A lot of them retired too and enjoyed making bank producing a pile of hot mess that the rest of the higher ups did not fully appreciate the mess they were producing. Collected their multi million packages and left


Tell me more about what your day looks like. What do you think of the LLMOps books from Abi, in case you have read it ? Any other resources you can recommed?


where can i learn more about what you know (besides LLMs): books, wikis etc. ? For reference, I have a ok-to-mediumish background in image signal processing.


What are some of the SDN open source software that is still useful today ? e.g. ODL, ONOS, Ryu, Floodlight


ONOS is being used with VOLTHA to enable PON networking in various locations (For example DT in Germany: https://convergedigest.com/deutsche-telekom-taps-open-source... , and IIRC it's also in production in Turkey).

There was a Comcast deployment to trial ONOS + whitebox switches a while ago.

The specific interplay of commercial deployment to open source vs commercial closed source in the networking space was better described in this post from Larry Peterson: https://systemsapproach.org/2022/02/28/venn-diagram-engineer...


what do y'all think of this given the recent activities


Microsoft being Microsoft. Of course they have to say they're going to do more. The reality is when you offer essentially infinite backwards compatibility, you attract companies that have zero desire to invest in their digital infrastructure and software.

Put another way, Microsoft seems happy to sell people the rope they use to inadvertently hang themselves with. Software is infrastructure, and safe and correctly maintained infrastructure is expensive. Corporations are externalizing machines, so we all bear the cost of poorly made software. Cybersecurity as an industry would be 90% smaller if software development wasn't "move fast and break things" and more "let's get this 100% right, formally verify what we can, test it for months and then release it."

Anyone who thinks Microsoft is anything but entirely complicit in making the world a significantly less secure place is either woefully ignorant or a fool.


> essentially infinite backwards compatibility

Maybe you should do some research. /s


"Your privacy is very important for us" when they suck all your data with Edge.


Since you're on this thread..who normally runs the investment decisions inside of a bank, whether retail or investment. Is there a CIO office or is that the function of their Treasury department? Does it go by other names?

And in your experiences in 2008, what sort of strategy planning/what if scenarios were being played out since it was unprecedented and no one knew what was going to happen the next day


I wish I knew more about the Montreal area


There is a field of study called Mechatronics that combined Mechanics and Electronics though that is not the only path

For more hobbyist stuff, join the Lego FIRST competitions though note that the Mindstorms product line has been recently discontinued though Educators may still be able to obtain the Spike set. Look into open source ROS operating system

E.g. control engineers can also get into robotics and it's better not to havea more broad degree in my humble opinion


I teach a robotics class and we use the Legos and it was super fufilling indeed (too bad mindstorms is being discontinued by the way)


With the deaths and displacements, there's also an estimated $10 billion of damages ready
