I saw a youtube video of a single mother who job it was to cut out the ice from underneath the ships to create space to do the repairs. Apparently its a very dangerous job because you can easily end up frozen to the river if you're not

She's hardly the average person, is she? High IQ enough to get a job at Jane Street and then constantly swimming in these elite networks at Stanford, Jane Street and whatever that weird EA thing is supposed to be. If you do a BSc in Ma

As a publicly funded scientist there is nothing I find more frustrating than witnessing colleagues peddle bullshit to funding bodies and waste tax payers money, and more importantly waste opportunities for young scientists and the country t

Hey, I have been following your project for a while, because I'm kinda interested in progam synthesis. Anyway my question is, how scaleable is the search process itself? Is it a good fit for GPU clusters? I guess benchmarking of candid

Even as somebody trying to get a US VISA, I think it is a bad idea. Whatever tests you use, there will be many millions trying to learn for the test, thereby massively taxing the immigration system and making it harder for the more genuinel

What puzzles me the most about the current administration, is why are they dismantling US influence abroad? How do they profit from it?

A girl who started off at the same level as you, will appreciate what you have accomplished. A girl who grew up well off won't.

If you don't pick your lab/PI wisely you might end up stroking you PI's ego without accomplishing anything of value. Or you might end doing four years of work that ends up obsolete before you even graduate.

Huh? Their position in the market is much better than that of OpenAI and Co. Selling hardware and services is sure business. Training models is by contrast a risky business, and even if you attain SOTA, you cannot relax because your competi

It costs the equivalent of 2 years of cloud GPU H100s at current prices. Edit: Sorry fucked up my math. I wanted to do 40x52x4, $4/hr being the cloud compute price but that us actually $8300, so it is actually equivalent to about 4.5 m
