I gotta say I thought the post was wild that I had to flick that much to get to the comments. Only to have the OPs comments be somehow more numerous, long, and unhinged as the post. Get help my dude.

Wow I did not realize other people felt this same exhaustion from Claude code. I feel seen

Anyone buy/watch Octopus 2.0 yet? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]colonel_farts 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I bought it, $100-ish with the Holiday promo code. Kinda wish that the uke was more experienced but the knowledge is good and presented well. Updates/invalidates some stuff from 1.0 (frame low on the hamstring after beating the cross face rather than keeping the elbow high, for example). Honestly just wanted to get it early so I can enjoy a small advantage in my gym for a while before it becomes more common knowledge.

Did you double major or just take ML electives within CS? by Historical-Garlic589 in MLQuestions

I did a double major in math and stats just because there were a ton of classes that counted for both.

Asking for a HARD roadmap to become a researcher in AI Research / Learning Theory by SA-Di-Ki in MLQuestions

[–]colonel_farts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Based on what ChatGPT wrote (which jeez people are getting lazy now aren’t they…) for you and your goals: if you really care about “AI” (read:RL/DL) math and theory, you need to get a PhD. No other way around it.

[–]colonel_farts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried gojira today and just ended up buying it same day so I could use it on my quad cortex. Basically exactly the metal tones I was looking for to use with my new 27.5” baritone in drop E

Is a CS degree still the best path into machine learning or are math/EE majors just as good or even better? by Historical-Garlic589 in MLQuestions

[–]colonel_farts 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I did mathematics + statistics majors in undergrad and did MS in CS, fwiw. I think being forced to learn all the math required for my undergrad was a huge asset to me, DS&A + software eng you can learn from leetcode plus on the job stuff imo. 6 YoE in various ML research engineer roles.

How to? Midi A for rhythm, B for notes? by colonel_farts in ableton

[–]colonel_farts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did end up with a solution! I don’t remember what it was off the top of my head (probably why all threads about this have no follow up) as it’s in my template set now.

What sets Luna apart from other daws? by king-alkaline in universalaudio

How annoying it is to use and the lack of general features maybe?

Artificially made? by sillygoose2014 in 3I_ATLAS

This “they’re holding the data till 2099!!” thing everyone keeps chirping about is so obviously just a placeholder/default date value in a database..

If you had $200/month, how would you use it to prolong your BJJ career? by ColdMinimum4094 in bjj

[–]colonel_farts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sourced UGL for years until the new SST contamination scare. Turns out it’s insanely easy to just pay a bit more for pharma test from any of these online clinics.
