Of course, it was the first time and he was piloting Solo.

Last year (less than a year in fact, since it was around August), I got a recruiter calling me out of the blue for an opportunity with EA (Electronic Arts)! 
Needless to say, I jumped on it.
Today I got another opportunity for a global financial AI thingy. Hey AI is cool, always wanted to do that too! Money is good too!
Anyway, just wanted to share my warm fuzzy feeling here. But not going to take it, want to stay at EA a bit longer, and game dev is also one of those other things I also always wanted to do, come on!
(Although, to be honest, I am not really doing game development exactly, oopsie)
At any rate, it's a good time to be a developer!

I don't know in the rest of the World but here in Italy I noticed a trend where in February, May and October all Hell breaks loose and recruitment rains from the sky, 2-3 calls per week for the entire month.
Which suits me since I've been pegged for a while in automotive and the sector is not doing fine, at all. Though most offers are underpaid "Italian consultancy" jobs, aka body rental.

"Global financial AI" could mean different things. But if they plan to trade the markets, they'll probably end like Long-Term Capital Management[^].

the recruiter say it's a fintech AI company or something! )

I am looking for a computer microphone to create my video clips for my software.
is there any good one to recommend? my video clips were always silent in the past...

I understood what you meant after the 2nd sentence but after reading just the first one I did the Spock eyebrow raise. It was like asking what kind of hammer to use to saw boards in half.

yes, I need to split it in half...

The biggest problem I find with IoT right now is not size, or functionality, but power consumption.
If you use the hardware for what it's worth, powering it off a LIPO gets impractical fast.
If you barely use the hardware, you've just overpaid for a swiss army knife when all you needed was a rock.
If we're going to usher in a world of particulate computing, where data is dust, we need to tackle The Power Problem(TM)
I don't think size is our limiting factor here. It always comes down to power power power.
This is a bigger problem than keeping up with Moore's Law I think - powering it all.
Where do we go from here?

Need a power management system and computer system of dust processors (dust data is a nice analog). Maybe power requirement can made proportional to data density if possible.

It's probably more than a dream. All kinds of crazy ways to passively grab power are out there, but even with the right capacitors it limits you to a burst-sleep cycle because it takes time to charge it enough to eek out one more iteration of the code.
Ultimately, this is a good technique, but it's not enough by itself, and is only practical for some applications.

Hmm, reversible logic CPUs for (even) lower power consumption?
Solar?
Or go back to the days where you needed to crank a handle to make a phone call

Really off topic, but this is one of the things that floors me when talking to my conspiracy theory "friends." They have no clue that an injectable wifi transmitting, biometric sensing, and GPS tracking nanobot requires power.

I know right. the number of people who come up to me (because I work in IT) and ask why did you get the covid shot. You know they can track you now right?
tempted to do something like the following.
*shake* (monotone voice) The overlord masters don't need to track me. *shake*
(regular voice) no way can they do that
(monotone) Just wait until they reach 90% threshold. Then they can bring in the mind control devices.
*shake*

Of course those same people carry cell phones with them at all times. They are being tracked willingly.

This is one of the joys of working in IOT. Finding energy to scavenge, continuously characterising power usage and making stuff work in reality. Software development has come to be working in giant frameworks needing vast processing, storage and connectivity that one little understands and uses a tiny part of. The discipline and problem solving required to do useful stuff in IOT end-devices is a refreshing change.

programming is completely unpredictable at predicting the unpredictable. Very zen like.
