"computer science" and "bicycles" aren't the same domain, it's fine to have the same acronym. "computer science" and "tv shows" aren't the same domain, it's fine to have the same acronym. "computer science" and "computer science" are the same domain, it's not a good idea to use the same acronym.

Large Models is in the title so it's obviously not about radio

  The acronym is also spelled out in the title: LoRA = Low Rank Adaptation.

  Context is hard!

    So instead of LoRa and anything else, everyone now has to say LoRa (the communication protocol) or LoRa (the large model thing). Having to add context all the time makes everything so much simpler !

      Low rank adaptation is abbreviated LoRA
    - squigz 2y ago
      Or potentially include the necessary context in the title of the post.

        Or just pick another name

        That does seem to be more reasonable than expecting people to pick up on context

  Large models is not spelled in full, and doesn't explicitely says it's not about the communication protocol.

LoRa is radio communication so part of EE, not CS. Otherwise, I'm going to toss TV shows as part of CS, since Amazon Prime and Netflix streaming are things. Also, it's the original programming.

> "computer science" and "computer science" are the same domain, it's not a good idea to use the same acronym. But “radio communication" is not “computer science”, even though people sometimes plug radio transceivers into computers, just like “tv shows” aren't “computer science” just because people sometimes view or store their shows on a computer, and “bicycles” aren’t “computer science” because sometimes people mount computers on their bikes.

"Computer science" isn't really one domain anymore - the field split into several subdomains in the 2010s. Just try to get a job as a "computer scientist" now - the recruiter would be like "No, are you a web developer? Mobile developer? Backend developer? Data scientist? Data engineer? Cloud engineer? AI engineer? Machine learning developer?"
