Sorry I've been off for a while. Embedpolls helps you to create minimalist polls that can be used anywhere, for the moment I use it to add polls to blog posts (in Ghost) and landing pages (the embedpolls.com landing page itself)

Hey David! How is it going? I see that you have used tailwind for codebird, a very nice choice!

Doing well thx! I'm curious what your startup does?

I just saw the audio chat announcement, I'm at work at that hour but I'll try to join the audio for at least some minutes.

Thanks for the answers. I read this last year tim.blog/2020/02/02/reasons-t… and I've been wondering what is the point where mixed work and personal life can go wrong. I guess, in the future, there'll be some products to solve that issue by creating online personas, I have seen some like rosebud.ai/ and pinscreen.com/facereplacement/. The thought of building something like that has crossed my mind a couple of times (because it's still early for that), but the learning curve is really high, for the moment I'm learning about GAN's just for fun. Do you know some makers working with computer vision tech? It is an interesting space.

I tried to edit the photo today. It has not changed yet, I'm not sure if it's going to change, maybe there is some approval to be done 😅. The original image was a Peruvian alpaca (the one with cold green background colors), the new one is an Argentinian llama (the one that has warmer colors). Well, I did a sort of short nomading mvp back in 2019 (2 months between Cusco Peru and Salta Argentina).

The alpaca: One day I was walking down the street in Cusco city and then somehow and end up in the middle of Sacsayhuamán ruins, I was a bit tired so I chill out with the alpacas (because they looked so relaxed (aspirational grade level relaxed)) for a couple of hours just contemplating life, the one in the photo is called Juan Pedro.

The llama: I was on the road to Cafayate (Argentina) but the bus took some stops. One of them was at some winery place and after some wine tasting I saw llamas outside and I was a bit surprised, anyways I took some food for llamas and went to know them, I did not find out their names tho.

Haha great stories on the alpaca and llama. I do indeed still see the old photo. I'll have a look what happened to the other one.

Regarding GAN, I remember Sarv was working on GAN a few years ago. I don't know him very well, but met him at a Stripe talk a few years ago. I suggest reaching out to him.
