Thanks for putting so much time and effort into this. This is definitely not "Yet-another-intro-to-ML".

Which particular troubling event related to India are you referring to?

Not events, but several trends and crises. Two that personally concern me are the looming water crisis and pollution: I would love to have more water security and be able to breathe cleaner air. I can put up with the haphazard electric supply and the abysmal transport infrastructure. I don't have to bother about such fancy things like the substandard educational system or the endemic criminalization of politics.

But perhaps above all, (a) the dysfunctional governance system that is incapable of doing anything about any of this, and (b) the gradual descent of the society into a more regressive state.

Interesting. What is your training objective in deciding which view of the room would be the most appealing? Also, are you looking into generative models for creating new views from different angles based on existing views?

Our users have manually done a lot of the tasks we want to eventually do automatically, which effectively becomes data annotations for us to train on.

Same goes for the audience. I heard one shouting "Save us Elon!". Where do they get these people from?

Maybe it doesn't teach anything new, but it does act as a refresher and makes you go back to Deep Work. I had almost completely forgotten about it and my work schedule was full of tab switching and short breaks. After going through the book, I started using Toggl and minding my time.

But don't they earn through ads? Like other news websites.

The link is in the description of the projects.

This is awesome. Almost everytime I've to launch an instance for a new app or something, I end up googling "aws ec2 instances", "ec2 pricing" etc.

Exactly. If you're a ML person, you must be working with Linux in most cases. And in such case, you need to be familiar with the types of permissions, cause that's relevant even during the installation of various libraries, doing ssh etc.

Spot instances cost way cheaper. The only downside is you need to create an AMI everytime before termination. But, also, AWS g2 has NVIDIA Grid K50 with 4GB memory, so it's not very good with performance.

The AMI creation is only needed if you store data on the machines, which you shouldn't do anyway, not even with on-demand ones.

You should always try to keep the instances stateless and store any data outside the instances, such as on S3 or EFS.
