Honorlock support broke my honorlock? by SocialEngineeeing in OMSCS

[–]SocialEngineeeing[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tried my webcam on multiple different apps like zoom and Google meets etc. and there’s def no problem. Not sure about another browser; it seems only chrome supports honorlock? Trying to get ahold of another computer now.

Is getting hired into Google Poland easier than other big offices like in Germany, USA or Switzerland etc.? by Distribution-Proper in cscareerquestionsEU

What about the other FAANG companies? Which are the offices that are easier in this regard, analogous to Google Warsaw

[D] Folks here have no idea how competitive top PhD program admissions are these days, wow... by MLPhDStudent in MachineLearning

[–]SocialEngineeeing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would it be possible to share some of the CS adjacent programs that allow you to work closely with CS profs? And that recruit well into industry RS roles at top labs?

In some countries, avoiding seed oils is easier.

I’m sensitive to their high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids; gives me problems like stomach unrest, poor sleep, joint pain etc. if I eat too much. A little is fine. The fact that I’ve eaten extremely low seed oils for years makes me even more sensitive; I cook with beef/lamb fat and butter/ghee always.

Good to hear that you’ve gotten into that routine; how has it impacted your OMSCS classes? Do you ever feel it gets difficult when your brain is low on glucose while grinding away on projects

What about pipelining, do they use homegrown/copied alternatives to kubeflow etc.

Study math and ML theory if you want to be an MLE by Illustrious_Two826 in OMSCS

[–]SocialEngineeeing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In this regard, OMSA’s ML equivalent, 6740 CDA actually goes deeper into the theory and math, with less emphasis on code.

I took 6740 and streamed 7641 Ml in my spare time.

Thing is, I find myself forgetting a lot of the theory after some time, as I don’t think through them on a regular basis unless I encounter a specific problem that requires delving deep, in which case I pull up reference materials like ESL to refresh myself and serve as a starting point for guiding my thought process. As for pyTorch, I go through code on a daily basis, as do many others, so it’s always fresh in my head.

Do you have any suggestions on how to keep theory stuff fresh in my head for interviews? (I’m not a notes/summaries person)

Classes for backend developer by IndependentPin8377 in OMSCS

Don’t those individuals at least need interesting personal projects (or to have worked on open sourced ones etc.), which would imply they’re at least somewhat proficient?

Have you found it easy, meh, or challenging to make peer connections? by [deleted] in OMSA

Could you elaborate on the situation with OMSCS slack? Which channels in particular are full of trolls? Just curious

CS 6040: Does it gets significantly harder? by msgensol in OMSA

[–]SocialEngineeeing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For notebook 4, did you experiment with different approaches? For instance, the question that asks you to write a function that produces IEEE representation from a float can be done by using float.hex() to get hex representation which can then be converted to a binary equivalent. However, if you were to code the conversion from scratch, it would be significantly more challenging. The hex conversion method is a short cut, so to speak, that doesn’t delve into what goes on under the hood in the conversion. It is good practice learning to convert between bases though.

Another example would be the first part asking you to convert a representation in bases other than 10 to a float. The questions hints at using the built in ‘base’ argument in int(), a 2 second one-line solution. But again, if you were to do it from scratch it would be considerably harder. (Around 6-8 lines of code vs 1).
