I love how the two #airports I use regularly now have the upgraded bag scanners. Went from car to past TSA checkpoint in 10 minutes with 2 bags and 2 laptops.

There are more and more stories like this. ICE is the modern American SS. This is wrong.

And to be clear, I have video of this white woman but it shouldn't be happening to anyone.

Had a nightmare I overslept, missed standup, and was put on a PIP and given a "mentor" for that.

Turns out I actually overslept and got on the bus into NYC 2 hours later than I planned. 😂

Checking out a co-working space in NYC today. Pricey, but pretty neat! :)

The #quartz flew off the dop at 18 carats, down from the 28-carat rough. Good time to re-dop and cut the crown facets I guess.

Hoping for a 25-30% return on rough. 🤞

Friend: I liked #Wicked the musical but not Wicked the book.

Me: Did you not like it because it was... Defying brevity?

Doing some rough preforming on a piece of #quartz. This will be a #StandardBrilliant cut.

We'll make those red, green, and blue shells.

Swapping over to the #fluorite, got the girdle and pavilion facets in at 3000 grit. Polishing tomorrow.

Polishing the rest of the pavilion tonight. Once that's done, starting a standard brilliant amethyst while transferring this piece.

#gemsky but not really because this is just glass 😅

Got the pavilion facets positioned more or less where I want them, and polished the mains (just the tip) today.

Preforming a French Calibre cut on 260 grit. Practicing on glass as it's my first time doing this cut.

Anyone have a favorite #tech stack for a #RAG powered #API? This is what I've been using, but I'm curious about other solutions out there:

* GCP
* Gunicorn
* Python/Flask
* Chroma #vectorstore
