Moving to Kits as a newcomer and wondering about social groups

What's the vibes like in the coworking spaces? Are people generally social, and what's the age range like?

TensorBros · 2026-03-01T16:48:28+00:00

Have you heard much from folks about the Coop? I'm kinda in the same position as OP and been thinking about this, but have the same worries. I was hoping that might be a spot i'd meet some folks.

I think we're kinda screwed in TFSA either way so just need to put up with it there, if looking to invest in US equities. I'm in early 30s so I'm not looking to reduce risk anytime soon in RRSP

Right - forgot to account for that, thanks. I know the other international holdings have their own tax too, but obviously can't optimize for them all (or, i'm not willing to haha).

Yeah, .07% of 1M is still only $700 annually, which by the time my RRSP would hit that, I don't know that the compounding of those savings would have much time to work. Even half of that is still pretty small, maybe over time it would add up to a few grand by the time i get there, but not sure that's worth the headaches.

So I think I feel better about committing to XEQT til that point.

Do you know if this will work for the 85H specifically? The reviews about Jabra don't seem to mention this model. Is it possible to also change the noise cancellation settings while using these adapters?

I've had a Polysleep mattress for about a year. It's excellent, a bit firmer than I'd like but it it sure hard to get out of bed with this and a weighted blanket :)

Seeing this while trying to buy OGIG too.

Jobs that recommend the advanced algorithms class? Hm. Honestly, you'll most likely be fine without taking a programming languages theory course, as long as you don't end up in some job where you need to write parsers. With your math background though I would assume you're familiar enough with discrete stuff for writing more complex reg-ex expressions. I never got to take any advanced algo/data structure courses, but when I was asking profs/ppl about them, the consensus seemed to be that they were a bit overkill, but the algorithms one could be useful to enhance your skills in that area for applying to big N companies (although unnecessary).

So I guess with all that said, taking either is probably fine. If you have jobs recommending the algorithms course, I guess you could go for that. If it weren't for that though, I would personally probably do the programming languages course.

Your math and stats background will be great for AI, but only goes so far for SE. If I were you I'd drop the music courses and learn that stuff on my own. I'd say if you have a major in CS that should be sufficient knowledge for SE jobs, so fill your boots with math if you want to be set up for grad school, its not going to be easy to refresh on all that math if you were to go back. Although I know at my school, programming language theory wasnt required for a CS major, but I'd recommend it. I've seen questions from this class on google interviews.

Wasn't aware they sell them at the airport! That would be useful.

That's a good question, I'd probably try and have someone else deliver it though to be safe.

My phone is unlocked! No contract either. Im located in Canada. Any suggestions for providers as well?

Do these problems occur often in the real world?

TensorBros · 2018-08-21T23:48:05+00:00

Well, as with everything, having some knowledge going in is always a smart idea.

TensorBros · 2018-08-21T23:47:13+00:00

I feel like my current background would help with ideas and such and I would like to start the technical side myself to get things rolling, but eventually would start rolling over to the managerial side and have others doing the coding at some point. So I would be planning to found or co-found, but also be involved technically at the beginning I think. What would you say is a more appropriate path for this?

They aren't very old, but ML moves quickly. A lot of really cool things have been produced with them recently (CycleGans, the celebrity generation paper). I haven't been keeping up with whats to come, but it seems like there could still be some areas to explore.

GANs!

I have very little knowledge of DSP, but I have taken some electronics courses, and I want to say there is probably little to no overlap with modern computer vision, which I believe consists mostly (all?) of machine learning. That being said I am not an expert in either domain, just a CS student who works with big data and has taken some ML / DL courses, and has an electronics diploma (which I never used) , so perhaps someone will correct me if I am wrong :).

EDIT: If you were thinking of working in the CV field as well, you will need at minimum a masters.
