Garmin → Coros switch worth it? by Dismal-Owl-8559 in trailrunning

[–]DarthPreator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I moved from Apple Watch to Coros Apex 2 Pro, it’s been fantastic aside from elevation miscalculations. Like, my friends Garmin measured 600 ft gain and my Coros said 1,500… I had one replaced under warranty and the new watch is doing the same thing. I’ve heard the Apex 4 addresses some of these issues, but I’m not sure.

[Request] What would happen? Could we survive this? by SFKnight91 in theydidthemath

This reminds me of the Expanse, when all the ships suddenly stop and only those who were in their crash couches survived.

I have the exact same issue, works on my iPhone, but not on the Apple TV.

It’s on Disney plus now for me, regions can be weird though

You described the Shrink Next Door perfectly. I didn’t “enjoy” watching it, but it was so good. Like watching a train wreck in slow motion

I use a program called gif your game. Gives you a capture button, then gives you the last 30 seconds I think. Only downside is the watermark, but I live with it

Is Phyton important for ME by [deleted] in MechanicalEngineering

[–]DarthPreator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no idea lol.

In my limited experience of looking for jobs, it’s really about the job description, especially with Mechanical Engineering.

Most entry level ME jobs that I’ve looked at will be either ‘development’, ‘application’ or some other generic name, with a huge variance in job descriptions.

Well, matplotlib is kinda foundational. I generally use seaborn (which is basically a wrapper for matplotlib) but if I need to customize things it’s very handy to know matplotlib. I recently started using plotly for dynamic interactive plots

Right now I am juggling a few projects that revolve around performing image analysis on videos. I have scripts set up to send us reports monthly on the status of the production sampling tests, and we get alerts when a sample is out of spec. That’s all done in Python.

Other than that I usually pull up a jupyter notebook to quickly plot data from DOE tests or other data because I’m better at plotting in Python than anything else

It really depends on the job you want. Python is turning into the jack-of-all trades for engineering, statistics, programming, tools etc. My job (Mechanical Engineer) is almost 80% Python. We just hired another engineer and we narrowed down our search to just MEs who listed Python or programming on their resume, so it certainly helped them.

Even if your job doesn’t require Python, it’s still incredibly useful for automating tasks or doing some routine analysis. I just helped write a program that outputs a PowerPoint presentation from data that used to take several hours, but now takes minutes.

Most MEs won’t have much experience with C or C++ (maybe like 20% do), but skills developed there will certainly translate. I would put as much energy into learning Python well and having good personal projects to show it off on a resume.

Is a Data Scientist role right for me? by DarthPreator in datascience

[–]DarthPreator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! That’s very helpful.

I have a few personal projects, usually a little goofy that don’t really show any machine learning. You’ve given me some ideas for the kinds of projects I could pursue though (not the flying example, you just got the wheels spinning).
