When developing a new ML system, it's best to move to structured code (in a repo with the appropriate file organization, as opposed to throwaway jupyter notebooks) as soon as possible.

Lately, I've found it easier to focus in the evenings, after the intended work hours. It's almost as if the pressure of making most of the day early in the day ends up being a psychological hinderance to getting the best work out.

Currently navigating a tricky situation - collaborating with another Applied Scientist on an ML Modeling project. What's tricky?
1. Both of us are new to the team, the proprietary data, and the codebase.
2. I haven't built production grade ML Models previously.

"Finding security in mediocrity is an exhausting process. You can work only so many hours, fret only so much. Being a slightly faster coder is insufficient. You're always looking over your shoulder, always trying to be a little less mediocre than the guy next to you. It wears you out." - Linchpin
