Training all these models of different sizes, on changing datasets and running experiments have also revealed some challenges that I feel profs would never teach at a uni ML program

Like how to cleanly keep track of the gazillion runs

Yeah I can name them after layer dims and other stuff, but that's to me like trying to remember UUIDs

So I ended up choosing iso datestamp + petname, like 2026-02-15-flying-narwhal

If anyone has a convention that is easier on the brain and the eyes, I am all ears
