I'm not affiliated with any of them. The plug is genuine. I've been on both sides of interview table to know it's a crapshoot. You really are better off with one of those three than on your own. Those companies go out of thei

I keep saying this but no one seems to be listening. Use triplebyte, interviewing.io, or recurse.com for all recruitment. You are not going to beat those folks in terms of quality of candidates. They have data and stats. You have anecdotes.

Humanity is doomed. At no point have we managed progress and advancement without causing a whole lot of human misery. Someone always pays the cost for your luxury.

Facebook is training rats in a maze. At least the theory is the same. So the question then is, are you a rat in a maze?

It was very brave of her to do what she did but I can't help but feel like her courageous act is being squandered by the rest of us. Uber is certainly the most egregious example of blatant sexism and just general aggressive incompetenc

Pigs dance all the time for suitable definitions of dance and time. I don't think optimizing a rats nest of functions with SGD is that impressive. If a model lacks explanatory power what use is it to people? In this case when the solut

This is interesting. My intuition says NNs will be terrible at combinatorial optimization types of problems. Then again Go is a combinatorial type of game and AlphaGo beat everyone. Maybe an NN for Sudoku should use AlphaGo type of architec

Pretty weird statement to make. Why are people buying into the drama? The US government funds all sorts of basic research, implementation, and infrastructure work. Modern web would be impossible without government funding. I see no problem

It takes 1 second to solve a 2x2 system? I don't see how any speed-up is going to make it faster than just using a regular computer.

I honestly don't think you have to do any of those things. You don't need to blog or contribute to OSS or write code on the weekends. I've never had a hiring manager care about any of it. Most just care that you can get along

Isn't it in Apple's financial interest to look the other way? The scam generates money for Apple so the incentives here are misaligned.

I've looked into Coq and like a lot of others here tried to learn the theory and application but it is so far removed from my daily work that the benefits are basically non-existent. I've gotten way more mileage out of trying to l

Startups embody the toxicity of startup culture. There is no need to only make one the bogeyman. Hypergrowth == toxic.

In some sense open and federated information networks go against the grain. Popularity of Facebook is a pretty strong indicator that all the things techies worry about are irrelevant to the general public. Most walled gardens are built for

Pretty sure most humans look the same to a dog. The uniqueness you see is an artefact of how human brains work.
