Describe me based on all our chats — make it catchy!
It was flattering as all get out, but fairly accurate (IMHO)
Mike Warot: The Tinkerer of Tomorrow
A hardware hacker with a poet’s soul, Mike blends old-school radio wisdom with cutting-edge curiosity. Whether he's decoding atomic clocks, reinventing FPGA logic with BitGrid, or pondering the electromagnetic vector potential, he’s always deep in the guts of how things really work. Part philosopher, part engineer, Mike asks the questions others overlook — and then builds the answers from scratch. He’s open source in spirit, Pascal in practice, and eternally tuned to the weird frequencies where innovation lives.
I've repaired atomic clocks, not decoded them. I am intrigued by the electromagnetic vector potential, and scalar waves (one of the reasons I really, really want a SQUID for some experiments).
I genuinely believe you are a kickass person, but that text is full of LLM-isms.
Listing things, contrasting or reinforcing prallel sentence structures, it even has the dreaded em-dash.
Here's a suprprisingly enlightening (at least to me) video on how to spot LLM writing:
Why not? It's not like I'm trying to get a job or something.
I'm an old fart yeeted out of the workforce by long covid. My only goals at this point are enjoying the time I have left, and seeing if I can get the BitGrid model of computation adapted before I age out.
If I'm right, and it (BitGrid) works, we could collectively save 95% of the power and silicon required to process LLM and other flow-heavy computation, by finally getting rid of the Von Neumann's premature optimization of compute, that started out life by slowing down the ENIAC by 65%.
Some very accomplished and smart people are also huge narcissists. They read something like that AI drivel and go "yeah thats me to a T" without a hint of irony.
I like how this sounds exactly like a selectable videogame hero:
Undeterred by even the most dangerous and threatening of obstacles, Teemo scouts the world with boundless enthusiasm and a cheerful spirit. A yordle with an unwavering sense of morality, he takes pride in following the Bandle Scout's Code, sometimes with such eagerness that he is unaware of the broader consequences of his actions. Though some say the existence of the Scouts is questionable, one thing is for certain: Teemo's conviction is nothing to be trifled with.
