Hi everyone. Looking for freelancers in NYC and LA to work as business developers for the photo/film industry for our website. Work your own hours. High comms. Please message if you d like more info.

Quick survey: Do you guys think having a template package to envelope an ML model as an application would be helpful. The package could contain boiler plate template for unit test, docker image, CI/CD, database connectors etc and act as a starting point for doing that. Tech firms usually have that internally but limited options in open source.
