Doesn't university math have tutorials and colloquiums? If you go to MIT opencourseware and look at the math and applied math courses tutorials are a big part. They're done in class to guarantee some minimal understanding. I think

That's the first thing that my daughter was taught at RSM when she went in for 5th grade math - Algebra. They also start you with geometry in the 6th grade. I think they start Algebra a lot younger actually - maybe 2nd or 3rd grade. Wh

Different tech has different needs. I can see it being really great with server side distributed systems. I don’t really see it having any benefit for running stuff in resource constrained single purpose environments

Lol. Reminded me of this - https://youtu.be/cfTIjuW6SWM Fwiw - I am a kubernetes fan. Just not in cars.

Yikes - hopefully one of the mutant insects doesn’t escape. Having an insect live 20% longer as a species could significantly increase their dominance.

That's not entirely true. You may not live in SF but only work in SF. In this situation you have no say in SF government because your voting rights are based on where you stay and not where you work. Maybe there needs to be a way to be

I don’t know about the foreign persons ;) - being a naturalized citizen there are plenty of foreign citizens the wife and me know. They pay decently though but not big tech level pay. You definitely can’t answer the what you’re working on q

That's why posted it. Most people ignore them but they do have good opportunities and generally don't have issues with ageism that exists. They are very invested in tech though. Mostly devices and embedded systems from what I know

Why - if I may ask? What’s wrong with pointing out potential employers?

If you are a US citizen try defense companies. Edit: I should have explained my reasoning. They have a much smaller eligible applicant pool - US citizens who are eligible for security clearance. Because of this they’re continuously looking

That might be just signal boosting, no? I mean all those people are on each others podcasts often and also have a large number of common guests. So yeah - YT thinks they’re all into the same thing but I’ve never heard Huberman get into poli

The problem is one of perception and human nature. You will eventually reduce your economy because of an outflow of business and human capital out of where this is happening. It’s how food deserts in America happen. No one wants to be in pl

Everyone uses AI today directly or indirectly. All search engines and possibly stackoverflow and Reddit will start supporting LLMs. Unless you never use these in your business you will be using AI.

I would hazard that any country with a declining population will aggressively adopt LLMs because it gives their leaner workforce more efficiency.

Racist much? How about targeting Europe that continues to buy Russian gas?

You need a decent sized team to run an on premise k8s infra. If you’re in the cloud use a managed k8s. It’s not for everyone in that I agree with the point the author makes. But if you have multiple teams doing app development k8s can be re

I find Peterson to be an insufferable coot. Musk is obviously more dynamic.

Not sure why you were downvoted. You’re kind of right about the assumption. Most folks who I know opt for homeschooling did so for religious reasons. I’m unsure if there are others. So, yes there’s assumptions built in. It’s just that I’m t

Why would you have that happen? Serious question. Isn’t that putting kids in an echo chamber and restricting their access to friends?

by gautamdivgi 4y ago
Elementary school is generally a great time for kids to make friends and generally goof off. I have a 2nd grader and 6th graders. Both really happy and it’s public school. 6th grader will head to jr high (we do k-6 elementary) so have to se

I think that’s the downside of raising interest rates. Obviously I’m no economist, but if rates are high and I’ve already got a home I will not move. If people don’t move inventory is low and needs to be built. High interest rates probably

Yes. I know, I work for a telco and have worked with central office switches and telco edge clouds. I know what goes into designing a data center to maintain 5 9’s availability. I don’t think it’s a level of complexity most companies need t

I’m not new gen. I’ve worked in telcos providing 5 9’s infra availability. A datacenter is not just servers. There is a whole host of civil, mechanical and electrical engineering that plays into it. Edit: also OSHA rules, cable splicing, ho

Do you need people in the colo to wire stuff up or is that handled by the colo folks?

by gautamdivgi 4y ago
Why not just run IaaS on the cloud? Maintaining a datacenter is expensive. Now I’m not sure if there are companies that provide management of actual physical infrastructure - battery backup, generator, cabling, certifications of premises et

I hate to say this but you were probably an unfortunate bait for a labor certification of an existing employee on an h1b visa. That is generally the only reason companies will stick to the bscs requirement. Normally if you have requisite ex

Isn’t most of the mathematics of AI old, as in really old? Regression, both linear and logistic are from the mid 1800s to early 1900s. Neural networks, at least the basics are from around 1950. What has really changed is the engineering, th

I agree. I don’t get the hatred for jira. I mean don’t complicate its usage. It’s a pretty awesome tool. It’s simple. Yeah, there’s some clicking but on the whole that’s on the person owning the project to customize. I don’t mind bitbucket

School districts are connected to housing. As long as schools are “locally funded”, you will always have a rush for houses in the better schools. The problem with housing is lack of public transport as well. You could get houses farther awa
