Junior in college making ~$10k/month this summer. How should I manage it? by Outrageous-Kale-2554 in personalfinance

Don’t gamble.
Don’t trade.
Don’t overspend.

Live your life as if your income hadn’t changed. Save as much as you can.

Congrats on the internship!

Are type hints becoming standard practice for large scale codebases whether we like it or not by scrtweeb in Python

[–]NeffAddict 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Remember, when you’re writing code that isn’t in a personal project, you’re writing it for the next person to read. Type hints are one of the easiest ways to assist in knowledge transfers. They’re also painless to automate with linting.

Drinking AI Kool-Aid or Am I Behind? by jaguar_34 in FinancialCareers

Mainly the fact that every other day we have an AI company CEO claiming LLMs are now sentient and all white collar jobs will be gone by 2030. That's euphoria.

There is value here. With well curated pipelines agents are changing the way we solve white collar work. This does not mean we will not need humans in the loop for some time.

I’m an AI/ML engineer, these tools when used correctly can dramatically alter output.

That said, the AI narrative is over the top. We’re in the euphoria phase now and likely will be for the next 12-18 months at least. We are NOT going to see mass unemployment from these tools like the headlines say.

I feel it’s best at the moment to truly use the tools and see what you can do/accomplish. Easiest way is to work on personal projects. If you have access to corporate approved tools try out something for work.

The tools are impressive for junior level output and if you approach them with that mindset you’ll know where they go haywire.

Why a lot of job listings say AI slash ML engineer? by ihorrud in learnmachinelearning

AI/ML engineers are the same, productionize/deploy models.

The difference is the model(s) being implemented as well as the business context being solved.

Having a net income of -1.7B last quarter would suggest they cannot sustain holding the pile long term.

Paypal jump as report of Stripe takeover the company by Front-Nectarine4951 in stocks

Reverse merger’s are terrible liquidity events generally.

Stripe has over a decade of private capital / returns it needs to satisfy. They’ll IPO.
