This is what I felt like when I was trying to implement Faster RCNN from scratch as a self learning project. ML is difficult. I don’t quite understand to this day how the pro’s truly think about it and how they *actually* debug.

Anyone in the Bay want to purchase my barely used Bambu X1C 3D printer? Thinking $1000. I’ll be in South Bay for a few weeks beginning Monday. I probably wouldn’t include the enclosure but could if you want it.

Don’t get me wrong, the Bay Area remains an unlivable hell hole but, against all odds, Santa Clara somehow has the best cafe in the nation.

It’s so cute that Palo Alto has nature preserves where they put children who can’t compete in math and coding olympiads out to pasture.

Does anyone know of a really good graph visualization software (open source)? Something that attempts to produce a visually pleasing and regular layout of connected nodes from an adjacency list.

Sega did it first

Are there any decent PC vendors that have AMD desktop workstations for < $2500? Debating if I should ship my old 5950x and 3090 workstation.

What's the best office chair for tall kings?

AR furniture preview is borderline useless. A feature that should be a shoe-in for the tech. AR really is dead. Materials look artificial and sizes are often very wrong.

If Seattle and Tokyo conceived in a love hotel, their baby would be named Toronto.

Someone had built an SO-100-based mobile household robot with elevator mechanism to lift the arms all the way to counter height. Does anyone remember the name of the project because I can't find it anywhere. I thought I had bookmarked it...

What’s better in 2025 for easily creating a dynamic simulated city (few blocks), with sidewalks populated by walking humans and streets with vehicles. Unity or Unreal?

Spent hours trying to debug a matrix math issue that was causing a mysterious x component to appear during pure forward motion. Claude looked at my logs, noted the drift was 35 degrees, and I suddenly realized some old code was pre-rotating everything by... exactly 35 degrees. 🤦‍♂️
