i believe in these people so much after rehearsals i just knew every single person in this room would come away with some form of inspiration have spent 8 months being the most excited person in the world for March 21-22, it has been wonderful to see others share in my excitement today 🫢🏼

there are so many talented UWaterloo engineers who are doing at least one Shopify internship interns are great because they build out your talent network not all will stay - but good experiences mean you have loyalists embedded within the entire tech industry that's why YC is bringing in so many teams, and the same reason consulting firms have year 1 exit plans
Everyone thinks AI is killing junior engineering jobs β€”Β it's not. We're are hiring another 1,000 engineering interns this year @ShopifyEng Interns have always brought hunger, curiosity, intensity and now they bring their brains and an LLM. Why wouldn't you want to infect your company with AI centaurs? I spoke with @CoderPad on why the junior engineers who understand AI deeply enough to know when to use it and when to not use it are the ones I'm hiring first. Not last.

computationally designed optimized sequences for an anti-inflammatory therapeutic using Cursor/Claude stack and open docking models stronger predicted receptor 1 antagonism than published empirical truncations (Zheng, 2016) active receptor 2 repulsion for avoidance of downstream side-effects anti-TNF therapies are effective at treating IBD and Crohn's, yet no receptor-selective drugs exist in a $42B market

4) cross-validated using molecular dynamics simulations with MM-PBSA both position these variants above HSN10 (leading empirical design)

V14 in particular combined TNFR1 preference with a practical synthesis profile ultimately these are just theoretical predictions - but it does present a case for experimental validation using SPR and wet-lab

waterloo 1st year btw
I implemented @GoogleResearch's TurboQuant as a CUDA-native compression engine on Blackwell B200. 5x KV cache compression on Qwen 2.5-1.5B, near-loseless attention scores, generating live from compressed memory. 5 custom cuTile CUDA kernels ft: - fused attention (with QJL corrections) - online softmax -on-chip cache decompression - pipelined TMA loads Try it out: devtechjr.github.io/turboqua… s/o @blelbach and the cuTile team at @nvidia for lending me Blackwell GPU access :) cc @sundeep @GavinSherry

waterloo might just be the epicenter of cool projects
we celebrated our makers with the help of @claudeai. here’s what they’ve been building with it!
