Most crypto bros think that if they have not been tax compliant in their jurisdiction they are not able to cash-out. This is wrong. Sure there is the automatic exchange of information between your tax residency and your bank account, however if you plan on becoming tax compliant through a voluntary tax disclosure while you are preparing your compliance documentation for the bank. Amongst the crypto community it is very normal for people to have not declared their taxes, especially if they started early. As back in 2011, most people were not treating it as a serious investment most did not know where it would be today. When you are introduced to a private bank by a trusted third party, the bank is comfortable with you getting your new tax residency documentation after your account is opened or if you are becoming tax compliant through a voluntary tax disclosure as long as you are about to or in the process of becoming tax compliant you can open and cash-out before the taxes are due. Since the automatic exchange of information era, Swiss banks require some form of tax conformity from clients. What's poorly understood is what "conformity" can mean in practice. At certain institutions and this depends heavily on the bank, the jurisdiction, and the specific facts it does not have to mean "every past year already settled." It can mean the client is demonstrably in the process of becoming compliant: tax counsel engaged, a voluntary disclosure or regularization initiated, or a residency change properly sequenced, all with a paper trail. I've seen onboarding with Swiss private banks happen in parallel with a disclosure or a change in tax residency. Many people choose more tax friendly jurisdictions such as Monaco or Dubai. I have written a post about obtaining residency in Monaco with crypto origin wealth (private banks help you obtain residency): https://www.reddit.com/r/Monaco/s/6Ey0AJ5P04 Remember that even fully compliant holders struggle here everyone knows the frozen-funds and closed-account stories from retail off-ramps (CEX to retail bank at large volumes). That's precisely why people go to private banks, and why they don't show up empty-handed. The approach that gets through compliance committee at the bank is a professionally prepared source-of-wealth file: chronological origin-of-wealth narrative, wallet lists with proof of control, independent forensic screening, surviving records with gaps explained, where relevant, a concrete, documented process for fixing a tax situation that isn't currently in order as opposed to a vague intention to sort it out someday.. Important note: this is not "you don't need to pay tax," and it varies enormously by country and institution. None of it is tax, legal, or banking advice this situation requires actual advisers in the actual jurisdictions involved. submitted by /u/alt-co [link] [Kommentare]

Not necessarily the cheapest trade, but one where everything worked exactly as expected without delays, confusion, or extra steps. It feels like those transactions deserve appreciation because they don't happen as often as they should. submitted by /u/ResidentGur271 [link] [Kommentare]
i don’t have much experience with investing apart from an etf (which isn’t going well at all😭) and i wanna know what app/website to use, what’s safe but rewarding to invest in, etc. can someone help? submitted by /u/sugarch3rry [link] [Kommentare]
Every qlora tutorial on earth says start at 2e-4. Unsloth docs, hf examples, the paper itself. and for small datasets i now think that numbers is a trap. Where does 2e-4 come from? alpaca. 52k samples. cool, except most of us are fine tuning on 5-10k samples we scraped and labeled ourselves, not 52k. at that size the model overfits inside epoch one and then youre just watching training loss go down all pretty while eval lost sits there doing nothing. or climbs. I burned close to three weeks on this. recleaned the data set twice. rewrote the prompt template twice. spent on entire sunday hand relabeling rows while my flatmate watched football next to me (started with 8k rows, ended around 7200 after cutting garbage, i think, didnt log it properly). eval did not move. you you know what’s worse than a bad eval? seven identical bad evals in a row. Then i changed one number. 2e-4 down to 1e-4, epochs 3 to 5. eval jumped more than everything else combined. i sat there refreshing wandb thinking it was a fluke. three more runs, same story. And the annoying part, unsloth literally calls 2e-4 “a starting point” in their own docs. but every shared notebook has it hardcoded, zero comment. so people copy paste, get garbage, blame their data, blame their rank, lose a week. ask me how i know lol. My rule now. above 30k 2e-4 is probably fine. under 10k, start at 1e-4 or lower and add epochs. in between, actually tune it, its one number, takes an afternoon. If there’s real research defending flat 2e-4 on small data i want to read it. and if you all quietly figured this out in 2024 and never posted about it, im mad at every one of you individually. submitted by /u/Pretty-Ad774 [link] [Kommentare]
What is the shared structural essence that underlies a pair of MRI contrast spaces? Explicitly modeling this contrast-invariant latent “content” unlocks a powerful multi-contrast reconstruction algorithm that is competitive with state-of-the-art unrolled networks while: PnP-CoSMo: A plug-and-play framework for multi-contrast MRI reconstruction based on content/style modeling. The first stage learns the content/style model from purely image-domain data. The second stage freezes this model and applies it as a powerful prior in iterative reconstruction. Requiring no raw k-space training data (which is a serious data bottleneck in the ML-based MRI world), Being generalizable across different MR contrasts and forward operators by design, and Offering a built-in explanatory framework. In our paper now published in Medical Image Analysis, we introduce PnP-CoSMo.

