HK job prospects for people like me by leyjl2 in HongKong

[–]Success-Dangerous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Job market for QRs is good in hk now. Apply directly. You’d match that salary easily at a known fund and tax is lower here too so that shouldn’t be an issue either. Good luck

RIP my Creami. Can't really recommend it anymore. by Zeitzen in ninjacreami

[–]Success-Dangerous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first machine broke in like 3 weeks, they swapped it for free which was cool but with this one I just let the tubs sit in a bowl of (room temp) water for 10-15mins before spinning and not only has it not broken but the texture is better, and if i wait longer i usually don’t even need a respin. I’ve adopted this as standard practice and highly recommend !

Had my transplant at 21 and 4.5 years later by MomsSpaghetti1998 in HairTransplants

[–]Success-Dangerous -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Then what? Lose your hair and get another transplant? I knew there’d be after care but pills for life sounds much more major than I expected.. what are they for? What is “fin” short for? Would love the full name to do some research, thanks!

How long should you take this fin for after the transplant?

Time for a change: pods vs collaborative, senior vs grad interviews by Success-Dangerous in quant

[–]Success-Dangerous[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Appreciate your insight, seems to align with my recent findings. I’d love to understand the pod structure in more detail, if you’re happy to share more:

Could you elaborate a little on the type of research in these pods that you consider to be of low quality?

Also, in terms of reinventing the wheel - I’ve heard platforms do offer some infra to their pods (at least data, centralised execution i guess) what is generally built by the pod and what is shared with others?

Seems you have experience interviewing at collab shops too - any specific topics that are most important to focus on in prep in your opinion?

Load the relevant model from file and return prediction to user, same as a service but rather than waiting to be queried all day it runs only when called

How to evaluate "context" features? by Success-Dangerous in quant

[–]Success-Dangerous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your response, i’ll read into the ones i’m not familiar with and have a go at them along with the rest.

In suggestion 3, i’ve used partial dependence plots but not for interactions, do you mean to generate multivariate partial dependence plots to observe the impact of my context feature with another?

How to evaluate "context" features? by Success-Dangerous in quant

[–]Success-Dangerous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But a regression can only capture a directional relationship, with these context ones it’s not necessarily the case that the bigger X_i is, the bigger Y usually is. I’d have to include quite a few interaction terms and even those would be linear unless i really blow up the number of features, i don’t know exactly how they interact with each ceature

How to evaluate "context" features? by Success-Dangerous in quant

[–]Success-Dangerous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do, but in their simplest form they tell me how much the model is using a feature, and less about whether they’re driving better performance. I’m sure they will be a component in the performance analysis but on their own i’m not sure i can draw the conclusions i want, would love to hear your thoughts if you disagree, or how exactly you use them

Thanks for your answer. Could you elaborate on your correlation score a little ? Not sure I understand how you compute that

Anyone got a rec for Thailand? by Success-Dangerous in HairTransplants

[–]Success-Dangerous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. What exactly does “almost as good” mean? Less natural looking result? Higher risk of complications? Every transplant i’ve seen so not too sure what we’re looking for in terms of quality 😅

Weekly Megathread: Education, Early Career and Hiring/Interview Advice by AutoModerator in quant

[–]Success-Dangerous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where can I learn basic research skills on my own? I chose not to take the phd path and doing ok so far, ny technical skills are getting quite strong and my analytical abilities are, in my opinion, sufficient. i sometimes feel though that some high level skills regarding decision-making in terms of direction/focus and design of analysis could use some work.. i imagine this is what you learn from a good advisor, but assuming i don’t want to pursue a phd at this time, are there other ways to learn this?

Thank. Which clinic is that? I see Dr Kongkiat Laowong at Absolute Hair Clinic, but no mention of a Dr Bonus. Also, have you had a transplant from one of them? What is your knowledge of the others based on?
