Continuing the conversation from the other thread; Question to our PM folks on here, is CSM (Certified Scrum Master) certification worthwhile at all? I'm seeing Agile come up a LOT in job postings. Just want to get a feel before I plop down a grand on the 4 day training.

I mean... yes? I hate agile for non-tech companies but that's the vogue right now and having more letters to do with it after your name is a good thing.

It can be, but you can also get that training for way less than $1k and 4 days. This training provider is one we have used a lot for agile stuff.

That being said, if you're not applying for a scrum master position I honestly don't know how important it is or people even looking at it.

Great, thanks guys!

Nvidia is now the most valuable company in the world.

I been trying to figure out how the Nvidia/LLM/AI bubble is going to burst, cause it shapes my investment strategy.

1. Another chip company (or 2) have a breakthrough that makes their chips in this one specific way comparable or competitive with Nvidia. People locked out of the Nvidia market, avoiding vendor lock-in, or for price competitiveness reasons, move to the new companies.
2. Something blows up the current meta. Some major scandal, governmental regulations that severely limit growth or research in these fields, war in Taiwan.
3. ???

I don't want to invest in Nvidia any further than I already have but I think we're going to look up in 3-5 years and discover that we were thinking about this wrong. I think the market as a whole is going to increase, while after a certain point Nvidia's slice of it is going to shrink (it may continue to increase for the next 1-3 years).

[Krandor]

Number 1 is not happening anytime in the foreseeable future. Nvidia is so far ahead as is, and any kind of parallel processing task (ie machine learning) is more often than not specifically optimized for their hardware because they're so much better at it.

[Outlaw]

4. Amass as much Nvidia stock as possible. Sell it to some mega millionaire fool when the price reaches $500 or something crazy.

Their stock price is absolutely over valued though, that's no secret. In no world should Nvidia have a higher market cap then Microsoft

should doesn't really matter. Morons chasing lines up will forever be the market.

To those that were looking at getting their PMP, udemy has deep discounts on trainings that a lot of folks are recommending. I would jump on them now:
