Day 3
summary
Day 3 packs practical takeaways: an insurance anomaly system uses unsupervised ML (robust PCA/autoencoder style), spends ~70% effort on feature engineering, reaches 84% of outliers detected and ships in R after 4–5 months; climate tech analysis pins 73% of emissions to energy and pushes solar + cheap storage (battery cost math: today ~\$70T to store a day, target ~$20/kWh), with nuclear discussed as baseline; VR/AR work stresses hand‑tracking and physics vs kinematic UX (Unity prototyping, holistic tests); Kotlin Multiplatform warns about strict native memory, coroutine limits and shows ~80% shared‑code wins after rework; Quake postmortem reveals brush editor tradeoffs, Pentium FDiv bug and brutal crunch.
