Yeah I should have been more explicit that this comment is in reference to ML code. Training is nothing but a loop so its unlikely you pass type A in iteration 1 and type B in iteration 200. If that happens most likely your training data is

Yep agreed. Though you can communicate design intentions in comments, no ? There is another argument that programmers might not follow the comments, so strict enforcement by types helps - I don't believe in such a philosophy though. Mo

The type safety argument is total BS. First of all the training script will fail for the very first time if there is a type error. You'd be a moron to pass an argument of a different type 'a couple of hours' into the training

I've found the keyboard shortcut to be a lot less annoying Esc. I just do it automatically these days on any popup. These damn website notifications aren't going away anywhere, they are getting all the more pervasive. So I've

You had me at the shared debug session. I am amazed at how VSCode has evolved in such a short span of time. Technically it's not an IDE but it has most of the required features of the IDE. The liveshare feature does require you to be s

Looks like the protein can be consumed by humans as well, since many people eat roaches. Can't the protein powder be used like whey isolate powder? If yes, that's a massive industry to tap.

Loved the 6th video - How, when and who of sales. I was pleasantly surprised how the generic advice to find a corporate sales guy to lead your early stage startup sales is so ineffective. A similar analogy to engineering also applies I gues

Perhaps, but on the bright side, I see an increase in digital transactions, particularly wallets. Almost every nook and corner shop in India now accepts payment by Paytm or an equivalent wallet. It'll be interesting to see the uptick i

As engineer no 1 at an early stage startup, you don't need ths same skills that are needed at FAANG. I may be wrong, but you are constantly iterating and mostly building software that has a shelf life of may be 3-6 months. You are not

You can use www.breezometer.com to check real time PM2.5 readings in your location. Based on that you can figure out whether you need an air filter or not.

For me, it was the mobile interface interlaced with so many video ads that killed my usage. I do open the app sometimes to check what some of my distant friends post, but my usage has drastically gone down. I think 5 years back I spent at l

So the number of raw qubits are in the order of a million for large prime factorization or to make Shor's algorithm a reality. This is because the physical qubits are highly unstable and prone to errors. The error correction methodolog

Thank you. The latter point about accounting metrics that you mention is very valid. I will think on these lines. I am very much interested in reaching out to VCs who are supportive and understand training costs for AI. If you know of any p

Man, I am appalled at your response. What we are seeing in Delih is beyond alarming. In fact, even the so called normal in Delhi is alarming by the global pollution standards. Please avoid making such flippant comments. PM2.5 is at a hazard
