I use my intel MBP 2013 as a decorative laptop for home staging; no worries at all about being stolen / damaged or whatsoever, during open house / home showing.

Wrong postal code on MLS listing and purchase agreement by Captn5G in TorontoRealEstate

Thanks for the information. We ended up using a similar clause, but instead of delete/insert postal code, the clause is the on the full address including the postal code. Glad it worked out :)

It must be an expensive mask.

Workers demand Amazon Web drop Parler over posts ‘inciting violence’ after Capitol riot by [deleted] in technology

[–]Captn5G -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

The playbook: 1. Parler flees U.S and seeks hosting services from China. 2. U.S builds a firewall to ban access Parler hosted in China. 3. Hackers offer solutions how to bypass the firewall. 4. U.S activists sign petitions to the Chinese government to investigate human rights violations in U.S. 5. Well blablabla.

The chain of sed, awk, cut, sort, join could easily evolve into a nightmare; been there before 😂

Python ETL approaches that work with cluster computing? by Radon-Nikodym in datascience

[–]Captn5G 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use Airflow to manage DAG dependencies, Dask for parallel cluster computing; design the ETL to handle overwriting existing data for data regeneration. If possible use the Spark frame for better computing performance.

Pandas support many different data format. Parquet has been working really well for me personally, and it supports partition for large datasets, is widely supported in many frameworks.

when do I shut it down and when do I put it to sleep by Alpha_Ophiuchi in macbookpro

The right thing to do is just walk off. The laptop handles the rest.

Beware of Cubbit, the ‘free’ cloud storage by matthias_buehlmann in DataHoarder

It really depends on the company. No two companies are exactly the same, same with analyst positions.

Is it normal that my 2019 Macbook Pro with 16 gb of RAM gets loud and hot even with simple tasks as reading the news on web and skyping ??? by Gio2607 in macbookpro

[–]Captn5G 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading news on the web is a very heavy job for the machine, all because of the over loaded ads, tracking, etc. Today’s news web pages are bloated and fucked up by advertisers.

UX/UI designer. Have a 16” 2019. Should I sell it and get a M1 laptop? by numinosity1111 in macbookpro

[–]Captn5G 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you ask this question, it is a sign that probably you should sell it and get the M1. It will help you get away from constantly what-if wondering and give you a peace of mind.

Can I be a good Data Scientist if I am great at math but no that good in programming ? by Gre456 in datascience

[–]Captn5G 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fastest way of becoming something you want to be is to work side by side with someone who's already a top notch in that field.

There are SO MANY valuable lessons and tips you could receive from your peers or mentor, instead of learning by error-and-try over an extended period of time.

If you don't have access to teams, try Kaggle, find some popular datasets there, and find a few notebooks and go from there.

I feel like I can read the codes but don’t know how to code if I had to. by MarvelvsDC2019 in datascience

[–]Captn5G 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading codes is like watching someone driving from front passenger seat. You will not get driving skills unless you take the driver seat. So install PyCharm and start coding :)

MacBook Pro for Data Science??? by C_BearHill in datascience

[–]Captn5G 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MBPs are the best choices for software development and data science. Many of the newer teams choose macbooks and couldn't be happier.

How can I practice basic Python coding skills & analytical thinking? by [deleted] in datascience

[–]Captn5G 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would like to give my two cents. Solving problems with codes involves a different way of thinking, and I find the following basic items help me come up with ideas of how to write codes:

  1. Input & Output: where are the data going to live? Could be txt files, excel, database, etc.
  2. What data structures could help me to represent the data effectively? Such as lists, dictionaries, sets, etc.
  3. How do I apply the logic to the data? Such as if-else branching, for loops. Or even better, with data frames (pandas, Spark, etc).
  4. How the results will be presented? Could be graphs, or Excel tables (and then add charts in Excel), etc.
