I suck at staying in touch with people. So much that I'm planning to build an app, where I can make a list of contacts I care about and it'd notify me if I didn't speak to someone for a long time.I want to keep it simple for the everyday user. However, I think I can add more features. One feature I thought was regarding gifting. Make a note of what each person is into in the form of tags. Say...
I'm trying to decide between ML PhD at 5-10 CS school (in USA) and RE at FAANG (It is one of the applied teams and not pure research teams like FAIR/Google Brain)If going to industry is eventual goal, which of these two options is preferable?ML PhD - Highly reputed but takes 5 years to finish. Not sure if the effort + wait is worth the reward. RE - Might not be cutting edge work. Focus is still...

About me: I'm a Master's student studying Machine learning at Georgia Tech. This summer, I've interned at Apple Siri in language modelling team as a Research Intern. Prior to this, I worked at Oracle (Redwood City, HQ) as a senior developer on C++ query engine and did my Bachelor's from IIT Bombay, India. I've also cofounded a Blockchain CDN startup in the past and worked on it for about an year (Always excited to work at startups!)
Interested in opportunities involving Computer Vision, Machine Learning, and NLP.

Don't people from facebook see this'd increase the already existing polarization and information bubbles?
I'm thinking of creating a new AI powered note-taking app which has features like 'auto suggest', 'search using natural language', 'asking natural language question to get answer using notes as knowledge base ', etc.What other features would you like to see?PS: Suggest your wildest feature request.
On a similar note, dunkin serves light roasts. I'd presume they also want consistency?
1. Sourcing quality beans is costly. 2. Majority of the people don't care.
For 1 - For a single coffee shop, quality of beans is not the most significant part of price. They can increase ~10c per cup and get much better quality of coffee[0]. However, this might be tough as Starbucks need to source same beans across the world.
For 2 - Following 1, if you only need to increase 10c, and get significantly better coffee, why won't you do it? You're already the leader in 3rd spaces, why not be a leader in coffee too, for a much better moat?
For researchers who've founded a company before -How would you approach your PhD if you want to start a company during/after your PhD? How would this influence the choice of advisor you choose, schools you pick, etc?For background: I'm applying for a PhD in ML (NLP to be specific) and am actively thinking about this question
Majority of coffee fans say their local coffee shops make better coffee than starbucks. If that's so, why doesn't starbucks, with all it's money and resources become better than local coffee shops. What is it missing?
