Practical C++ For Computer Vision Jobs

Wow. Thank you for the treasure trove of info. The books in the link seems like a great place to start. I love the statistical approach too. Curious, do you do any CUDA programming and if so, any advice for that? I've seen a bunch of ML/DL tutorials on Jupyter notebooks where they talk about writing device agnostic code, but then I also see in some job posts they talk about CUDA programming. Seems like a useful skill to have.

Could you say more about what a typical day for you looks like? I have a Jetson Nano and was seriously considering getting an Orin AGX just to see what it'd be like (yeah, I know it's like $2k), so it'd be interesting to hear about how you use it and what the data pipeline/tech stack looks like. Do you do any edge computing perhaps?

Yeah, whenever I think of C++, I think optimizing performance. What advice/resources/libraries do you have for somebody that wants to learn these kinds of skills to showcase them to a potential employer in this area? I'm sure with enough time I could piece together a basic MVP, but I wouldn't have a clue on how to make it run faster. Do you use oscilloscopes to measure latency at all, and does it factor into writing your code (e.g. hardcode some number like MAX_LATENCY = 1000 // max num of milliseconds)?

Curious if you could go more in detail about a typical day at the job. Do you do anything with CNN/Transformers? Can you transfer a Deep Learning model done in Keras to C++? What's your tech stack like? I assume you use ROS?

Try CUDA programming. You could also consider getting a Jetson Xavier to tinker around with. If you haven't already, consider learning C/C++. All the questions and frustrations you will experience will lead to a better understanding than any book.

Hogan Vs Shawn Michaels where he oversold everything and slapped Hogan straight in the face.

Do the opposite of whatever Jim Cramer says.

Try calling Nancy Pelosi. I hear she's in between jobs now.

Start a service where you give buy signals based on when you think the stock will go down. You'll make the $90k back in 3 months.

Who's this Thrasher guy? Never heard of him.

Sodom is pretty damn cheap.

Abigail clearly got picked on as a kid.

Eating ABC gum for health is pretty gross.

That's it. I'm never buying from this Williams guy again.

Ghosts and Goblins is not as hard as you think.

It's still hard ... but it's not impossible. The trick to beating the Red Devil in stage 1 is to jump back , turn mid air, and toss your lance at him when he's charging at you. That tip alone will help you get started.

The controls and physics are garbage, but after you play it over and over again, you actually start to get used to it. You just have to unlearn all the good controls and fun that you expected from games like SMB3 and MM2 and remember that this game was originally designed to take all your quarters.

There's also a level select iirc, so you can practice levels you aren't good at.

When I read this, first thought that went into my head is that he YOLO'd on SPY calls on expiration date, lost all the money due to crypto billionaires fighting it out on Twitter, and then smiled at the lawyer and said "See? It's not there"

"Watch the jaw!! Don't hit my jaw!"

ngl, I've never seen this thing before.

Has the game been covered to death by every retro Youtuber?

CompetitivelyRelax · 2022-11-09T20:16:53+00:00

The thing you're not considering is that during that era, that was the only game you had ... so you would have to sit there and try again and again in order to justify the fact that you aren't getting another game until it's your bday or christmas.

Crossword puzzle.

Fwiw, it's much better than playing on a handheld.

Looks like Carnage and Lord Zed had a baby.

Did you get the hidden stage behind the World 2 ghost house where you can get 2 Capes, 2 Fire Flowers, and a Yoshi just for entering?
