aht - Overview

Hi there 👋

😄 My work in the last 10 years focused on 3 areas: distributed system esp data DL/ML infrastructure, personalization and lately LLM and agents.

🌱 I’m looking to collaborate on SWE/ML/data for social good

😄 Pronouns: he/him

🔭 My active interest is reasoning agents and RL. I enjoy working with https://github.com/laude-institute/terminal-bench and https://github.com/laude-institute/harbor

🤾‍ Played with distributed deep learning https://github.com/adatao/tensorspark before Horovod, Ray or tf.distributed comes around. I was not a principal instigator in this project but I provided support & optimization.

🤾‍ I contributed to Golang in the early days, like 10 years ago :). It's an efficient sieve of Eratosthenes using CSP channels that Rob Pike wants to keep as a demo/test use case in the main source code as it's quite an interesting concurrent system https://github.com/aht/gosieve.

🤾‍ Some Python hacking back in the days while I had lots of free time fork-exec and pipe with I/O redirection, Lazily-evaluated, parallelizable Python pipeline, Agents and functions that modify Python sequences in-place

🤾‍ I wrote a toy LISP interpreter that support prefix/postfix & infix op just to annoy LISP people https://github.com/aht/olisp

🤾‍ An esoteric programming gem: a self-hosting Fractran interpreter in 84 fractions. This was one of those things for which the space available is really too small to explain everything...

🌱 I gave talk on "Visualization as Data and Data as Visualization" at Strata Hadoop World 2016. As a father of a little girl, I dived into a data-driven story about women stopping coding since the 80s and imagined a world where data & visualizations are easily sharable & infinitely collaborative.

🌱 I gave a talk on "Concurrent programming with Go" circa 2011

🌱 I gave a talk on "whatis git" the stupid content trackercirca 2012
