Here in DC we have a "Papers We Love" meetup. There's some very dedicated core organizers who end up doing the lions share of the presenting, and while I am absolutely here for anyone to show up & talk about yet-more ML, the challenge has been thrown to open up & talk about other things, from someone so motivated.
I want to sign up to present some cool papers, to talk about more general computing topics. This is a fun read, & I really appreciate having a great papers i/we love post like this. I'm still trying to find my way to being useful for this community I love, and this is a good solid example.
> First off, I love the vision of gg. It promises a vision of the “best of both worlds” for local and cloud computing: You get the low latency and full control of keeping source control and data files locally, and running a local editor, filesystem, terminal, and such, combined with the full compute power of the cloud so that your builds or test runs are lightning fast, and don’t destroy your battery or make your fans sound like a jet aircraft.
It also touches on some really interesting mixed CI/CD things I've heard out of Facebook/Meta, where code is semi-ambiently slurped up to the mothership & ci/cd just runs, without anyone necessarily asking for it or making commits. I keep wanting to hear more, to know more details, and I'm not sure how "real" my understanding is. But I love the concept at least. And wish I could at least cite where the idea was introduced to me.
