I'm an engineer at my company but when people come to visit I always give them an ocular patdown. It has never failed me.


I am single but most of my co-workers have kids. I work at a small startup and work hour flexibility is huge for me. Generally, as long as my work gets done and I don't miss meetings I am free to work my own hours within reason. For example, if I know there is a big snow storm coming I'll take a day or two off work with just a day's notice to ski. But then I'll work over the weekend. I think this only works because all of our employees are very dedicated and motivated. Once we grow think might need to change a little.


I agree. I remember doing my basic certification. 1/3 of the class almost failed just from the test that requires you to take your mask off underwater then put it back on and clear it. The second they closed their eyes while underwater they would freak out.


I do the same. I usually watch all lecture videos at 1.5x or 2x speed. Saves me tons of time which is good because usually to videos are of random interesting topics that are distracting me from work.


I have zero experience in web development so I decided to start a self project to learn some of the basics of front-end and back-end development and server management. So I created a home server to host machine learning capabilities.

I set up a Linux web server with an Angular front end that users can create an account and log in. From there they can use the web UI to design and create deep neural networks. Currently it supports autoencoder, fully connected, convolution, and a host of other network layers. The user can also upload data and train the network. The server hosts a nVidia GTX1080 GPU to train and run the network. The website was served using Flask and Tensorflow was used to create the networks. Successful models could also be deployed as an API endpoint.

My final solution wasn't very scalable but I learned a lot from it!


Have you looked into adding navigation / mapping / and comms to your dive computer? My company has a side project building a dive watch for divers. It has a navigation system and communications aspect where divers can send messages to each other and track a dive buddy's position. The project is mostly for fun but there is a market for it.


How do they track position? I know that (eg) GPS and Bluetooth don't work under water (or at least their range is so bad that they aren't useful). Seems like an interesting problem!


You are right! It is a very hard and interesting problem. Radio will not work underwater. Inertial/mag sensors can be small and cheap but the quality is poor. Therefore I have been using some 'intelligent' (hate to use that word these days) processing of the data. It is still a relative position estimate if you can minimize the drift you are good to go. To help, we have communications between divers using acoustics. Using some cleaver DSP techniques and information sharing between divers you can do a lot.


I suffer greatly in coding interview questions. I'm not a kick-ass full-stack engineer but rather a research engineer. I code every day but usually it is proof-of-concept demonstrations so I lack formal education / guidance of many professional coders. I'll knock a take home assignment out of the park but I do envy people who are great coders.
