Credit analyst - consumer and B2B. Trying to learn and grow my way into a private credit / consumer credit fund. Various other interests will also apply.
"Challenges in high-cog roles" - wow.
I truly believe, more than anything else, race science is and always has been the core fixation of the global fascist and reactionary project.

In 2016 Hinton predicted that AI would replace all radiologists in five years. Ten years later, why hasn't it happened? This post is a great explainer.

AI isn't replacing radiologists
Radiology combines digital images, clear benchmarks, and repeatable tasks. But demand for human radiologists is at an all-time high.

What are the odds of getting a perfect bracket this year if you pick "optimally" according to @kenpom.com
9.8 billion to 1
This assumes that the kenpom model has the "true" probabilities.
This is far less than the oft-quoted and silly 2^63, or 1 in 9.3 quintillion number.

Hey, @nytimes.com, is the Department of Justice hounding the political critics of Elon Musk at the request of hardened neo-Nazis a story? Because I'm pretty sure it would be a five-alarm fire if Biden had done it

For product analyst roles, especially senior, frameworks for testing and experimentation seem critical. I know my way around experiments in my credit background but I want to beef it up, anyone have ideas for open source experiment creation and monitoring?

Anyone in private credit have any data sets / analysis ideas I could do to help showcase some skills?
Something similar to what I'm doing for consumer credit which is I'm building on an example portfolio and scoring model with the Prosper marketplace.