I have been thinking of building a project where a robotic arm is controlled by a local VLM model. In my understanding I feed the VLM a 2D image of the object infront of the robot and query the vlm task like "grab the hammer" and VLM provides the 2D co-ordinates and then it goes to moveit and moveit plans the mission. I'm still at the vague idea state, any kind of input or reference or guide will be appreciated! Thank you in advance!! submitted by /u/LearnfromAsking [link] [Kommentare]
I love experimenting with different boards for computer vision and robotics :D And when a board labeled "Robotics board" appeared, I decided to investigate it. Previously, I tested Qualcomm, Intel, and a few other boards. And in my opinion, this one is pretty nice on this list. No, of course, all of them are worse than Jetson (except for the price part). But it's nice that vendors are increasingly considering this task. My full overview you can find here: Article - https://medium.com/@zlodeibaal/rdk-s100-review-80-tops-robotic-board-d9ad0f464942 Video - https://youtu.be/WHAEl05g8Xk A few highlights here: The S100 is genuinely fast. Especially for classic computer vision. It's not an "INT8" board, which I hate the most:) Pipelines are nice: Python bindings, easy export, good support of operations, etc. Nice extension board. With ~$ 30, you can add GMSL support and a CAN/30-pin header LeRobot support But of course: It's not "super cheap". Just "cheaper than NX" or "cheaper than Jetson with GMSL" Export is working for general policy. But it tends to fail for accurate actions where a few millimeters of accuracy is required. I am still investigating this Only ACT is supported from LeRobot submitted by /u/Wormkeeper [link] [Kommentare]

Me and a few online friends have had a telegram group for quite a while but have decided to move over to discord but have had issues lately with members becoming inactive since we migrated to discord. Im looking for friendly and serious traders and with serious i dont mean experienced, we would welcome anybody even if you are completely new and want to learn. We only abide by 3 simple rules. We treat eachother with respect(includes patience for inexperienced traders asking questions that might seem obvius to others) We tolerate no advertisement and/or sell/buy signals or any other kind of financial advice, just friendly discussions and share perspectives to develope our own strategies. With more experienced admins and a smaller closed knit group anybody trying to pull some sort of scam is banned INSTANTLY without discussion. This includes People sharing links to scam tokens/projects without knowing as we have no way to verify this and a safe and healthy community will always take priority over any one individual. We that admin the group has been around long enough to instantly recognize any attempts at scams and will put out warnings in the group when someone is banned under those circumstances. So I say this and please take it to heart and spare us all the time and inconvinience, there is an absolutely total waste of time trying to pull any scam in this group. Send me a PM or drop a comment if you want to join. :) submitted by /u/Putblug1856 [link] [Kommentare]
Did we miss the bottom? Im salty bcuz I thought the july 14th fed announcement would tank crypto down a peg or two and give me a better buy price but that didnt happen. How long before we have a chance for it to drop again, the end of July announcement? I feel like the USA resuming the war should also have tanked it but the opposite happened. So why did the beginning of the war tank crypto but not the resuming of the war pumps crypto? Also the huge buy walls institutions have on btc or eth seems pretty tough to go further down and meanwhile eth has run up so far i dont think its going back to the $1,500's price this run. So what does everyone think have we missed the bottom? submitted by /u/Frosty_Blueberry3418 [link] [Kommentare]
If your design is highly anisotropic and nonlinear, does that mean you should forget about it because it is too complex to model? With current sim-to-real training approaches, the ability to model interactions becomes increasingly important. The more complex the model, the less practical simulation becomes. Part of me completely understands the value of simpler designs. But I am still wondering whether we may sometimes dismiss designs now that could provide valuable mechanical behavior simply because they are more difficult to simulate. I am not sure whether this is ultimately helpful, or whether it creates constraints on the types of mechanical designs we are willing to develop. submitted by /u/GloomyCity9841 [link] [Kommentare]
