The top laptop here has served as my reliable backup since 2015 (got new in 2012) and will now once again step in as a replacement for yet another dead successor (bottom). This thing has filled in for 6 dead laptops of mine and others' over the years. Insane

When you read a job description from a Big Tech company requiring production experience in deep learning and transformers...🙄🙄 I guess they are hoping BERT's authors will apply 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

First big in-lab data collection day in over 2 years; I forgot how tiring but rewarding it is to gather your own data in a lab setting #research #AcademicTwitter

Reminder to my ML colleagues. @arxiv is not @github. Don't submit drafts to arXiv; you are wasting your colleagues' time. Submit when you have a final version ready for the research community to read and cite. Please enforce this rule on your students, too.

Frustrating that Ontario pays lip service to "being green", and then proposes projects like this that both encourage low-density transportation in the long term (of people and of goods), and will also produce substantial near-term carbon emissions #onpoli thestar.com/business/2021/…

Day 1 of learning about coding #iOS apps using #SwiftLang was a success! Of course this is just a publicly available demo 😅 but a start is a start! #congratslikeim5

Explaining programming to a 6-year-old: 1. You have something you want to do. 2. You write code to do it. 3. The code doesn't work. 4. You fix the mistakes. 5. When the program works, you realize your idea was wrong. 6. You fix the idea. 7. Goto 2.

Very cute! Except the goal of the robot here is to generalize, whereas the goal of the human here is (most likely) to personalize 😜

It’s well known that neural networks model correlation and not causation. Recently, I’ve found it helpful to think about NN blocks as literal correlations of correlations of correlations … (incl. dense, norm, nonlin, conv, softmax, transformer, LMs, GANs, …) 🧵 1/20
