[The Full Stack @full_stack_dl]

Semantic Search Engine for Images: find images from a database using natural language descriptions.

Team: Sandhya Govindaraju, Utkarsh Vardhan, Gabriella Chiribau, Amit Kumar Sah

Really impressive monitoring setup too. Try it for yourself!

@Grady_Booch This was mine; I was about 14 and it confused me thoroughly. Did not touch assembler again until I was 20.

Developers, what side-project are you working on?

[Gabriela Chiribau @arylwen]

One needs a form of feedback. In school, we had tests and contests. Today, there are edX classes. The probability class kept my spirits high.
"If you didn't do calculus in 2 years or so..."
30 years, yet I remembered.
"It's been so long,
But it's all coming back to me now."

[Iso (math fool) @IsomorphicPhi]

How do you... study math and like... learn anything? Asking for a friend.

In all seriousness, how do you keep your spirit up when you self study amd keep hitting a wall every other step?

[Gabriela Chiribau @arylwen]

That's how I learned. Built an ubuntu machine with a 3090, docker and different stack components to understand end-to-end.
Even with a good math background, stats and "theory" were a pretty heavy lift.

[kirsten lum @kirsten_lum_]

Probably a popular opinion: The first course in an ML education should teach a basic end-to-end workflow (raw data to automation). It��s so much easier to learn math, stats and theory when they are pegged to the components of the overall system.

Elon Musk revealed the #TeslaBot today and I have #robotics thoughts.

Who here remembers Slackware Linux 3.5 setup from the 90s ???

I usually take it with a grain of salt. "X is definitely not all you need but check it out, it might be relevant" :)

[Max Welling @wellingmax]

Can we stop the “X is all you need�� meme in ML. It literally says to stop thinking about everything else, and that’s just counterproductive.

[Gabriela Chiribau @arylwen]

Pretty much :)

[AK @_akhaliq]

everyone on ML twitter right now

[Gabriela Chiribau @arylwen]

Pretty much

[Dr. Julie Gurner @drgurner]

After coaching a lot of very successful people, here's an unsexy truth:

A lot of success is learning to grind when it's boring.

Staying engaged, working, and seeing it through when it's "boring" is a skill. If you expect all building to be exciting, you'll never make it.

Among learners there are four defects with which the teacher must make himself acquainted. Some err in the multitude of their studies; some, in their fewness; some, in the feeling of ease with which they proceed; and some, in the readiness with which they stop. (BR, Xue Ji 10)

[Gabriela Chiribau @arylwen]

I only made it to the nationals through highschool however math competitions were also formative parts of my middle and highschool experience.

[Greg Brockman @gdb]

Math competitions like AMC, AIME, and the USAMO were formative parts of my middle- and high-school experience.

I never quite made it to the IMO, but our new neural network is gearing up to be a formidable competitor at each level of the math competition circuit:

[David Butler @DavidKButlerUoA]

I’ve never seen this geometric proof of the difference of two squares factorisation before and I love it.

[Gabriela Chiribau @arylwen]

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that someone in possession of an rtx3090, must be in want of #TensorFlow2.
I added tf2 support to #AmpliGraph and its hands-on intro to #KGE: link prediction, clustering, and #tensorboard projector data.

[Fermat's Library @fermatslibrary]

It's amazing that a simple idea, such as the slope of a tangent line could have so many incredible consequences.

Modern calculus was developed ~360 year ago.
