  • Personally, I want to see the removal of capitalism, as it is a terrible system, alongside other oppressive systems like the State. Because that doesn’t happen overnight, and it isn’t something congress would ever vote on, I support strong social systems, high taxes on the wealthy and corporations, strong environmental protections, and especially legislation that strengthens communities. Strong worker protections and benefits wouldn’t be bad to see either.




  • I’m not an expert at ML or cardiology, but I was able to create models that could detect heart arrhythmias with upwards of 90% accuracy, higher accuracy than a cardiologist, and do so much faster.

    Do I think AI can replace doctors? No. The amount of data needed to train a model is immense (granted I only had access to public sets), and detecting rarer conditions was not feasible. While AI will beat cardiologists in this one aspect, making predictions is not the only thing a cardiologist does.

    But I think positioning AI as a tool to assist in triage, and to provide second opinions could be a massive boon for the industry.



  • I have a love hate relationship with C. I love the simplicity of the language. Although it is simpler, it is certainly possible to emulate many features found in other languages like the encapsulation, though rarely perfectly, and not every feature.

    I also like C because I am dealing with code at a lower level leads me to having a much better understanding of what is happening under the hood. However, this lower level access allows you to accidentally write bad code that could introduce a vulnerability
