Podcast appearances and mentions of zach mueller

Colab is cozy. But production won't fit on a single GPU. Zach Mueller leads Accelerate at Hugging Face and spends his days helping people go from solo scripts to scalable systems. In this episode, he joins me to demystify distributed training and inference — not just for research labs, but for any ML engineer trying to ship real software. We talk through: • From Colab to clusters: why scaling isn't just about training massive models, but serving agents, handling load, and speeding up iteration • Zero-to-two GPUs: how to get started without Kubernetes, Slurm, or a PhD in networking • Scaling tradeoffs: when to care about interconnects, which infra bottlenecks actually matter, and how to avoid chasing performance ghosts • The GPU middle class: strategies for training and serving on a shoestring, with just a few cards or modest credits • Local experiments, global impact: why learning distributed systems—even just a little—can set you apart as an engineer If you've ever stared at a Hugging Face training script and wondered how to run it on something more than your laptop: this one's for you.

This episode we speak to Zach Mueller, an Amazon Data Scientist and co-Founder of Sound.Bio, Seattle's first DIY Biohackspace. We wanted to hear about how they aim to build a community around biology, the challenges of setting up the lab, and the efforts they go to to educate Seattleites in modern biotech. Zach comes to biology with little experience, in fact he was drawn to the field after listening to a podcast that spoke about IGEM, the synthetic biology competition for undergraduate teams. This idea of arriving at the lab with a minimal background in the science, is what these biohackspaces are all about. They're a place where you can experiment with experimenting, learn new skills, and join a community that is committed to producing value through biotech. The space itself is kitted out with the kinds of tools you would expect in order to carry out modern biology experiments. However, the lab is also keen to leverage the skills and resourcefulness of the maker community, to really hammer home the important concept that biology doesn't have to be restricted to the confines of a university. Or perhaps more importantly, that participating in biology is not simply the reserve of institutions with pockets deep enough to purchase the latest tech.

Jonathon leads a roundtable about getting involved with local data science projects with the Data for Democracy volunteers who organized meetups in cities around the country for the community’s first hackathon. Thanks to Nic Colley, Daniela, Mark Stephenson, Dave Mattingly, Stephanie Kirmer, Gabriela Swider, and Zach Mueller for joining the...
