Yes, not saying this is bad at all, just kind of funny. When you think about it it makes sense though. Why wouldn't want someone have a possibility to distribute an efficient engine.

Looks like we are approaching the "distributed" phase of the distributed-centralized computing cycle :) Not saying this is bad, but it's just interesting to see after being in the industry for 8 years.

Why don't you just try it? Having a parse-able CV is definitively the most important criterion for your CV though. Ypu don't have to worry about anything else if it's not parse-able '

Ure, if you don't see yourself coding at all or doing technical work, doing consulting in an unrelated things is perfectly fine. I guess it's easier if you already got some experience in the field but at the end of the day the onl

It was okay. I first realized that freelancing might be an option after I was approached by someone on Linkedin to help them with a project and then I had little success with getting more projects but for 2024 I have been booked most of the

I feel you to some extent. I love the challenges and problem-solving but the actual coding part becomes less interesting over time. I am not quite as far along my career as you but after three failed startup ideas I decided to do freelancin

Can you provide some more information on what you have worked with? I find that a lot of people coming from research over-emphasize their research and down-play the engineering side of things that they also had to do in order to do meaningf

How does this surprise anyone? Medical data for AI training is almost always sources in some more or less shady country because they lack any privacy regulations. It's then annotated by a hoard of cheap workers who may or may not have

More often than not by working a full-time job somewhere else. Besides that, there are support contracts, sponsorships and stuff like that, but I'd say there are not a lot of people able to live from that alone.

For an MVP a SQLite database will probably be good enough, too. You make some good points! Alternatively, go rent a virtual server for a couple bucks a months somewhere

by ogarten 2y ago
Keep it as simple as possible. Lambdas and all the serverless stuff is great until it isn't anymore, because you need another service for this and another service for that which gets a) complex quickly and b) expensive, too. For an MVP

This is great and matches my observations, too. The people who have some kind of system in their work or life in general are usually the ones ahead of others. Systems allow efficiency and they just get so much more stuff done compared to ot

It doesn't matter if you are an indie hacker, a freelance or a VC-backed startup founder. You need to talk to (potential) users to understand their needs and problems and offer a solution to that. In the whole indie hacker community it

I am not running a SaaS Platform but I have tried to start several startup so I do have some experience but take it with a grain of salt. All SaaS that I have seen have some sort of user tracking (mixpanel, amplitude, posthog, ...) which tr

So, you got an UI and a backend and the backend more or less makes HTTP(?) requests to other services? The easiest way to secure the application is probably to use API keys or HTTP Basic Auth to get some basic security. How is your frontend

1st of all: sounds incredibly controlling. They could also work on things in their free time and to be honest, as long as they do their work you shouldn't need to care. You only buy 8h of their time usually. Camera off: Oh shit, I don&

A good college should teach students how to solve problems and how to think. The major is only a part of that. Computers will likely be around a long time. Computer Science programs also teach AI and all that fancy new stuff. What else woul

Mh, I guess you got a point. I still stand with what I said more or less though. While you don‘t always need formal maths it gets much easier when you have a formal education in the field.

Makes a lot of sense from an investment perspective. Essentially only one of these companies needs to become really big to make it worth. The ones losing out here are the founders most likely.

This is a broad question. AI/ML needs a math-heavy background and also a lot of domain knowledge to make any sense. I think the best path for software engineers to go into data is via data engineering or MLOps or whatever it is called
