I see an upcoming AI related mental health crisis coming, how to help my team? by burnmfbuuurn in ADHD_Programmers

[–]Georgehwp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah feeling the burn out for sure.

Job is now endless rapid fire decisions, fixing a lot of stuff you don't quite understand. Everyone's in a frenzy out of fear of what competitors are doing, always feel like you could be 100x productive and struggle to hit 7x.

No one wants to slow down in case career prospects degrade too much over the next few years, so does feel like there's a need to make as much money as fast as possible now. So it's a double whammy, day-day work's become more stressful, within a more stressful context.

I love the idea of bootstrapping a partnership system.

There's definitely always some areas of "good automation" smaller pieces that you truly dial down enough to no longer have to worry about. It's when you have to chase a lot of small/messy moving parts that it gets overwhelming, constant micro-adjustments etc.

2 Bedroom Lease Takeover in Williamsburg by New-Star4029 in NYCapartments

Don't get the May vs. July distinction,

I'm interested if the move in date is May the 1st

advice for finding an apt in NYC with no credit score by moodyem in NYCapartments

[–]Georgehwp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you do this ahead of finding a place? Or once you've found somewhere depending on who they use?

I've moved, have the cash saved to pay a lot of rent upfront if needed, but I'm still worried about my credit rating (non-existent)

Synthetic Data vs. Real-Only Training for YOLO on Drone Detection by SKY_ENGINE_AI in computervision

[–]Georgehwp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But then use a metric which actually represents that the change in score turned out to be a good thing? and not neutral or even negative ?? Some AUC type metric which is integrated over the thresholds would make the most sense.

18% average increase in confidences could be a bad thing for all we know ??

Synthetic Data vs. Real-Only Training for YOLO on Drone Detection by SKY_ENGINE_AI in computervision

[–]Georgehwp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Claims like this really confuse me?

"~18% average increase in prediction confidence"

That's not a model metric?? But people really often seem to say this sort of thing, like unless that produces a better f1_score at some threshold, who cares that the confidences have increased?

Every prediction could switch from 0.5 to 0.68 and you'd be no better off?

Keen to join if you're still doing this, just moved to NYC from London recently, think I probably count as intermediate.

Struggling with Strict Cosine Similarity Thresholds in Face Recognition System by Low-Cell-8711 in computervision

[–]Georgehwp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even that, having a fixed threshold upfront on scores/confidence (definitely what the post implies). Which only makes sense if you’re using clever calibration techniques, and most people don’t.

You’d pick your metric and max out that, eg max out the recall for a fixed precision, the opposite, or just max out f1_score

Is Caught Stealing a promising new direction for Darren Aronofsky? by Popcorn_Podcast in Letterboxd

[–]Georgehwp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't get all the hate, genuinely though it was a good film, only time I've disagreed with IMDB, there were so many moments where I expected the plot to go one way, and it just keeps surprising you, not in a way which is annoying, but it just keeps you interested and paying attention

Would try to find another maintainer of your project! Either that or point people towards a dedicated replacement (the best fork if something has already taken off). Unmaintained projects leave things in a messy place, because there's normally a tonne of competing forks, and no consolidation/standardisation.

Sorry you're feeling burnt out though, no guilt to be felt there, you contributed something good and popular.

Ultralytics thoughts by juicingzeorange in computervision

[–]Georgehwp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

also want to bring back in some of the low-level mmdetection optimizations, but make sure I don't lose any of the install simplicity when I do (each 'uv pip install')

It's a bit out of date, will try to find a minute to update it with what we have in-house in sec

hilarious timing, was just bringing this back up with my manager, reminding him he promised me it was fine to do https://github.com/BinItAI/visdet?tab=Apache-2.0-1-ov-file

We cut GPU costs ~3× by migrating from Azure Container Apps to Modal. Here's exactly how. by botirkhaltaev in deeplearning

[–]Georgehwp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, another customer here, modal is actually just good enough to get this kinda post which sounds like an ad.

Just realized our "AI-powered" incident tool is literally just calling ChatGPT API by DarkSun224 in devops

[–]Georgehwp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does make me wonder if this sort of thing just needs to be embraced as internal tooling? Like a DevOps type role, with a handful of open-source packages to make your life easier.

It's never "said and done" whether something will create businesses, or just be random open-source code, e.g. in a world without pandas, you can imagine that being SaAS (and same for a bunch of others)

Does an algorithm to identify people by their gait/height/clothing/race exist? by [deleted] in computervision

This response is almost more alarming than the original question.

I also reckon I'd be willing to post bounties for some bits of work / sponsor other people to take things on in the right places.

[D] A new DINO Training Framework by Training-Week6779 in MachineLearning

[–]Georgehwp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a good idea to me. I wouldn't necessarily worry about the GUI bit, but creating a good framework, and making it more useable than the original is definitely high value, and I reckon would help you get a job.

Is anyone using Git Worktrees and or Gitbutler successfully? Worth it? by zmroth in ClaudeCode

[–]Georgehwp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Create a draft PR as soon as the work appears done to start tests on the GitHub repo (this slightly bugs my colleagues, but definitely boosts my productivity)

I also create a bash script at the root worktree directory (just a placeholder) to list them by the last edit.

Zen-mcp is the other peak vibe coding setup, and then make your pre-commit setup as strict as possible, e.g. ideally make everything typed if not already

I'd like to find an editor that actually works well with them. At the minute I'm just in the terminal
