Event: Real (Scary) ML deployment stories

You might expect to see useful (and scary) cases of C-like code in Java (and JVM memory leaks), recompiling libraries just to increase performance two fold,
batching tricks and GPU magic ( on example where each word consists of the different number of subword units and you want to pool those representations).
Vlado might also discuss weird internal workings of matrix multiplication, convolutions and RNNs.
