If you know your shit, it shouldn't matter what framework you're using.
And yet, what is the incessant drumbeat of most job ads, these days - even in data science?
That's right: "N years in framework X"
- aianus 10y ago> That's right: "N years in framework X" I don't know where this meme comes from. Six out of the seven jobs/internships I've had (in SF, Seattle, and Toronto) didn't care about any specific framework or language whatsoever and still don't.
- wjn0 10y agoI don't follow job postings for ML, but I will say this - there is inherent value in being familiar with certain frameworks when hiring for non-entry-level positions. This is particularly true for ML, where it can be very useful to know the optimizations that the libraries do/don't make behind the scenes, etc. Should most ML job postings require n years of experience in some framework? Maybe not - but I can see why a company might see value in it.
