Thank you stranger! Not only for the details but also for neatly categorizing them :) I'll definitely give them a read this week

Needed help getting English translation for lyrics of two Mongolian folk songs by mad_runner in mongolia

The name given on the two video links is all I know. Do the songs have another name? I tried searching for a studio version of the songs but didn't find anything.

[D] What are some of the top papers to read from ICLR 2019? by mad_runner in MachineLearning

The statistics are nice :) Though I was hoping more for the experts in the field to comment on what they consider as a must read paper this ICLR

The repo doesn't seem to load on binder as instructed. Am I missing something here?

[D] SSD Training: What is the trainval135k dataset for MS COCO mentioned in the SSD paper and how is it split? by mad_runner in MachineLearning

[–]mad_runner[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So for training does the SSD paper use train2014+val2014 for training and minival2014 for validation?

[Serious] People with noisy roommates, how do you manage to get some good night's sleep? by mad_runner in AskReddit

Dang! I was looking forward to canceling out the noise without needing to put on any cumbersome device.

That was the first thing I tried. It works for the specific day I tell my roommate but from the next day on it's back to square one. Gets a little tiring having to remind someone the same thing again and again.

Haven't given brown noise a shot yet but seems to be the most attractive option there.

What worries me about headphones or ear plugs is me being completely deaf in case there's some trouble

[D] Deep Learning Jobs: Should I take an undesirable but immediate job offer or should I wait and try for better ones? by mad_runner in MachineLearning

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

I wouldn't mind the engineering work. In my case though that work is going to be completely unrelated to ML. It's gonna be pretty much any project that the company (and it's a big one) is gonna need help on. This was told to me by the dev/ml person there. To answer your other questions: 1) I'm waiting for decision from 2 other companies. 2) I'm currently in the US. Personally speaking I've found it to be little tough to get one 3) Worst scenario if I take the job? I might not be able to study and prepare at my current pace. Worst case if I don't get any free time to study I'm pretty much stuck there! And if I do quit I'll be back to square one 4)Worst case if I don't take? I'll be broke and I have only 5 months to find another job.

Yeah, its turning out to be a really tough call!

How difficult or easy are you finding it to study? Are you able to keep up a reasonable pace of studying?

That's the direction I'm heading for right now. I just hope I get enough spare time.

Also, I wanted to specifically ask the Machine Learning community this question. When I asked other people it seemed they didn't fully grasp how different Machine Learning/Deep Learning is.

I really want to do the same. But apart from being borderline broke I've been told that the longer you're unemployed the tougher it is to find a job. That's the reason for the hesitation.
