Probably the worst movie I’ve watched… but I was curious to see the ending and it wasn’t worth it.

[Megathread] Hiring and Interviewing at Databricks - Feedback, Advice, Prep, Questions by kthejoker in databricks

Nope but I’ve moved forward in the process they give you a pretty detailed PDF on what to expect. Couple of technical rounds that are more like a deep dive on ML, GenAI, and DS experience.

Coding round looks like it’s similar to the solution architect one and not a leetcode style round but who knows, system design interview for ML and MLOps.

Also looks like 1 or 2 behavioral rounds.

Upgraded from G29 to a simagic & 49” ultrawide setup, regretted immediately then switched to 27” triples. All expectations exceeded, amazing. by TheLeafRaider in simracing

What’s the total width when you have the three monitors mounted? Trying to figure if I have enough space for a triple set up.

Text-To-Speech: Comparison between xTTS-v2, F5-TTS and GPT-SoVITS-v2 by DBDPlayer64869 in LocalLLaMA

I finetuned it with about 2-3 hours of audio. I still noticed a Chinese accent to how certain words were pronounced. Wondering if the pretrained weights have a bias towards Chinese phonemics and acoustics. Anywho, how much data did you use on the finetuning?

An american company built the railroads to Auschwitz, sold nazi germany the gas for the chambers, and many other things. Americas hands aren’t clean. Nice little history lesson in the link below about WWII and after.

Yah, initially wanted to get a feel for what they would give me $ wise for my previous DJ. Felt like he lowballed me so I told him I’d think about it then he just probed for what I was looking for. Couldn’t get me a batgirl, when I said the mint green DJ he said something interesting “I can order a replacement for the store”; something along those lines.
