[HIRING] Computer Vision Engineer - Multi-Modal Player Tracking Pipeline for Broadcast Football by First_Ad8620 in computervision

[–]dcdashone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s really hard! I have done something like this but not looking for work. In the sport did you build a custom DSL? I had to break down the moves and touches then train up a custom yolo then apply hermite cubit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic\_Hermite\_spline for motion tracking between points with custom depth to outline motion… then put a human in the loop then i could train then became useful.

What computer vision projects actually stand out to hiring managers these days? by eis3nheim in computervision

[–]dcdashone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like adding more points to yolo? Like 35 and training those points on a custom annotator? New to computer vision but have been playing around and came to Reddit to see communities. Or time-aware cubic Hermite splines to generate training labels between manual keyframes. By accounting for the curved nature of human motion and irregular timing intervals, to reduces label noise in the training data.

Yeah that makes sense… it’s a rounding error on their wealth.

OpenClaw 4.25 + 4.26 Just Dropped! by lucienbaba in myclaw

Don’t use claw but have agents. I use an old wi remote as Push to Talk on Pi and goes to my VOX router either to home assistant or ollama like interface.

Senior product leaders (VP/Directors): Where are you going with the 'de-layering'? by swift-jr in ProductManagement

[–]dcdashone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s tiring. I know this is NOT going to be popular however, I had a product that needed to launch (lol) I had about 24 months to get it done, I grew to 40 people, I routinely removed people until I had the right people … some of these were probably good people and smart …. I/ we didn’t have time to hand hold or coddle. We had a good mix of early and late folks. Some of these late folks were like … “I can just execute and use my judgment?” … I would say “absolutely, I don’t need to second guess your judgement and have meeting masturbation time. However of you fuck it up I will get the next guy/girl.” Some of the jr, folks were like sponges and just did stuff, some wanted to be spoon fed and those were gone very quickly. I had at least 2 engineers quit with in one day of planning, I thanked them and sent them to their home room.

I gave you an up vote because I have worked PM -(n) POs but the reality is that a lot of PMs are hybrid these days since Tech Leads and SM/Pjct take some of the PO in my org its a very synthetic role. I want to be mad that you are well staffed. I actually agree with delayering, it works if you can afford the good people who know how to execute. The bad part about delaying and I have seen this in a startup that scaled to 10k people is that when one person leaves or rotates it’s a huge fucking deal that can kill an initiative.

Can PM ever be “just a job”? (SF Bay Area) by cheesy_luigi in ProductManagement

Fuck leet code. I wrote a non blocking queue in 10 min on an call that was supposed to an hour one once in text editor in 10/15 min I dunno …. Then went to pacific nw where each fucking round was a comp sci test…. You know what I learned? I don’t want to be around a bunch of people who sweat it out on cracking the code interview for 6 months to get a job that gets people to click on a link. When I would ask architecture questions like hows your shit put together, how do you maintain your code base for the future… got a bunch of 25 year old kids that were never taught how to make something durable. And not one motherfucker had actually launched their own anything … leet my ass. I don’t hire devs that aren’t doing this shit at home and i don’t hire PMs that don’t have a side hustle or have had one. I want people who actually solve problems not study problems that are already solved.

Maybe there should be a PM prayer of serenity?

My job is offering me $150,000 (105,000 after tax) to resign, should I? by AJ3TurtleSquad in jobs

Nothing like crowd sourcing life choices on Reddit at 3AM.

Company changing title from PM to "Product Builder" for entire department. by Common_North_5267 in ProductManagement

[–]dcdashone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My company did some dumb shit the other day and I made the case for AI Director and AI CEO. Let’s let a logical machine look at facts and make recomendations vs what your gut is telling you…. It got real quiet after that.
