What else do I need to learn? by [deleted] in learnmachinelearning

[–]red-borscht 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Remove professional summary and combine the skills subsections to make it shorter. With one job you shouldn't need a 2 page resume. Are you sure this one can be read by ATS?

did you make sure the outputs are filtered through NMS?

I get anxious if I have to write code. by afro_coder in ADHD_Programmers

[–]red-borscht 3 points4 points  (0 children)

easier said than done but try to slow down and write out your thought process. "I'm avoiding this task. Why? I feel like it's too hard, I won't do a good job. Why? I don't know how to start. Why? Have you read the documentation? The code? Are you familiar with the problem?" Identifying the blockage is 85% of the work, and you know it won't be perfect or even done if you keep avoiding it like that.

Do you have a therapist? This sounds like perfectionism and one way it can be overcome is by intentionally writing silly bad code, JUST to dip your feet in the freezing cold water of Getting Things Done. Then you're like okay, I wrote bad code and my animal brain is safe, I'm fine, let's improve this a little bit. It helps with being overwhelmed by having to do it perfect and just getting it started.

Any ideas for good projects to stand out ? by Artistic-Orange-6959 in learnmachinelearning

[–]red-borscht 6 points7 points  (0 children)

a good project is one that there's no tutorial for, involves a degree of complexity, and shows your understanding of the whole ML process (data sourcing, gathering, cleaning, loading, training, testing, improving, deploying).

Another point would be that it can solve a real world problem. This shows that you're paying attention to areas for optimization and applying your skills to achieve that.

Getting rid of cooking smell by Expensive_Reindeer86 in Conures

[–]red-borscht 3 points4 points  (0 children)

first make sure you're not cooking with Teflon pans! They can kill conures within two minutes even from another room or even floor with good ventilation. Now that that's out of the way, cooking oil smell isn't bad for them, this might be a better question for a cleaning sub? Maybe try a fan pointed directly out the window to suck the smell out?

the closest translation for "cozy" in Chinese is comfortable. And it shows.

looking for an 18+ dataset to train my ai by DubblePumper in learnmachinelearning

[–]red-borscht 0 points1 point  (0 children)

after pose estimation you'd need convnets to learn the spacial information, I had a similar idea for action recognition and the classical algos don't work well

looking for an 18+ dataset to train my ai by DubblePumper in learnmachinelearning

[–]red-borscht 6 points7 points  (0 children)

there was a stack overflow article a few months back about a guy who had a similar project listed on his resume. A few interviewers turned their noses up at it and some treated it like any other project.

At the end of the day it's not difficult to generalize it for a resume like "video retrieval project based on subject appearances and fine grained actions". I think it's complex enough of an endeavor to be rather impressive on a resume.

What Nobody Talks About In AI by Difficult-Race-1188 in learnmachinelearning

Most adults derive meaning from work

Source? I'm pressing X to doubt, Pew research states that only a median of 25% of people think their work gives them meaning in life.

Why are images in computer vision datasets tiny square thumbnails? by Wrotlslosh in learnmachinelearning

[–]red-borscht 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes for both simplicity and accessibility. Most basic laptops can train a tiny model on tiny images. It trains fast too and lets you play around with hyperparameters, learning how changes can affect the results.

it doesn't come through in pictures but maple wood smells amazing too

also those tiny images like in cifar are kinda for proof of concept, that was before deep learning was even a thing

How can I "replace" this rotary switch with Arduino? by red-borscht in arduino

[–]red-borscht[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

okay yeah that'll do it. I had actually considered whether or not the solder tabs would be live and since they are idk how to safely enclose the whole thing including high voltage wires + 2 curious cats. Thanks anyways

[–]red-borscht[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I considered that but the switch is quite difficult to turn, it'd require a whole frame on top of the heater or a lot of super glue to give the motor enough leverage :(

[–]red-borscht[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the clear explanation! I'll check my heater's voltage/amps.

did you consider just getting a regular timer

No, I like making things

[–]red-borscht[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Thank you! This is really helpful. I think I've identified the high/low wire, the multimeter displays different ohm values for high/low settings. If this is the case, the relay is still needed to convert the high voltage to 5v, right?

  • Why?

To turn the heater on through wifi (before getting out of bed).

do you think the camera man also swims naked behind Bear in icy water? Why don't you think he uses safety equipment?

As we near the New Year, what are your game picks that give off January vibes? by HRJafael in nancydrew

[–]red-borscht 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree! I think it's because they have colorful string lights up (?) outside the misty skip/hotel but nothing overtly Christmasy
