Hi, I'm Adel

I just graduated from NYU with a CS B.S. (and a Math minor), specializing in Computational Neuroscience. Because reading neural time-series data isn't painful enough, I do heavy software engineering and distributed systems work on the side.

When I have free time, I actively contribute to ray-project/ray or read big books that are hard to understand.


πŸ› οΈ My "Specialties"

  • Scalability over usability: If it doesn't require a distributed cluster to compute linear regression, I don't want it.
  • 103% CPU usage: Maximizing process efficiency by making my local cooling fans sound like a jet engine.
  • Running large jobs on login nodes: The ultimate life hack. Keeps my cluster fair-share (sshare) metric low while ruining the day for everyone else SSH'd into the cluster.
  • AI force push and pray: Letting my AI fix my colleagues AI slop code.
  • Fudging ML accuracy at all costs: Tuning is expensive, so I optimize performance by seamlessly leaking my training data directly into my test validation loop.
  • Always merging local fixes: If it works on my machine's specific hardcoded path layout, it's ready for production.
  • Stating "STEM is dead": Considering to switch to painting, but still finishing my math problem sets and manually debugging dependencies until 3:00 AM.
