ummm you are probably wrong. those job postings probably want people with PhDs in Computer Science/Statistics/Applied Math that did hard things with data.
maybe i am just tired right now but "average of sums is equal to the sum of averages" is basically true 100% of the time-it is called the linearity of expectation and is a basic fact of probability. Could you include…
I don't know if people do this for vision yet but I know some people doing this for RL for robotic control.
andrej karpathy is kinda pretty freaking legit but I think the waymo team is probably stronger/larger and has significantly more engineering maturity. caveat: I don't do vision.
for anyone who maybe got confused SLAM stands for Simultaneous Localization and Mapping. edit: I think if it is possible to do SLAM without LIDAR waymo will definitely beat TESLA to the punch since waymo has an absurd…
Reading a full unedited transcription of a speech from a president is also pretty direct... that's existed for 150 years at least i.e. https://yorkblog.com/yorkspast/read-the-actual-article-next-...
Elmo is bae
you must do theory right? tcs? based on the name edit: AI and ML are close enough :)
freeman dyson doesn't have a PhD either jajaja
we call them hidden layers because of path dependence i.e. that is what people called them at first. the first neural network-like things would have input nodes directly connected to output nodes. Thus both layers were…
https://arxiv.org/list/cs.LG/recent from there I look for papers 1. Immediately relevant to my current interests 2. by people I who know write good papers. For chaff-vs-wheat some of my friends use arxiv sanity? to find…
1. arxiv 2. nytimes [trying to quit] 3. reddit [trying to quit] 4. hackernews [trying to quit] tbh I really like trying to minimize my browsing in the morning.
100% correct. I think we are both very lucky in that we are able to do fun science and chase our intellectual interests with a realistic and still fun safety net. Also those closet programmers are always really fun to…
I could rant about this for hours. I actually just went to a defense for a deep learning paper that had a ton of abstract algebra. I am honestly not really a fan of deep learning and algebra because all the papers to me…
Well I would be happy to provide some context. I just finished my first year of CS Phd in ML (more on the theory side) and I really like it. I think most of the places you would want to do a post doc in CS are probably…
being around really smart people doing interesting things is pretty great.
are you already a grad student or are you considering it? in my department [we are an outlier probably] post doc wages are actually pretty comparable to industry i.e. >= 100k. 40k to 70k seems low to me. I would expect…

meh as a baby academic I am not convinced that the nepotism protectionism elitism of academia are markedly higher than the 'real world'
you should be more specific-what part of CS? all the CS postdocs I know see a) pretty happy b) have a really easy back up of a high paying industry gig that they can pivot to because of currently insanely inflated…
while there are good parts to this analysis - military grade tech <---> wildly over-budget and delayed
did you read the article? she clearly suffered severe damage.
woah-also this really like-viscerally demonstrates the destructive power of rifles.
1. I am also uncomfortable about this
I was thinking more co-authorship but I guess the parent used 'linked' more properly as 'advised'
