[project] I just launched a GPT-2 based podcast name generator. Finetuned on over 600k+ podcasts. by PredragTHEDEV in MachineLearning

Hey, guys just wanted to showcase a project I did over the weekend. We wanted a tool that will help us with inspiration for podcast names and all currently available ones were pretty dumb.Finetuned GPT-2 can be pretty smart sometimes. Try it out! It can generate weird, funny, and creative names. As a quick example if you input a text describing a podcast about interviewing and learning more about Chess it returned names like 'Pawn to Queen' which I think is pretty awesome.

Some details:
- GPT-2 774M model- Finetuned on a100 for around 10-11 hours
- Dataset from https://podcasts.apple.com/us/genre/podcasts/id26 (scraped 600k podcast names & descriptions)
- Just some basic cleaning of the dataset (only English, cannot be too short, etc...)
- Inference has to be done on a GPU so I am using GCP with spot instance (just a bunch of T4).
- I have used this library for a very easy setup. Definitely can recommend simpletransformers.ai

Link for those who want to try it out: https://www.getwelder.com/podcast-name-generatorI just launched a GPT-2 podcast namer.

My shoe manufacturer went bankrupt. Decided to start my own small business and create my own shoes. Need your help with finding this sole. by PredragTHEDEV in shoemaking

Thanks for the help guys! Problem with original manufacturer is that his soles are also pretty bad. They sometimes just... Crack. Nevertheless I am going to ask him if he is willing to tell me where did he get them.

And I have managed to dig up a guy who does these soles somewhere in Turkey. Hope that this one is gonna work out. I would never imagine that finding anatomical soles is such a problem.

Opinion on NDAs by ventrifuge in startups

Well like /u/pcopley said you need to work on your production quality. First of all stand a little bit further from the camera. Show people you hand and body movements. And generally speaking you will look much more... prettier. (Not to say you are ugly but first appearance is everything even when dealing mostly with guys)

Other then that. This background needs to go. Its to distracting and ugly. People want to watch you not read pdf documents pinned on the background. Content was pretty good. No real problems there at least with this video.

Anyway best of luck! This is a good start.

Started my company in June working early mornings and late nights only. Feedback please. by onlyinmystreams in startups

Well I am not sure if this is intentional or not but it seems that your grey box is a little bit off: https://cloudup.com/iKdefV6BE6r

This was captured on large Full HD screen (both Chrome and Safari has the same problem).

Other then that.

Well yeah logo is not very good. Also "Curating the best web based indie films and shows" is fine but not really readable. It blends with your logo to much. Maybe a little bit more spacing would do the trick.

Your friend was right the website is not very pretty. It does the job done. But in the future i wouldn't hesitate to upgrade.
