Building HR software for dying on Mars?
Ammar Mian is a software engineer and the co-founder of startup health tech company Malla - and another former student of Oz's and Bradfield School of Computer Science! Many software engineers daydream about starting their own company one day, so we've got Ammar on the show this week to give us the goods. Is it still fun? Can you still get into flow? Are you still coding? Does Oz want to die on Mars? All this and more!

Jason Benn's path to ML engineering
Просмотров 683Месяц назад
Jason Benn is an ML engineer and truly the epitome of a lifelong learner (Cal Newport even wrote about Jason in one of his books on learning!). Oz and Charlie catch up with Jason on his current self-directed ML sabbatical - which he's corralled into a co-working cohort called mleclub.com (similar to Recurse Center but with an ML / AI focus). We discuss the tactical, strategic, and emotional sid...

    Brit is awesome- I totally relate to his quest to explore data compression- except for machine learning “knowledge.” Like- For an image recognized by a deep layered neural work- that image exists as a “constellation” as it were- of connected neurons. What are the critical connections and what are the trivial connections for a concept like “cat.” Or “dog.” Can the trivial ones be “shaved off” so to speak- what’s the minimal number of neurons needed for a given tool to recognize a concept? Think of human cave drawings that evolved into letters.

    Imagine a show that is both history and prophecy. That’s Connections. Burke “connects” seemingly unrelated inventions and histories events and uses the innovations that arise to prophesize how they will affect our future. In 1978, he correctly fortold of metadata and big banks; in 1985 he did no less than imagine a telework world and the interconnected network of social media. There are now 4 Connections shows and another one called The Day The Universe Changed, all absolutely worthy of your time.

    Great talk. I recently finished reading George Leonard's "Mastery". And, several points Oz brings up reminded me of passages from the book. Incidentally, Leonard sees the process from the lens of Aikido. It is fascinating. On the topic of Software Engineers "getting better" - how would one even measure that for themselves?

    Echoing everyone saying to continue with the podcast! 🚀Being able to look over shoulders and be introduced to ideas that move unknown-unknowns to known-unknowns is spreading seeds of experience that while isn't "learning" in the traditional, active sense, does create new doors of exploration that didn't exist previously.👀 It's the same with why storytelling has been such a powerful knowledge sharing tool for lifetimes, it's not "learning" itself but is a resource of knowledge that can then be picked up or not, but creates ripples nonetheless. Besides Khan Academy, I hadn't heard of any of the other shownote resources previously and even if I had, it's interesting to hear experienced devs give their insights/opinions of them.✨
