ML bugs are so much trickier than bugs in traditional software because rather than getting an error, you get degraded performance (and it's not obvious a priori what ideal performance is).

So ML debugging works by continual sanity checking, e.g. comparing to various baselines.

Word of the day is ‘spuddle’ (17th century): to work ineffectively; to be extremely busy whilst achieving absolutely nothing.

I recommend looking at this if you're building recommender systems!

Virtual meetings are basically modern seances.

“Elizabeth are you here?”

“Make a sound if you can hear us.”

“Is anyone else with you?”

“We can’t see you, can you hear us?”

Over the years, I've learned a lot from @kgb1001001 - in this post he talks about how he sees design patterns as tropes that you see in good code

Python got static types & data classes, getting pattern matching

JS got static types

Java got lambdas, type inference, getting records

C# getting records, pattern matching

Ruby getting static types

Inevitably every language is converging to #Scala
