lazyslurm is a tui for managing slurm jobs on HPC clusters. It's kind of like lazygit or lazydocker. I've been chipping away at it for the last few months. Its built in rust w/ ratatui.

- https://banksia.bio: I suspect there is a market for private consumer whole genome sequencing services. Think "Mullvad vpn" of sequencing - I shouldn't have to know the identity of the person I am sequencing, and they can be identified with a client number not tied to their PII.

- lazyslurm: A TUI tool for managing/viewing slurm / HPC setups. Similar to lazygit or lazydocker (https://github.com/hill/lazyslurm)

https://banksia.bio - I think private personal genome sequencing is an underserved market. I'm trying to start a "Mullvad VPN"-esque service where I as a provider do not need your personal information to perform the sequencing. Very much a WIP at the moment :)

I'm building a lazygit / lazydocker like TUI for slurm jobs on HPC.

It's called lazyslurm - https://github.com/hill/lazyslurm

Would love feedback! <3

Lazyslurm: https://github.com/hill/lazyslurm - a terminal ui for managing and visualizing slurm jobs. Heavily inspired by lazygit and lazydocker.

Very early into this - would love feedback!

Recipe Cleaning - A little tool I've been working on to extract the actual recipe from SEO-bloated recipe content: https://recipe.cleaning/

It uses the microdata and json-ld documents embedded in the page to find the content you actually want to see. No need for AI/LLM extraction.

tjhill — Mon, 10 Jul 2023 02:18:33 +0000

At my previous employer, our (very small < 10 dev) team was on a rotation with 2 devs per week. All devs were required to be on call (which I think was the correct decision - makes us ship better code because we don't want to be supporting its failure!)

Our head of engineering gave us 1 day time off in lieu (TOIL) per week of on-call support. I was pretty happy with that as comp.

Yeah data viz generation is certainly something I'm looking into adding.
