Curious about this too, I don’t see much here but might be because of chronological feed or I’m just not following the right people

That entry level job market is going to be sobering

Couldn’t agree more - only poor options to be found here unfortunately. Hoping improvements are coming, but until then it’s a lot of long breaks away from the phone

Have you considered the OnlyPosts feed?

Yeah I think pyenv did that for me when I used it, it lets you pick a python version and set a global default (or manually activate a different one). If you haven’t nuked your computer yet, you can at least use ‘uv python list’ to see what’s installed and do some cleanups

What are you trying to do? uv kind of assumes you want to use venv for stuff and know how to activate those or use an IDE that can detect it. If you want some global python install then you have stuff like conda and pyenv

This whole time I’ve been learning Bayesian inference to detect biased coins and it turns out you can just look at it instead

You can run R in quarto and source() what you need I think

What book is this? The only other time I've seen the 'talent/skill tree' view is in Mathematics for Machine Learning (mml-book.github.io) and I wish we saw more of that view!

I guess I don't have a specific text I can share - you probably already have this, but the chapter in probml2 (Probabilistic ML - Advanced Topics) by Kevin Murphy that covers them as an intro to SSM is my other go-to probml.github.io/pml-book/boo...

And I like this paper, discusses HMM and state space models and Bayesian networks - mlg.eng.cam.ac.uk/zoubin/paper...

Here’s an interactive intro: nipunbatra.github.io/hmm/

It’s important to budget time for yak shaving

The quiet posters feed seems to be the best bet, otherwise everything just gets drowned out with people reacting to news

Maybe an initial assignment could be around critiquing the LLM output based on something the student knows well or is an expert in. Like how you listen to certain podcast hosts and once you hear them talking about your field of expertise you realize they have no idea what they’re talking about
