I'm working on a Kaggle challenge, predicting pediatric sepsis 6 hours early, and I'm learning so much about the clinical side of this problem. Today, I made 3 baseline models, and the results are nice. Here's the breakdown on a 20k test set: 1. SIRS (Old Rule): The 90s
AUROC vs AUPRC: I'm working on a sepsis prediction model, and I made the baseline model last night. Results: AUROC = 0.95 🥳 AUPRC = 0.54 😔 Since the training data is highly imbalanced (~2% positive sepsis cases), AUPRC is a better evaluation metric. Unlike AUROC, which plots

I’ve been trying my hand at LLM eval, and I’m just mashing buttons until something works.

So, I applied for a grant for this work, and it was accepted 2 weeks ago. But the paper was already submitted and accepted for publication back then. Now they’re asking me to acknowledge the funding… in a paper that’s already published. What? 😭
I’m officially a published author, guys. 🥹💫 My conference paper is now on IEEE Xplore, but I still can't believe it. It's still day 1, though. https://t.co/4LhH1LzGdX

Help. This just reminded me of my New Year’s resolution to go skiing. 💀
got fitted with rental snow equipment. i've never seen cold gear made for temperatures this low before. apparently the boots are good all the way to -40C. i'm thankful it's overkill for us on this trip 🙌

I forgot to renew my free Cursor plan for students, and it was cancelled. I switched to Copilot and was about to pay for the Pro plan, and this came up. 😝 Cursor 0 - Me 1

I'm training a model locally for the first time, and this is me waiting for it to finish. At least my heating bill will be lower this month.

I’m too curious for my liking but something that has been on my mind lately is, if you order groceries on @Trendyol they first charge you 1tl. Then charge the difference after delivery. Why? What if I have a single use card? What’s the business logic?

I impulsively picked up a bottle of wine to have with my dinner. Time to eat, and I realized I don’t have a corkscrew(?). Dinner is cold, I’m irritated and I can’t figure out the fork trick.

Last night I wrote a report for my ethics class on Michael Sandel's "Justice" video. It was a bit open-ended, so I wrote about the trolley problem as something we face every day. Example: Terrorism and AI Slop. - AI slop is the transplant surgeon's problem: sacrificing the

Harvard got bombed and it’s not even a major news item. It was like this in the early 70s. There was a bombing every day and it didn’t seem unusual to people. Days of Rage talks about this.

Quick update: I’ve been intentional about making friends who work in different fields. In the past 2 months, I’ve learnt quite a lot of stuff ranging from finance to logistics. I’m happy and recommend it to you all. Life is too short to care about just one thing.
Recently, I have been wondering if my life is a bubble of tech people. Last week, someone called me because they needed help changing the background of a picture, and I said, "Oh, just use Gemini or ChatGPT," and they were shocked, which in turn shocked me. 99% of the people I
