I worked for Capital One in the late 90's and they made ALL employees take some customer service calls.☎️
It was ALWAYS a positive in helping everyone at the company understand customers better.👍
💰 My comp would be $1.3M/yr if I was still with NVDA 😞
Absolutely hated being on the Omniverse team but perhaps I should have quiet-quit like so many of my peers had 🤔
I'm a Google TPM (technical program manager) and I've completely backed off pushing anyone for milestones or deadlines right now.
I'm into "enabler mode", helping people where they need it. Keeping busy is good and many people want to work.

The exclusive to Netflix was a bad call IMO.
I remember the privacy team at Google pushing back on Project Tango/ AR Core making maps of your home: "how can we make this completely uninteresting to the FBI?"
Government requests were a huge burden in 2014 and I'll bet it's even worse now. Kudos to Apple for this path.

To test a safety system for a lethal vehicle like this is beyond acceptable. FSD should be halted.
Seeing some issues with 10.3, so rolling back to 10.2 temporarily.
Please note, this is to be expected with beta software. It is impossible to test all hardware configs in all conditions with internal QA, hence public beta.
Neural Radiance Factorization (NeRFactor) is pushing NeRF into next level territory.

This tech is still "researchy" but in 1-2 years, every game engine or product from Adobe & Autodesk, is going to need to figure out their "neural representation" story.
🫡 All done for the day as I say farewell to NVIDIA 🟢
🤝 Met a lot of awesome people that I hope to cross paths with again. Now it's time for a Summer break 🌴 and then onto new adventures 🧭
