This is the thing. I don't understand how the company is going to function once all those folks become multi-millionaires. It is a really odd situation .. I don't know if something quite like it occurred. Even G, M and…
You were a helpless, innocent kid once too :)
I've heard about the lotto system but assumed the school district would be obligated to bus kids (i.e. not force them to use public transit alone). The parents have issues with the school bus??
I visited Seattle the city proper recently, and also felt depressed. Not sure why I got that vibe. On paper Seattle is great, and no-doubt, the Pacific north west has good nature and tech-industry. It felt odd why…
I'm extremely miffed. Mulling leaving the country at some point in the near future, and that triggers a much higher tax bill (considered a deemed disposition). There is just no way to get ahead in this place.
I did not invest in the stock market properly in the last decade (mid-40s; tech income but just put it to paying off house - estimating this cost be at least 5 million bucks conservatively). Opening a stock account and…
I am confused how all these things are able to interoperate. Are the creators of these models following the same IO for their models? Won't the tokenizer or token embedder be different? I am genuinely confused by how…
Can any kind soul explain the difference between GGUF, GGML and all the other model packaging I am seeing these days? Was used to pth and the thing tf uses. Is this all to support inference or quantization? Who manages…
Err .. the media people take visual quality and aesthetics very, very seriously. The Director has a vision and the tech goes to amazing lengths to support it. It is a different world as the original post said.
I also worked at IBM (Research) early in my career. Most folks I know left but some good folks went into manager/leader positions. I always wonder .. do manager/leaders get paid better at IBM (Research)? Cause the…
Oh .. Don Box? (remember reading his books on the Microsoft stack a lifetime ago) .. if this is the same person.
Looks pretty nice (high-level skimming of content .. I work in the field but more DL focused. Mathy ML is my nemesis). Two questions related to learning in general: 1) I feel I have a good undergrad level grasp of ML…
Canadian banks are kind of bloated. The amount they spend on branch design is insane.
Same here. What sort of work do you do? I feel like I need a support group.
I'm a decade older than you, have a PhD, in corporate research doing AI and feel EXACTLY the same way. Early on, I had multiple opportunities to make a life in the Bay area. I stupidly did not take those opportunities.…
Dealing with this professionally for DNNs. It just doesn't work. The large, important DNN models are so complicated, the toolchains for optimized execution don't do sane things unless you do some sort of vertical…
I think it is common. But the partner occupations you list are very different. It also depends on how advanced you are in your career. The stages are also quite different (early career, young kids, and so on). What…
I missed out on the property boom at a personal level because I was not taught the value of debt. So I get your point. We didn't purchase a home because it always seemed like a bubble that simply could not inflate…
Site looks pretty nice. Too bad I just heard of it. I guess no easy way to archive this. This is my biggest grip with all that followed straight HTML.
Any company to recommend in the domain? You are right that robotics has a good future. Just really capital intensive and hard to make money in the short term. I have a friend who is a founder in the space and man ..…
NVidia was truly a spectacular opportunity. So was Microsoft, Databricks, etc. I picked a dud, and didn't realize it until it was too late (just now). Question is .. what are the obvious winners today, and for the next…
Regarding 1.8x, what is your tax rate? I have the same situation in Canada but my marginal tax rate is approx 50%. As such, it is better for me to pay down my mortgage (through early payments).
Seeing ads shown to my 3 year old when they do basic supervised web browsing on educational websites seems wrong.
Here is the issue though .. as a man, if I am not interested in clubbing, going to the bar, art class, etc. where do I meet women to ask? This was the conundrum I was in throughout grad school. It is really, really…
Tax rebates or hope they would eventually be profitable? Target in Canada is a great case study on what not to do.
