TL:DR How do you find labs/centres working on your area of interest ?

I started reading DL research papers a few months ago. Before that I used solely mooc materials or textbooks. I have found that reading every recent paper from a topic is not possible and discovering decent projects is almost impossible.

Recently I discovered : HanLab e.g. https://hanlab.mit.edu/projects/ofa/

It's decent but finding these kind of labs seems difficult. I couldn't find it listed on any MIT website. Stumbled upon it link to link.

I have seen some folks selling their PKM databases on gumroad. Usually using Roam Research. I think its a wonderful way to learn about some topic or discover new subjects. Think of it as an ever growing online encyclopedia. Imagine crowd sourced databases about biotech, defi & other topics. Are there any existing solutions?

I am desperately looking for some good source for readings on governance, public policy, modern urban planning, some "contrarian" climate solutions etc.

Recently my whole twitter feed is filled with ppl announcing moving to Miami from SF. As an outsider I only knew about Silicon Valley and followed eminent ppl from tech and VC.

What's going on? Is this a "mass migration"? Something ideological? A movement? Is this about Joe Rogan moving to Austin and Tesla leaving California?

How will this effect tech and innovation in US and the world?

what it is, i mean, what's stopping you from making the next google search?

Tf-Idf? No. Just kidding. Infromation retrieval, text mining, ML/DL ?! what is going on with this field ! Every other resource seems outdated? What is the state of art ?
