More like a generalist who also happened to be one of the greatest. You can read his book "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!" It adds some characteristic to his flamboyant personality.

It seems 2020-2022 was boom for tech industry. Now the rate is going backing to pre-2020 which shows it was already in decline! That is quite surprising.

If you can formulate your problem in the sense of classical planning problem, there are different sets of planners that can solve the problem. These methods are explainable. Some of them even give the optimal solution to your problem if you

There is some serious flaw with software people (all stakeholders). It's like they are addicted to "staying relevant." Most of the time people don't need new features. Why isn't it being drilled over to the project

Do you have refereneces to NeRF papers that can directly compute the field in the latent code? Because it NeRF based methods are essentially performing solving the rendering equation to learn the mapping, what could be alternative equation

Yes! That is why deliberate practice requires some mentors or guiding factor. It's really hard to invest in deliberate pratice and most of us overlook it! When practicing quality > quantity. I gave up a lot of hobbies because I didn

I have one suggestion! Try to find one thing you are deeply interested since your childhood. It means that you have some subconscious goals you want to achieve. Now invest all your time on it, no matter how hard it is. It will be very rewar

Thank you for writing it. I have been feeling something similar. The ability to truly understand requires the ability to know few terms and what they mean. I thought it was only me who felt it like so. Most of my friends who venture on crea

It gives me hope. I am on same position as OP. However, I have decided to sell my soul to Graphics. I mean literally and figuratively. I see there are only few people who can do graphics compared to other field. It is quite a niche to work

On the flip side, I had the opposite experience. With Linux it was just the matter of compiling from the source. And most of the time, it would just compile without any issue. With windows, I needed to download MSVC and the whole studio and

This puzzle is so cool because it revolves around casual graphs in classical planning problem! One can use heuristics based search to come up with optimal solutions. I really like this innovative approach to the design. However, one edge fr

I switched to a split keyboard. Went from 8 wpm to 30 wpm in 9 days!!! It's doable. I can work at this speed. I had 70 WPM. But I believe I will gradually reach better speed. However, the gains have been huge for me! I can finally type

I haven't started yet and I am already tired of Computer Vision and pace of catching up in the field. I am saying so as I am working towards my Master's thesis. The field evolves faster than I thought. It is so quick and nothing m

Exactly (esp for ML/Graphics/Vision). However, I cannot say for other fields. That is why it is necessary to keep revising these fundamentals. I always plan to do it, but end up doing something else. >.< If anyone has idea o
