't like the fact that everyone thought he was some irreplaceable hot shit and it just really annoyed me, you know?
>>
>>61708986
How would you sync to the clock though?
>>
>>61708653
So, tis not something special, but I once wrote a second hand site parser, that tracked one exact thing, and wrote email to me about new ads or price changes in already known once.
>>
>>61709051
Plenty of these people out there


Can't blame a man for burrowing in though
>>
>>61715522
What clock? Of the bus? That's handled in hardware and has nothing to do with what I'm doing.
