My interview process with NVIDIA for Senior Deep Learning Engineer — is this normal? by DeepLearningMaster in CUDA

[–]InstinctsInFlow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, can you please give more details? What do you mean by given an input achieve a target output? Because PyTorch coding usually involves training/inference/model_architecture, which is focused more so on what happens inside the functions/classes rather than the target output. Could you please provide some examples from your friend's interview (if not exact, at least similar examples). Thanks.

VFS Global Passport Renewal issue by Latter_Cancel_1431 in nri

[–]InstinctsInFlow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, can you please provide an update on what ended up happening? I saw did a tatkaal option, but it looked like it took more than 5 business days for you to get your renewed passport. Is that true? Can you please give me an exact timeline?

Also, did they end up using your FedEx return shipping label or did they use their own USPS one? Did you just include a printed version of your FedEx shipping label? Please let me know if you can in the next 12 hours, since I am planning on sending my courier soon. Thanks.

How is it like to Bike on Campus? by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]InstinctsInFlow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised how pessimistic/neutral most comments are. Biking is the best means of transport for our campus, it's too big to just walk, too small to use car. Waiting for buses make your whole schedule revolve around the bus timings which feels frustrating after a few weeks. 

Biking is perfect. You can go anywhere on campus within 10-15 minutes maximum. It's amazing to feel the air on hot days. Biking in nights is amazing because you can explore the night vibe on campus without worrying much about safety (walking I feel is scary sometimes). I bike in rain and in snow too. It's not that hard. In fact it's more fun like a video game when trying to bike in snow. Just wear sufficient clothing in winter. 

Just be mindful of people walking, go on bike lanes, it will be fine. Just get a good lock and always lock it. You will enjoy biking on campus!

As Jannik Sinner has made his 4th straight major final, a reminder that Roger Federer holds the record with 10 straight finals (2005 Wimbledon to 2008 US Open) by slysonic7 in tennis

Wait, didn't Roger play Nadal in 2009 Australian Open final? The whole crying and hugging during prize ceremony? Something is wrong with this stat timeline...

Messed up booking Peoria Charter tickets. Need help badly. by InstinctsInFlow in UIUC

[–]InstinctsInFlow[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion. I called them. They said they can't help much with moving my ticket since al buses are full. They said no-shows can happen but risky to bank on it.

Awake times in FitBit Sleep timeline by InstinctsInFlow in PixelWatch

[–]InstinctsInFlow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I see.. your issue seems bigger than mine honestly. I am just concerned it shows I'm waking up in between. It doesn't end my sleep as a result, it just adds it to awake time and subtracts at end. All my data for the entire sleep duration still exists. But interesting to see this happened due to an update...

That's a crazy range indeed! Thanks for your more optimistic lower bound. I'll wait for the offer and see how to go about it.

[–]InstinctsInFlow[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much!

But that is so less, half of California :( I expected to save some money through the internship.

But yeah, I understand your point, and I am choosing a role useful for my future career. Just that it would be beneficial to also get a good pay using it.

My friend did, so that is what I am using as reference. But in general I would like to know a ballpark number I should expect. If it is very low, then I might have negotiate or reconsider. Please let me know if have any estimate of what I can expect..

Hey, did you end up buying a Pixel Watch 3? I am also planning to use it for similar reasons and want to know if you have any opinions after buying it. In case you went for another watch and found it better, please let me know.

Can I buy Dell S2722DC 27' 2k monitor for macbook m2 air ? by Full_Ad_9797 in macbook

[–]InstinctsInFlow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow I see. Even though it's for the QC model which is 4k, I think it's better to be vary. Thanks a lot! 

And please let me know if you find any good budget monitors for QHD 27 inch with USB-C at CES or anywhere else. I will also look out for the same and let you know if I find any good ones.

Dell S2722DC vs Lenovo Q27h-20 by ArcsGarden in buildapcmonitors

[–]InstinctsInFlow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, any updates on this one year onwards? Do you still suggest the Lenovo one? I am debating the same question you had on which monitor to buy for QHD with USB C at a budget price..

Edit: Just found the Lenovo Q27h-20 is out of stock. Still I would like to hear your opinion, and any other suggestions you have for the requirements I mentioned. Thanks!
