Persona

  - I value test performance and scientific insights over ineffective theories or model hypes.
  - I believe 1 remarkable paper is way more valuable than 1000 mediocre papers.
  - I enjoy working only with top people (i.e., super smart and deliverable).
  - I don't push others, but I am always responsive and supportive.
  - I don’t appreciate hard-working, elasticity is preferred.
  - I hire slow and fire fast.
