A large part of the MBA is access to a network of rich/ambitious/well-connected people. The earlier you have your MBA, the more time you have to take advantage of it.

Another thing to keep in mind about hospitalizations is that many people have avoided going to hospitals during the pandemic for non-covid related visits for fear of contracting covid at the hospital and/or adding to hospitals caseload

15k in just tuition does not seem outrageous. Suppose a year is 30 weeks, and you spend 10 hours a week in classes (not even counting the other benefits that college/a college campus may offer), thats about 50 dollars/hr you'

I wonder if there are any economic studies on whether social security increased inflation when it was first enacted. It's not the ideal comparison because of the sheer scale of UBI vs social security but it would be something to get no

Does the added regulation, oversight help prevent the problems that led to the 08 crisis? Also curious to know what/how these learnings manifest themselves outside of goverment imposed regulations.

I think it depends on what you want to focus on. If you want to do deep learning, fast.ai is probably the best resource available. Jeremy Howard and Rachel Thomas (the two founders) have poured quite a lot into fostering a positive, support

I'm not entirely sure how helpful it would be to see these algorithms since many of them rely on machine learning models underneath the hood (IE: a model that predicts the likelihood a user will click a given video). Is it useful for t

Just out of curiousity, can you say a bit about how it influences your every day thinking? And why is measure theory so essential to really understanding probability? I sort of understand why it's necessary to have the language of meas

In the first problem they told you what numbers to put in position 1 and 2. In the second problem you want to find the specific numbers for position 1 and 2 that yield the desired output.

I'll second this. The style is clunky and reads as though the author were trying too hard to make every sentence entertaining which mostly detracts from the work. I know Stephen Merity is a serious researcher and the content here is le

I'm super curious what the ML looks like behind the scenes. Do y'all think it's just a GAN thats been fed tons of logos that already exist? That seems unlikely–I can't imagine there are nearly enough logos for that.

36k miles on a 12 year old car seems super low. Seems like a great deal! Did you have to get it fixed up? I'm wondering why it only costed $2200.

The $$ they can get from anywhere else in industry given how hot research level ML experience is (and how scarce this talent is). I imagine the appeal of FAIR is much more about the academic freedom. But sure the $$ doesnt hurt.

I agree that 2500x48hrs is probably a reasonably cost to pay for these kind of sweet results. But it is a bit prohibitively expensive for an ML hobbyist to try to replicate in their own free time. I wonder if there is some way to do this w&
