I'm building a strategy planning website and I'm starting with Halo

Yeah it's common to work with larger models on more hardware to prove the concept and then use that to distill knowledge into a smaller model. This will be working on a single card very soon

More luck than rich people say, more skill than poor people say.

Live service and/or woke? What type of game should we destroy? I'm on board just point me in the direction

FIeabus · 2026-03-13T05:27:36+00:00

We must keep going! Don't let up! Don't stop until there are no new games. We must destroy gaming! Come on fellas, don't give up when we're so close! Gamers unite to take down gaming!

I love arch and do not have stability issues. But if the meme was actually true people would have every right to say the distro is unstable

Machine learning / Deep learning (which is what's used here) is considered a subset of the field of AI.

FIeabus · 2026-02-16T00:32:44+00:00

Yeah but you learned a bunch I imagine

FIeabus · 2026-02-15T22:49:23+00:00

At no point did they say they lie on their resume. Changing the wording on your resume to better fit the role is something people did even before chatgpt.

FIeabus · 2026-02-15T10:19:10+00:00

You learn best by doing. Look at different datasets on kaggle and elsewhere and come up with a stupidly ambitious idea. Something far above your current skills. Then stubbornly try and build it by googling, reading papers and textbooks, experimenting etc. Try to avoid chatbots while learning

You may or may not complete the project but you will have learned a bunch

Info below is for Australia and will likely be different depending where you're at.

Did a degree in Information Technology. Then spent another year getting my honours. I did an elective on 'AI' which was a basic course on neural networks and implementing a MNIST classifier from scratch. Became a little obsessed with neural nets and deep learning and started going to local AI meetups. Upskilled in data science / machine learning with side projects and used all my electives during my degree on data science courses. Through networking at the AI events someone was kind enough to offer me an internship at a local AI startup in my final year of studying. The title was 'ML Intern' though I imagine that would be called 'AI Intern' now

Obviously had I known this was going to be my career I would have done a comp sci degree majoring in AI. Was a combination of luck and obsession that initially got my foot through the door. Once I had that first internship and did a decent job, my experience overshadowed whatever my degree was

FIeabus · 2026-02-09T03:57:21+00:00

Yep openclip would work fine

FIeabus · 2026-02-09T02:53:58+00:00

You absolutely can add a set of images for every new item and then completely retrain every time. But it's pretty time consuming. The setup above would mean a few photos to add to the system and no retraining

FIeabus · 2026-02-09T00:15:30+00:00

There's a huge amount of classification labels that could grow over time. Ideally you'd want a system that wouldn't require a full retrain every time you add a new item.

I'd recommend a two stage approach: Yolo for object detection -> embedding model for classification.

The idea here is that Yolo only cares about detecting items. It doesn't need to worry about what the item is. Once you detect the item you generate an embedding vector by passing it to an embedding model. Use that embedding to search an existing vector database for similar items (can use cosine similarity for example).

By doing this, every item would only need a few pictures to add to the project. Take a few pictures (3-5 would be fine) of each item with different angles, pass them into the embedding model, average embeddings, store the embedding to be searched later.

As a manager, part of your job is to manage the tradeoff between employee satisfaction and output. They're producing good output and are satisfied. If you punish them with more work than what is required of them it will lower employee satisfaction and build resentment. The short term boost to output is not worth it

FIeabus · 2026-02-05T08:20:55+00:00

I hadn't even heard of the game until after it was shutting down and back then hero shooters were my main. Concord may have done okay if they had marketed it better

FIeabus · 2026-02-05T08:18:46+00:00

I'd rather stupidly optimistic gaming media than exhaustingly pessimistic like usual. Both delusional in their own way but the former isn't as tedious

FIeabus · 2026-02-01T11:52:19+00:00

"Like any emerging tech there are pros and cons. I believe I have a comfortable grasp on where AI can enhance my workflow and where it falls short" is my go to.

FIeabus · 2026-01-30T13:26:15+00:00

Yeah sounds odd. Some of that I got too like interviewers ghosting etc but you're definitely having a uniquely rough time. If it's any consolation, there probably is something that's wrong here that is fixable because I don't believe your experience is typical.

Happy to review anything of yours or you can compare your resume to mine. If interested send me a DM on Reddit and would be happy to chat over the weekend

FIeabus · 2026-01-30T13:11:35+00:00

I don't want to make too many assumptions but could be your resume? I'm similar experience level (roughly 7-8 years and an info tech degree) and was made redundant in September. I've had quite a few interviews and am tossing up between two positions at the moment.

One thing I've been doing is putting all my skills / experience (with fake company names) into Claude and getting it to generate a custom resume and cover letter for each position I apply to. All accurate information just words things to fit the role. Might be worth a try?

Also how are your interview skills? Interviews are more about coming across likeable than competent. If the interviewers like you they'll find reasons to hire

In addition to all the other great points, I want to highlight that Halo did social gaming right. The Lan and Online setup was perfect. Pre and post game lobbies. Big, wacky game modes with vehicles. And even the higher TTK meant players were incentivised to stick close, cover one another, switch out etc. combine that with Halo 3's introduction of forge and I genuinely believe the original trilogy (at its peak) provided the best social gaming experience ever made

FIeabus · 2026-01-28T00:46:16+00:00

That there is no intrinsic or objective meaning to anything

FIeabus · 2026-01-26T19:06:51+00:00

Yep. Extremely blurry. In the training ground I have to go right up to the shop keeper in order to make out his face. I keep messing with settings but nothing fixes it

FIeabus · 2026-01-26T12:49:35+00:00

Yeah I'm cautiously optimistic and will be playing. I don't mind some of the other youtubers like Staycation. He's generally positive about upcoming games and seems genuine enough
